请问双城记两段话的原文
一段是开头说it was the best of times, it was the worst of times,it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness
我想知道这段话有没有完全结束?后面还有没有“这是……”之类的句子
还有一段是最后Sydeny代死时的一段独白,我原来在书虫里看到过。大概是说:你们的儿子将会以我为名,这是我做过的最好的一件事,比以前所做的任何事都好。我想要整段独白。
谢谢:)
请问双城记两段话的原文
很高兴可以回答你的问题。双城记(《The tale of two cities》)是我最喜欢的外国小说之一。第一章第一段“时代”(The period):It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way--in short, the period was so. far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only. 那是最美好的时代,那是最糟糕的时代;那是智慧的年头,那是愚昧的年头;那是信仰的时期,那是怀疑的时期;那是光明的季节,那是黑暗的季节;那是希望的春天,那是失望的冬天;我们全都在直奔天堂,我们全都在直奔相反的方向--简而言之,那时跟现在非常相象,某些最喧嚣的权威坚持要用形容词的最高级来形容它。说它好,是最高级的;说它不好,也是最高级的。
  另:Sydeny最后的独白:(我个人认为最经典)
  They said of him, about the city that night, that it was the peacefullest man's face ever beheld there. Many added that he looked sublime and prophetic.
  One of the most remarkable sufferers by the same axe--a woman--Had asked at the foot of the same scaffold, not long before, to be allowed to write down the thoughts that were inspiring her. If he had given an utterance to his, and they were prophetic, they would have been these:
  `I see Barsad, and Cly, Defarge, The Vengeance, the Juryman, the Judge, long ranks of the new oppressors who have risen on the destruction of the old, perishing by this retributive instrument, before it shall cease out of its present use. I see a beautiful city and a brilliant people' rising from this abyss, and, in their struggles to be truly free, in their triumphs and defeats, through long long years to come, I see the evil of this time and of the previous time of which this is the natural birth, gradually making expiation for itself and wearing out.
  `I see the lives for which I lay down my life, peaceful, useful, prosperous and happy, in that England which I shall see no more. I see Her with a child upon her bosom, who bears my name. I see her father, aged and bent, but otherwise restored, and faithful to all men in his healing office, and at peace. I see the good old man, so long their friend, in ten years' time enriching them with all he has, and passing tranquilly to his reward.
  `I see that I hold a sanctuary in their hearts, and in the hearts of their descendants, generations hence. I see her, an old woman, weeping for me on the anniversary of this day. I see her and her husband, their course done, lying side by side in their last earthly bed, and I know that each was not more honoured and held sacred in the other's soul, than I was in the souls of both.
  `I see that child who lay upon her bosom and who bore my name, a man winning his way up in that path of life which once was mine. I see him winning it so well, that my name is made illustrious there by the light of his. I see the blots I threw upon it, faded away. I see him, foremost of just judges and honoured men, bringing a boy of my name, with a forehead that I know and golden hair, to this place--then fair to look upon, with not a trace of this day's disfigurement--and I hear him tell the child my story, with a tender and a faltering voice.
  `It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.'
  那天晚上城里的人议论起来,说他的面孔是在那儿所见到的最平静的面孔。不少的人还说他显得崇高,像个先知。
  死在同一把利斧之下的引人注目的受难者中有一个妇女,不久前曾在同一个刑架的脚下要求准许写下激荡在她胸中的思想。若是卡尔顿能抒发他的感想,而他的感想又出自先知之口,那么,他的想法会是这样:
  “我看见巴萨、克莱、德伐日、复仇女神、陪审员、法官,一长串新的压迫者从被这个惩罚工具所摧毁的老压迫者们身上升起,又在这个惩罚工具还没有停止使用被消灭。我看见一座美丽的城市和一个灿烂的民族从这个深渊中升起。在他们争取真正的自由的奋斗中,在他们的胜利与失败之中,在未来的漫长岁月中,我看见这一时代的邪恶和前一时代的邪恶(后者是前者的自然结果)逐渐赎去自己的罪孽,并逐渐消失。
  “我看见我为之献出生命的人在英格兰过着平静、有贡献、兴旺、幸福的生活—一我是再也见不到英格兰了。我见到露西胸前抱着个以我命名的孩子。我看见露西的父亲衰老了、背驼了,其它方面却复了原,并以他的医术忠实地济世救人,过着平静的生活。我看见他们的好友,那个善良的老人,在十年之后把他的财产赠送给了他们,并平静地逝世,去接受主的报偿。
  “我看见我在他们和他们无数代后裔心里占有神圣的地位。我看见露西成了个龙钟老妇,在我的祭日为我哭泣。我看见她跟她的丈夫正结束生命的历程,并排躺在弥留的榻上。我知道他俩彼此在对方的灵魂中占有光荣崇高的地位,而我在他俩灵魂中的地位则更光荣、更崇高。
  “我看见躺在她怀里的以我命名的孩子长大成人,在我曾走过的道路上奋勇前行。我看见他业绩优异,以他的光耀使我的名字辉煌。我看见我染在那名字上的污迹消失。我看见他站在公平正直的法官和光明磊落的人们的最前列。我看见他带了一个又以我命名的孩子来到这里。那时这里已是一片美景,全没了今天的扭曲和丑恶。那孩子长了个我所熟悉的前额和一头金发。我听见他告诉孩子我的故事,声音颤抖,带着深情。
  “我现在已做的远比我所做过的一切都美好;我将获得的休息远比我所知道的一切都甜蜜。”
