「我相信,除了那个包裹之外,勒克莱尔船长还委托他带了一封信。」

"I believe that, besides the packet, Captain Leclere confided a letter to his care."

「你说的是哪个包裹,唐格拉斯?」

"Of what packet are you speaking, Danglars?"

「就是那个当泰斯留在波尔托-费拉约的包裹。」

"Why, that which Dantès left at Porto-Ferrajo."

「你怎么知道他有包裹要留在波尔托-费拉约?」

"How do you know he had a packet to leave at Porto-Ferrajo?"

唐格拉斯脸色变得通红。

Danglars turned very red.

「我当时经过船长舱室的门口,门开着一半,我看见他把包裹和信交给了当泰斯。」

"I was passing close to the door of the captain's cabin, which was half open, and I saw him give the packet and letter to Dantès."

「他没有跟我提起这件事,」船主回答道,「但如果真有一封信,他会把它交给我的。」

"He did not speak to me of it," replied the shipowner; "but if there be any letter he will give it to me."

唐格拉斯沉思了片刻。「那么,莫雷尔先生,我求您,」他说,「不要向当泰斯提起这件事。也许是我看错了。」

Danglars reflected for a moment. "Then, M. Morrel, I beg of you," said he, "not to say a word to Dantès on the subject. I may have been mistaken."

就在这时,那个年轻人回来了;唐格拉斯退了出去。

At this moment the young man returned; Danglars withdrew.

「好了,我亲爱的当泰斯,你现在自由了吗?」船主问道。

"Well, my dear Dantès, are you now free?" inquired the owner.

「是的,先生。」

"Yes, sir."

「你没有被耽搁太久。」

"You have not been long detained."

「没有。我给海关官员留了一份提货单的副本;至于其他文件,他们派了一个人跟引航员一起走,我把文件交给了那个人。」

"No. I gave the custom-house officers a copy of our bill of lading; and as to the other papers, they sent a man off with the pilot, to whom I gave them."

「那么你在这里没有别的事了?」

"Then you have nothing more to do here?"

「没有——现在一切都妥当了。」

"No—everything is all right now."

「那你可以来和我一起吃晚饭吗?」

"Then you can come and dine with me?"

「我真的必须请您原谅,莫雷尔先生。我应该先去拜访我的父亲,不过这并不减少我对您给予我这份荣誉的感激之情。」

"I really must ask you to excuse me, M. Morrel. My first visit is due to my father, though I am not the less grateful for the honor you have done me."
