I set out; I walked fast, but not far: ere I had measured a quarter of a mile, I heard the tramp of hoofs;
我出发了，走得很快，但并不很远。还没到四分之一英里，我便听见了一阵马蹄声。
a horseman came on, full gallop; a dog ran by his side. Away with evil presentiment!
一位骑手疾驰而来，旁边窜着一条狗。不祥的预感一扫而光！
It was he: here he was, mounted on Mesrour, followed by Pilot.
这正是他，骑着梅斯罗来了，身后跟着派洛特。
He saw me; for the moon had opened a blue field in the sky, and rode in it watery bright:
他看见了我，因为月亮在空中开辟了一条蓝色的光带，在光带中飘移，晶莹透亮。
he took his hat off, and waved it round his head. I now ran to meet him.
他摘下帽子，在头顶挥动，我迎着他跑上去。
"There!" he exclaimed, as he stretched out his hand and bent from the saddle:
“瞧！”他大声叫道，一面伸出双手，从马鞍上弯下腰来。
"You can't do without me, that is evident. Step on my boot-toe; give me both hands: mount!"
“显然你少了我不行，踩在我靴子尖上，把两只手都给我，上！”
I obeyed: joy made me agile: I sprang up before him.
我照他说的做了。心里一高兴身一子也灵活了，我跳上马坐到他前面。
A hearty kissing I got for a welcome, and some boastful triumph, which I swallowed as well as I could.
他使劲吻我，表示对我的欢迎，随后又自鸣得意地吹了一番，我尽量一股脑儿都相信。
He checked himself in his exultation to demand,
得意之中他刹住话题问我：
"But is there anything the matter, Janet, that you come to meet me at such an hour? Is there anything wrong?"
“怎么回事？珍妮特，你居然这个时候来接我？出了什么事了？”
"No, but I thought you would never come.
“没有。不过我以为你永远不会回来了。
I could not bear to wait in the house for you, especially with this rain and wind."
我实在耐不住等在屋子里，尤其是雨下得那么大，风刮得那么紧。”
