Peter Pan — Page 6
又一声哀嚎将在夜风中回荡。
One more wail would go the round in that wind by night.
在两个海盗带来的阴暗中，他们没有看见礁石，直到撞了上去。
In the gloom that they brought with them the two pirates did not see the rock till they crashed into it.
「转舵，你这笨蛋，」一个爱尔兰口音喊道，那是斯密的声音；「礁石在这里。好了，我们现在要做的是把那个红皮肤女人架上礁石，把她留在这里淹死。」
"Luff, you lubber," cried an Irish voice that was Smee's; "here's the rock. Now, then, what we have to do is to hoist the redskin on to it and leave her here to drown."
把那美丽的女孩扔上礁石，只是残忍的一瞬间的事；她太骄傲了，不愿做徒劳的抵抗。
It was the work of one brutal moment to land the beautiful girl on the rock; she was too proud to offer a vain resistance.
就在礁石附近，但看不见的地方，两颗脑袋在水中一上一下地浮沉，那是彼得和温迪。温迪在哭泣，因为这是她第一次亲眼目睹悲剧。彼得见过许多悲剧，但他已把它们全忘了。比起温迪，他对虎百合并不那么难过：令他愤怒的是两个人对付一个人，他打算救她。等到海盗们离开再行动本是个简单的办法，但他从来不是那种选择轻松之路的人。
Quite near the rock, but out of sight, two heads were bobbing up and down, Peter's and Wendy's. Wendy was crying, for it was the first tragedy she had seen. Peter had seen many tragedies, but he had forgotten them all. He was less sorry than Wendy for Tiger Lily: it was two against one that angered him, and he meant to save her. An easy way would have been to wait until the pirates had gone, but he was never one to choose the easy way.
几乎没有什么事情是他做不到的，他现在模仿起了胡克船长的声音。
There was almost nothing he could not do, and he now imitated the voice of Hook.
「喂，你们这些笨蛋！」他喊道。那模仿简直惟妙惟肖。
"Ahoy there, you lubbers!" he called. It was a marvellous imitation.
「是船长！」海盗们说，互相惊讶地对视着。
"The captain!" said the pirates, staring at each other in surprise.
「他一定是游过来找我们的，」斯塔基说，此前他们已经徒劳地四处张望过了。
"He must be swimming out to us," Starkey said, when they had looked for him in vain.
「我们正在把那个红皮肤女人放上礁石，」斯密喊道。
"We are putting the redskin on the rock," Smee called out.
