(续上)……是因为死者三十日内不会从心里被忘却,节前三十日内哀哭,到节期伤痛犹在。两个理由的实际分别,在于哀悼辞人不收钱的情形:那时不必担心节日的钱被花掉,却仍要顾虑节期中留存的伤痛。

……是因为死者在三十日之内不会从心里被忘却、抛在脑后;所以人若在节日前三十日内哀哭亡故的亲人,到了节日,那伤痛仍会被记起。
It is because the dead is not forgotten from the heart and put out of mind for thirty days, and therefore, when one laments the loss of a deceased relative within thirty days before a Festival, the pain is still remembered on the Festival.

革玛拉问:这两个理由之间有什么实际的分别?
The Gemara asks: What is the practical difference between the two reasons?
-
两者的实际分别,在于哀悼辞人不收钱致哀悼辞的情形。
The practical difference between them is in a case where the eulogizer performs the eulogy free of charge.

在那情形,不必担心为节日预备的钱被花掉,却仍有理由顾虑节日里会感到的余留的伤痛。
In that case there is no worry that money that had been set aside for the Festival will be spent, but there is still room for concern about the lingering pain that will be felt on the Festival.
