Dracula - Bram Stoker, CHAPTER 13 - Dr. Seward's Diary, part 15

CHAPTER 13 - Dr. Seward's Diary, part 15

"Well, for the life of me, Professor," I said, "I can't see anything to laugh at in all that. Why, your expression makes it a harder puzzle than before. But even if the burial service was comic, what about poor Art and his trouble? Why his heart was simply breaking." "Just so. Said he not that the transfusion of his blood to her veins had made her truly his bride?" "Yes, and it was a sweet and comforting idea for him." "Quite so. But there was a difficulty, friend John. If so that, then what about the others? Ho, ho! Then this so sweet maid is a polyandrist, and me, with my poor wife dead to me, but alive by Church's law, though no wits, all gone, even I, who am faithful husband to this now-no-wife, am bigamist." "I don't see where the joke comes in there either!" I said, and I did not feel particularly pleased with him for saying such things. He laid his hand on my arm, and said,

"Friend John, forgive me if I pain. I showed not my feeling to others when it would wound, but only to you, my old friend, whom I can trust. If you could have looked into my heart then when I want to laugh, if you could have done so when the laugh arrived, if you could do so now, when King Laugh have pack up his crown, and all that is to him, for he go far, far away from me, and for a long, long time, maybe you would perhaps pity me the most of all." I was touched by the tenderness of his tone, and asked why.

"Because I know!" And now we are all scattered, and for many a long day loneliness will sit over our roofs with brooding wings. Lucy lies in the tomb of her kin, a lordly death house in a lonely churchyard, away from teeming London, where the air is fresh, and the sun rises over Hampstead Hill, and where wild flowers grow of their own accord.

So I can finish this diary, and God only knows if I shall ever begin another. If I do, or if I even open this again, it will be to deal with different people and different themes, for here at the end, where the romance of my life is told, ere I go back to take up the thread of my life-work, I say sadly and without hope, "FINIS".

"Well, for the life of me, Professor," I said, "I can't see anything to laugh at in all that. "Bem, pela minha vida, Professor", disse eu, "não consigo ver nada de que me possa rir em tudo isso. Why, your expression makes it a harder puzzle than before. A sua expressão torna-o um puzzle mais difícil do que antes. But even if the burial service was comic, what about poor Art and his trouble? Mas mesmo que o enterro tenha sido cómico, o que dizer do pobre Art e dos seus problemas? Why his heart was simply breaking." Porque o seu coração estava simplesmente a partir-se". "Just so. "É assim mesmo. Said he not that the transfusion of his blood to her veins had made her truly his bride?"

I was touched by the tenderness of his tone, and asked why. Fiquei comovido com a ternura do seu tom e perguntei-lhe porquê.

"Because I know!" And now we are all scattered, and for many a long day loneliness will sit over our roofs with brooding wings. E agora estamos todos dispersos, e durante muitos e longos dias a solidão vai pairar sobre os nossos telhados com asas de meditação.
