My place

I was frightened when I became conscious of the trend of my thought. The continual brutality around me was degenerative in its effect. It bid fair to destroy for me all that was best and brightest in life. My reason dictated that the beating Thomas Mugridge had received was an ill thing, and yet for the life of me I could not prevent my soul joying in it.

我意識自己的思想傾向，頓時震驚的感覺湧上了心頭。接連的粗俗魯莽，環繞並且腐蝕著我。那種事情，足以毀壞在我生命中，所有最美好也最光采的存在。理性告訴我，毆打湯瑪斯慕格利基是非德的行為，可是我無法阻止自己的靈魂為之感到喜悅。
