Great Expectations — Page 6
Now, I ain't alone, as you may think I am.
Agora, eu não estou sozinho, como você pode pensar que estou.
There's a young man hid with me, in comparison with which young man I am a Angel.
Há um jovem escondido comigo, em comparação com o qual jovem eu sou um Anjo.
That young man hears the words I speak.
Esse jovem ouve as palavras que falo.
That young man has a secret way pecooliar to himself, of getting at a boy, and at his heart, and at his liver.
Esse jovem tem um jeito secreto peculiar a ele mesmo, de chegar a um menino, e ao seu coração, e ao seu fígado.
It is in wain for a boy to attempt to hide himself from that young man.
É em vão para um menino tentar se esconder desse jovem.
A boy may lock his door, may be warm in bed, may tuck himself up, may draw the clothes over his head, may think himself comfortable and safe, but that young man will softly creep and creep his way to him and tear him open.
Um menino pode trancar sua porta, pode estar aquecido na cama, pode se encolher, pode puxar as roupas sobre a cabeça, pode se achar confortável e seguro, mas esse jovem vai sorrateiramente se arrastar e se arrastar até ele e rasgá-lo aberto.
I am a keeping that young man from harming of you at the present moment, with great difficulty.
Estou impedindo esse jovem de lhe fazer mal neste momento, com grande dificuldade.
I find it wery hard to hold that young man off of your inside.
Acho muito difícil segurar esse jovem longe das suas entranhas.
Now, what do you say?"
Agora, o que você diz?"
I said that I would get him the file, and I would get him what broken bits of food I could, and I would come to him at the Battery, early in the morning.
Eu disse que conseguiria para ele a lima, e conseguiria o que pudesse de restos de comida, e que iria encontrá-lo na Bateria, de manhã cedo.
"Say Lord strike you dead if you don't!" said the man.
"Diga que Deus o fulmina se não o fizer!" disse o homem.
I said so, and he took me down.
Eu disse isso, e ele me deixou descer.
"Now," he pursued, "you remember what you've undertook, and you remember that young man, and you get home!"
"Agora," ele continuou, "você se lembra do que prometeu, e você se lembra daquele jovem, e vai para casa!"
"Goo-good night, sir," I faltered.
"Bo-boa noite, senhor," eu balbuciei.
"Much of that!" said he, glancing about him over the cold wet flat.
"Muita coisa!" disse ele, olhando ao redor sobre a planície fria e úmida.
