The month of courtship had wasted: its very last hours were being numbered.
一个月的求婚期过去了，只剩下了最后几个小时。
There was no putting off the day that advanced -- the bridal day; and all preparations for its arrival were complete.
结婚的日子已经临近，不会推迟。一切准备工作也已就绪，
I, at least, had nothing more to do:
至少我手头没有别的事儿要干了。
there were my trunks, packed, locked, corded, ranged in a row along the wall of my little chamber;
我的箱子已收拾停当，锁好，捆好，沿小房间的墙根，一字儿摆开，
to-morrow, at this time, they would be far on their road to London:
明天这个时候，这些东西会早已登上去伦敦的旅程，
and so should I (D.V.), -- or rather, not I, but one Jane Rochester, a person whom as yet I knew not.
还有我（如蒙上帝恩允）--或者不如说，不是我而是一位我目前尚不认识的，叫作简·罗切斯特的人。
The cards of address alone remained to nail on: they lay, four little squares, in the drawer.
只有地址标签还没贴上，那四个小方块仍躺在抽屉里。

Mr. Rochester had himself written the direction, "Mrs. Rochester, ---- Hotel, London," on each:
罗切斯特先生亲自在每个标签上书写了：“伦敦XX旅馆罗切斯特太太”这几个字。
I could not persuade myself to affix them, or to have them affixed.
我无法让自己或者别人把它们贴上去。
Mrs. Rochester! She did not exist: she would not be born till to-morrow, some time after eight o'clock a.m.;
罗切斯特太太！她并不存在，要到明天八点钟后的某个时候才降生，
and I would wait to be assured she had come into the world alive before I assigned to her all that property.
我得等到完全相信她已经活生生地来到这个世界时，才把那份财产划归她。
It was enough that in yonder closet, opposite my dressing-table,
在我梳妆台对面的衣柜里，
garments said to be hers had already displaced my black stuff Lowood frock and straw bonnet:
一些据说是她的衣物，已经取代了她罗沃德的黑呢上衣和草帽。
for not to me appertained that suit of wedding raiment;
这已经是足够的了，因为那套婚礼服，
the pearl-coloured robe, the vapoury veil pendent from the usurped portmanteau.
以及垂挂在临时占用的钩子上的珠白色长袍和簿雾似的面纱，本不属于她的。
I shut the closet to conceal the strange, wraith-like apparel it contained;
我关上了衣柜，隐去了里面幽灵似的奇装异服。
which, at this evening hour -- nine o'clock -- gave out certainly a most ghostly shimmer through the shadow of my apartment.
在晚间九点这个时辰，这些衣着在我房间的暗影里，发出了阴森森的微光。
"I will leave you by yourself, white dream," I said.
“我要让你独个儿留着，白色的梦幻，”我说。
"I am feverish: I hear the wind blowing: I will go out of doors and feel it."
“我兴奋难耐，我听见风在劲吹，我要出门去感受一下。”
