再来一段
在这样的一天里，九月或十月，瓦尔登是森林的一面十全十美的明镜，它四面用石子镶边，我看它们是珍贵而稀世的。再没有什么像这一个躺卧在大地表面的湖沼这样美，这样纯洁，同时又这样大。秋水长天。它不需要一个篱笆。民族来了，去了，都不能玷污它。这一面明镜，石子敲不碎它，它的水银永远擦不掉，它的外表的装饰，大自然经常地在那里弥补；没有风暴，没有尘垢，能使它常新的表面黯淡无光；——这一面镜子，如果有任何不洁落在它面上，马上就沉淀，太阳的雾意的刷子常在拂拭它，——这是光的拭尘布，——呵气在上，也留不下形迹，成了云它就从水面飘浮到高高的空中，却又立刻把它反映在它的胸怀中了。
In such a day, in September or October, Walden is a perfect forest mirror, set round with stones as precious to my eye as if fewer or rarer. Nothing so fair, so pure, and at the same time so large, as a lake, perchance, lies on the surface of the earth. Sky water. It needs no fence. Nations come and go without defiling it. It is a mirror which no stone can crack, whose quicksilver will never wear off, whose gilding Nature continually repairs; no storms, no dust, can dim its surface ever fresh;--a mirror in which all impurity presented to it sinks, swept and dusted by the sun's hazy brush--this the light dust-cloth--which retains no breath that is breathed on it, but sends its own to float as clouds high above its surface, and be reflected in its bosom still. |
