On repairing thither, I found a man waiting for me, having the appearance of a gentleman's servant: he was dressed in deep mourning, and the hat he held in his hand was surrounded with a crape band.

我赶到那里，只见一个绅士仆人模样的人在等我，他身穿丧服，手中拿着的帽子围着一圈黑纱。

I paused — he stood before me, hat in hand, looking composed enough.

我停住了——他站在我面前，手里拿着帽子，看上去够镇静的。

I wish I could stand on a busy street corner, hat in hand, and beg people to throw me all their wasted time.

我真的希望我能站在一个繁忙的街角，恭敬地请求人们把他们浪费掉的时间扔给我！
