"Well, there's many just as bad as he." said Fairway. "Wethers must live their time as well as other sheep, poor soul."
“唉，像他这样的可就多啦，”费韦说，“骗了的羊也得同别的羊一样地过呀，可怜的东西。”
"So perhaps I shall rub on? Ought I to be afeared o' nights, Master Fairway?"
“那么俺也得凑付着过，是不是？你说俺夜里该害怕不该，费韦先生？”
"You'll h@ve to lie alone all your life; and 'tis not to married couples but to single sleepers that a ghost shows himself when 'a do come. One has been seen lately, too. A very strange one."
“你这一辈子打定了光棍儿啦。鬼要是出来，他单找那单人睡觉的，他不找那两口子睡觉的。新近还有人看见鬼来着。一个很怪的鬼。”
"No--don't talk about it if 'tis agreeable of ye not to! 'Twill make my skin crawl when I think of it in bed alone. But you will--ah, you will, I know, Timothy; and I shall dream all night o't! A very strange one? What sort of a spirit did ye mean when ye said, a very strange one, Timothy?--no, no--don't tell me."
“别，别说吧，要是你觉得不说没有什么碍处，那你就别说吧。俺听了，一个人躺在床上想起来，身上非一霎霎地起鸡皮疙瘩不可。可是，提摩太，你一定要说，俺知道你一定要说；说了好叫俺夜里成宿做噩梦。你才说，一个很怪的鬼？你心目中那个鬼是哪一种的，你才说它是个怪鬼？哎呀，提摩太，别说，别说，还是别对俺说好。”
"I don't half believe in spirits myself. But I think it ghostly enough--what I was told. 'Twas a little boy that zid it."
“俺本来不大信什么鬼呀神呀的。不过人家这回告诉俺的这个鬼，听起来可真有些阴森森的。据说是一个小孩看见的。”
"What was it like?--no, don't--"
“它什么样儿？——哦，别，别说——”
"A red one. Yes, most ghosts be white; but this is as if it had been dipped in blood."
“是一个红鬼。不错，平常的鬼差不多都是白的①，不过这个鬼可跟在血里染过了的一样。”
Christian drew a deep breath without letting it expand his body, and Humphrey said, "Where has it been seen?"
克锐听了这句话，深深地吸了一口气，但是却没让身体膨胀；同时赫飞就问，这个鬼是在什么地方看见的？
"Not exactly here; but in this same heth. But 'tisn't a thing to talk about. What do ye say," continued Fairway in brisker tones, and turning upon them as if the idea had not been Grandfer Cantle's--"what do you say to giving the new man and wife a bit of a song tonight afore we go to bed--being their wedding-day? When folks are just married 'tis as well to look glad o't, since looking sorry won't unjoin 'em. I am no drinker, as we know, but when the womenfolk and youngsters h@ve gone home we can drop down across to the Quiet Woman, and strike up a ballet in front of the married folks' door. 'Twill please the young wife, and that's what I should like to do, for many's the skinful I've had at her hands when she lived with her aunt at Blooms-End."
“虽然没出这片荒原，可不在咱们这块地方。不过这件事不值得尽着谈论了。俺说，街坊们，今儿既然是朵荪-姚伯和韦狄街坊的好日子，那咱们睡觉以前，去给他们刚结婚那小两口儿唱个歌儿听听，你们觉得怎么样？”费韦接着说；他说这句话的时候，口气比以先更活泼，同时朝着大众看着，他的神气好像觉得，这个提议并不是阚特大爷首先发起的。“对于已经配成了对儿的人，顶好装出喜欢的样子来，因为你不喜欢，也不能把人家拆开呀。你们都知道，俺是不会喝酒的，所以俺并不是图酒喝；可是俺觉得，回头堂客和小孩儿们都家去了以后，咱们很可以往下面到静女店去走一趟，在他们新结婚那两口子门前，给他们来一个歌儿。那位新娘子一定喜欢这一套；俺也很愿意她喜欢；因为她和她大妈一块儿住在布露恩的时候，俺从她手里曾接过好多皮袋酒。”
"Hey? And so we will!" said Grandfer Cantle, turning so briskly that his copper seals swung extr@vagantly. "I'm as dry as a kex with biding up here in the wind, and I h@ven't seen the colour of drink since namettime today. 'Tis said that the last brew at the Woman is very pretty drinking. And, neighbours, if we should be a little late in the finishing, why, tomorrow's Sunday, and we can sleep it off?"
“好哇，咱们就这么办哪，”阚特大爷说，同时身子转得那么轻快，他那一串坠儿都放纵恣肆地大摆而特摆。“俺在风地里站了这半天，嘴唇干得跟柴禾一样了。俺自从吃了便饭以后，还没闻到一滴酒味儿哪。人家都说，静女店新开桶的酒，喝着很不坏。再说，街坊们，就算咱们弄得很晚才能完事，那算得了什么？明儿是礼拜，多睡一会儿，酒还不消啊？”
"Grandfer Cantle! you take things very careless for an old man," said the wide woman.
“俺说，阚特大爷，凭你这样一个老头儿，老说这种说，真太随便了，”那个胖女人说。
"I take things careless; I do--too careless to please the women! Klk! I'll sing the 'Jovial Crew,' or any other song, when a weak old man would cry his eyes out. Jown it; I am up for anything.
“俺本来就什么事都随便；俺实在太随便了——俺没有那些闲工夫去讨她们的欢心。喀勒喀！俺只乐俺的！一个没能耐的老头子要把眼都哭肿了的时候，俺只唱俺的歌儿，唱俺的《乐呵呵的一伙》，唱俺的这个，俺的那个。俺不管那一套。俺不论干什么都行。
"The king' look'd o'-ver his left' shoul-der',
And a grim' look look'-ed hee',
Earl Mar'-shal, he said', but for' my oath'
Or hang'-ed thou' shouldst bee'."
国王扭转头，从左往后看，
满腹的怒气，满脸的怒颜，
若非我誓言已经说在先，
卿家你难免绞架身高悬。”
"Well, that's what we'll do," said Fairway. "We'll give 'em a song, an' it please the Lord. What's the good of Thomasin's cousin Clym a-coming home after the deed's done?
“不错，咱们正该那么办，”费韦说。“咱们得给他们唱个歌儿，上帝听着也喜欢。朵荪的堂兄克林等到事情完了才回来，还有什么用处？
He should h@ve come afore, if so be he wanted to stop it, and marry her himself."
要是他要拦这门亲事，想自己娶她，那他就该早回来呀。”
"Perhaps he's coming to bide with his mother a little time, as she must feel lonely now the maid's gone."
“也许只是因为姑娘出了门子，他妈一个人觉得孤单的慌，所以他才回来，跟他妈一块住几天吧。”
