The Count of Monte Cristo — Page 8
那就是波利卡·莫雷尔,我的叔叔,他后来成了一名上尉。
And that was Policar Morrel, my uncle, who was afterwards a captain.
唐泰斯,你一定要告诉我叔叔皇帝还记得他,
Dantès, you must tell my uncle that the emperor remembered him,
你会看到这会让那位老兵热泪盈眶的。
and you will see it will bring tears into the old soldier's eyes.
来,来,"他继续说,亲切地拍着爱德蒙的肩膀,
Come, come," continued he, patting Edmond's shoulder kindly,
"你做得很对,唐泰斯,遵从了勒克莱尔船长的指示,在厄尔巴岛停靠,
"you did very right, Dantès, to follow Captain Leclere's instructions, and touch at Elba,
尽管如果人们知道你曾给元帅带去一个包裹,并与皇帝交谈过,这可能会给你带来麻烦。"
although if it were known that you had conveyed a packet to the marshal, and had conversed with the emperor, it might bring you into trouble."
"这怎么会给我带来麻烦呢,先生?"唐泰斯问道;
"How could that bring me into trouble, sir?" asked Dantès;
"因为我甚至不知道自己携带的是什么;皇帝只不过是像对待任何初次见面的人一样向我询问了些问题。
"for I did not even know of what I was the bearer; and the emperor merely made such inquiries as he would of the first comer.
但是,请原谅我,卫生官员和海关检查员正靠过来了。"
But, pardon me, here are the health officers and the customs inspectors coming alongside."
年轻人走向舷梯。他一离开,唐格拉尔便走近说道:
And the young man went to the gangway. As he departed, Danglars approached, and said,—
"好吧,看来他已经就在波托费拉约靠岸一事给了你令人满意的解释?"
"Well, it appears that he has given you satisfactory reasons for his landing at Porto-Ferrajo?"
"是的,非常令人满意,我亲爱的唐格拉尔。"
"Yes, most satisfactory, my dear Danglars."
"好吧,那就太好了,"货运监管说;"因为想到一个同伴没有尽到职责,实在令人不快。"
"Well, so much the better," said the supercargo; "for it is not pleasant to think that a comrade has not done his duty."
"唐泰斯已经尽到了他的职责,"船主回答道,"这没什么值得称道的。是勒克莱尔船长下令延误的。"
"Dantès has done his," replied the owner, "and that is not saying much. It was Captain Leclere who gave orders for this delay."
"说到勒克莱尔船长,唐泰斯有没有给你带来他的一封信?"
"Talking of Captain Leclere, has not Dantès given you a letter from him?"
"给我?——没有——有吗?"
"To me?—no—was there one?"
