On this point she was soon satisfied; and two or three little circumstances occurred ere they parted which, in her anxious interpretation, denoted a recollection of Jane not untinctured by tenderness, and a wish of saying more that might lead to the mention of her, had he dared. He observed to her, at a moment when the others were talking together, and in a tone which had something of real regret, that it "was a very long time since he had had the pleasure of seeing her --" and, before she could reply, he added, "It is above eight months. We have not met since the 26th of November, when we were all dancing together at Netherfield."
他们两人之间看不出有什么特别钟情的地方。无论什么地方,都不能证明彬格莱小姐的愿望一定会实现。伊丽莎白立刻就觉得自己这种想法颇近情理。宾客们临走以前,又发生了两三件小事,伊丽莎白因为爱姐心切,便认为为两三件小事足以说明彬格莱先生对吉英依然旧情难忘,而且他还想多攀谈一会儿,以便谈到吉英身上去,只可惜他胆量甚小,未敢如此。他只有趁着别人在一起谈话时,才用一种万分遗憾的语气跟她说:“我和她好久不曾相见,真是福薄缘浅。”她还没有来得及回他的话,他又说道:“有八个多月不见面了。我们是十一月二十六日分别的,那一次我们大家都在尼日斐花园跳舞。”

Elizabeth was pleased to find his memory so exact; and he afterwards took occasion to ask her, when unattended to by any of the rest, whether all her sisters were at Longbourn. There was not much in the question, nor in the preceding remark, but there was a look and manner which gave them meaning.
伊丽莎白见他对往事记得这么清楚,很是高兴;后来他又趁着别人不在意的时候,向她问起她姐妹们现在是不是全在浪搏恩。这前前后后的一些话,本身并没有什么深意,可是说话人的神情态度,却大可玩味。
It was not often that she could turn her eyes on Mr. Darcy himself; but, whenever she did catch a glimpse, she saw an expression of general complaisance, and in all that he said she heard an accent so far removed from hauteur or disdain of his companions, as convinced her that the improvement of manners which she had yesterday witnessed.
她虽然不能常常向达西先生顾盼,可是她只消随时瞥他一眼,就看见他脸上总是那么亲切,她听他谈吐之间既没有丝毫的高傲习气,也没有半点蔑视她亲戚的意味,于是她心里不由得想道:昨天亲眼看到他作风大有改进。
