Peter Pan — Page 13
她并不害怕他,因为她觉得自己曾在许多没有孩子的女人脸上见过他。
He did not alarm her, for she thought she had seen him before in the faces of many women who have no children.
也许在一些母亲的脸上也能找到他。
Perhaps he is to be found in the faces of some mothers also.
但在她的梦中,他撕开了那层遮蔽梦幻岛的薄膜,她看见温迪、约翰和迈克尔从缝隙中偷望着。
But in her dream he had rent the film that obscures the Neverland, and she saw Wendy and John and Michael peeping through the gap.
这个梦本身不过是件微不足道的小事,但就在她做梦的时候,育儿室的窗户被风吹开了,一个男孩落在了地板上。
The dream by itself would have been a trifle, but while she was dreaming the window of the nursery blew open, and a boy did drop on the floor.
伴随他而来的是一道奇异的光,不比你的拳头大,在房间里像活物一样四处飞窜,我想正是这道光惊醒了达林太太。
He was accompanied by a strange light, no bigger than your fist, which darted about the room like a living thing and I think it must have been this light that wakened Mrs. Darling.
她惊叫着坐了起来,看见了那个男孩,不知为何她立刻知道他就是彼得·潘。
She started up with a cry, and saw the boy, and somehow she knew at once that he was Peter Pan.
如果你、我或者温迪当时在场,我们一定会发现他和达林太太的吻非常相像。
If you or I or Wendy had been there we should have seen that he was very like Mrs. Darling's kiss.
他是个可爱的男孩,身上穿着枯叶和从树木中渗出的汁液做成的衣服,但关于他最令人着迷的是他还留着全部的乳牙。
He was a lovely boy, clad in skeleton leaves and the juices that ooze out of trees but the most entrancing thing about him was that he had all his first teeth.
当他看见她是个大人时,便向她咬牙切齿地龇出那些珍珠般的小牙。
When he saw she was a grown-up, he gnashed the little pearls at her.
