Ulysses — Page 10
对我来说,这一切都是嘲弄,令人厌恶。她的大脑叶已经不能正常运作了。
To me it's all a mockery and beastly. Her cerebral lobes are not functioning.
她管医生叫彼得·蒂泽尔爵士,还从被子上摘野毛茛花。
She calls the doctor sir Peter Teazle and picks buttercups off the quilt.
陪着她,直到一切结束。
Humour her till it's over.
她临死前的最后心愿你违背了,却还因为我没有像拉鲁埃特家雇来的哭丧人那样呜咽哭泣而跟我生闷气。
You crossed her last wish in death and yet you sulk with me because I don't whinge like some hired mute from Lalouette's.
荒唐!我想我确实说过那句话。我并非有意冒犯你母亲的记忆。
Absurd! I suppose I did say it. I didn't mean to offend the memory of your mother.
他越说越大胆。斯蒂芬将那些话在心中留下的累累伤口深深掩藏,极为冷淡地说道:
He had spoken himself into boldness. Stephen, shielding the gaping wounds which the words had left in his heart, said very coldly:
——我并非在想对我母亲的冒犯。
—I am not thinking of the offence to my mother.
——那是在想什么?巴克·穆利根问道。
—Of what then? Buck Mulligan asked.
——是对我的冒犯,斯蒂芬回答说。
—Of the offence to me, Stephen answered.
巴克·穆利根转身跺脚。
Buck Mulligan swung round on his heel.
——哦,真是个不可理喻的人!他大声说道。
—O, an impossible person! he exclaimed.
他迅速绕着胸墙走开了。斯蒂芬站在原地,凝望着平静的海面,目光投向那片海岬。
He walked off quickly round the parapet. Stephen stood at his post, gazing over the calm sea towards the headland.
大海与海岬渐渐变得模糊。他双眼中血脉跳动,遮蔽了视线,他感觉到脸颊上的燥热。
Sea and headland now grew dim. Pulses were beating in his eyes, veiling their sight, and he felt the fever of his cheeks.
塔内一个声音高声呼唤:
A voice within the tower called loudly:
——你在上面吗,穆利根?
—Are you up there, Mulligan?
——我来了,巴克·穆利根应道。
—I'm coming, Buck Mulligan answered.
他转向斯蒂芬,说道:
He turned towards Stephen and said:
——你看那片海。它在乎什么冒犯之事吗?把那套罗耀拉的东西丢掉,金奇,下来吧。那个萨克森佬要吃他早上的咸肉了。
—Look at the sea. What does it care about offences? Chuck Loyola, Kinch, and come on down. The Sassenach wants his morning rashers.
他的头在楼梯顶端与屋顶齐平处再次短暂停顿:
His head halted again for a moment at the top of the staircase, level with the roof:
——别为这事整天闷闷不乐,他说。我这人做事没什么原则。
—Don't mope over it all day, he said. I'm inconsequent.
