Many places have I lived, some which my soul disliked, and some which pleased me well; but never till now with that sense of security which makes a home. At any moment I might have been driven forth by evil accident, by disturbing necessity. For all that time did I say within myself: Some day, perchance, I shall have a home; yet the "perchance" had more and more of emphasis as life went on, and at the moment when fate was secretly smiling on me, I had all but abandoned hope.I have my home at last.
作者生活的那个时代,使用倒装句是一种时尚,所以Many places have I lived 这里宾语前置作者用了部分倒装结构。For all that time did I say within myself 这里由于时间状语前置,也用了部分倒装结构。在现代英语中,这二个句子都不再倒装。作者是个文人,喜欢舞文弄墨,行文不拘一格,初学者不适合阅读此类文章。
