🔊 On the evening of the same day, when the barracks were locked, Raskolnikov lay on his plank bed and thought of her. He had even fancied that day that all the convicts who had been his enemies looked at him differently; he had even entered into talk with them and they answered him in a friendly way. He remembered that now, and thought it was bound to be so. Wasn't everything now bound to be changed?

🔊 He thought of her. He remembered how continually he had tormented her and wounded her heart. He remembered her pale and thin little face. But these recollections scarcely troubled him now; he knew with what infinite love he would now repay all her sufferings. And what were all, all the agonies of the past! Everything, even his crime, his sentence and imprisonment, seemed to him now in the first rush of feeling an external, strange fact with which he had no concern. But he could not think for long together of anything that evening, and he could not have analysed anything consciously; he was simply feeling. Life had stepped into the place of theory and something quite different would work itself out in his mind.

他想着她。他记得自己是如何不断地折磨她、伤害她的心。他记得她那苍白瘦弱的小脸。但这些回忆现在几乎不困扰他了；他知道自己现在会用何等无限的爱来偿还她所有的痛苦。而过去所有的、所有的苦难又算得了什么！此刻,在情感初涌的此刻,一切,甚至他的罪行、判决与监禁,于他都显得陌生而疏离,恍如隔世。但那天晚上,他无法长时间思考任何事情,也无法有意识地分析什么；他只是感受着。生活已取代了理论,而某种全新的东西,正在他心中悄然生成。

🔊 Under his pillow lay the New Testament. He took it up mechanically. The book belonged to Sonia; it was the one from which she had read the raising of Lazarus to him.

He had asked her for it himself not long before his illness and she brought him the book without a word. Till now he had not opened it.
