From the gallery window the tomb of her son was plainly visible—standing as the nearest object in a prospect which was closed outwardly by the changeless horizon of the sea.

从长廊可以清楚地看到她儿子坟墓——站在一个远景中最近物体，从外面被不变大海地平线所封闭。

She fell asleep, after a time, while from across the hall the bare feet still thudded over their changeless route; and she woke at seven, hearing Adams pass her door, shod.

过了一儿， 她睡着了，而穿过大厅赤脚仍然在他们一成不变路线上砰砰作响； 她七点醒来， 听到亚当斯穿过她门， 穿着鞋。

Every leaf was at rest in the sunshine, the familiar scene was changeless, and seemed to represent the prospect of her life, full of motiveless ease — motiveless, if her own energy could not seek out reasons for ardent action.

每一片叶子都在阳光下静止，熟悉景象一成不变，似乎代表着她人生前景，充满了无动机安逸——无动机，如果她自己能量无法找到热切行动理由。
