"For my own part," she rejoined, "I must confess that I never could see any beauty in her. Her face is too thin; her complexion has no brilliancy; and her features are not at all handsome. Her nose wants character; there is nothing marked in its lines. Her teeth are tolerable, but not out of the common way; and as for her eyes, which have sometimes been called so fine, I never could perceive any thing extraordinary in them. They have a sharp, shrewish look, which I do not like at all; and in her air altogether, there is a self-sufficiency without fashion which is intolerable."
彬格莱小姐回答道:“老实说,我觉得根本看不出她有什么美。她的脸太瘦,皮肤没有光泽,眉目也不清秀。她的鼻子也不过普普通通;讲到她的眼睛,人家有时候都把它说得多么美,我可看不出有什么大不了。她那双眼睛有些尖刻相,又有些恶毒相,我才不喜欢呢;而且拿她的整个风度来说,完全是自命不凡,其实却不登大雅之堂,真叫人受不了。”

Persuaded as Miss Bingley was that Darcy admired Elizabeth, this was not the best method of recommending herself; but angry people are not always wise; and in seeing him at last look somewhat nettled, she had all the success she expected.

彬格莱小姐既然早已拿定主意达西爱上了伊丽莎白,又要用这种办法来搏得他的喜欢,实在不太高明;不过人们在一时气愤之下,往往难免有失算的时候。她看到达西终于给弄得多少有些神色烦恼,便自以为如意算盘打成功了。达西却咬紧牙关,一声不响;她为了非要他说几句话不可,便又往下说:
"I remember, when we first knew her in Hertfordshire, how amazed we all were to find that she was a reputed beauty; and I particularly recollect your saying one night, after they had been dining at Netherfield.
“我还记得我们第一次在哈福德郡认识她的时候,听人家说她是个有名的美人儿,我们都觉得十分奇怪;我特别记得有一个晚上,她们在尼日斐花园吃过晚饭以后。
