Anna Karenina — Page 2
争吵发生后的第三天,斯捷潘·阿尔卡季耶维奇·奥布朗斯基王爷——在上流社会里人称"斯季瓦"——在他一贯的时间醒来,也就是早上八点钟。
Three days after the quarrel, Prince Stepan Arkadyevitch Oblonsky—Stiva, as he was called in the fashionable world—woke up at his usual hour, that is, at eight o'clock in the morning,
他不是在妻子的卧室里醒来,而是在书房里那张皮面沙发上醒来的。
not in his wife's bedroom, but on the leather-covered sofa in his study.
他在那张富有弹性的沙发上翻了个身,似乎想要再度沉入绵长的睡眠之中;他用力搂紧另一侧的枕头,把脸埋进去,
He turned over his stout, well-cared-for person on the springy sofa, as though he would sink into a long sleep again; he vigorously embraced the pillow on the other side and buried his face in it;
然而他突然一跃而起,在沙发上坐直了身子,睁开了双眼。
but all at once he jumped up, sat up on the sofa, and opened his eyes.
"对对对,刚才是怎么回事来着?"他一边回想着梦境,一边思索道。"对,是怎么回事?没错!阿拉宾在达姆施塔特请客吃饭;不,不是达姆施塔特,是什么美国的地方。
"Yes, yes, how was it now?" he thought, going over his dream. "Now, how was it? To be sure! Alabin was giving a dinner at Darmstadt; no, not Darmstadt, but something American.
对,但是达姆施塔特在美国。对,阿拉宾在玻璃桌子上摆了一桌酒席,而那些桌子在唱歌,唱的是《我的珍宝》——不,不是《我的珍宝》,是更好听的什么曲子,
Yes, but then, Darmstadt was in America. Yes, Alabin was giving a dinner on glass tables, and the tables sang, Il mio tesoro—not Il mio tesoro though, but something better,
而且桌子上还摆着一些小巧的玻璃瓶,那些瓶子也都是女人,"他记起来了。
and there were some sort of little decanters on the table, and they were women, too," he remembered.
斯捷潘·阿尔卡季耶维奇的眼睛愉快地闪烁着光芒,他带着微笑若有所思地回味着。
Stepan Arkadyevitch's eyes twinkled gaily, and he pondered with a smile.
"对,那真是美妙,非常美妙。还有许多更令人陶醉的事,只是无法用语言表达,就连清醒着用思维去描述也做不到。"
"Yes, it was nice, very nice. There was a great deal more that was delightful, only there's no putting it into words, or even expressing it in one's thoughts awake.
