Y: VAIN LONGING:
劳动节活动 One is an immortal flower of fairyland,
The other fair flawless jade,
And were it not predestined,
Why should they meet again in this existence?
Yet, if predestined,
Why does their love come to nothing?
One sighs to no purpo,
The other yearns in vain;
One is the moon reflected in the water,
The other but a flower in the mirror.
桌球技巧 How many tears can well from her eyes?
Can they flow on from autumn till winter,
From spring till summer?
冥花 H: HOPE BETRAYED:
美妆工具 One was a flower from paradi,
One a pure jade without spot or stain.
If each of the other one was not intended,
Then why in this life did they meet again?
And yet if fate had meant them for each other,
why was their earthly meeting all in vain?
In vain were all his anxious fears:
All, insubstantial, doomed to pass,
As moonlight mirrored in the water
Or flowers reflected in a glass.内蒙羊肉
How many tears from tho poor eyes could flow,
Which every ason rained upon her woe?

Y: SPURNED BY THE WORLD:
By nature fair as an orchid,
With talents to match an immortal,
Yet so eccentric that all marvel at her.
To her, rich food stinks.
Silken raiment is vulgar and loathsome;
She knows not that superiority fosters hatred,
For the world despid too much purity.
By the dim light of an old shrine she will fade away,
Her powder and red chamber, her youth and beauty wasted,
To end, despite herlf, defiled on the dusty road——
Even as flawless white jade dropped in the mud.
In vain young scions of noble hou will sigh for her.
H: ALL AT ODDS:
Heaven made you like a flower,
With grace and wit to match the gods,
Adding a strange, contrary nature
That t you with the rest at odds.
Nauous to you the world's rank diet,
Vulgar its fashion's gaudy dress:
But the world envies the superior
身拼音
And hates a too precious daintiness.
Sad it emed that your life should in dim-lit shrines be wasted,
All the sweets of spring untasted:
Yet, at the last,
Down into mud and shame your hopes were cast,
Like a white, flawless jade dropped in the muck,
Where only wealthy rakes might bless their luck.
46、：尘世中多少富贵之家，那些绿窗风⽉，绣阁烟霞，皆被*污纨□与那些流荡⼥⼦悉皆玷辱。更可恨者，⾃古来多少轻薄浪⼦，皆以“好⾊不*”为饰，⼜以“情⽽不*”作案，此皆饰⾮掩丑之语也。好⾊即*，知情更*。是以巫⼭之会，云⾬之欢，皆由既悦其⾊、复恋其情所致也。吾所爱汝者，乃天下古今第⼀*⼈也。
Y: In your dusty world, countless green-windowed chambers and embroidered boudoirs of rich and noble families are decrated by amorous men and loo women. Wor still, all dissolute wretches since ancient times have drawn a distinction between love of beauty and carnal desire, between love and lust, so as to gloss over their immorality. love of beauty leads to lust, and desire even more so. Thus every xual transport of cloud and rain is the inevitable climax of love of beauty and desire.
And what I like about you is that you are the most lustful man ever to have lived in this world since time immemorial.
H: In the rich and noble houholds of your mortal world, too many of tho bowers and boudoirs where innocent tenderness and sweet girlish fantasy should reign are injuriously defiled by coar young voluptuaries and loo, wanton girls. And what is even more detestable, there are always any number of worthless philanderers to protest that it is woman's beauty alone that inspires them, or loving feelings alone, unsullied by any taint of lust. They lie in their teeth! To be moved by woman's beauty is itlf a kind of lust. To experience loving feelings is, even more assuredly, a kind of lust. Every act of love, every carnal congress of the xes is brought about precily becau nsual delight in beauty has kindled the feeling of love.
The reason I like you so much is becau you are full of lust. You are the most lustful person I have ever known in the whole world.

Y: Since Pao-yu had long been attracted by His-jen's gentle, coquettish ways, he urged her to carry out the instructions with him; and as she knew that the Lady Dowager had given her to Pao-yu she felt this would not be an undue liberty.

H: Bao-yu had long been attracted by Aroma's somewhat coquettish charms and tugged at her purpofully, anxious to share with her the lesson he had learned from Dinchantment. Aroma knew that when Grandmother Jia gave her to Bao-yu she had intended her to belong to him in the fullest possible n, and so, having no good reason for refusing him, she allowed him, after a certain amount of coy resistance, to have his way with her.
