哈代《德伯家的苔丝》:
There are counterpoises and compensations in life.
人生的事情往往祸福相抵。
原文:
There are counterpoises and compensations in life;and the event which had made of her a social warning had also for the moment made her the most interesting personage in the village to many.
人生的事情往往祸福相抵;同是一件,即使苔丝成了大家警戒的榜样,又使她在许多人眼里成了村中最稀罕的人物。
