他走到炮架旁,把手伸进斯蒂芬上衣口袋,说道:

He came over to the gunrest and, thrusting a hand into Stephen's upper pocket, said:

——借你的擦鼻布给我擦剃刀用用。

—Lend us a loan of your noserag to wipe my razor.

斯蒂芬任由他从口袋里掏出一块皱巴巴的脏手帕,捏着角举起来展示。巴克·穆利根利落地擦干净了剃刀刀片。然后,隔着手帕望过来,他说:

Stephen suffered him to pull out and hold up on show by its corner a dirty crumpled handkerchief. Buck Mulligan wiped the razorblade neatly. Then, gazing over the handkerchief, he said:

——诗人的擦鼻布!爱尔兰诗人们的新艺术色彩:鼻涕绿。几乎能尝到那味道,不是吗?

—The bard's noserag! A new art colour for our Irish poets: snotgreen. You can almost taste it, can't you?

他再次爬上胸墙,眺望都柏林湾,浅色的橡木般的头发轻轻飘动。

He mounted to the parapet again and gazed out over Dublin bay, his fair oakpale hair stirring slightly.

——天哪!他轻声说。大海不正是阿尔吉所说的:一位伟大温柔的母亲?鼻涕绿的大海。令阴囊收缩的大海。Epi oinopa ponton。啊,迪达勒斯,希腊人!我得教你。你必须读原文。Thalatta!Thalatta!她是我们伟大温柔的母亲。来看看吧。

—God! he said quietly. Isn't the sea what Algy calls it: a great sweet mother? The snotgreen sea. The scrotumtightening sea. Epi oinopa ponton. Ah, Dedalus, the Greeks! I must teach you. You must read them in the original. Thalatta! Thalatta! She is our great sweet mother. Come and look.

斯蒂芬站起身,走到胸墙旁。他倚靠在上面,俯视着水面,以及正驶出金斯敦港口的邮船。

Stephen stood up and went over to the parapet. Leaning on it he looked down on the water and on the mailboat clearing the harbourmouth of Kingstown.

——我们强大的母亲!巴克·穆利根说。

—Our mighty mother! Buck Mulligan said.

他猛地把那双灰色的探寻的眼睛从海面转向斯蒂芬的脸。

He turned abruptly his grey searching eyes from the sea to Stephen's face.

——姑妈认为是你害死了你母亲,他说。这就是为什么她不让我跟你来往。

—The aunt thinks you killed your mother, he said. That's why she won't let me have anything to do with you.

——是有人害死了她,斯蒂芬阴郁地说。

—Someone killed her, Stephen said gloomily.

——你本可以跪下来的,该死,金奇,你垂死的母亲求你的时候,巴克·穆利根说。我和你一样是个超北方人。

—You could have knelt down, damn it, Kinch, when your dying mother asked you, Buck Mulligan said. I'm hyperborean as much as you.
