你在看“城堡和紫藤”吗? Are you reading about the castle and the wisteria?
什么？哦，是的。怎么啦？ What? Uh, yes. Why?
它是…它是那么的美妙， It just...It seems so wonderful,
而这里的天气却糟透了。 and it's such a miserable day.
或许这才是觉得它如此美妙的原因。 Perhaps that's why it seems so wonderful.
不，它本身就美妙。 No, it is so wonderful.
好吧,美妙 Wonderful, yes,
但不值得浪费时间老去想它。 but it's not worth wasting one's time thinking about.
不，值得。 No, it is.
我，我觉得我们是邻居。 I-- I believe we're neighbors.
我每个星期天都会在 I see you every Sunday in church--
汉普斯特德的教堂街见到你。 Chapel street, Hampstead--
但我们从来没说过话。 But we've never actually spoken.
- 我是萝丝 阿布斯诺特太太。 - 哦，谢谢。 - Um, I'm Mrs. Rose Arbuthnot.- Oh, thank you.
我是洛蒂 威尔金斯——洛蒂 威尔金斯太太。 I'm Lotty Wilkins-- Mrs. Lotty Wilkins.
我想这对你没什么意义。 I don't suppose that means much to you.
有时这对我也没什么意义， Sometimes it doesn't mean much to me either,
但我还是称自己为威尔金斯太太。 but I am Mrs. Wilkins.
我相信你是的。 I'm sure you are.
我一直不太喜欢威尔金斯这个名字。 I've never really liked the name Wilkins very much.
这名字太不起眼了 It's such a small name
结尾还有个小转折，你觉得呢? with a mean little twist at the end, you know?
“金斯”、“金斯”—— 就像一个哈巴狗的小尾巴， "Kins." "Kins"-- It's like a pug dog's little tail,
但这是梅勒什的名字 but it is Mellersh's name.
梅勒什 威尔金斯是我先生，所以我坚持用它。 Mellersh Wilkins is my husband, so I'm stuck with it.
他是个律师。他很帅。 Um, he's a solicitor. He's very handsome.
- 对你来说挺好的 - 为啥？ - That must be nice for you. - Why?
嗯…… Well, um...
因为美啊…帅啊 because beauty... handsomeness
是上帝赐予的礼物，就像其他的礼物一样…… is a gift from God, like any other...
如果使用得当，它可以…那啥 and if used properly, it can be, well--
我们为啥不… ——嘘 Why don't we--Shh!
对不起。 Sorry.
我们为啥不拿下它？ Why don't we try and get it?
- 拿下它？ - 对啊！ - Get it? - Yes!
不光是嘴上说说它有多美妙， Not just say how wonderful it would be
然后就回汉普斯特德去了， and then go back to Hampstead without doing anything
啥行动也没有。 about it,
就像我们年复一年的那样。 As we have been doing for years and years and years.
但你说“拿下”是什么意思？ But how do you mean, "get it"?
租。把它租下来。拥有它。 Rent it. Hire it. Have it.
城堡、紫藤。所有的一切。 The castle. The wisteria. Everything.
- 你和我？ - 对啊。我们一起。 - You and me? - Yes. We'll share.
那样的话，每人只需花一半的钱， That way it will only cost half,
而你看起来和我一样想要它。 and you look as though you wanted it as much as I do.
你看起来如此美丽，却又如此悲伤。 You look so beautiful and so sad.
我不悲伤！ I'm not sad!
我长得就这样！ It's my face!
我没办法。我丈夫说我长了一张愁眉苦脸的圣母样。 I can't help it. My husband says I have the face
他很会说话。 of a disappointed Madonna. He has a way with words.
我丈夫从不多说一句话。 My husband never says a word too much
也不少说 or a word too little.
有时我觉得他会把他说的每句话都记下来。 Sometimes I think he keeps copies of everything he says.
很没意思。 It's very disheartening.
明知有险阻，苦战能过关。 If you wish for something hard enough, it happens.
洛蒂，我以前跟你说过买花的事。 Lotty, I've told you before about buying flowers.

然后你就得买更多。 Then you have to buy more.
我…我知道，梅勒什，但我喜欢这颜色… I-- I know, Mellersh, but I like the color and--
我们并不富裕，洛蒂。 We're not rich, Lotty.
我又没有股票和分红。 I own no stocks and shares.
如果明天我被电车撞了， What would happen to you... if tomorrow
你怎么办… I were to be knocked down by a tram,
你还继续买花? and you were still buying flowers?
我们得精打细算，洛蒂。 We have to watch every penny, Lotty.
知道了,梅勒什。 I understand, Mellersh.
你还在坚持买东西记账吗？ You are still recording every purchase you make
记在我给你买的那个本本里? in that book I bought you, I hope?
- 是的。买花也记。- 好。 - Yes. Even the flowers. - Good.
接下来 Now...
嗯…关于聚会的事 mm-hm. About the party.
我们应该在… We should arrive at, um...

