Selden, catching the glance, wondered what part Miss Bart had played in organizing the entertainment. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden, with a slight laugh, sat down beside her on the little sofa which projected from the hearth. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden followed her, and still without speaking they seated themselves on a bench beside the fountain. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden was rummaging in a cupboard for the cake. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
The performance over, Selden's first impulse was to seek Miss Bart. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Yet Selden's manner at the Brys' had brought the flutter of wings so close that they seemed to be beating in her own heart. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
By Jove, Selden's at Nice--I'll send for Selden! 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden had risen, and was standing before her in an attitude of uncontrollable expectancy. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden returned her look with a smile. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
But the hour sped on and Selden did not come. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden continued with a smile: You see no such scruples restrained me; but then I haven't as much to risk if I incur your displeasure. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
He had halted opposite the Trenors' corner, and Selden perforce stayed his steps also. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
A change had come over Selden's face as she spoke. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden had given her of his best; but he was as incapable as herself of an uncritical return to former states of feeling. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
For she could not go to Gerty's without risk of meeting Selden; and to meet him now would be pure pain. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
But the sense of loneliness returned with redoubled force as she saw herself forever shut out from Selden's inmost self. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
There had been a new look in her face--something different; yes, Selden agreed there had been something different. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
To Selden's exasperated observation she was only too completely alive to them. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden broke into a laugh. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden continued to stand near her, leaning against the mantelpiece. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
It was in Bertha's interest, certainly, that she had despatched Dorset to consult with Lawrence Selden. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden received this thrust without discomposure. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Well--Selden had twice been ready to stake his faith on Lily Bart; but the third trial had been too severe for his endurance. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
However doubtful she might feel her situation to be, she would rather persist in darkness than owe her enlightenment to Selden. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
But WERE such apparitions unwonted on Selden's stairs? 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Selden was hardly conscious of what she said. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
The mention of Selden's name had started a new train of thought. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Such a situation can be saved only by an immediate outrush of feeling; and on Selden's side the determining impulse was still lacking. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
The former, at Selden's approach, paused in the careful selection of a cigar from one of the silver boxes invitingly set out near the door. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
Dear Mr. Selden, that wasn't worthy of you. 伊迪丝·华顿.快乐之家.
