Question

When I was as old as you, I was a feeling fellow enough, partial to the unfledged, unfostered, and unlucky; but Fortune has knocked me about since: she has even kneaded me with her knuckles, and now I flatter myself I am hard and tough as an India-rubber ball; pervious, though, through a chink or two still, and with one sentient point in the middle of the lump.

Accepted Answer

Cuando yo tenía la edad de usted, era un muchacho bastante sentimental y me emocionaba fácilmente ante los infortunados y los desvalidos. Pero después la fortuna me ha baquetado de tal modo, que me he hecho duro y resistente como una pelota de goma maciza.
