「眞希望威廉请人来家里之前告诉我一声」

我正在想要不要去找你呢
I haven't known whether to come and find you.
不 不 最好别去

你过得怎样?
How are you getting on?
后悔来这了 对吧? 一点也没有
You rue the day you came, don't you? Not at all!
你看上去很疲惫
You have a weary look.
要不要我请个保姆帮你?
Would you like me to hire you a nursery maid?
不 不用 我确实没睡觉
No, that's not necessary. It's true I haven't slept but,
不过那得怪牀
that's because of this bed.
太小了 我就知道
It's too small, I knew it.
威廉 它还没被洗礼过呢
William, it hasn't been christened.
还记得我们的第一次吗?

我一直期盼着见你 福克斯太太
I cannot tell you how anxious I have been to see you, Mrs Fox.
她们説你近来的康复...
They say your recent recovery is...
完全是个奇蹟
nothing short of miraculous.
奇蹟举世罕见 拉克曼太太
Miracles are rare, Mrs Rackham.
我还是相信我只是被调养痊癒了而已
I prefer to think I was simply nursed back to health.
得了吧
Come now!

Henry assured us he had seen you on your deathbed!
对 亨利看到的是我最糟的时候

我也很遗憾 你去的是健康修院
And I regret that. You've been to the Convent of Health...
对吗?
.. haven't you?
不 是圣巴多罗买♥♥医院
No. St Bartholomew's Hospital.
你是...眞的想告诉我
Are you... Are you seriously asking me to believe that
你被救出
you were snatched
那神祕恶魔的利齿 靠的只是调养好?
from the jaws of you-know-what by nothing more than good nursing?
你説的那家修院我从未耳闻
The convent of which you speak is not known to me.
若我扪心自问 福克斯太太
If I am scrupulously honest, Mrs Fox,
我也不知道它的确切位置
its precise location is a mystery to me.
幸好 他们给我派了位天使护身
Luckily, they have provided me with an angel escort,
时机成熟就会带我去的
ready for when the time comes.
「我身下的担架升起」
'The stretcher on which I lie is lifted
「经过洒满阳光的林荫 被抬向修院大门」
'and carried through the sunlit trees to the gates of the convent.
「我听见来时的火车拉响汽笛

踏上归程」

'She whom has taken me under her wing is waiting at the gates.
「我被抬进修院
'I'm carried into the convent,
放在它中心的一间温暖小房♥间」
into a warm cell at its very heart,
「彩绘玻璃窗之下 五光十色」