对。 Yes.
8:30太早了。显得我们急吼吼的。 8:30 is too early. We'd look too eager.
8:45…又太迟了 8:45--too late...
好像我们没啥兴致。 as if we're not interested.
就这样，8:40 Well, 8:40 it is.
我不能呆在家里吗，梅勒什? Can't I stay at home, Mellersh?
这种艺术家，汉普斯特德多得是， All these artists. There are so many in Hampstead,

捡好听的说，千穿万穿，马屁不穿。 Praise them, and you can't go wrong.
但就算我在那里也没人关注。 But no one will know I'm there even if I am.
我相信你姐姐也不会介意我不去的。 I'm sure your sister won't mind if I don't turn up.
但是我 But I would.

好极了，亲爱的 Excellent sole, my dear.
梅勒什，我一直在想。 Mellersh, I've been thinking.
你看，这么糟糕的天气， As you know, this, um, terrible weather,
我想…你是否想… and I-- I wondered if you would mind...
嗯？ Mm-hm?
尝尝苹果馅饼。 Apple dumplings.
你不介意尝尝苹果馅饼吧？ Would you mind some apple dumplings?
介意？不，我喜欢苹果馅饼。 Mind? No. I love apple dumplings.
今晚你准备的都是我喜欢的菜。 You're serving all my favorites tonight.
你还没吃完呢。 You haven't finished your sole.

你曾经见过有一种东西 Have you ever seen things in a kind of flash
在它没发生之前就闪闪发光吗？ before they happen?
没有。 Never.
我敢肯定，你表面上看什么都好，可就是很痛苦 I'm sure it must be wrong to be good for so long
一定有什么不对劲。 you become miserable.
我知道那么多年来你什么都不错，一年又一年 I can see you've been good for years, and years
可你就是不快乐。 and you aren't happy.
而我…我从小就与人为善 And-- And I've been doing things for other people
助人为乐， ever since I was a little girl,
而我却没感受到我得到了更多的关爱… and I don't believe I'm loved any better--
你没事吧？ Are you all right?
你要知道 You must believe
我这辈子还没跟别人这么掏过心窝子。 I've never spoken to anyone like this in my life.
我不知道我是怎么了。 I don't know what's come over me.
这就是一广告。 It's the advertisement.
是啊… Yes...
反正那么闹心 and us being so miserable.
简单问一下也无妨，对吧? There's no harm in simply asking about it, is there?
你好,亲爱的，还等我呢。 Hello, my dear. You waited up.
我想和你谈谈，弗雷德里克 I want to talk to you, Fredrick.
我给你做了点吃的。 I've made you something.
谢谢你！我在招待会上搞多了。 Thank you. I had enough at the reception.
嗯，看得出来。 Yes, I can see.

我们可以登广告再邀请两位女士加入。 We could advertise for two ladies to join us.
这样的话，加上其他费用，每个只需要15英镑。 That way it would only cost 15 pounds each plus expenses.
这样有点儿不地道吧。 There's something immoral about all this.

我唯一想做的就是坐在阴凉处， All I wish to do is sit in the shade

根据你在广告里告诉我的， and from what you tell me in your advertisement,
圣塞尔瓦托一定完美。 San Salvatore will be perfect.
我记得和我父亲在box hill过了一个周末。 I remember spending a weekend with my father at box hill.

小说家。 The novelist.
你认识济慈（英国浪漫派诗人）吗? Did you know Keats?
济慈? Keats?
不，不认识， No, I didn't,
我也不认识莎士比亚或乔叟（英国小说家、诗人）。 and I didn't know Shakespeare or Chaucer either.
哦，不，当然不是。只是… Oh, no, of course not. It's just that, um...
只是他们是不朽的，不是吗? well, it's just that they're immortal, aren't they?

我好像有天在汉普斯特德看到济慈了 I thought I saw Keats the other day in Hampstead
正穿过马路去他住的房子。 crossing the road to his house where he lived.

