A thing there was that mattered; a thing, wreathed about with chatter, defaced, obscured in her own life, let drop every day in corruption, lies, chatter. This he had preserved. Death was defiance.

再说还有那种恐怖感，那种强烈的无能为力的感觉，因为父母把这条生命交到你手里的时候期望你活到老，期望你宁静地与其同行，而你却不能。
Then (she had felt it only this morning) there was the terror; the overwhelming incapacity, one's parents giving it into one's hands, this life, to be lived to the end, to be walked with serenely; there was in the depths of her heart an awful fear. (查看原文)
