A waterspout had burst up among the moorlands, and the river, in its power, was at hand.
在沼泽地和河流之间,水直往上喷涌,眼看着就成了一汪洋。
I had, by cross-ways and by-paths, once more drawn near the tract of moorland; and now, only a few fields, almost as wild and unproductive as the heath from which they were scarcely reclaimed, lay between me and the dusky hill.
穿过交叉路口和小路,我又一次来到了沼泽地附近。现在,在我和昏暗的山丘之间,只有几块田地,几乎和几乎没有开垦过的荒地一样荒凉和贫瘠。