费雪太太，一切似乎都安排妥当了…… Well, Mrs. Fisher, everything seems in order...
只要你们的证明材料令人满意。 Provided your references are satisfactory.
我们的证明材料？ Our references?
难道不应该是 Aren't we the ones who ought to be

这些证明材料应该是令人满意的。 These should be satisfactory.
皇家学院的总管， The president of the royal academy,
坎特伯雷大主教， Archbishop of Canterbury,

我认识他们很多年了。 I've known them for years.
我不认为在正派人之间 I don't think references are very nice things
还要求提供证明材料是什么好事。 amongst decent people.
我的意思是，我们又不是做生意，对吧? I mean, we're not businessmen, are we?
他们生意人之间才相互不信任。 They have to distrust each other.
威尔金斯太太说得对，费雪太太。 Mrs. Wilkins is right, Mrs. Fisher.
证明材料确实让我们的计划显得挺正式的， References do bring a certain atmosphere into our plans
但这不是我们想要的， which isn't quite what we want,
所以我想我们不需要你的证明材料… so I don't think we'll take up yours...
我们也不会提供给你… or give you ours...
这样的话，我们就认为你不愿意加入我们了。 in which case I shall assume that you don't wish to join us.
好吧,好吧。没证明材料算了。 Well, very well. No references.

我要去我爱的意大利， I'll be in Italy, which I love,
而不是讨厌的酒店。 and not in a hotel, which a loathe.
最重要的是，我不会和朋友待在一起， Best of all I won't be staying with friends I'll be
而是和陌生人待在一起。太棒了。 with strangers. Wonderful.
有什么棒的？ Why is that so wonderful?
好吧，我认识的人你一个都提不起来吧。 Well, you won't be able to mention a single person I know.
我认识的人你都不认识吧，对吗？ You don't know anyone I know, do you?

哦，非常感谢。现在，我想请你… Oh, thank you so much. Now, I would like you to--
对不起，我得去和你女儿说句话。 Excuse me, I must go and have a word with your daughter.
好吧，可是我… Yes, but I was--
不，不，不。 No, no, no, no.
你好，我很高兴你能来。 Hello, I'm so glad you could make it.
我正期待着… I was looking forward--

这绝对不可能。 It's absolutely out of the question.
- 我做不到。 - 为啥? - I can't do that. - Why not?
因为我不愿意! Because I don't want to!
这事已经定好了，梅勒什。 I'm afraid it's all settled, Mellersh.
我不能出尔反尔。 I can't go back on my word now.
定了？定好什么了？啥也没定！ Settled? Settled? Nothing's settled.
我一个字都不信。 I don't believe it a word of it.

我们会用很多花把它装饰得漂漂亮亮的。 We were going to make it pretty for you with lots of flowers.
哦，多梅尼克搞好了。我来的时候就告诉他了。 Oh, Domenico's done that. I told him when I got here.
他是园丁。 He's the gardener.

她没有头疼。 She hasn't got a headache.
卡莱尔饱受头痛和神经痛之苦。 （托马斯·卡莱尔，苏格兰哲学家） Carlyle suffered terribly from headaches and neuralgia.
他总是吃蓖麻油。 He always took castor oil.
嗯，卡洛琳女士需要的是药剂。 Um, what lady Caroline wants is a dose.
仅此而已。 Only one, mind.
一直服用蓖麻油是不妥的。 It's a mistake to keep on taking castor oil.
你知道它的意大利语怎么说吗? Do you know the Italian for it?

不。古代意大利没有蓖麻油。 No. Castor oil isn't in classical Italian.

过段时间她就不会再那么格外了。 Soon she won't have to try.
她会…她会有啥说啥的。 She'll-- She'll just be herself without trying.
洛蒂在这方面是内行。 Lotty has a theory about this place.
我觉得也是，但我不明白 I'm sure, but I don't understand
你为什么估计卡洛琳女士说的不是实话。 why you assume lady Caroline is not telling the truth.
哦，我不是估计，我是确定。 Oh, I don't assume. I know.
为啥？你咋就确定了？ And how, pray, do you know?
我看到了她的内心。 I saw inside her.
听说你不舒服。 I hear you're not well.
我估计是水土不服。 But, I expect the journey's upset you.

我只是躺在这里想点儿事。 I'm just lying here thinking.
好吧，那也挺危险的。 Well, that's dangerous, too.
现在，我该上床休息了。 Now, I should go to bed and get well.
我挺好。 I am well.
那你为什么要和人说你病了？ Then why did you send a message saying you were ill?
我没说啊。 I didn't.
那我跑到这里来属于白费力气了。 Then I have had all the trouble of coming out here for nothing.
好吧，但是你出来转转看我没啥事 Yes, but don't you prefer coming out
总好过出来转转 and finding me well
看我出点儿事吧。 than coming out and finding me ill?
这间房真舒服啊，我们才发现。 Isn't this a delightful room? We've just discovered it.
好吗，真是的。 Well, really.
为什么你不高兴我们在这儿？ Why don't you like us being here?
我觉得你应该明白。这是我的房间。 I should have thought you could see. This is my room.
信纸，我的。 The notepaper. That's my notepaper.
还有钢笔。 And the pen.

