Be good to me, for it went for you.
Maybe the hairs of my head were numbered," she went on with a sudden serious sweetness,"but nobody could ever count my love for you.
Shall I put the chops on, Jim?"
Out of his trance Jim seemed to quickly wake.
He enfolded his Della.
For ten seconds let us regard with discreet scrutiny some inconsequential object in the other direction.

maybe the hairs of my head were numbered : おそらく私の髪は神様によって数えられていたのでしょう(マタイ伝 10:30)
count my love for you :あなたへの私の愛の深さを測る
put the chops on : チョップを火にかける
trance : 忘我の境地
enfold : 抱く
with discreet scrutiny : 慎重に事を図りながら
inconsequential : 取るに足りない
in the other direction : 本題から離れて
