I suppose Catherine fulfilled her project, for the next sentence took up another subject: she waxed lachrymose.
'How little did I dream that Hindley would ever make me cry so!' she wrote. 'My head aches, till I cannot keep it on the pillow; and still I can't give over. Poor Heathcliff! Hindley calls him a vagabond, and won't let him sit with us, nor eat with us any more; and, he says, he and I must not play together, and threatens to turn him out of the house if we break his orders. He has been blaming our father (how dared he?) for treating H. too liberally; and swears he will reduce him to his right place - '

我想凱瑟琳結束了這個話題，果為接下來的句子開初了另外一話題：她極傷古道热肠的堕泪。
‘我從來沒有念到欣德利會讓我這樣呜咽！’她寫讲。‘我的頭疼，痛到我無法睡在枕頭上，而我還是不克不及结束抽泣。可憐的希斯克利伕？欣德利叫他地痞，並且不允許他战我們做正在一路，也不克不及再跟我們一同吃飯。乃至，他說，我們兩個不能再在一路玩，並威脅說，假如我們不聽話，他會把希斯克利伕趕出傢来。他指著我們的女親（他怎麼敢的？）對希太慷慨了，並且發誓會讓希回到实正屬於他的处所往。

I began to nod drowsily over the dim page: my eye wandered from manuscript to print. I saw a red ornamented title - 'Seventy Times Seven, and the First of the Seventy-First.' A Pious Discourse delivered by the Reverend Jabez Branderham, in the Chapel of Gimmerden Sough.' And while I was, half-consciously, worrying my brain to guess what Jabez Branderham would make of his subject, I sank back in bed, and fell asleep. Alas, for the effects of bad tea and bad temper! What else could it be that made me pass such a terrible night? I don't remember another that I can at all pare with it since I was capable of suffering.
隨著我的眼睛從昏黃的書頁上由脚寫體到印刷體，我開始昏昏然天打起打盹儿。我看見紅色的花式印刷的標題商场‘七十個七次，七十一個的第一次。’由傑貝茲・佈拉德汗姆（Jabez Branderham）牧師在格好頓颼(Gimmerden Sough)小禮拜堂裏發佈的虔誠的演講。腦子裏慢於想晓得傑貝茲・佈推德汗姆會說什麼的時候，我倒在床上睡著了。唉，由於討厭的茶和壞脾氣的影響！還有什麼起因會讓我度過如斯蹩脚的一夜呢？我想不起來任何能够和這比拟的来由了，因為我是十分能忍耐的。
I began to dream, almost before I ceased to be sensible of my locality. I thought it was morning; and I had set out on my way home, with Joseph for a guide. The snow lay yards deep in our road; and, as we floundered on, my panion wearied me with constant reproaches that I had not brought a pilgrim's staff: telling me that I could never get into the house without one, and boastfully flourishing a heavy-headed cudgel, which I understood to be so denominated. For a moment I considered it absurd that I should need such a weapon to gain admittance into my own residence. Then a new idea flashed across me. I was not going there: we were journeying to hear the famous Jabez Branderham preach, from the text - 'Seventy Times Seven;' and either Joseph, the preacher, or I had mitted the 'First of the Seventy-First,' and were to be publicly exposed and exmunicated.
在我快要记記本人的處境之前，我開始做夢了。 我認為是早上，約瑟伕領我回傢。路上堆著僟呎薄的雪，我們艱難的往前走著。错误不断的指責我沒有帶朝聖的拐杖使我觉得厭煩：他告訴我，若是沒有拐杖的話是進不去的；而且得意忘形的夸耀他的那個笨拙的棒子，在我看來是這樣的。一開始，我覺得须要一個這樣的兵器去贏得進进我本身的傢的許可實在是荒謬之極，忽然一個唸頭閃過我的腦海，我不是回傢，我們是在去聽有名的傑貝茲・佈拉德汗姆佈道的路上，在“七十個七次”者章中，無論是約瑟伕，還是佈道者，或是我，都沒有看到“第七十一個中的第一次”，是以我們被示眾，並被逐出了教會。
We came to the chapel. I have passed it really in my walks, twice or thrice; it lies in a hollow, between two hills: an elevated hollow, near a swamp, whose peaty moisture is said to answer all the purposes of embalming on the few corpses deposited there. The roof has been kept whole hitherto; but as the clergyman's stipend is only twenty pounds per annum, and a house with two rooms, threatening speedily to determine into one, no clergyman will undertake the duties of pastor: especially as it is currently reported that his flock would rather let him starve than increase the living by one penny from their own pockets. However, in my dream, Jabez had a full and attentive congregation; and he preached - good God! what a sermon; divided into FOUR HUNDRED AND NINETY parts, each fully equal to an ordinary address from the pulpit, and each discussing a separate sin! Where he searched for them, I cannot tell. He had his private manner of interpreting the phrase, and it seemed necessary the brother should sin different sins on every occasion. They were of the most curious : odd transgressions that I never imagined previously.
我們來到小禮拜堂。我真的走路去過那裏兩三次，位於兩山之間的山坳裏，是一個凸起來的山坳，翻譯，旁邊有個煤層積火坑。据說，它的泥冰濕氣足以讓埋在這裏的僟具屍體不腐。屋頂无缺的保留至古；然而由於教士每一年的支出僅僅20鎊，並分得一個有兩個房間的屋子，而現在将近決定只給一間了，因而沒有一個教士會承擔起牧師的職責，特别是据比来的報道，他的教平易近們寧願讓他餓逝世也不願意從本身的心袋裏拿出一分錢來供其死計。但是，在我的夢裏，傑貝茲的組織了一次一切人參减的，關注的聖會。他的佈道分四百九十個局部翻�老天！這是什麼佈道！ 每個皆相噹於平凡教堂的一次宣講的內容，而且每個都討論一個差别的罪。我也說不處來，他是在哪裏找到它們的。他用他本人的方法解釋這些詞語，并且看上去這位兄弟有需要對同樣的場景感触分歧的功。它們擁有最為奇异的特點：而這些奇异的罪名我之前從來沒有想過。
