S- Sylvia Satterthwaite

M- Christopher’s mother

 

 

M: Poor child, living likean orphan with his aunt Effie.

C: Bear up, old girl. You'llbe near at hand now for Michael.

M:Your wife has shamed you both. All of us. 

Someone: You will divorce?

C: No, only a blagger wouldsubmit his wife to that. Mrs Satterthwaite established herselfat a German spa so that it may be said that Sylvia hasgone abroad to nurse her. The mother's a bitch but asensible one.

Someone: The motor-plough didn't serve.  

C: It’s all coming.

 

文本翻译: 

-真可怜，像个孤儿似的跟姑妈住在一起。

-别难过，妈妈。这样你就能经常去看他了。

-你妻子正给你们父子俩丢脸。让所有人蒙羞。

-你打算离婚吗？

-不，下三滥才会那样羞辱妻子。Satterthwaite夫人住进了德国一家疗养院所以可说Sylvia去国外照顾她了。她妈妈是个贱人，但还算明事理。

-机动犁坏了。

-祸不单行啊。
