I looked, and had an acute pleasure in looking, a precious yet poignant pleasure; pure gold, with a steely point of agony.
我瞧着,这给了我一种极度的欢乐,一种宝贵而辛辣的欢乐;是纯金,却又夹杂着痛苦的钢尖。
A pleasure like what the thirst-perishing man might feel who knows the well to which he has crept is poisoned,

yet stoops and drinks divine draughts nevertheless.
却偏要俯身去喝那圣水。

all energy, decision, will, were not beautiful, according to rule, but they were more than beautiful to me;

He made me love him without looking at me.
他连看都不用看我就使我爱上了他。
