Peter Pan — Page 3
小心，现在有一场冒险正向你袭来，若你接受，将会把你拖入最深的痛苦之中。
Take care lest an adventure is now offered you, which, if accepted, will plunge you in deepest woe.
小叮当仙子今夜心怀恶意，正在寻找一个可以利用的工具，而她认为你是这群男孩中最容易被耍弄的一个。
Tootles, the fairy Tink, who is bent on mischief this night is looking for a tool, and she thinks you are the most easily tricked of the boys.
当心小叮当！
'Ware Tinker Bell.
但愿他能听到我们说的话，可我们其实并不真的在那座岛上，他只是走过，咬着自己的指关节。
Would that he could hear us, but we are not really on the island, and he passes by, biting his knuckles.
接下来出现的是尼布斯，他活泼开朗、风度翩翩，后面跟着斯莱特利，他从树上削出哨子，然后随着自己吹出的曲调欣喜若狂地起舞。
Next comes Nibs, the gay and debonair, followed by Slightly, who cuts whistles out of the trees and dances ecstatically to his own tunes.
斯莱特利是这群男孩中最自以为是的一个。
Slightly is the most conceited of the boys.
他自以为记得迷失之前的那段岁月，记得那时的礼仪与习俗，这让他的鼻子高高地翘起，显出一副傲慢的神气。
He thinks he remembers the days before he was lost, with their manners and customs, and this has given his nose an offensive tilt.
卷毛排第四；他是个惹祸精，彼得每次严厉地说"站出来，谁做了这件事"，他都不得不挺身而出，久而久之，一听到这个命令他就会自动站出来，不管那件事究竟是不是他干的。
Curly is fourth; he is a pickle, and so often has he had to deliver up his person when Peter said sternly, "Stand forth the one who did this thing," that now at the command he stands forth automatically whether he has done it or not.
最后出场的是双胞胎，我们没办法描述他们，因为我们肯定会把其中一个认错。
Last come the Twins, who cannot be described because we should be sure to be describing the wrong one.
彼得从来搞不清楚双胞胎是怎么回事，而他的同伴们也不被允许知道任何他自己不知道的事情，所以这两个人对自己的身份始终模糊不清，只能尽力靠紧紧地待在一起、以一种带着歉意的姿态来让大家满意。
Peter never quite knew what twins were, and his band were not allowed to know anything he did not know, so these two were always vague about themselves, and did their best to give satisfaction by keeping close together in an apologetic sort of way.
