" I was thinking about our 'Pilgrim's Progress', " answered Beth, who had not heard a word.

“刚才正们‘天路历程’呢，”贝思答道，她先前一个字没有听进去。

Like Pilgrim in John Bunyan's epic, I had come to a place where the straight way was lost.

正如约翰·班扬史诗巨著《天路历程》中朝圣之路，到了这样一个地方，前方再无直行道路。

" Then mebbe they're—they're— What do you call 'em, Cap'n Bill? Something 'bout the Pilgrim's Progress, you know" .

“那他们是——他们是——你怎称呼他们， 比尔船长？关于天路历程事， 你知道” 。

" The idea of being afraid of you! Well, you see we used to play Pilgrim's Progress, and we have been going on with it in earnest, all winter and summer."

“会怕你！好吧，你知道们常做‘天路历程’游戏，并且们不论寒暑一直是诚心诚意做。”
