你很少告诉你母亲和我你的近况…

他把时间都花在牛羊身上…
Spending all his time with sheep and cattle…
这更接近大自然 但离牛津大学是更远了
…takes one closer to nature but further from Oxford.
我想提醒你 菲里克斯…
I would remind you, Felix…
大学教育并不代表什么…
…that a university education means nothing…
除非它能有助于宣扬上帝的神通
…unless it redounds to the glory of God.
教育还能有助于提高人的声望
It can also redound to the glory of man.
那也只能是第二位的
Only in the second place.
你的学徒生活过得怎样啊?
How far are you in your apprenticeship?
快要结束了

What counts is spiritual cleanliness. Isn’t that so, Father?
精神上和实际上都要洁净 我的孩子
The two go together, my boy.
父亲跟我们说你要兴建自己的农场
Father tells us you intend setting up on your own.
是的
Yes.
-在什么地方啊? -我现在还不确定
-In what part of the world? -I don’t know yet.
也许在殖民地那

上帝保佑我们
Heaven preserve us.
那里适合进行我心目中的那种耕作方式
It would suit the type of farming I have in mind.

事实上…
The truth is…
你们不觉得我是时候成家了吗?
…don’t you think it’s time I considered marrying?
的确 孩子 的确是时候了
Yes, indeed, my boy. Yes, indeed.
你妈和我一直在争论这个问题
Your mother and I have debated the same question.
真的吗? 你们觉得什么样的妻子会适合我这个…
Really? And what sort of wife would you favor…
奋斗中的农场主? -一个敬畏上帝的真正的女基♥督♥教♥徒♥
-…for a budding farmer like myself? -A truly Christian, God-fearing woman.
一个在各方面都可以辅助你 并给予你安慰的女子

她也许过分熟衷用俗艳的东西装饰教堂…
She may be rather fond of overdecorating a church…
如俗气的饰品 鲜花 蕾丝等等…
…with fripperies, flowers, scraps of lace and so forth…
但那只不过是少女的嗜好 这也可以接受
…but that’s merely a girlish fancy. It’ll pass.
玛希是个纯洁而善良的女孩
Mercy is a pure and virtuous girl.
是的 我知道她纯洁而善良
Oh, yes. I know she’s pure and virtuous.
但我必须老实告诉你们我心中另有所爱
But honesty compels me to inform you that I have other plans.
