The gold had asked that he should sit weaving longer and longer, deafened and blinded more and more to all things except the monotony of his loom and the repetition of his web; but Eppie called him away from his weaving, and made him think all its pauses a holiday, reawakening his senses with her fresh life, even to the old winter-flies that came crawling forth in the early spring sunshine, and warming him into joy because she had joy.

金币要求他越织越久，除了织机单调的声响与布匹重复的纹样，对一切愈发充耳不闻、视而不见；爱蓓却把他从织机旁唤走，让每次停工都像过节，以鲜活的生命重新唤醒他的感官，连早春阳光里爬出的越冬苍蝇也能引起他的注意；她的快乐温暖了他，也使他快乐。
