Now and then a maid-servant, neatly dressed, and now the shining sable face of a slave, might be seen bustling across the windows, in the lower part of the house.

时不时地，一个衣着整洁的女仆，现在是一个发亮的黑貂脸，能会在房子的下户上熙熙攘攘地走来走去。

When night drew her sable curtains around, the picturesque of the scene was still more heightened.

当夜幕拉上她的黑貂帘时， 这幅风景画更加更加突出。
