日期:2022-07-21 Philip did not surrender himself willingly to the passion that consumed him. He knew that all things human are transitory and therefore that it must cease one day or another. He looked forward to that day with eager longing. Love was like a parasite... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 He saw her then every day. He began going to lunch at the shop, but Mildred stopped him: she said it made the girls talk; so he had to content himself with tea; but he always waited about to walk with her to the station; and once or twice a week the... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 They dined in Soho. Philip was tremulous with joy. It was not one of the more crowded of those cheap restaurants where the respectable and needy dine in the belief that it is bohemian and the assurance that it is economical. It was a humble establis... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Philip passed the evening wretchedly. He had told his landlady that he would not be in, so there was nothing for him to eat, and he had to go to Gattis for dinner. Afterwards he went back to his rooms, but Griffiths on the floor above him was having... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Philip woke early next morning, and his first thought was of Mildred. It struck him that he might meet her at Victoria Station and walk with her to the shop. He shaved quickly, scrambled into his clothes, and took a bus to the station. He was there... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Philip arrived at Victoria Station nearly half an hour before the time which Mildred had appointed, and sat down in the second-class waiting-room. He waited and she did not come. He began to grow anxious, and walked into the station watching the inc... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Saturday. It was the day on which he had promised to pay his landlady. He had been expecting something to turn up all through the week. He had found no work. He had never been driven to extremities before, and he was so dazed that he did not know wh... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Philips ideas of the life of medical students, like those of the public at large, were founded on the pictures which Charles Dickens drew in the middle of the nineteenth century. He soon discovered that Bob Sawyer, if he ever existed, was no longer... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 The examination Philip had passed before he was articled to a chartered accountant was sufficient qualification for him to enter a medical school. He chose St. Lukes because his father had been a student there, and before the end of the summer sessi... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Taking the paper with him Mr. Carey retired to his study. Philip changed his chair for that in which his uncle had been sitting (it was the only comfortable one in the room), and looked out of the window at the pouring rain. Even in that sad weather... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Next day Philip arrived at Blackstable. Since the death of his mother he had never lost anyone closely connected with him; his aunts death shocked him and filled him also with a curious fear; he felt for the first time his own mortality. He could no... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Two months passed. It seemed to Philip, brooding over these matters, that in the true painters, writers, musicians, there was a power which drove them to such complete absorption in their work as to make it inevitable for them to subordinate life to... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Philip could not get the unhappy event out of his head. What troubled him most was the uselessness of Fannys effort. No one could have worked harder than she, nor with more sincerity; she believed in herself with all her heart; but it was plain that... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 The story which Philip made out in one way and another was terrible. One of the grievances of the women-students was that Fanny Price would never share their gay meals in restaurants, and the reason was obvious: she had been oppressed by dire povert... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 When Philip returned to Amitranos he found that Fanny Price was no longer working there. She had given up the key of her locker. He asked Mrs. Otter whether she knew what had become of her; and Mrs. Otter, with a shrug of the shoulders, answered tha... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 In March there was all the excitement of sending in to the Salon. Clutton, characteristically, had nothing ready, and he was very scornful of the two heads that Lawson sent; they were obviously the work of a student, straight-forward portraits of mo... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-21 Philip did not find living in Paris as cheap as he had been led to believe and by February had spent most of the money with which he started. He was too proud to appeal to his guardian, nor did he wish Aunt Louisa to know that his circumstances were... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-18 On Tuesdays and Fridays masters spent the morning at Amitranos, criticising the work done. In France the painter earns little unless he paints portraits and is patronised by rich Americans; and men of reputation are glad to increase their incomes by... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-18 There was a general disturbance. Flanagan and two or three more went on to the music-hall, while Philip walked slowly with Clutton and Lawson to the Closerie des Lilas. You must go to the Gaite Montparnasse, said Lawson to him. Its one of the loveli... 阅读全文>> 日期:2022-07-18 Philip walked down the Boulevard du Montparnasse. It was not at all like the Paris he had seen in the spring during his visit to do the accounts of the Hotel St. Georgeshe thought already of that part of his life with a shudderbut reminded him of wh... 阅读全文>> |
