" Overgrown with heth and mosse, " says Leland of the same dark sweep of country.

利兰也提到过这一片苍莽荒原，说是“灌木丛生，苔藓遍地”。

" 'Tis very lonesome for 'ee in the heth tonight, mis'ess, " said Christian, coming from the seclusion he had hitherto maintained.

“今天晚上你一个人到荒原上来，很孤单吧，太太，”克里斯廷说道，一边从他躲着的地方走出来。

" Don't ye think we'd better get home-along, neighbours? The heth isn't haunted, I know; but we'd better get home....Ah, what was that? "

“乡亲们，是不是该回家了？我知道，荒原上不闹鬼；不过，我们最好还是回家吧… … 啊，那是什么？”
