Mr. Darcy's letter to Lady Catherine was in a different style; and still different from either was what Mr. Bennet sent to Mr. Collins, in reply to his last.

达西先生写给咖苔琳夫人的信,格调和这封信不一样,而班纳特先生写给柯林斯先生的信,和这两封信又是全不相同。

"DEAR SIR, ---I must trouble you once more for congratulations. Elizabeth will soon be the wife of Mr. Darcy. Console Lady Catherine as well as you can. But, if I were you, I would stand by the nephew. He has more to give. ---Your's sincerely, &c."

贤侄先生左右:我得麻烦你再恭贺我一次。伊丽莎白马上就要做达西夫人了。请多多劝慰咖苔琳夫人。要是我处在你的地位,我一定要站在姨侄一边,因为他可以给人更大的利益。---愚某手上

Miss Bingley's congratulations to her brother, on his approaching marriage, were all that was affectionate and insincere. She wrote even to Jane on the occasion, to express her delight, and repeat all her former professions of regard. Jane was not deceived, but she was affected; and though feeling no reliance on her, could not help writing her a much kinder answer than she knew was deserved.

彬格莱小姐祝贺哥快要结婚的那封信,写得无限亲切,只可惜缺乏诚意。她甚至还写信给吉英道贺,又把从前那一套假仁假义的话重提了一遍。吉英虽然再也不受她蒙蔽,可仍然为她感动;虽说对她不再信任,可还是回了她一封信,措辞极其亲切,实在使她受之有愧。

The joy which Miss Darcy expressed on receiving similar information, was as sincere as her brother's in sending it. Four sides of paper were insufficient to contain all her delight, and all her earnest desire of being loved by her sister.

达西小姐来信上说,她接到喜讯时,正和她哥哥发出喜讯时一样欢欣。那封信写了四张信纸,还不足以表达她内心的喜悦,不足以表明她是怎样恳切地盼望着嫂嫂会疼爱她。

Before any answer could arrive from Mr. Collins, or any congratulations to Elizabeth from his wife, the Longbourn family heard that the Collinses were come themselves to Lucas lodge. The reason of this sudden removal was soon evident. Lady Catherine had been rendered so exceedingly angry by the contents of her nephew's letter, that Charlotte, really rejoicing in the match, was anxious to get away till the storm was blown over.

柯林斯先生的回信还没有来,伊丽莎白也还没有获得柯林斯太太的祝贺,这时候浪搏恩全家却听说他们夫妇俩马上要到卢家庄来。他们突然动身前来的原因,是很容易明白的。原来咖苔琳夫人接到她姨侄那封信,大发雷霆,而夏绿蒂对这门婚事偏偏非常欣喜,因此不得不火速避开一下,等到这场暴风雨过去了以后再说。
