　　10 Pip and Herbert talk about love

　　I returned¹ to London， dreaming² of the beautiful girl， now a woman， who had³ so influenced⁴ my childhood，and who， I hoped⁶， would⁷ share⁸ my future⁹ life¹⁰． I am sorry to say I did¹¹ not think about dear， good Joe at all． I felt I had to ex－press my feelings¹³ to someone¹⁴， and so that evening I told Herbert my secret¹⁶．

　　Instead¹⁷ of being¹⁸ surprised¹⁹， as²⁰ I expected²¹， my friend replied²²，

　　‘I know that already²³， Handel．You never told me， but it was²⁵ obvious²⁶．You've always loved Estella．It's very lucky²⁷ that you seem²⁸ to have been chosen to marry²⁹ her．Does she， er，admire you？’

　　I shook³⁰ my head sadly³¹．‘Not at all． And Herbert， you may think me lucky．I have great expectations，I know．But all that depends³² on one person³³！ And I still don't really know how much I'll receive³⁴， or when！ Nothing is certain³⁵！’

　　‘Now， Handel，'said³⁶ Herbert cheerfully，‘don't lose³⁸ hope⁵．Mr Jaggers himself³⁹ told you you would have a large fortune，didn't he？ He would never make a mistake⁴⁰ about something like that．Anyway⁴¹， you'll be twenty－one soon．Perhaps⁴² you'll discover⁴³ more then．’

　　‘Thank you，Herbert！’ I said， feeling¹² much better．

　　‘But I want to ask you something， my dear Handel，'said Herbert，looking serious⁴⁴ for once．‘Think of Estella， and her education⁴⁵， and how unhappy⁴⁶ you may be with her．Couldn't you possibly-and I'm saying⁴⁷ this as a friend， remember-couldn't you forget about her？’

　　‘I know you're right， Herbert，’I said miserably，‘but I can never stop loving⁴⁸ her．’

　　‘Well， never mind⁴⁹！'said Herbert．‘Now I have something to tell you myself⁵⁰． I am engaged⁵¹．’

　　‘May I ask the young lady's name？’

　　‘Clara．Her mother's dead⁵²， and she lives with her father．We must keep our feelings for each other secret， because I haven't enough money to marry her yet⁵³． As soon as I start in－suring ships we can marry．’Herbert tried to look hopeful⁵⁴ about his future， but this time he couldn't even¹⁵ manage⁵⁵ his usual⁵⁶ cheerful³⁷ smile．

　　One day I received⁵⁷ a letter which made⁵⁸ my heart⁵⁹ beat⁶⁰ fast．

　　‘I am coming to London the day after tomorrow by the mid-day coach⁶¹．Miss Havisham wants you to meet me．

　　Estella．’

　　If there had been time，I would have ordered⁶² several⁶³ new suits⁶⁴．I ate⁶⁵ nothing until⁶⁶ the day arrived， and all morning I waited impatiently⁶⁷ for the coach．She seemed⁶⁸ more beautiful than ever²⁴， and her manner⁶⁹ to me was very pleasant⁷⁰， as I took⁷¹ her to the house in London where Miss Havisham had arranged⁷² for her to stay． Her life seemed to be planned⁷⁴ by Miss Havisham right down to the smallest detail⁷⁵．I only hoped I was part⁷⁶ of that plan⁷³．

　　10 匹普和赫伯特谈论爱情

　　我回到伦敦，梦见那个漂亮的姑娘，一个对我童年产生重大影响的女人，我希望和这位姑娘分享我未来的生活。我很抱歉地说，亲爱的好人乔在我心目中早已化为泡影了，我觉得必须向别人表达我的感情。因此，那天晚上，我把秘密告诉了赫伯特。

　　当期望着我的朋友回答时，我大吃一惊。

　　“我已经知道了，汉德尔。你从来没有告诉我，但那是显而易见的。你总是爱着艾丝黛拉，看起来你选择她和你结婚，真是十分幸运的。是她，呃，喜欢你吗？”

　　我伤心地摇摇头，“一点也不喜欢，赫伯特，你可以认为我幸运，我有一个远大前程，我知道。但是，所有一切都靠的是一个人！我仍然搞不明白我到底会得到多少，会到什么时候！事事都拿不准！”

　　“喂，汉德尔，”赫伯特高兴地说，“不要丧失信心，贾格斯先生他自己告诉过你，你将有一大笔财富，是吗？像这种事情一样，他从来没有做错过什么事儿。无论怎样，你马上21岁了，那时，或许你会看得更透。”

　　“谢谢你，赫伯特！”我心情舒畅地说。

　　“但是，我要向你问点事情，亲爱的汉德尔，”赫伯特说，看上去这一次特别认真。“艾丝黛拉认为，她有教养，你和她怎么会幸福。你不可能想得通——做为一个朋友我这样说，记住——你不可能把她忘记吧？”

　　“我知道，你说得对，赫伯特，”我自悲地说，“但是，我从来不能终止爱她。”

　　“喂，别在意！”赫伯特说，“现在，我把自己的一些事情告诉你，我订婚了。”

　　“我可以问这位年轻小姐的名字吗？”

　　“克莱拉。她母亲去世了，和她父亲生活在一起。我们必须为我们的感情互相保密。因为，我也没有足够的钱和她结婚。我的船只保险业务一开张，我们就能结婚。”赫伯特想方设法显得他的前途有希望。但是，这一次他甚至不能控制他平时的欢乐微笑。

　　一天，我收到了一封来信，这封信让我心慌。

　　“后天我乘午班马车到伦敦，郝薇香小姐要你来接我。

　　艾丝黛拉。”

　　如果有时间，我会订几套新衣服。我不吃不喝直到这一天的到来；整个上午我不耐烦地等待着马车。她好像比以前更美丽了，当我带着她去郝薇香小姐已经为她在伦敦安排好的住处时，她对我的态度十分好。她的生活看起来是被郝薇香小姐操纵着，直到很小的细节，只希望我是被操纵的一部分。
