To Kill a Man
杀人
Though dim night-lights burned, she moved familiarly through the big rooms and wide halls, seeking vainly the half-finished book of verse she had mislaid and only now remembered. When she turned on the lights in the drawing-room, she disclosed herself clad in a sweeping negligee gown of soft rose-colored stuff, throat and shoulders smothered in lace. Her rings were still on her fingers, her massed yellow hair had not yet been taken down. She was delicately, gracefully beautiful, with slender, oval face, red lips, a faint color in the cheeks, and blue eyes of the chameleon sort that at will stare wide with the innocence of childhood, go hard and gray and brilliantly cold, or flame up in hot wilfulness and mastery.
尽管夜明灯发出微弱的光,她还是熟悉地穿过大大的房间和宽敞的走廊,徒劳地寻找她写到一半的诗歌集子,她之前不知道随手放哪儿了,现在刚刚想起来找。她打开客厅的灯,灯光下可以看到她身穿一件拖曳的长睡衣;睡衣是柔和的玫瑰色,颈前和两肩处的蕾丝让她透不过气来。她的戒指还戴在手指上,扎上去的一头黄发还没有披散下来。她清秀优雅,十分美丽,细长的鹅蛋脸上有两片朱唇,脸颊上泛着淡淡的红晕。一双蓝眼睛像变色龙一样随意变化,有时瞪得大大的,充满了孩童的无邪,有时变得锐利灰暗,闪耀着冷峻的目光,在狂热、固执和掌控一切时,目光还会变得如烈焰般火红。
She turned the lights off and passed out and down the hall toward the morning room. At the entrance she paused and listened. From farther on had come, not a noise, but an impression of movement. She could have sworn she had not heard anything, yet something had been different. The atmosphere of night quietude had been disturbed. She wondered what servant could be prowling about. Not the butler, who was notorious for retiring early save on special occasion. Nor could it be her maid, whom she had permitted to go that evening.
她关上灯,走出房间,沿着走廊向晨室走去。走到门口,她停住脚步留神听了听。远处有声音传来,但不是喧闹声,像是有人在活动。她本来可以确信自己什么都没听到,但这次有些不寻常之处。夜晚宁静的气氛被扰乱了。她在想是哪个仆人在鬼鬼祟祟地来回走动。不是那个男管家,众所周知,除了特殊的场合,他总是老早就睡了。也不可能是她的女仆,她已经批准女仆当晚外出了。
