‘Here's the money，’said Boldwood，handing the soldier a purse of gold coins.
“给你钱，”伯德伍德说着，把一袋金币递给了那个兵。
‘Stop，listen！’said Troy in a whisper.
“等一下！你听！”托伊悄声说道。
Light footsteps could be heard on the road，coming from Bathsheba's house.
轻微的脚步声从路上传来，来自芭丝谢芭的房子。
‘It's Bathsheba！She's expecting me.
“是芭丝谢芭！她在等我，
I must go and speak to her，and say goodbye to her，as you and I have arranged. ’
我得跟她去说句话，告个别。按你我安排的那样。”
‘Why do you need to speak to her？’
“你干吗要和她说话？”
‘She'll look for me if I don't.
“我不和她说句话，她会找我的。
Don't worry，you'll hear every word I say to her.
别担心，我对她说的每个字都会让你听到的，
It may help you in your courting，when I've gone！

Stand over there behind the tree，and listen. ’
过来站在树后听着。”
Troy stepped forward and whistled a double note.
托伊迈步向前，用口哨吹了一个双音。
‘Frank，darling，is that you？’It was Bathsheba's voice.
“弗兰克，亲爱的，是你吗？”这是芭丝谢芭的声音。
‘Oh God！’said Boldwood，unheard behind the tree.
“喔哟，天哪！”伯德伍德说道。不过因在树后，没有人听到。
‘Yes，it's me，’replied Troy
“是的，是我。”托伊回答道。
‘You're so late，Frank，’she continued.
“你来晚了，弗兰克，”她接着说。
‘The coach arrived a long time ago！
“马车早就到了！
Frank，it's so lucky！
弗兰克，咱们真走运！
There's nobody in my house except me tonight，so nobody will know about your visit. ’
今晚，我屋里除了我没有别人，谁也不会知道你来。”
‘Excellent，’said Troy.
“好极了，”托伊说。
‘But I'll just have to collect my bag，so you run home and I promise to be there in ten minutes. ’
“不过我得去拿我的包。这样吧，你先回去，我保证十分钟后到。”
‘Yes，Frank. ’She ran back to her house.
“好吧，弗兰克。”她跑回了家。
Troy turned to Boldwood，who had stepped out from behind the tree，his face white and his whole body trembling.
托伊向伯德伍德转过身去。伯德伍德从树后走出来，脸色惨白，浑身发抖。
