"Well, then -- supposing them to be in London. They may be there, though, for the purpose of concealment, for no more exceptionable purpose. It is not likely that money should be very abundant on either side; and it might strike them that they could be more economically, though less expeditiously, married in London, than in Scotland."

“那么就假定他们在伦敦吧。他们到那儿去也许是为了暂时躲避一下,不会别有用心。他们两个人都没有多少钱;也许他们都会想到,在伦敦结婚虽然比不上在苏格兰结婚来得方便,可是要省俭些。”

"But why all this secrecy? Why any fear of detection? Why must their marriage be private? Oh! no, no, this is not likely. His most particular friend, you see by Jane's account, was persuaded of his never intending to marry her. Wickham will never marry a woman without some money. He cannot afford it. And what claims has Lydia, what attractions has she beyond youth, health, and good humour, that could make him, for her sake, forgo every chance of benefiting himself by marrying well? As to what restraint the apprehension of disgrace in the corps might throw on a dishonourable elopement with her, I am not able to judge; for I know nothing of the effects that such a step might produce. But as to your other objection, I am afraid it will hardly hold good. Lydia has no brothers to step forward; and he might imagine, from my father's behaviour, from his indolence and the little attention he has ever seemed to give to what was going forward in his family, that he would do as little, and think as little about it, as any father could do in such a matter."

“可是为什么要这样秘密?为什么怕给人家发觉?为什么结婚要偷偷摸摸?哦,不,不,你这种想法不切合实际。你不是看到吉英信里说吗──连他自己最要好的朋友也相信他不会跟她结婚。韦翰绝不会跟一个没有钱的女人结婚的。他根本办不到。丽迪雅除了年轻、健康、爱开玩笑之外,有什么办法、有什么吸引力,可以叫他为了她而放弃掉结婚致富的机会?至于他会不会怕这次羞耻的私奔使他自己在部队里丢面子,便把行为检点一下,那我就无法判断了,因为我无从知道他这一次的行为究竟会产生什么样的后果。但是你说的另外一点,我恐怕不大靠得住。丽迪雅的确没有个亲兄弟为她出头,他又看到我父亲平日为人懒散,不管家事,便以为他遇到这类事情,也会跟人家做父亲的一样,不肯多管,也不肯多想。”
"But can you think that Lydia is so lost to every thing but love of him, as to consent to live with him on any other terms than marriage?"
“可是你以为丽迪雅为了爱他,竟会不顾一切,可以不跟他结婚而跟他同居吗?”
