Elizabeth could never address her without feeling that all the comfort of intimacy was over, and, though determined not to slacken as a correspondent, it was for the sake of what had been, rather than what was. Charlotte's first letters were received with a good deal of eagerness; there could not but be curiosity to know how she would speak of her new home, how she would like Lady Catherine, and how happy she would dare pronounce herself to be; though, when the letters were read, Elizabeth felt that Charlotte expressed herself on every point exactly as she might have foreseen. She wrote cheerfully, seemed surrounded with comforts, and mentioned nothing which she could not praise. The house, furniture, neighbourhood, and roads, were all to her taste, and Lady Catherine's behaviour was most friendly and obliging. It was Mr. Collins's picture of Hunsford and Rosings rationally softened; and Elizabeth perceived that she must wait for her own visit there, to know the rest.

伊丽莎白每逢写信给她,都免不了感觉到过去那种推心置腹的快慰已经成为陈迹;虽说她也下定决心,不要把通信疏懒下来,不过,那与其说是为了目前的友谊,倒不如说是为了过去的交情。她对于夏绿蒂开头的几封信都盼望得很迫切,那完全是出于一种好奇心,想要知道夏绿蒂所说的话,处处都和她自己所预料的完全一样。她的信写得充满了愉快的情调,讲到一件事总要赞美一句,好象她真有说不尽的快慰。凡是住宅、家具、邻居、道路,样样都叫她称心,咖苔琳夫人待人接物又是那么友善,那么亲切。她只不过把柯林斯先生所夸耀的汉斯福和罗新斯的面貌,稍许说得委婉一些罢了;伊丽莎白觉得,一定要等到亲自去那儿拜访,才能了解底蕴。

Jane had already written a few lines to her sister to announce their safe arrival in London; and when she wrote again, Elizabeth hoped it would be in her power to say something of the Bingleys.

吉英早已来了一封短简给伊丽莎白,信上说,她已经平安抵达伦敦;伊丽莎白希望她下次来信能够讲一些有关彬格莱家的事。
Her impatience for this second letter was as well rewarded as impatience generally is. Jane had been a week in town, without either seeing or hearing from Caroline. She accounted for it, however, by supposing that her last letter to her friend from Longbourn had by some accident been lost.
第二封信真等得她焦急,可是总算没有白等。信上说,她已经进城一个星期,既没有看见珈罗琳,也没有收到珈罗琳的信。她只得认为她上次从浪搏恩给珈罗琳的那封信,一定是在路上失落了。
"My aunt," she continued, "is going tomorrow into that part of the town, and I shall take the opportunity of calling in Grosvenor-street."
她接下去写:“明天舅母要上那个地区去,我想趁这个机会到格鲁斯汶纳街去登门拜访一下。”
