So I sought out a school conducted on a more indulgent system, and near enough to permit of my visiting her often, and bringing her home sometimes.

因此我选了一个校规比较宽容的学校，而且又近家，让我常常可去探望她，有时还可以把她带回家来。

I took care she should never want for anything that could contribute to her comfort:

我还留意让她过得舒舒服服，什么都不缺。

she soon settled in her new abode¹, became very happy there, and made fair progress in her studies.

她很快在新的居所安顿下来了，在那儿过得很愉快，学习上也取得了长足的进步。

As she grew up, a sound English education corrected in a great measure her French defects;

她长大以后，健全的英国教育很大程度上纠正了她的法国式缺陷。

and when she left school, I found in her a pleasing and obliging companion: docile², good-tempered, and well-principled.

她离开学校时，我发觉她已是一个讨人喜欢、懂礼貌的伙伴，和气，听话，很讲原则。

By her grateful attention to me and mine, she has long since well repaid any little kindness I ever had it in my power to offer her.

她出于感激，对我和我家人的照应，早已报答了我在力所能及的情况下给予她的微小帮助。

My tale draws to its close: one word respecting my experience of married life,

我的故事已近尾声，再说一两句关于我婚后的生活情况，

and one brief glance at the fortunes of those who se names have most frequently recurred³ in this narrative⁴, and I have done.

粗略地看一看他们的名字在我叙述中反复出现的人的命运，我也就把故事讲完了。

I have now been married ten years.

如今我结婚已经十年了。

I know what it is to live entirely⁵ for and with what I love best on earth.

我明白一心跟世上我最喜爱的人生活，为他而生活是怎么回事。

I hold myself supremely⁶ blest -- blest beyond what language can express; because I am my husband's life as fully⁷ is he is mine.

我认为自己无比幸福——幸福得难以言传，因为我完全是丈夫的生命，他也完全是我的生命。

No woman was ever nearer to her mate than I am: ever more absolutely bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh.

没有女人比我跟丈夫更为亲近了，比我更绝对地是他的骨中之骨，肉中之肉了。

I know no weariness of my Edward's society:

我与爱德华相处，永远不知疲倦，

he knows none of mine, any more than we each do of the pulsation⁸ of the heart that beats in our separate bosoms⁹; consequently, we are ever together.

他同我相处也是如此，就像我们对搏动在各自的胸腔里的心跳不会厌倦一样。

To be together is for us to be at once as free as in solitude¹⁰, as gay as in company.

结果，我们始终呆在一起。对我们来说，在一起既像独处时一样自由，又像相聚时一样欢乐。

We talk, I believe, all day long: to talk to each other is but a more animated¹¹ and an audible thinking.

我想我们整天交谈着，相互交谈不过是一种听得见、更活跃的思索罢了。

All my confidence is bestowed¹² on him, all his confidence is devoted¹³ to me; we are precisely¹⁴ suited in character -- perfect concord¹⁵ is the result.

他同我推心置腹，我同他无话不谈。我们的性格完全投合，结果彼此心心相印。
