0 DeProfundis Epistola:InCarcareetVinculus[0.1] [January-March 1897] H.M.Prison,Reading 自深深处 囚于铁窗锁链中的一封信 朱纯深 译 雷丁监狱 1897年 1-3月 0 1 Dear Bosie, After long and fruitless waiting I have determined to write to you myself, as much for your sake as for mine, as I would not like to think that I had passed through two long years of imprisonment without everhaving received a single line from you, or any news or message even, except suchasgavemepain[1a]. 亲爱的波西： 经过长久的、毫无结果的等待之后，我决定还是由我写信给你，为了我也为了你。因为我不想 看到自己在漫长的两年囚禁中，除了使我痛心的传闻外，连你的一行书信，甚至一点消息或口信都 没收到[1a]。 1 2 Ourill-fated and most lamentable friendship has ended in ruin and public infamy forme[2a],yet the memory of our ancient affection is often with me[2b], and the thought that loathing, bitterness and contempt should for ever take that place in my heart once held by love is very sad to me[2c]: and you yourself will,I think,feel in yourheart that to write to me as I lie in the loneliness of prison-life is better than to publish my letters without my permission or to dedicate poems to me unasked, though the world will know nothing of whatever words of grief or passion, of remorse or indifference you may choose to sendasyouransweroryourappeal[2d]. 我们之间坎坷不幸、令人痛心疾首的友谊，已经以我的身败名裂而告结束[2a]。但是，那 段久远的情意却常在记忆中伴随着我[2b]，而一想到自己心中那曾经盛着爱的地方，就要永远让憎 恨和苦涩、轻蔑和屈辱所占据，我就会感到深深的悲哀[2c]。你自己心中，我想，将会感到，当我 孤独地卧在铁窗内服刑时，给我写信要胜过未经许可发表我的书信、或者自作主张地为我献诗；虽 然这样世人将一点也不知道你的所为，不管你选择怎样充满悲哀或激情、悔恨或冷漠的言辞来回应 或者叫屈[2d]。 2
