🔊 As intensely as Anna had longed to see her son, and long as she had been thinking of it and preparing herself for it, she had not in the least expected that seeing him would affect her so deeply. On getting back to her lonely rooms in the hotel she could not for a long while understand why she was there. "Yes, it’s all over, and I am again alone," she said to herself, and without taking off her hat she sat down in a low chair by the hearth. Fixing her eyes on a bronze clock standing on a table between the windows, she tried to think.

尽管安娜渴望见到儿子,这份渴望如此强烈,她思虑已久,也做好了准备,却万万没料到,见到他会让自己如此震撼。回到旅馆那间孤寂的房间后,她好一会儿都无法理解自己为何会在那里。“是的,一切都结束了,我又是一个人了,”她对自己说,连帽子也没摘,就在壁炉旁的一把矮椅上坐了下来。她凝视着窗户之间桌子上的一只青铜钟,试图理清思绪。

🔊 The French maid brought from abroad came in to suggest she should dress. She gazed at her wonderingly and said, "Presently." A footman offered her coffee. "Later on," she said. The Italian nurse, after having taken the baby out in her best, came in with her, and brought her to Anna. The plump, well-fed little baby, on seeing her mother, as she always did, held out her fat little hands, and with a smile on her toothless mouth, began, like a fish with a float, bobbing her fingers up and down the starched folds of her embroidered skirt, making them rustle. It was impossible not to smile, not to kiss the baby, impossible not to hold out a finger for her to clutch, crowing and prancing all over; impossible not to offer her a lip which she sucked into her little mouth by way of a kiss. And all this Anna did, and took her in her arms and made her dance, and kissed her fresh little cheek and bare little elbows; but at the sight of this child it was plainer than ever to her that the feeling she had for her could not be called love in comparison with what she felt for Seryozha. Everything in this baby was charming, but for some reason all this did not go deep to her heart. On her first child, though the child of an unloved father, had been concentrated all the love that had never found satisfaction. Her baby girl had been born in the most painful circumstances and had not had a hundredth part of the care and thought which had been concentrated on her first child. Besides, in the little girl everything was still in the future, while Seryozha was by now almost a personality, and a personality dearly loved. In him there was a conflict of thought and feeling; he understood her, he loved her, he judged her, she thought, recalling his words and his eyes. And she was forever—not physically only but spiritually—divided from him, and it was impossible to set this right.

从国外带来的法国女仆走进来,建议她更衣。她惊奇地看着女仆,说道:“等一会儿。”一个男仆端来咖啡。“待会儿再说,”她说。意大利保姆带着打扮得漂漂亮亮的小女孩进来,把孩子带到安娜面前。那个胖乎乎、养得白白嫩嫩的小婴儿,一见到母亲,就像往常一样,伸出胖乎乎的小手,咧着没牙的嘴笑着,像一条鱼浮在水面似的,把手指在绣花裙的硬挺褶皱间上下摆动,弄得沙沙作响。她不禁笑了,吻了吻婴儿,伸出一根手指让婴儿紧紧抓住,婴儿咯咯笑着,手舞足蹈；她还忍不住把嘴唇凑过去,让婴儿用小嘴吸吮,当作亲吻。这一切安娜都做了,她抱起婴儿,让她跳舞,亲吻她粉嫩的小脸颊和光溜溜的小胳膊；但看着这个孩子,她却比任何时候都更清楚地意识到,与她对谢廖扎的感情相比,她对这孩子的情感简直称不上爱。这个婴儿身上的一切都很可爱,但不知为何,这一切都无法深入她的内心。她的第一个孩子,尽管出自一个她不爱的父亲,却凝聚了她所有从未得到满足的爱。她的女儿是在最痛苦的境况下出生的,得到的关怀和思虑还不及第一个孩子的百分之一。况且,小女孩的一切都还等着未来去展开,而谢廖扎已经几乎是一个独立的个体了,一个深受珍爱的个体。她想着他当时的话语和眼神,觉得在他身上存在着思想和情感的冲突；他理解她,爱她,也在评判她。而她与他在精神上--并非仅仅是肉体上--永远地分开了,这种局面已无法挽回。

