We have heard of your pumpkin pies. Every cook in Plymouth wants to try making them. 我们听说过你做的南瓜派，普利茅斯的每个厨师都想试着做。

There must be many pumpkin pies for the Governor’s Thanksgiving feast. 州长的感恩节大餐上一定有很多南瓜派。

Priscilla. Tomorrow we must get up early. The days will not be long enough for all we have to do. 普丽西拉：明天我们必须早起，要做的事太多，白天的时间可能不够。

Mother. And night is a poor time to work, when our only light is firelight and a fish-oil lamp. 妈妈：晚上干活不好，我们唯一的光源是炉火和鱼油灯。

Mary. I wish we had the tallow candles of England. 玛丽：希望我们有英国的牛油蜡烛。

Father. Have patience. In good time we shall be able to send to England a shipload of things we have raised in this new land. 父亲：要有耐心，很快我们就能把在这片新大陆上饲养的东西运到英国去。

Then we will ask for cows in return, and we shall no longer be without the milk and butter and cheese, and the beef and tallow, of our English home. 然后，我们就可以换来牛，这样就会一直有在英国时用的牛奶、黄油、奶酪、牛肉和牛油。

既然普丽西拉和玛丽要为盛宴做很多南瓜派，我可以要两块吗，妈妈？ 

Mother. He who eats must first earn. What can you do for the great feast, Edward? 妈妈：先劳动才能吃，你能为这盛宴做些什么，爱德华？

Edward. Oh, I had not thought of that! Let me see! I can bring wood for the fire and carry water. 爱德华：哦，我没想过啊！我想一下！我可以带木头生火，也可以带水。

Betty. And I can shine the pewter platters. 贝蒂：我可以把镴制盘子擦干净。

Father. There are lobsters and fish in the ocean, and eels on the shore. There are turkeys and deer and bear in the forest. It may be that your mother will not miss the English dainties, after all. 父亲：海里有龙虾和鱼，岸边有鳗鱼。森林里有火鸡、鹿和熊，也许你妈妈能做出英式的美味佳肴。
