The Marquis turned to speak to another man. This was Monsieur Gabelle, the Marquis's official in the village.
侯爵转过身去和另外一个人说话。那是加贝尔先生，是侯爵在村子里的官员。
"Gabelle, " the Marquis said, "watch out for this man. If he comes here, put him in prison."
“加贝尔，”侯爵说。“留神这个人。如果他来这儿，就把他送进监狱。”
When the Marquis arrived at his castle, he asked if his nephew, Monsieur Charles, had arrived from England.
当侯爵到了他的城堡后，他便问起他侄儿查尔斯先生是否从英格兰回来了。
"Not yet, sir, " replied the servant, but as the Marquis was eating his dinner, he heard the sound of a coach outside. Soon his nephew entered the room. In England he was known as Charles Darnay.
“还没有，先生。”仆人回答说。但是在侯爵吃晚饭时，他听到外面有马车的声音。不久他的侄子便走进屋来。在英国他的名字是查尔斯·代尔那。
"You've been away for a long time, " said the Marquis, with his cold, polite smile.
“你离开很长时间了，”侯爵带着冷冷的、有礼貌的微笑说道。
"I've had many problems in England. Perhaps because of you, " Darnay said to his uncle."I was in great danger."
“我在英国遇到了很多麻烦，也许是因为你。”代尔那对他的叔叔说。“我的处境曾经非常危险。”
"No, no, I had nothing to do with your problems, " replied the Marquis coldly."Unfortunately, our family no longer has the power that it once had."
“不，不，我和你遇到的麻烦没有关系。”侯爵冷漠地说。“很不幸，我们的家族不再有它以往的权势了。”
"If it still had that power, one word from you would doubtless send me to prison, " said Darnay.
“如果还有那样的权势，你的一句话就可以毫无疑问地把我送进监狱了。”
"Possibly. For the good of our family."
“也许吧。为了家族的利益嘛。”
