英语名著经典段落：《红字》
the founders of a new colony,
whatever utopia of human virtue and happiness they might
originally project, have invariably recognised it among their
earliest practical necessities to allot a portion of the virgin soil
as a cemetery, and another portion as the site of a prison. in
accordance with this rule, it may safely be assumed that the
forefathers of boston had built the first prison-house
somewhere in the vicinity of cornhill, almost as seasonably as

gloomy front. the rust on the ponderous iron-work of its oaken
door looked more antique than any thing else in the new world.

wheel-track of the street, was a grass-plot, much overgrown
with burdock, pig-weed, apple- peru, and such unsightly
vegetation, which evidently found something congenial in the
soil that had so early borne the black flower of civilised society,

the threshold, was a wild rose-bush, covered, in this month of
june, with its delicate gems, which might be imagined to offer
their fragrance and fragile beauty to the prisoner as he went in,
and to the condemned criminal as he came forth to his doom,
in token that the deep heart of nature could pity and be kind to
him.
