美国语文第五册 第179期:威廉-泰尔(4)

 　　That step—that step—that little step, so light Upon the ground, how heavy does it fall Upon my heart!   那脚步声，轻轻地一点点走近了，却是重重地踩在我的心上。

　　I feel my child!  孩子呀，我能感觉你过来了。

　　(Enter Sarnem with Albert, whose eyes are riveted¹ on Tell’s bow, which Sarnem carries.) （萨勒姆带着阿尔伯特走了进来，阿尔伯特眼睛紧紧盯着萨勒姆手上拿着的弓弩。）

　　This he! We can but perish. 就是他！大家都愣住了。

　　Albert says: (Aside.) Yes; I was right. It is my father's bow! 阿尔伯特说，（闪到一边）是的，我没看错，就是我爸爸的弓箭！

　　For there's my father! I'll not own him though! 虽然我还没看见我爸爸，他一定在这里！

　　See! What? Look there! 看那边！哪儿？那边！

　　I do, what would you have me see? Thy father. 我看了，你让我看谁呀？你爸爸呀！

　　Who? That—that my father? 谁？那——那是我爸爸？

　　My boy! my boy! my own brave boy! He's safe! 孩子，我的孩子，勇敢的好孩子！他很好。

　　Sarnem says: (Aside to Gesler.) They're like each other. 萨勒姆说：（闪在一边对盖斯勒说）他们俩长得很像。

　　Gesler says: Yet I see no sign of recognition to betray the link Unites a father and his child. 盖斯勒说：我可看不出丝毫破绽，这父亲和孩子长得一点也不像。

　　My lord, I am sure it is his father. Look at them. 老爷，我相信那家伙就是那孩子父亲，你看他俩，

　　That boy did spring from him; or never cast came from the mold it fitted! 那男孩确实与泰尔很像，否则怎会有同样的模子刻出来？

　　It may be A preconcerted thing 'gainst such a chance. 虽然他们不过彼此冷淡地打量一下，

　　That they survey each other coldly thus. 或许，那是他们事先想好的对策来应付这样场合。
