CHAPTER 18 - Dr. Seward's Diary, part 2

"Good evening, Mr. Renfield," said she. "You see, I know you, for Dr. Seward has told me of you. " He made no immediate reply, but eyed her all over intently with a set frown on his face. This look gave way to one of wonder, which merged in doubt, then to my intense astonishment he said, "You're not the girl the doctor wanted to marry, are you? You can't be, you know, for she's dead." Mrs. Harker smiled sweetly as she replied, "Oh no! I have a husband of my own, to whom I was married before I ever saw Dr. Seward, or he me. I am Mrs. Harker." "Then what are you doing here?" "My husband and I are staying on a visit with Dr. Seward." "Then don't stay." "But why not?" I thought that this style of conversation might not be pleasant to Mrs. Harker, any more than it was to me, so I joined in, "How did you know I wanted to marry anyone?" His reply was simply contemptuous, given in a pause in which he turned his eyes from Mrs. Harker to me, instantly turning them back again,

"What an asinine question!" "I don't see that at all, Mr. Renfield," said Mrs. Harker, at once championing me. He replied to her with as much courtesy and respect as he had shown contempt to me, "You will, of course, understand, Mrs. Harker, that when a man is so loved and honoured as our host is, everything regarding him is of interest in our little community. Dr. Seward is loved not only by his household and his friends, but even by his patients, who, being some of them hardly in mental equilibrium, are apt to distort causes and effects. Since I myself have been an inmate of a lunatic asylum, I cannot but notice that the sophistic tendencies of some of its inmates lean towards the errors of non causa and ignoratio elenche." I positively opened my eyes at this new development. Here was my own pet lunatic, the most pronounced of his type that I had ever met with, talking elemental philosophy, and with the manner of a polished gentleman. I wonder if it was Mrs. Harker's presence which had touched some chord in his memory. If this new phase was spontaneous, or in any way due to her unconscious influence, she must have some rare gift or power.

"Good evening, Mr. Renfield," said she. "You see, I know you, for Dr. Seward has told me of you. "Sabe, eu conheço-o, pois o Dr. Seward falou-me de si. " He made no immediate reply, but eyed her all over intently with a set frown on his face. ||||||beobachtete||||||||||| " Ele não respondeu de imediato, mas olhou-a atentamente com uma carranca fixa no rosto.

You can’t be, you know, for she’s dead." Não podes ser, sabes, porque ela está morta". Mrs. Harker smiled sweetly as she replied, "Oh no! A Sra. Harker sorriu docemente e respondeu: "Oh não! I have a husband of my own, to whom I was married before I ever saw Dr. Seward, or he me. Tenho o meu próprio marido, com quem já estava casada antes de ter visto o Dr. Seward, ou ele a mim. I am Mrs. Eu sou a Sra. Harker." "Then what are you doing here?" "Então o que estão a fazer aqui?" "My husband and I are staying on a visit with Dr. "O meu marido e eu estamos numa visita com o dr. Seward." "Then don’t stay." "Então não fiques." "But why not?" I thought that this style of conversation might not be pleasant to Mrs. Harker, any more than it was to me, so I joined in, "How did you know I wanted to marry anyone?" Pensei que este estilo de conversa poderia não ser agradável à Sra. Harker, tal como não era para mim, por isso juntei-me a ela: "Como é que sabia que eu queria casar com alguém?" Bu tarz bir sohbetin Bayan Harker için benim için olduğu kadar hoş olmayacağını düşündüm, bu yüzden katıldım, "Biriyle evlenmek istediğimi nasıl anladın?" His reply was simply contemptuous, given in a pause in which he turned his eyes from Mrs. Harker to me, instantly turning them back again, ||||contemnitoriale|||||||||||||||||||| A sua resposta foi simplesmente desdenhosa, dada numa pausa em que ele virava os olhos da Sra.