我用它写了一些很漂亮的东西。 I've been writing some very nice things with it.
我…我觉得我没有弄坏它。 I-- I don't think I've hurt it in any way.
但是为什么我们不能待在这里？ But why can't we be here?
这是客厅，我们就是客人啊。 This is a sitting room, and we've been sitting.
还有一个啊。 There's another one.
你和你的朋友总不能同时占两个吧。 You and your friend can't sit in two rooms at once.
并且如果我不想打扰你们的生活， And if I've no wish to disturb you in yours,
你们也不要打扰我的生活。 you shouldn't disturb me in mine.
没事的。 It's all right.
过不了多久你就会希望我们一起互帮互助了。 Soon you'll want us to share.
你还会…你甚至还会让我用你的笔， You'll-- You'll probably even ask me
如果你知道我没有笔用。 to use your pen if you know that I haven't got one.
我需要一个自己的房间。 I need a room to myself.
我是一个老太太。 I'm an old woman.

我们也很高兴。 if it makes you happy.
我们只是不知道你的意思，就这样。 We just didn't know about it. That's all.
如果你不邀请我们， We wouldn't have come in if we had...
我们是不会再进来了，但是 not until you invited us, anyway,
你可能还是会邀请我们的…看着吧 and you probably will do, you know...
很快就会。 very soon.
那不是她的房间。 It isn't her room.
我一直在想梅勒什。 I've been thinking about Mellersh.
为什么？ Why?
我挺…差劲的。 I've been a... mean dog.
啊…什么？ A-- A what?
抛下一切 All this coming away
把他留在那个无聊的地方， and leaving him in that dreary place
而自己却在天堂里自得其乐。 while I'm here enjoying myself in heaven.
你造吗，他本来是计划和我一起来意大利度假… You know, he planned a holiday in Italy with me...
可我却计划自己到意大利度假。 and I planned a holiday in Italy by myself.
我想他一定很受伤。 I think he must be very hurt.
我已经写信告诉了他一切。 I've written and told him everything.
嗯，你指的是小广告 Uh, you mean about the advertisement
还有你的私房钱吗? and your nest egg?
哦，不。 Oh, no.
那些事他来了以后我会和他说的。 I'll tell him about that when he comes.
哦，他什么时候来? Uh, oh, when he comes?
我已经写信邀请他过来。 I've written and invited him to stay.
至少我得这么做。 It's the least I could do.
有福不同享实在太不像话了。 It would be mean not to share all this.
你觉得他会来吗? You think he'll come?
哦，希望会吧，可怜的小羊羔。 Oh, I hope so, poor lamb.
等着吧。 I see him here.
洛蒂。 Lotty.
洛蒂，我跟不上你的思路了。 Lotty, I can't keep up.
我们来这里的目的 The whole idea about coming here
不就是要逃离吗? was to get away... wasn't it?
怎么现在才过了一天， And now after just one day,
你就想给人写信… you want to write to the very people--
给那些我们想逃离的人。 The very people we're trying to get away from.
是的,我知道。 Yes, I know.
很愚蠢是吗，罗斯?但我在这里很开心。 It's idiotic, isn't it, Rose? But I feel so happy here.
这个地方让我觉得充满了爱。 This place makes me feel flooded with love.
重要的是爱要多多益善。 The important thing is to have lots of love about.
我在家里的时候很计较。 I was very stingy with it back home.
我…我经常精打细算、斤斤计较。 I-- I used to measure and count it out.
我讲究有来有往，你懂的。 I had this obsession with justice, you see.
梅勒什爱我多少， I wouldn't love Mellersh
我就爱他多少。 unless he loved me back exactly as much.
他要是不爱我， And as he didn't...
我也不爱他。 and neither did I.
没意思。 The emptiness of it all.
我不回村子了。 I don't think I'll come down to the village.

