Peter Pan — Page 7
张开的嘴巴,耷拉的手臂,弓起的膝盖:这些加在一起,简直是傲慢自大的化身,但愿这样的形象,再也不会呈现在对其令人厌恶之处如此敏感的眼睛面前。
The open mouth, the drooping arm, the arched knee: they were such a personification of cockiness as, taken together, will never again, one may hope, be presented to eyes so sensitive to their offensiveness.
这一切使虎克的心肠变得冷酷无情。
They steeled Hook's heart.
就算他的怒火将他碎成一百片,每一片也会无视这突发情况,朝那熟睡的人扑去。
If his rage had broken him into a hundred pieces every one of them would have disregarded the incident, and leapt at the sleeper.
尽管那盏灯发出的微光昏昏地照在床上,虎克自己却站在黑暗之中,当他迈出第一步悄悄向前移动时,发现了一个障碍——斯莱特利那棵树的门。
Though a light from the one lamp shone dimly on the bed, Hook stood in darkness himself, and at the first stealthy step forward he discovered an obstacle, the door of Slightly's tree.
那扇门并没有完全填满洞口,他一直是从门上方往里看的。
It did not entirely fill the aperture, and he had been looking over it.
他摸索着找门闩,愤怒地发现门闩在很低的地方,根本够不到。
Feeling for the catch, he found to his fury that it was low down, beyond his reach.
在他那混乱的脑子里,彼得脸上和身上那令人恼火的神情似乎愈发明显,他用力摇晃着门,把自己的身体猛撞上去。
To his disordered brain it seemed then that the irritating quality in Peter's face and figure visibly increased, and he rattled the door and flung himself against it.
难道他的敌人就这样从他手中逃脱了吗?
Was his enemy to escape him after all?
但那又是什么?他那充血的眼睛瞥见了彼得的药,就放在近处一块壁架上,伸手可及。
But what was that? The red in his eye had caught sight of Peter's medicine standing on a ledge within easy reach.
他立刻明白了那是什么,随即意识到那个熟睡的人已在他的掌握之中。
He fathomed what it was straightaway, and immediately knew that the sleeper was in his power.
为了不被活捉,虎克随身携带着一种可怕的毒药,那是他亲手调配的,将所有落入他手中的那些能置人于死地的毒环里的毒素混合而成。
Lest he should be taken alive, Hook always carried about his person a dreadful drug, blended by himself of all the death-dealing rings that had come into his possession.
