欢迎来参加聚会,伯顿上校。将军,看来你现在进入状态了。
Welcome to the party, Col. Burton. You're in for it now, General.
埃莉诺领略到的,不是语言本身,不是布兰顿上校的自白,而是她母亲的活跃想象力为此事所作的逼真的润色。
Elinor perceived not the language, not the professions of Colonel Brandon, but the natural embellishments of her mother's active fancy.
从风度上看,客人布兰登上校似乎并不适合做约翰爵士的朋友,就如同米德尔顿夫人不适合做他的妻子、詹宁斯太太不适合做米德尔顿夫人的母亲一样。
Colonel Brandon, the friend of Sir John, seemed no more adapted by resemblance of manner to be his friend, than Lady Middleton was to be his wife, or Mrs. Jennings to be Lady Middleton's mother.
