At the top of a three-story building, Sue and Johnsy had their studio. 格林威治村是个艺术人士聚集的地方，他们在那里寻找窗户朝北且租金低廉的公寓。苏和约翰西的画室就在一座三层楼的顶楼。 In November, a cold, unseen stranger, whom the doctors called Pneumonia, arrived in Greenwich Village. Mr Pneumonia placed his icy finger on Johnsy; and she lay, barely moving, in her bed staring at a blank wall under her blanket. 十一月的时候，一个冷酷无情、肉眼看不见、医生称之为“肺炎”的不速之客，来到了格林威治村。“肺炎先生”把他冰冷的手指放在约翰西身上，于是她躺在床上，几乎不动，盖着毯子，眼睛盯着一堵空墙。 The doctor took Sue aside and claimed, “She has one chance in—let us say, ten. And that chance is for her to want to live. Try to encourage her to think more hopeful thoughts, about the future, about living.” 医生把苏拉到一边，说：“她的病只有，这么说吧，只有一成希望，这一成希望在于她自己要不要活下去。试着鼓励她多想想有希望的事情、想想未来、想想活下去。” Sue took some paper and a pen into Johnsy’s room and began a pen drawing, in an attempt to raise Johnsy’s spirits. Johnsy’s eyes were open, but they weren’t watching her. Instead, she stared out the window and counted backwards: “Ten, nine, eight, seven ...” 苏拿了几张纸和一支钢笔来到约翰西的房间，开始画钢笔画，试着让约翰西打起精神。约翰西的眼睛是睁着的，但并没有看苏。相反，她望向窗外，倒数着：“十，九，八，七……” “What are you counting, dear?” asked Sue. “They’re falling faster now,” replied Johnsy. “Three days ago there were almost a hundred. But now it’s easy. There are only five left now. Five leaves on the ivy vine. When the last one falls, I must go, too. Didn’t the doctor tell you?” “你在数什么啊，亲爱的?”苏问道。“它们现在掉得更快了，三天前差不多还有一百来片。现在数起来容易了，只剩下五片了。常春藤上有五片叶子。当最后一片掉下来的时候，我就要离开人世了，难道医生没有说吗?”约翰西回答说。 “Oh, I never heard of such nonsense,” quickly replied Sue. But Johnsy’s mind was made up. “I want to see the last one fall. I’m tired of waiting. I want to go sailing down, down, just like one ofthose poor, tired leaves.” “哦，我从未听过这么荒谬的话。”苏立刻答到。但是约翰西决心已定。“我想看着最后一片叶子掉下来，我已经等腻了。我想随风而逝，就像一片可怜的、疲倦的藤叶一样。” “Try to sleep,” said Sue.
