'Think of me more leniently
if you can
James
' said John Carker
'when I tell you I have had - how could I help having
with my history
written here' - striking himself upon the breast - 'my whole heart awakened by my observation of that boy
Walter Gay. I saw in him when he first came here
almost my other self.'
'Your other self!' repeated the Manager
disdainfully.
'Not as I am
but as I was when I first came here too; as sanguine
giddy
youthful
inexperienced; flushed with the same restless and adventurous fancies; and full of the same qualities
fraught with the same capacity of leading on to good or evil.'
“并不是现在的我，而是也是初到这里时的我，那时候我跟他一样乐观、轻率、年轻、没有经验，跟他一样扬扬得意地充满了永不平静、爱好冒险的幻想，跟他一样赋有能通向善良或通向邪恶的品质。”
'I hope not
' said his brother
with some hidden and sarcastic meaning in his tone.
'You strike me sharply; and your hand is steady
and your thrust is very deep
' returned the other
speaking (or so Walter thought) as if some cruel weapon actually stabbed him as he spoke. 'I imagined all this when he was a boy. I believed it. It was a truth to me. I saw him lightly walking on the edge of an unseen gulf where so many others walk with equal gaiety
and from which 'The old excuse
' interrupted his brother
as he stirred the fire. 'So many. Go on. Say
so many fall.''From which ONE traveller fell
' returned the other
'who set forward
on his way
a boy like him
and missed his footing more and more
and slipped a little and a little lower; and went on stumbling still
until he fell headlong and found himself below a shattered man. Think what I suffered
when I watched that boy.'
