<p class="ql-block">亲密的关系就是这样开始并很快地发展着；虽然也遇到过暂时中断。恩萧不是靠一个愿望就能文质彬彬起来的，我的小姐也并非一个哲人，并非一个惯于忍耐的模范；可他们的心都向着同一个目的......一个是爱着，而且想着尊重对方，另一个是爱着而且想着被尊重......他们都极力要最终实现这一目标。</p><p class="ql-block">The intimacy thus commenced grew rapidly; though it encountered temporary interruptions. Earnshaw was not to be civilised with a wish, and my young lady was no philosopher, and no paragon of patience; but both their minds tending to the same point—one loving and desiring to esteem, and the other loving and desiring to be esteemed—they contrived in the end to reach it.</p> <p class="ql-block">五分钟之前，哈里顿仿佛是我青春的一个化身，而不是一个人，他给我许多各种各样的感觉，以至使我不可能理性地对待他。首先，他和凯瑟琳的惊人的相像竟使他和她联在一起了。你也许以为那是最足以引发我的想像力的一点，实际上却是最不足道的；因为于我来说，哪一样不是和她有联系的呢？哪一样不使我回忆起她来呢：我一低头看这间屋里的地面，我就看见了在石板中间出现的面貌！在每一朵云里，每一棵树上......在夜间充满于空中，在白天从每件东西上都看得见......我是被她的形象围绕着的！最平常的男人和女人的脸......连我自己的脸......都像她，都在嘲笑我。世界成了一个惊人的纪念品汇集，处处提醒我她是存在过，而我已失去了她！是的，哈里顿的模样是我那不朽的爱情的幻影；也是我想保持我的权力的那些疯狂的努力，我的堕落，我的骄傲，我的幸福，以及我悲痛的幻影......</p><p class="ql-block">Five minutes ago Hareton seemed a personification of my youth, not a human being; I felt to him in such a variety of ways, that it would have been impossible to have accosted him rationally.
