"Is it really for love he is going to marry you?" she asked.
“难道他真的是因为爱你而娶你的？”她问。
I was so hurt by her coldness and scepticism, that the tears rose to my eyes.
她的冷漠和怀疑使我心里非常难受，眼泪涌上了我的眼眶。
"I am sorry to grieve you," pursued the widow;
“对不起让你伤心了，”寡妇继续谈下去，
"but you are so young, and so little acquainted with men, I wished to put you on your guard.
“可是你那么年轻，跟男人接触又那么少，我希望让你存些戒心。
It is an old saying that 'all is not gold that glitters;'
老话说‘闪光的不一定都是金子’，
and in this case I do fear there will be something found to be different to what either you or I expect."
而在这方面，我担心会出现你我所料想不到的事。”
"Why? -- am I a monster?" I said: "is it impossible that Mr. Rochester should have a sincere affection for me?"
“为什么？难道我是个妖怪？”我说，“难道罗切斯特先生不可能真心爱我？”

"No: you are very well; and much improved of late; and Mr. Rochester, I daresay, is fond of you.
“不，你很好，而且近来大有长进。我想罗切斯特先生很喜欢你。
I have always noticed that you were a sort of pet of his.
我一直注意到，你好像深得他宠爱。
There are times when, for your sake, I have been a little uneasy at his marked preference,
有时候为你着想，我对他明显的偏爱感到不安，
and have wished to put you on your guard: but I did not like to suggest even the possibility of wrong.
而且希望你提防着点，但我甚至不想暗示会有出事的可能。
I knew such an idea would shock, perhaps offend you;
我知道这种想法会使你吃惊，也许还会得罪你。
and you were so discreet, and so thoroughly modest and sensible, I hoped you might be trusted to protect yourself.
你那么审慎，那么谦逊，那么通情达理，我希望可以信赖你保护自己。
Last night I cannot tell you what I suffered when I sought all over the house,
昨天晚上，我找遍了整幢房子，
and could find you nowhere, nor the master either;
既没有见到你，也没有见到主人，
and then, at twelve o'clock, saw you come in with him."
而后来十二点钟时瞧见你同他一起进来，这时我的痛苦实在难以言传。”
