Dracula - Bram Stoker, CHAPTER 16 - Dr. Seward's Diary, part 12

CHAPTER 16 - Dr. Seward's Diary, part 12

Before we moved away Van Helsing said, "Now, my friends, one step of our work is done, one the most harrowing to ourselves.

But there remains a greater task: to find out the author of all this our sorrow and to stamp him out. I have clues which we can follow, but it is a long task, and a difficult one, and there is danger in it, and pain. Shall you not all help me? We have learned to believe, all of us, is it not so? And since so, do we not see our duty? Yes! And do we not promise to go on to the bitter end? Each in turn, we took his hand, and the promise was made.

Then said the Professor as we moved off, "Two nights hence you shall meet with me and dine together at seven of the clock with friend John. I shall entreat two others, two that you know not as yet, and I shall be ready to all our work show and our plans unfold. Friend John, you come with me home, for I have much to consult you about, and you can help me. Tonight I leave for Amsterdam, but shall return tomorrow night. And then begins our great quest. But first I shall have much to say, so that you may know what to do and to dread. Then our promise shall be made to each other anew. For there is a terrible task before us, and once our feet are on the ploughshare we must not draw back.

I have clues which we can follow, but it is a long task, and a difficult one, and there is danger in it, and pain. Tenho pistas que podemos seguir, mas é uma tarefa longa e difícil, que envolve perigo e dor. Shall you not all help me? Não me vão todos ajudar? We have learned to believe, all of us, is it not so? Aprendemos a acreditar, todos nós, não é verdade? And since so, do we not see our duty? E, sendo assim, não vemos qual é o nosso dever? Yes! Sim! And do we not promise to go on to the bitter end? E não prometemos ir até ao fim? Each in turn, we took his hand, and the promise was made. Cada um por sua vez, pegámos na sua mão e a promessa foi feita.

Then said the Professor as we moved off, "Two nights hence you shall meet with me and dine together at seven of the clock with friend John. ||||||||||from now|||||||||||||||| Então o Professor disse, enquanto nos afastávamos: "Daqui a duas noites encontrar-te-ás comigo e jantaremos juntos, às sete horas, com o amigo John.
