Peter Pan — Page 4
听到这话,他们都跪倒在地。"不,不!"他们哭喊道,声音如此凄惨,以至于每个海盗都忍不住笑了。
At that they fell on their knees. "No, no!" they cried so piteously that every pirate smiled.
"去把猫鞭拿来,朱克斯,"胡克说,"就在船舱里。"
"Fetch the cat, Jukes," said Hook; "it's in the cabin."
船舱!彼得就在船舱里!孩子们面面相觑。
The cabin! Peter was in the cabin! The children gazed at each other.
"好的,好的,"朱克斯欢快地说,大步走进了船舱。
"Ay, ay," said Jukes blithely, and he strode into the cabin.
他们目送着他进去;他们几乎没有注意到胡克又唱起了歌,他的手下也跟着一起唱:
They followed him with their eyes; they scarce knew that Hook had resumed his song, his dogs joining in with him:
"哟嗬,哟嗬,那九尾猫鞭,九根尾巴你可知,当它们抽打在你背上——"
"Yo ho, yo ho, the scratching cat, Its tails are nine, you know, And when they're writ upon your back—"
最后一句歌词永远无人知晓,因为突然间,船舱里传来一声可怕的惨叫,歌声戛然而止。那叫声响彻整艘船,然后渐渐消散。
What was the last line will never be known, for of a sudden the song was stayed by a dreadful screech from the cabin. It wailed through the ship, and died away.
随后传来一声雄鸡啼叫般的声音,孩子们一听便明白了,而对海盗们来说,这声音几乎比那惨叫更令人毛骨悚然。
Then was heard a crowing sound which was well understood by the boys, but to the pirates was almost more eerie than the screech.
"那是什么?"胡克喊道。
"What was that?" cried Hook.
"两个了,"斯莱特利一本正经地说。
"Two," said Slightly solemnly.
意大利人切科迟疑了片刻,随后大步走进船舱。他踉踉跄跄地走了出来,面容憔悴。
The Italian Cecco hesitated for a moment and then swung into the cabin. He tottered out, haggard.
"比尔·朱克斯怎么了,你这狗东西?"胡克俯视着他,厉声逼问。
"What's the matter with Bill Jukes, you dog?" hissed Hook, towering over him.
"他的情况是——他死了,被刺死了,"切科用空洞的声音回答道。
"The matter wi' him is he's dead, stabbed," replied Cecco in a hollow voice.
"比尔·朱克斯死了!"受惊的海盗们喊道。
"Bill Jukes dead!" cried the startled pirates.
"船舱里黑得像个深坑,"切科说,声音几乎语无伦次,"但里面有什么可怕的东西:就是你们听到的那个啼叫声发出的东西。"
"The cabin's as black as a pit," Cecco said, almost gibbering, "but there is something terrible in there: the thing you heard crowing."