别想太久了。 Don't think too long.
- 快写信邀请他。 - 邀请谁? - Write and invite him now. - Invite who?
你丈夫。 Your husband.
洛蒂写信，梅勒什会回信。 Lotty can write, and Mellersh will answer.
弗雷德里克不会。 Frederick won't.
就算会 Or if he did,
也会是“感谢来信。” it would be, "thanks for the letter.
“别急着回来。” "Don't hurry back.
“如果需要钱，就说。” "Say if you want money.
“弗雷德里克。” Frederick."
衣服很漂亮。 That's a beautiful dress.
漂亮啥啊，一百年的老款了。 No. I've had it a hundred years.
但是你穿着一定很冷。 But you must be very cold in it.
这里天黑以后很容易着凉。 It's easy to catch a chill here after dark.
你看起来好像里面什么都没穿。 You look as though you have nothing on underneath.
没穿。 I haven't.
很不注意。 That's very imprudent
也很不妥。 And very improper.
这儿又没男人，有什么妥不妥的？ There are no men here, so how can it be improper?
难道你没意识到，没男人在的场合 Have you noticed how difficult it is to be improper
行为得体才更难做到。 when there are no men about.
话糙理不糙啊。 That's sad, but true.
我今天过得很愉快。 I've had a wonderful day.
我决定邀请一个人来这里住。 I've decided to invite someone to stay here.
- 什么？ - 我想他会喜欢这儿的。 - What? - I think he'll like it.
- 谁？ - 威尔金斯。 - Who? - Wilkins.
- 好吗，那是你的名字。 - 也是他的。 - Well, that's your name. - And his.
一个亲戚？ A relation?
丈夫。 A husband.
我以为你是个战争遗孀。 I thought you were a war widow.
为什么？ Why?
周围有很多这样的人。 There are so many of them about.
我们在伦敦的时候 When we were in London,
说好了每人可以邀请一位客人的，对吗? we agreed we could invite one guest each, didn't we?
我不记得了。 I don't remember.
我记得，但是你居然真要这么做。 I do, but it's incredible you should want to.
我以为你组织这次活动是为了远离朋友… I thought the whole idea was to get away from friends--
- 还有丈夫。- 还有亲戚。 - ROSE: And husbands. - And family affection.
也可能缺乏亲情。 And lack of family affection.
- 是啊。 - 其实也没那么糟。（一个人的话）有喘息的空间。 - Really. - It wouldn't be so bad. It would give a person room to breathe.
不。那太可怕了，就像没穿衣服一样。 No. It would be terrible, like having no clothes on.
- 我喜欢。- 真的吗? - I like that. - Really!
感觉非常好，抛开一切。 It's a good feeling, getting rid of things.
但是光着身子太冷了… But it's so cold having nothing on...
而且还知道你再也穿不上了。 and knowing that you'll never have anything on again.
你会感觉越来越冷， You're going to get colder and colder
直到最后，你死了。 until, at last, you die of it.
这就是和一个不爱你的人 That's what it's like living with someone
一起生活的感觉。 who doesn't love you.
好吧，能把奶油递给我吗？ Well, would you pass me the cream?
但他不爱你吗? CAROLINE: But doesn't he love you?
梅勒什？他没表现出来。 LOTTY: Mellersh? He shows no signs of it.
- 味道真好。- 哦，真的吗？ - CAROLINE: Delicious. - MRS. FISHER: Oh, really.
我觉得那种滋味不好。 I didn't think it was delicious.
我很难受， I was miserable,
然而今天，我感觉很好。 and then, today, I got well.
把他拒之门外，我是不会开心的。 I can't ever be happy shutting him out.
我要分享。 I must share.
现在我完全知道《被祝福的达莫塞拉》是什么感觉了。 注：诗人但丁·加百利·罗塞蒂的代表作 Now I know exactly what the blessed Damozel felt like.
谁是被祝福的达莫塞拉？ Who's the blessed Damozel?
是首诗。我借你一本。 It's a poem. I'll lend you a copy.
千万别。 Please, don't.
作者是罗塞蒂先生（英国画家兼诗人），虽然并不是所有人都想要， And the author, Mr. Rosetti, though not all one would wish,
但他经常被邀请到我父亲的家里。 was frequently invited to my father's house.
对你来说太闹心了。 How terrible for you.
这就是我母亲一直在干的事， That's what my mother's always doing,
邀请作家。我讨厌作家，你呢? inviting authors. I hate authors, don't you?
我吗？ Me?
我还行，有时候吧。 Well, sometimes.
他们要是不写书，我才不会关注他们呢。 I wouldn't mind them if they didn't write books.
继续聊梅勒什。 Go on about Mellersh.
哦，对啊。 Oh, really.
好吧，都是因为这些床。 Well, it's all these beds.
八张床，只有四个人，好尴尬啊。 Eight beds and only four people. That's dreadful.
我想让罗丝也邀请她丈夫来。 I want Rose to invite her husband here, too.
- 是吗？ - 是的！ - Really. - Really!
对不起。 Sorry.
你应该知道， You do realize, of course,
这房子里只有一间能用的卧室。 that there is only one spare bedroom in the house.
一间？其它的谁住着？ One? Who's in all the others?
我们。 We are.
这有六个房间。我们用了四间。 There are six rooms. We have four.
弗朗西斯卡用了第五间，第六间是空的。 Francesca has the fifth, and the sixth is empty.
哦,亲爱的,亲爱的。 Oh, dear. Oh, dear.
我是爱梅勒什， I want to love Mellersh,
但不一定代表每晚都和他在一起。 but not necessarily spend every night with him.
我要把他安置在哪里呢? Where am I going to put him?
