The room was warm and cheerful in the firelight. The lamp on the table shed a quiet yellow glow on the four smooth heads bent to their needlework.

桌上的灯发出幽静的黄色光芒，照在四个女人光亮的头发上，她们就在这盏灯下埋头做针线。

They cast their yellow glows upward onto the black bull's head with its bloody horns, and onto the darkly glistening oil painting of the Old Duke.

他们将黄色的光芒向上投射到长着血腥牛角的黑色公牛头上，投射到老公爵那张暗黑闪闪的油画上。

Then Stephen put his hand upon Knight's arm, and they retired from the yellow glow, further, further, till the chill darkness enclosed them round, and the quiet sky asserted its presence overhead as a dim grey sheet of blank monotony.

然后史蒂芬把他的手放在奈特的手臂上，他们从黄色的光辉中退去，越来越远，直到寒冷的黑暗将他们包围起来，寂静的天空在头顶上呈现为一片空白单调的暗灰色床单。
