Ulysses — Page 7
「我从女仆房间里偷来的，」Buck Mulligan说。「她用不着。姑妈总是为Malachi挑相貌平平的仆人。免得他受诱惑。她叫Ursula。」
—I pinched it out of the skivvy's room, Buck Mulligan said. It does her all right. The aunt always keeps plainlooking servants for Malachi. Lead him not into temptation. And her name is Ursula.
他再次大笑，将镜子从Stephen凝视的眼前移走。
Laughing again, he brought the mirror away from Stephen's peering eyes.
「Caliban看不见镜中自己的脸，怒火中烧，」他说。「要是Wilde还活着，看见你这副样子！」
—The rage of Caliban at not seeing his face in a mirror, he said. If Wilde were only alive to see you!
Stephen退后一步，指着镜子，带着苦涩说道：
Drawing back and pointing, Stephen said with bitterness:
「这是爱尔兰艺术的象征。一个仆人的破镜子。」
—It is a symbol of Irish art. The cracked lookingglass of a servant.
Buck Mulligan突然挽住Stephen的手臂，与他一同绕着塔楼踱步，他的剃须刀和镜子在口袋里叮当作响，那是他顺手塞进去的。
Buck Mulligan suddenly linked his arm in Stephen's and walked with him round the tower, his razor and mirror clacking in the pocket where he had thrust them.
「这样取笑你不公平，Kinch，对吧？」他温和地说。「天知道你比他们任何人都更有才气。」
—It's not fair to tease you like that, Kinch, is it? he said kindly. God knows you have more spirit than any of them.
又被挡开了。他害怕我艺术的刺探，正如我害怕他的刺探。那支冷钢钢笔。
Parried again. He fears the lancet of my art as I fear that of his. The cold steel pen.
「一个仆人的破镜子！去跟楼下那个有钱佬说这话，顺便向他讨一个金币。他满身铜臭，却认为你不是绅士。他老子靠着向祖鲁人兜售泻药或什么该死的骗局发了财。天啊，Kinch，要是你我能携手合作，说不定能为这座岛做点什么。让它希腊化。」
—Cracked lookingglass of a servant! Tell that to the oxy chap downstairs and touch him for a guinea. He's stinking with money and thinks you're not a gentleman. His old fellow made his tin by selling jalap to Zulus or some bloody swindle or other. God, Kinch, if you and I could only work together we might do something for the island. Hellenise it.
Cranly的手臂。他的手臂。
Cranly's arm. His arm.
「还要想到你不得不向这些猪猡乞讨。我是唯一真正了解你的人。」
—And to think of your having to beg from these swine. I'm the only one that knows what you are.