一个房间对他来说不够吗? Isn't one room enough for him?
够，但是你们想邀请的人 Yes, but there won't be room left
就没有位置了。 for anybody that you may want to invite here.
好吧，我不需要。 Well, I shan't want to.
不需要？ No?
萝丝不算。 And Rose doesn't count.
她肯定和她丈夫一起住。 She'd want to share her room with her husband.
她浑身上下都写着呢。 It's written all over her.
- 洛蒂！ - 真是的。 - Lotty! - Really.
真是的啥啊？ Really, what?
好吧，你真的打算 Well, really, am I to understand
把唯一一间空卧室 you propose to reserve the only spare bedroom
留给你的家人吗? for the exclusive use of your family?
梅勒什不是我的家人。他是我的丈夫。 Mellersh isn't my family. He's my husband.
好吧，既然没人想要这个房间， Well, as nobody seems to want the room,
- 它就归梅勒什了。 - 我有个朋友。 - Mellersh must have it. - I have a friend.
凯特 兰茉莉 Kate Lumley.
也许你认识她？ Perhaps you know her?
我想邀请她和我一起。 I wish to invite her to join me.
那就没梅勒什啥事了。 That settles Mellersh, then.
哦。 Oh.
恐怕你要失望了，洛蒂。 Afraid you're in for it, Lotty.
当然，除非他压根儿就不能来。 Unless, of course, he can't come.
不，不。 No, no.
我会让他来的。 I see him here.
为什么我如此不安? Why am I so restless?
从孩提时代起，我就没有过这样焦躁不安的感觉。 I haven't felt this restless since I was a child.
这对我这个年纪的人来说太荒谬了。 It's too absurd for someone my age.
但是看看我。我不能保持安静。 But look at me. I can't keep still.
我觉得……有什么事要发生。 I feel... something is going to happen.
但是我不会让它发生的。 But I won't let it.
不会让它发生的。 I won't let it.
真奇怪，在这样的地方 It's odd how one's mind
一个人怎么会胡思乱想。 slips sideways in a place like this.
我今天没用手杖走路。 I walked without my stick today.
这太奇怪了。 It's very strange.
你要是了解我，你就会知道这有多奇怪。 If you knew me, you'd know how strange it was.
当你的凯特·兰茉莉来的时候，你可以和她谈谈。 You can talk to your Kate Lumley about that when she comes.
哦,不。凯特只会看着我， Oh, no. Kate would only look at me
然后提醒我喝茶。 and suggest a cup of tea.
我饿死了。 I'm starving.
我又度过了美好的一天。 I've had another wonderful day.
- 信寄出去了吗？ - 什么信？ - Has the letter gone? - What letter's that?
邀请她丈夫来这儿的信。 Inviting her husband here.
- 哦，洛蒂，算了。 - 又来一个？ - Oh, Lotty, don't. - Another one?
她丈夫是谁？ Who is her husband?
当然是阿布斯诺特先生。 Mr. Arbuthnot, of course.
我是说谁是阿布斯诺特先生？ I mean what is Mr. Arbuthnot?
我丈夫。 My husband.
他们带来，啦啦啦 LOTTY: ♪ They bring, tra-la
夏天的玫瑰和美酒 ♪ A summer of roses and wine ♪
这就是我们所说的 ♪ And that's what we mean When we say that the thing ♪
像在春天里绽放的花儿一样受欢迎 ♪ Is welcome as flowers That bloom in the spring ♪
卡洛琳说的对，胡思乱想了。 Caroline's right. Minds slip sideways.
我怎么能邀请他呢? How could I invite him?
我们能说些什么? What would we talk about?
事实上… The truth is...
我令他厌烦。 I bore him.
而且改变不了。 And there's no way back.
如果你让某人感到厌烦， No. If you bore somebody,
几乎不可能让他再改变。 it's almost impossible to un-bore him.
Whoo-hoo!
- 那位是卡罗琳·戴斯特女士吗? – 不是 - Is that lady Caroline Dester? - No.
那是萝丝 阿布斯诺特夫人。卡罗琳还在睡觉呢。 Rose. Mrs. Arbuthnot. Caroline'll still be in bed.
卡罗琳？你就叫她卡罗琳？ Caroline? You call her Caroline?
我得说，洛蒂。 I must say, Lotty.
当我收到你的信，发现你 When I got your letter and found you were on holiday
和卡罗琳·戴斯特女士一起度假时，我很吃惊。 with lady Caroline Dester, I was impressed.
梅勒什，这里是不是很美? Isn't it beautiful here, Mellersh?
你知道戴斯特家族是英国最富有的家族之一吗? Do you know the Desters are one of the richest families
这一次，洛蒂，你真的立大功了。 in England? For once, Lotty, you're being really useful.
空气都是金色的。 The air is golden.
现在，我要先洗个澡， Now, first I think I'll have a bath,
然后刮胡子，换身衣服，睡一觉， then a shave, then I'll change my clothes, have a sleep,
然后吃午饭。 and then I'll lunch.
然后你就可以把我介绍给卡罗琳·戴斯特女士了。 And then you can introduce me to lady Caroline Dester.
我已经计划好我要说什么了。 I've planned exactly what I'm going to say.
梅勒什，我咋觉得你大老远跑来 Mellersh, I do believe you came all this way
是为了见卡罗琳女士，而不是我。 just to see lady Caroline and not me.
不。不，亲爱的，不不。 No. No, my dear. No, no, no.
我来当然是为了见你。 No. I came here to see you. Oh, yes.
不过，如果这样做 If, however, in so doing,
能改善我们的业务前景， I can improve our business prospects,
那更好… well...
哦，我没意见。 Oh, I don't mind.
你在这里才重要。 You're here. That's the important thing.
而且你会有所改变的。 And you'll change.
Signore. Signore.
好。非常感谢。谢谢你。 Yes. Thank you very much. Thank you.

