懔然[lǐn rán]
形
1. 这片沼泽安静得叫人懔然心惊，微风轻柔﹐吹过林中，松针寂然落地﹐但仍清晰可闻。
A soft breeze blows through the trees and I can literally hear the hushed landing of falling pine needles.
2. 他，虽身处危急存亡，但英勇顽强；他，虽命悬千钧一发，但忠于信念，毫不气馁。在从容就义时，以轻蔑和懔然的目光注视着敌人——他被击败了，但不是被什么人而是被命运；他被杀害了，但没有被征服。
He who, though he falleth, is stubborn in his courage, and, being in danger of imminent death, is no whit daunted in his assurance; but, in yielding up the ghost, beholds his enemy with a scornful and fierce look--he is vanquished, not by us, but by fortune; he is slain, but not conquered.
