In the wood, the scrub-oak is only just coming uncrumpled, and the pines keep their hold on winter.
在森林里,矮灌木即将倒下,而松树在冬天里则稳稳地保持自己的站姿。
They are wintry things, stone-pined.
冬天是最适宜石松生长的季节。
At Christmas, their heavy green clouds are richly beautiful.
一到圣诞节的时候,石松团团的深绿色更显得婀娜多姿。
When the cypresses rise their tall and naked bodies of dark green, and the osiers are vivid red-orange, on the still blue air, and the land is lavender; then, in mid-winter, the landscape is most beautiful in colour, surging with colour.
当柏树显示出自己高高的、墨绿色的身躯时,柳树仍然在蓝色的空气中展现着自己活泼地鲜橙色。大地染上淡紫色的时候。隆冬时节就到了。这儿将成为颜色的世界,颜色才是最美的风景。
Not that this week is flowerless.
当然,这一个星期还会有花的足迹。
But the flowers are a little lonely things, here and there: the early purple orchid, ruddy and very much alive, you come across occasinally, then the little groups of bee-orchids, with their ragged concerted indifference to their appearance.
但这时候的花儿成了孤独地小东西,四处分散。你会在不经意间发现它们的足迹:提前出来的紫兰花,红润而有生命力;成群结对的蜜蜂兰,它们对自己的外表,都显露出刻意的、不屑的神情。
