我曾经在一场舞会上看到

-男人都这样 -但这并不光彩
– Men do. – That does not make it honourable.
没关系 我是一个明智的女人

如果你够明智的话 你可能已经打听清楚了
If you were, you might have ascertained
你那位爱尔兰朋友没什么家产 一分都没有

所以他也不太可能和没有家产的人结婚
and could not be expected to marry without it.
今晚在舞会上好好考虑一下

成为陛下正规军的将领

但是 我没有足够的金钱去买♥♥那个官职
But I do not have the money to purchase one.
我有
I do.
怎么能让你为我那么做
Well, that, of course is impossible.
亨利 不要掩饰自己 至少不要对我掩饰

长话短说
Let us simply say
我最关心的就是我外甥的心愿

不管是多么不同寻常的心愿
however extraordinary they may be.
其实

你看上去很健康
your health seems robust.
你的教养也不错
You have the usual accomplishments.
你本人也挺讨人喜欢的
Your person is agreeable.
但是像你这样的年轻女子
But when a young woman such as yourself
有幸被像我外甥这样的绅士求婚
receives the addresses from a gentleman such as my nephew,
就应该马上接受
it is her duty to accept at once.
但你是怎么回应的
But what do we find?

对简来说 韦斯利先生可是个好人选
Mr Wisley is a good opportunity for Jane.
她应该立刻答应他
She should accept him at once.
你们不这么觉得吗
Do not you think?
-露西 我们去吃点东西 -怎么了 妈妈
– Lucy, let us take some refreshments. – What? Mother.
我听说韦斯利先生向你求婚了
I have learned of Mr Wisley’s marriage proposal.
恭喜你
My congratulations.
对于一个受过良好教育
Is there an alternative for
但没什么家产的年轻女子来说还有其他选择吗
a well-educated young woman of small fortune?
你怎么能接受他呢
How can you have him?
即使他有万贯家财 高门大宅
Even with his thousands and his houses,
你这样脱俗的人
how can you, of all people,
怎能将自己轻易托付给一个不爱的人
dispose of yourself without affection?
就算我爱上某个人了又能怎样

我完全仰仗我那位古怪的疯舅舅养活
I am entirely dependent upon that bizarre old lunatic, my uncle.
我还不能向你求婚 但你必须知道我的感受
I cannot yet offer marriage. But you must know what I feel.
简 我是你的
