翻译: I have sought love, next,
I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness -that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomale lifeless abyss
在这种可怕的孤独中,一颗颤抖的良心在世界的边缘,注视着下面冰凉、毫无生气、望不见底的深渊.
请问：look over ... into... 英文本意在描述一种什么样的动作?
