"All day yesterday I was very busy, and very happy in my ceaseless bustle;

for I am not, as you seem to think, troubled by any haunting fears about the new sphere, et cetera:
因为不像你似乎设想的那样，我并没有为新天地之类的忧虑而烦恼。
I think it a glorious thing to have the hope of living with you, because I love you.

No, sir, don't caress me now -- let me talk undisturbed.
不，先生，现在别来抚摸我，不要打扰我，让我说下去。
Yesterday I trusted well in Providence, and believed that events were working together for your good and mine:

it was a fine day, if you recollect -- the calmness of the air and sky forbade apprehensions respecting your safety or comfort on your journey.

I walked a little while on the pavement after tea, thinking of you;

and I beheld you in imagination so near me, I scarcely missed your actual presence.

I thought of the life that lay before me -- your life, sir -- an existence more expansive and stirring than my own:
我思忖着展现在我面前的生活--你的生活，先生--比我的更奢华，更激动人心，
as much more so as the depths of the sea to which the brook runs are than the shallows of its own strait channel.
就像容纳了江河的大海深处，同海峡的浅滩相比，有天壤之别。
I wondered why moralists call this world a dreary wilderness: for me it blossomed like a rose.
