If fervent prayers, gushing from hearts overcharged with gratitude, be heard in heaven—and if they be not, what prayers are!

如果热切的祈祷，从充满感激之情的心中涌出，在天上被听到——如果没有，祈祷又算得了什么！

It was not a groan of pain or of grief — oh, no! — it was the low, stifled sound that arises from the bottom of the soul when overcharged with awe.

这不是痛苦或悲伤的呻吟——哦， 不！——是惊骇过度时， 从心底发出的压抑低沉的声音。