- 我的天啊 - 你好! - Oh, my god. - How do you do?
- 你…你好 -我是卡罗琳·戴斯特 - H-- How do you do? - I'm Caroline Dester.
我…请允许我自我介绍一下。 A-- Allow me to introduce myself.
我是梅勒什·威尔金斯。 My name's Mellersh Wilkins.
我…恐怕我说了些不合时宜的话。 I'm... I'm afraid I used unpardonable language.

- 哦。是没什么。- 费舍尔太太, - Oh. That's right. - Mrs. Fisher,
请允许我介绍梅勒什·威尔金斯先生。 Allow me to introduce Mr. Mellersh Wilkins.

见到我妻子的朋友终归是我的荣幸。 always a pleasure to meet a friend of my wife's.
我…我只不过是在洗澡。 I-- I was just taking a bath.
噢，我不知道 Pericoloso 表示爆炸。 Oh, I didn't know Pericoloso meant explosion.
否则我还不如一直脏兮兮的。 Otherwise I would've remained dirty.
但是现在，梅勒什，你看起来一尘不染。 Oh, but now, Mellersh, You look absolutely spotless.
你看起来干净得可以出席晚宴了。 You look clean enough to eat dinner off.
卡罗琳女士举止优雅。 Lady Caroline acted with true grace.
费舍尔太太的行事作风也很有一套。 And Mrs. Fisher is remarkable, too, in her way.
如果我没记错的话，她还是趁些钱的， A woman of parts and property, if I'm not mistaken,
她可能需要我的咨询。 who may need my counseling.
洛蒂，你的朋友们真好，都很阳光。 Lotty, your friends are splendid. Splendid.
我不明白你为什么要遮遮掩掩的。 Why you kept them a secret is beyond me.
这位好心的女士想要什么? Does this good lady want something?
- 钱。 - 钱？ - Money. - Money?
我想她说的是客房服务账单。 I think she's talking about the housekeeping bills.
你不用理这些，你是这里的客人。 You're nothing to do with those. You're a guest here.
恐怕我不是吧。 I'm afraid I'm not.
我们四个人将共同分担这次度假的费用。 The four of us are sharing the expense of this holiday.
我会用我的私房钱来支付我的那一份。 I'm paying for my share out of my nest egg.
你…你完全有理由生我的气。 Y-- You've every right to be angry with me.
无稽之谈。 Nonsense.
嗯…毕竟，这是你自己的钱。 Well... it's your money, after all.
而且你也需要这样的假期。 And you needed a holiday like this.
再说，你还能在哪里遇到这么有趣的人? Where else would you meet such interesting people?
哦！梅勒什… Oh! Oh, Mellersh...

- 啊，一位招人喜欢的客人。 - 招人喜欢吗? - Ah, a most agreeable guest. - Agreeable?
她一直让账单以一种可怕的方式增加。 She's been letting the bills run up in a most terrible fashion.
这些账单跟卡罗琳女士有什么关系? What has lady Caroline to do with the bills?
好吗，她是大内总管。 Well, the housekeeping was left to her.

