要求是记叙文,题目:An Encounter with Confucius on the Campus
Dear Confuscius,
There is no command you could have charged me with so severe as to deny me the priviledge of a correspondence,except you were with contempt to commandto relinquish that sensibility,of which Heaven was the founder and a Divinity the chief Architect. From retrospective recollection I can still figure to my imagination event branch and leaf of the unfeeling little peach tree,in presence of, and under which,your sensible heart,although cruel tongue passed the agonizing sentence of denying me the priviledge of a communication by letter. But Minerva,did you possess the power of the wise idol whose name you bear? My love for you is such as would(in this instance)force me to disobey you,without giving me greater proofs,that your contempt for me is as arbitrary as your commands were cruel and decisive.I am not afraid to face the enemies of my country,even,in the shape of furies from Hell,and could you suspect me of being coward enough to submit with pusillanimity to a charge so directly in disunion with my soul. It’s often said by the good people of Terra Firma that salt water and long absence cures all pains to which sailors’hearts are subject. With the candor of one of Neptune’s pupils,I honestly confess it had always been the case with me,until I had the happiness or unhappiness to be honored with your acquaintance. However, I will not despair nor be so profane as to accuse the all wise supreme of injustice until you give me more sufficient reason. I am now on a part of the globe where even the compass itself is false,as all points have revoked their constancy,since I left America,and changed their direction upwards of twenty degrees,embrace*me nearer object. But Minerva(forgive the familiar appellation)the magnetic power of your charms have to this moment prevented my heart from varying a single second. I know no art in love as you may plainly discover by the diction of my scribbling, but the. professions I have made were dictated by a heart as honest,as proud,and as honorable as that of any other being in existence,and if to possess such feelings be a crime,the errors are not mine hut his who made us hot}一I feel my intellect so perfectly inadequate to visit sunzhaoyang.cn/business to get an expression of the sensations I feel,that I am obliged wi一h painful reluctance to drop the subject. Further than to ask you to answer me with that perfectly undisguised and generous candor with which[address you,if you will ever condescend to make me that happy,happy,happy being whom you alone have the power to possess. If your heart has not yet rightly informed you .do not be too precipitate. And beware of making miserable a man that would sacrifice his very existence to make you happy. If you answer me in the negative farewell and farewell to the banks of that rver where I drew my first breath. We are now bound to Malta,the island where St. Paul was ship wrecked .and will .in the course of a few days,be in sight of the island of Candia which affords the disasterous subject of the ship wreck. Poor Palemon how I pityhim. My Champion,and your old acquaintance,Mr. Smith. is much elated with the romantic scenes of huge mountains,antient Moorish castles,Spanish converts and stupendous rocks which dourly present themselves to his view. We saw the castle of Andalusia a few days ago and Mr. Ratcliff has ever since been continually in his mouth. However what he sees as comedy I shall be obliged to view as tragedy for these nine mouths to come. I have been in Malaga, Spain,via Gibraltar, within these last five weeks. The Spanish ladies are,many of them,very beautiful,but possess too much levity,yet their manners are lazy and fascinating, and as ballroom acquaintances are very well. However, the men are hideously ugly,extremely uncouth、and generally with every expression of jealousy and assassination depictedin their countenances. So much for Spaniards. The inhabitants of Gibraltar are the most extraordinary collection I have met with in all my travels,being comprised of almost every order, every sector and religion,and every nation of the whole globe (the military part of the community excepted)and there appears to be nothing like social society,except between military gentlemen and their family’s. I have the honor to be with more than language can express,dear miss.your slave
