My dear father and mother,
我親愛的爸爸和媽媽,
We arrived here last night, highly pleased with our journey, and the occasion of it. May God bless you both with long life and health, to enjoy your sweet farm, and pretty dwelling, which is just what I wished it to be. And don’t make your grateful hearts too uneasy in the possession of it, by your modest diffidence of your own unworthiness: for, at the same time, that it is what will do honour to the best of men, it is not so very extraordinary, considering his condition, as to cause any one to censure it as the effect of a too partial and injudicious kindness for the parents of one whom he delighteth to honour.

我們昨晚抵達這裡,對我們的旅程本身及其時間感到非常滿意。願上帝保佑您二老長命百歲、身體健康,儘情享受你們美好的農場和美麗的居所,正如我所希望的那樣。你們不要因為感激或過於謙虛不自信而不願接受它:同時,這是授予最好的人的榮譽。鑒於他的情況,這並不算是太好,這樣就沒有人會指責他對喜歡之人的父母過於偏心,說他不明智。
My dear master(why should I not still call him so, bound to reverence him as I am, in every light he can shine in to the most obliged and sensible heart?)still proposes to fit up the large parlour and three apartments in the commodious dwelling he calls yours, for his entertainment and mine, when I pay my duty to you both, for a few happy days; and he has actually given orders to that effect; and that the three
我親愛的主人(為什麼我不應該這樣稱呼他來表達對他的尊敬?他在散發著光芒,能照亮每一個敏感的心裡。)仍然建議裝修那個帶著一個客廳和三間公寓的寬敞的住宅,他稱呼那個住宅為你們的住宅,這是我和他的一份心意,我也儘儘孝心,讓你們過幾天幸福的日子。他已經為此發出了命令,而且這三間公寓裝修得太好了,相比於他自己更適合你們居住。因為他說,房間要簡潔雅致,家具也需如此,這是他退休到此的不同之處。這樣
apartments be so fitted up, as to be rather suitable to your condition, than his own; for, he says, the plain simple elegance, which he will have observed in the Rooms as well as the furniture, will be a variety in his retirement to this place, that will make him return to his own with the greater pleasure; and at the same time, when we are not there, will be of use for the reception of any of your friends; and so he shall not, as he kindly says, rob the good couple of any of their accommodations.
他會找回自己,更加快樂。同時,當我們不在那裡時,可以用它來接待你們的朋友;所以他善意地說,他絕不會搶占一對佳偶的任何住所。