你知道她是戴斯特勋爵的女儿吧… You do know she's the daughter of Lord Dester...
- 戴斯特勋爵。 - 对啊! - The Lord Dester. - Well, ah!
好吧，这就解释得通了。 Well, that accounts for it then.
她父亲把他的部门搞得一团糟 The botch-up her father made in his department
在战争期间算是一件全国性的丑闻。 during the war was a national scandal.
他们从来就没有过真凭实据。 They never could actually prove anything.
你应该告诉我 You ought to have told me
你没有在好好管账。 you were not doing the household bills.
我又不知道你知不知道。 I didn't know you thought I was.
好吧，那你觉得后面我们该怎么办? Well, what do you propose we do for the rest of the time here?
- 不怎么办。- 不怎么办？ - Nothing. - Nothing.
- 不怎么办。 Nothing.
哦，女士们… Uh, ladies...
嗯…我可以提个建议吗? m-- May I make a suggestion?
为什么不给每人一定的配额呢? Why not allow a certain amount per head?
然后告诉厨师， And tell the cook from that sum,
她必须一如既往地服务你们。 she must cater for you as well as ever.
这很容易算。 It's easily reckoned out.
那这么一个普普通通的旅店收费可能会…减半。 The charges of a modest hotel perhaps... halved.
嗯。 Hmm.
好啊，这主意不错，威尔金斯先生。 - 噢，是的。 - Well, that's very sensible, Mr. Wilkins. - Oh, it is,
但是上星期的账单怎么办？ but what about the terrifying bills for this last week?
别担心。我来付。 Don't worry. I'll pay them.
算是我送给圣塞尔瓦托的礼物， It'll be my present to San Salvatore,
- 不管怎样，我不想让洛蒂担心。-你真是太慷慨了。 and I don't want Lotty worried - in any way. - That's most generous of you.
好的，如果你想浪费你自己的钱， Well, uh, if you wish to waste your money,
- 我同意。 - 好的。 - I agree. - Good.
好了，我们不必再麻烦卡罗琳女士了。 Well, we needn't bother lady Caroline
- 费舍尔太太… - 哦，是啊。 - any further. Mrs. Fisher... - Oh, really.

我挺喜欢他。 CAROLINE: I like him.
我本以为我不会的，但是我错了。 I didn't think I would, but I do.
他既不墙头草，也不是太势利。 He doesn't hover. He doesn't grab.
他挺对我胃口。 He fits in.
我不应该写这信。 ROSE: I shouldn't write.
他不会来的。 He won't come.
我要假期做什么? "What do I want with a holiday?"
这地方让我变得软弱，工作是唯一的救赎。 This place is making me soft, and work is the only salvation.
你知道我不会寄出去的。 You know I won't post it.
多梅尼克可以寄。 Domenico can do it.
这个地方 MRS. FISHER: It's this place.
和因弗内斯露台不一样。 Different from Inverness terrace.
那里没有年轻人。 Nothing young there.
荒谬… Ridiculous...
这种感觉我突然要爆发出来。 this feeling I'm suddenly going to burst out.
在我这个年纪真是荒唐 Absurd at my age.
我可别这样。可别这样。 I won't have it. I won't have it.
- 梅勒什？ - 啊！ - Mellersh? - Ah!
谢谢，亲爱的。 Thank you, my dear.
我做了个决定。 I've made up my mind.
我决定为你这个假期买单， I've decided to pay your expenses

你的私房钱… Your nest egg...

为什么你之前没那么迷人? Why weren't you attractive sooner?

然后他把拐杖留在那里作为一个提醒… And he left it there as a reminder...
然后，过了段时间， and, uh, after a while,
呃，没人确定过了多久… uh, quite how long nobody can be sure...
拐杖开始发芽了。原来这是…… It-- The stick began to sprout. And it was...

上个星期， That last week,
整个乡村似乎都穿上了白色的衣裳。 the whole country seemed to dress itself in white.
白色百合，白色砧木， There were white lilies, white stocks,
白色巴克西玫瑰, white Banksia roses,
还有洋槐树的芬芳。 and the fragrance of the acacias.
甚至在我们到达山脚下， Even after we'd got to the bottom of the hill
穿过铁门， and passed through the iron gates
出了村之后， and out into the village,
我们仍然还能闻到洋槐树的味道。 we could still smell the acacias.
即使到了伦敦，我们也能闻到它们的气味。 We could smell them even when we reached London.
但，那又是另一个故事了 But that's another story.
