The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — Page 54
普尔对她说道,口气凶狠,显示出他自己的神经也紧张不堪;的确,当那女孩突然提高了哀号的声调时,他们全都吓了一跳,转身面向里面的门,脸上露出可怕的期待神情。
Poole said to her, with a ferocity of accent that testified to his own jangled nerves; and indeed, when the girl had so suddenly raised the note of her lamentation, they had all started and turned towards the inner door with faces of dreadful expectation.
然后他请厄特森先生跟着他,带路走向后花园。
And then he begged Mr. Utterson to follow him, and led the way to the back garden.
听到这个意想不到的结论,厄特森先生的神经猛地一震,几乎使他失去平衡;但他鼓起勇气,跟着管家穿过手术室进入实验室大楼,那里堆放着一堆堆的箱子和瓶子,一直走到楼梯脚下。
Mr. Utterson's nerves, at this unlooked-for termination, gave a jerk that nearly threw him from his balance; but he recollected his courage and followed the butler into the laboratory building through the surgical theatre, with its lumber of crates and bottles, to the foot of the stair.
普尔示意他站到一边听着;而他自己则放下蜡烛,显然鼓足了很大的勇气,登上台阶,用有些颤抖的手敲了敲密室门上的红色粗呢。
Here Poole motioned him to stand on one side and listen; while he himself, setting down the candle and making a great and obvious call on his resolution, mounted the steps and knocked with a somewhat uncertain hand on the red baize of the cabinet door.
