Audiobook Dictation: “She had married a vulgar man…”

She had married a vulgar man; and, though she had not become like the man, she had become vulgar.

Ia telah menikahi pria yang kasar; dan, meski ia tidak menjadi seperti pria itu, ia menjadi kasar.

She was not an eligible companion for Mr. Wharton's daughter,--a matter as to which the father had not given himself proper opportunities of learning the facts.

Ia bukan teman yang pantas bagi putri Tuan Wharton,--perkara yang tidak pernah sungguh-sungguh diselidiki sang ayah.

An aunt in his close neighbourhood was so great a comfort to him,--so ready and so natural an assistance to him in his difficulties!

Seorang bibi yang tinggal begitu dekat sungguh menjadi penghiburan besar baginya,--bantuan yang begitu sigap dan wajar dalam kesulitannya!

But Emily Wharton was not in the least like her aunt, nor had Mrs. Wharton been at all like Mrs. Roby.

Namun Emily Wharton sama sekali tidak mirip bibinya, begitu pula Nyonya Wharton dahulu sama sekali tidak mirip Nyonya Roby.

No doubt the contact was dangerous.

Tak diragukan, pergaulan itu berbahaya.

Injury had perhaps already been done.

Barangkali kerusakan sudah terjadi.

It may be that some slightest soil had already marred the pure white of the girl's natural character.

Mungkin noda sekecil apa pun telah mencemari putih bersihnya watak alami gadis itu.

But if so, the stain was as yet too impalpable to be visible to ordinary eyes.

Namun jika memang ada, noda itu masih terlalu samar untuk terlihat oleh mata biasa.

Emily Wharton was a tall, fair girl, with grey eyes, rather exceeding the average proportions as well as height of women.

Emily Wharton adalah gadis jangkung berkulit terang, bermata kelabu, yang agak melebihi rata-rata perempuan dalam perawakan maupun tinggi badan.
