The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — Page 66
他们默默地登上楼梯,偶尔还带着敬畏的目光瞥一眼那具尸体,然后更彻底地检查起柜子里的东西来。
They mounted the stair in silence, and still with an occasional awestruck glance at the dead body, proceeded more thoroughly to examine the contents of the cabinet.
在一张桌子上,有化学实验的痕迹,几堆称量好的白色盐类放在玻璃碟子上,仿佛是为某个实验准备的,而那个不幸的人被阻止了。
At one table, there were traces of chemical work, various measured heaps of some white salt being laid on glass saucers, as though for an experiment in which the unhappy man had been prevented.
这把他们带到了壁炉边,那里的安乐椅被舒适地拉近,茶具摆放在坐者的手边,杯子里甚至还有糖。
This brought them to the fireside, where the easy-chair was drawn cosily up, and the tea things stood ready to the sitter's elbow, the very sugar in the cup.
书架上有几本书;茶具旁边摊开着一本,厄特森惊讶地发现这是一本虔诚的著作,杰基尔曾多次表达过对它的极大推崇,上面用他自己的笔迹注释着令人震惊的亵渎之词。
There were several books on a shelf; one lay beside the tea things open, and Utterson was amazed to find it a copy of a pious work, for which Jekyll had several times expressed a great esteem, annotated, in his own hand with startling blasphemies.
接下来,在他们对房间的检查过程中,搜寻者来到了穿衣镜前,他们不由自主地带着恐惧望向镜子的深处。
Next, in the course of their review of the chamber, the searchers came to the cheval-glass, into whose depths they looked with an involuntary horror.
但镜子的角度只让他们看到屋顶上映照的玫瑰色光辉,火光在柜子光滑的正面闪烁出上百次的倒影,以及他们自己俯身窥视的苍白而惊恐的面容。
But it was so turned as to show them nothing but the rosy glow playing on the roof, the fire sparkling in a hundred repetitions along the glazed front of the presses, and their own pale and fearful countenances stooping to look in.