🔊 She gave the baby back to the nurse, let her go, and opened the locket in which there was Seryozha’s portrait when he was almost of the same age as the girl. She got up, and, taking off her hat, took up from a little table an album in which there were photographs of her son at different ages. She wanted to compare them, and began taking them out of the album. She took them all out except one, the latest and best photograph. In it he was in a white smock, sitting astride a chair, with frowning eyes and smiling lips. It was his best, most characteristic expression. With her little supple hands, her white, delicate fingers, that moved with a peculiar intensity today, she pulled at a corner of the photograph, but the photograph had caught somewhere, and she could not get it out. There was no paper-knife on the table, and so, pulling out the photograph that was next to her son’s (it was a photograph of Vronsky taken at Rome in a round hat and with long hair), she used it to push out her son’s photograph. "Oh, here is he!" she said, glancing at the portrait of Vronsky, and she suddenly recalled that he was the cause of her present misery. She had not once thought of him all the morning. But now, coming all at once upon that manly, noble face, so familiar and so dear to her, she felt a sudden rush of love for him. "But where is he? How is it he leaves me alone in my misery?" she thought all at once with a feeling of reproach, forgetting she had herself kept from him everything concerning her son.

她把婴儿交还给保姆,让她离开,然后打开了那个装有谢廖扎照片的小盒,照片上的他差不多和女儿现在一样大。她站起身来,脱下帽子,从一张小桌上拿起一本相册,里面存放着她儿子不同年龄的照片。她想对比一下,便开始把照片从相册里抽出来。她把所有的照片都抽了出来,只留下最新、最好的一张。照片上的他穿着白色罩衫,跨坐在椅子上,眉头微蹙,嘴角含笑。这是他最典型、最传神的表情。她用那双小巧柔软的手、白皙纤细的手指--今天它们似乎格外灵巧--使劲扯着照片的一角,但照片卡住了,怎么也拿不出来。桌上没有裁纸刀,于是她抽出紧挨着儿子照片的那一张（那是<<<弗龙斯基>>在<<<罗马>>拍的照片,戴着圆帽,留着长发）,用它把儿子的照片推了出来。“哦,他在这里！”她瞥了一眼<<<弗龙斯基>>的照片,说道,突然想起正是他造成了自己目前的痛苦。整个上午她一次也没想到过他。可现在,猛然看到这张熟悉而亲切的、充满男子气概与高贵气质的面孔,一股对他的爱意突然涌上心头。“可他在哪儿？他怎么忍心让我独自承受这种痛苦？”她突然带着责备的意味想道,忘记了自己一直向他隐瞒了关于儿子的一切。

🔊 She sent to ask him to come to her immediately; with a throbbing heart she awaited him, rehearsing to herself the words in which she would tell him all, and the expressions of love with which he would console her. The messenger returned with the answer that he had a visitor with him, but that he would come immediately, and that he asked whether she would let him bring with him Prince Yashvin, who had just arrived in Petersburg. "He’s not coming alone, and since dinner yesterday he has not seen me," she thought; "he’s not coming so that I could tell him everything, but coming with Yashvin." And all at once a strange idea came to her: what if he had ceased to love her?

她派人去请他马上过来；她心跳加速地等着他,心里默默演练着要告诉他的所有事情,以及他安慰她时会说的那些爱语。仆人回来禀报说,他那儿有客人,但他马上就来,还问她是否允许他带上刚抵达<<<彼得堡>>的<<<亚什温>>亲王。“他不是一个人来,而且从昨天午饭后就没见过我,”她想,“他不是来让我倾诉一切的,而是和<<<亚什温>>一起来。”忽然,一个奇怪的念头涌上心头:难道他已经不爱她了吗？

🔊 "But he ought to tell me so. I must know that it is so. If I knew it, then I know what I should do," she said to herself, utterly unable to picture to herself the position she would be in if she were convinced of his not caring for her. She thought he had ceased to love her, she felt close upon despair, and consequently she felt exceptionally alert. She rang for her maid and went to her dressing-room. As she dressed, she took more care over her appearance than she had done all those days, as though he might, if he had grown cold to her, fall in love with her again because she had dressed and arranged her hair in the way most becoming to her.

“可他应该告诉我。我必须知道真相。如果我知道了,我就知道该怎么做,”她对自己说,完全无法想象一旦确信他不再在乎自己,自己会陷入怎样的处境。她以为他已经不再爱她,感到几近绝望,因此反而异常警醒。她按铃叫来女仆,走进化妆间。她穿戴时,比这些天来任何时候都更注重打扮,仿佛如果他真的已经对她冷淡,她这般精心妆扮,便能让他重新爱上自己。

"I know you and all your tastes, though I have seen so little of you."
