【译文】女孩儿们花了好多心思不能引他开口,都讲些衣服的款式呀,最近在人家客厅里看见的一切新款潮流,听得他心烦要死。她们的一举一动和爱米的比起来,真是大不相同。她们的声音尖锐刺耳,哪里有爱米的清脆婉转。她们穿上浆得硬梆梆的衣服,露出胳膊肘,种种姿态没一样比得上爱米谦和稳重的举止、典雅端庄的风采。
【续】可怜的施瓦滋正坐在爱米从前常坐的位子上,两只手戴满了戒指,摊在怀里,平放在蜜黄软缎的袍子上,耳环子和一身挂挂拉拉的小装饰品闪闪发光,大眼睛骨碌碌地转。她不做什么,只是志得意满地坐着,觉得自己真正妩媚。姊妹俩都说一辈子没见过比这蜜黄软缎更漂亮的料子。

【译文】鼓声突然而起,又嘎然而止。击鼓的少年已被击倒在地,失去知觉,也许已丧了命。但他已经完成了自己的使命。那座城镇,一分钟之前还在沉睡,现在却已苏醒,一切重又活跃起来。军号频响,刀枪与盔甲碰撞,人们操着一种古怪的方言厉声地喊出各种情绪激昂的口令。

The fume and glare of fast multiplying torches rose above the white walls, which were now alive with the morions of armed men, and presently ablaze with firearms.
狗狂吠,马嘶鸣,女人尖叫,孩子啼哭;奔走的脚步声响个不停,像是低沉的雷鸣,成了那阵阵尖锐刺耳声音的伴奏。白色城墙的上空火把迅速增多,升起一片烟焰,墙头上出现了许多战士的头盔以及闪亮的枪支。
