'You scandalous old hypocrite!' she replied. 'Are you not afraid of being carried away bodily, whenever you mention the devil's name? I warn you to refrain from provoking me, or I'll ask your abduction as a special favour! Stop! look here, Joseph,' she continued, taking a long, dark book from a shelf; 'I'll show you how far I've progressed in the Black Art: I shall soon be competent to make a clear house of it. The red cow didn't die by chance; and your rheumatism can hardly be reckoned among providential visitations!'

"你無(wú)恥的老騙子! "她說(shuō)，"當(dāng)你提到那個(gè)魔鬼的名字的時(shí)候，你就不怕被帶走么?或者，我應(yīng)該讓你的引路人特別幫個(gè)忙!別動(dòng)!看這里，約瑟夫，"她從書(shū)架上取下一本黑色的很長(zhǎng)的書(shū)，繼續(xù)說(shuō)道，"我可以給你演示一下我在這種黑色藝術(shù)上的進(jìn)展。我將很快有能力讓它無(wú)處不在。那頭紅奶牛并不是死于非命;而神的造訪也很難讓你的風(fēng)濕病康復(fù)。"

'Oh, wicked, wicked!' gasped the elder; 'may the Lord deliver us from evil!'

"噢，惡魔，惡魔!"老人氣喘吁吁的說(shuō)，"愿主讓我們遠(yuǎn)離邪惡。"

'No, reprobate! you are a castaway - be off, or I'll hurt you seriously! I'll have you all modelled in wax and clay! and the first who passes the limits I fix shall - I'll not say what he shall be done to - but, you'll see! Go, I'm looking at you!'

"不，擯棄的人!你是被拋棄的人--滾，否則我會(huì)重傷你!我會(huì)把你印在蠟和粘土上!而第一個(gè)越過(guò)我所設(shè)定的界限的人會(huì)--我不說(shuō)他會(huì)怎么樣--但是，你會(huì)看見(jiàn)的!出去，我看著你呢!"

The little witch put a mock malignity into her beautiful eyes, and Joseph, trembling with sincere horror, hurried out, praying, and ejaculating 'wicked' as he went. I thought her conduct must be prompted by a species of dreary fun; and, now that we were alone, I endeavoured to interest her in my distress.

這個(gè)小惡魔的美麗的眼睛里閃爍著狠毒，而約瑟夫，害怕的抖起來(lái)，匆匆出去，禱告著，出去的時(shí)候冒出"惡魔"兩個(gè)字。我想她的傳導(dǎo)無(wú)非是惡作劇，而現(xiàn)在只剩下我們兩個(gè)人了。我試圖吸引她來(lái)注意到我的不幸。

'Mrs. Heathcliff,' I said earnestly, 'you must excuse me for troubling you. I presume, because, with that face, I'm sure you cannot help being good-hearted. Do point out some landmarks by which I may know my way home: I have no more idea how to get there than you would have how to get to London!'

"希斯克利夫太太，"我很誠(chéng)懇的說(shuō)道，"你得原諒我對(duì)你的打擾。我認(rèn)為，就憑你的面容，我確定你肯定是一個(gè)好心腸的人。請(qǐng)指一些可以指引我回家的路標(biāo)給我吧。我現(xiàn)在不知道怎么回去，正如你不知道怎么去倫敦一樣。"

'Take the road you came,' she answered, ensconcing herself in a chair, with a candle, and the long book open before her. 'It is brief advice, but as sound as I can give.'

"走你來(lái)的時(shí)候的路。"她回答到，并在一張椅子上坐了下來(lái)，點(diǎn)了根蠟燭，翻看了那本長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的書(shū)，"這是個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的建議，但是也是我能給的最好的建議。"

'Then, if you hear of me being discovered dead in a bog or a pit full of snow, your conscience won't whisper that it is partly your fault?'

"那么，如果你聽(tīng)說(shuō)，有人發(fā)現(xiàn)我死在沼澤中或者是填滿了雪的地窖里，你的良心不會(huì)譴責(zé)你的過(guò)錯(cuò)嗎?"

'How so? I cannot escort you. They wouldn't let me go to the end of the garden wall.'

"為什么?我不能去送你。他們不會(huì)讓我走到花園的墻角。"

'YOU! I should be sorry to ask you to cross the threshold, for my convenience, on such a night,' I cried. 'I want you to tell me my way, not to SHOW it: or else to persuade Mr. Heathcliff to give me a guide.'

"你!為了我自己的便利，而然你在這樣的天氣走出大門，我真該感到慚愧。"我叫到，"我只是想讓你告訴路在哪里，并不是讓你指給我看;或者你可以說(shuō)服希斯克利夫先生派個(gè)向?qū)Ыo我。"

'Who? There is himself, Earnshaw, Zillah, Joseph and I. Which would you have?'

"誰(shuí)?他自己，恩肖，齊拉，約瑟夫和我。你想要哪個(gè)呢?"

'Are there no boys at the farm?'

"這個(gè)農(nóng)場(chǎng)上就沒(méi)有小伙子嗎?"

'No; those are all.'

"沒(méi)有，一個(gè)都沒(méi)有。"

'Then, it follows that I am compelled to stay.'

"那么，這樣得話我就被迫留下來(lái)了，"

'That you may settle with your host. I have nothing to do with it.'

"這個(gè)你得和你得主人談，與我無(wú)關(guān)。"
