A Room with a View — Page 13

She proceeded no further into things, for Mr. Beebe reappeared, looking extremely pleasant.

Ela não foi mais longe no assunto, pois o Sr. Beebe reapareceu, com uma aparência extremamente agradável.

"Miss Bartlett," he cried, "it's all right about the rooms. I'm so glad. Mr. Emerson was talking about it in the smoking-room, and knowing what I did, I encouraged him to make the offer again. He has let me come and ask you. He would be so pleased."

"Senhorita Bartlett," exclamou ele, "está tudo resolvido quanto aos quartos. Estou muito contente. O Sr. Emerson estava falando sobre isso na sala de fumantes, e sabendo o que sabia, encorajei-o a fazer a oferta novamente. Ele me deixou vir perguntar a você. Ele ficaria muito satisfeito."

"Oh, Charlotte," cried Lucy to her cousin, "we must have the rooms now. The old man is just as nice and kind as he can be."

"Oh, Charlotte," exclamou Lucy para sua prima, "agora precisamos ficar com os quartos. O velho é tão simpático e gentil quanto pode ser."

Miss Bartlett was silent.

A senhorita Bartlett ficou em silêncio.

"I fear," said Mr. Beebe, after a pause, "that I have been officious. I must apologize for my interference."

"Receio," disse o Sr. Beebe, após uma pausa, "ter sido importuno. Devo pedir desculpas pela minha intromissão."

Gravely displeased, he turned to go. Not till then did Miss Bartlett reply: "My own wishes, dearest Lucy, are unimportant in comparison with yours. It would be hard indeed if I stopped you doing as you liked at Florence, when I am only here through your kindness. If you wish me to turn these gentlemen out of their rooms, I will do it. Would you then, Mr. Beebe, kindly tell Mr. Emerson that I accept his kind offer, and then conduct him to me, in order that I may thank him personally?"

Gravemente descontente, ele se virou para ir embora. Só então a senhorita Bartlett respondeu: "Meus próprios desejos, querida Lucy, são sem importância em comparação com os seus. Seria muito difícil se eu a impedisse de fazer o que quiser em Florença, quando estou aqui apenas graças à sua bondade. Se desejar que eu expulse esses cavalheiros de seus quartos, farei isso. Poderia então, Sr. Beebe, gentilmente dizer ao Sr. Emerson que aceito sua gentil oferta, e depois conduzi-lo até mim, para que eu possa agradecê-lo pessoalmente?"

She raised her voice as she spoke; it was heard all over the drawing-room, and silenced the Guelfs and the Ghibellines. The clergyman, inwardly cursing the female sex, bowed, and departed with her message.

Ela ergueu a voz ao falar; foi ouvida por toda a sala de estar, e silenciou os Guelfos e os Gibelinos. O clérigo, xingando interiormente o sexo feminino, fez uma reverência e partiu com a sua mensagem.

"Remember, Lucy, I alone am implicated in this.

"Lembre-se, Lucy, somente eu estou implicada nisso.
