The Guardian of the Gates led them through the streets until they came to a big building, exactly in the middle of the City, which was the Palace of Oz, the Great Wizard.
盖茨的守护者带领他们穿过了街道,直到他们来到一座大建筑上,恰好位于城市的正中央,也就是大巫师奥兹宫.
There was a soldier before the door, dressed in a green uniform and wearing a long green beard.
门前有士兵,身穿绿色制服并长出绿色胡子.
“Here are strangers,” said the Guardian of the Gates to him, “and they demand to see the Great Oz.”
“这里是陌生人,”盖茨的守护者对他说:“他们要求见大奥兹。
“Step inside,” answered the soldier, “and I will carry your message to him.”
士兵回答说,“你们走进去,我就把你们的消息传达给他。 “
So they passed through the Palace Gates and were led into a big room with a green carpet and lovely green furniture set with emeralds.
于是他们穿过了宫门并被带入了一间有绿地毯和可爱的绿色家具套装有翡翠的大房间.
The soldier made them all wipe their feet upon a green mat before entering this room, and when they were seated he said politely: “Please make yourselves comfortable while I go to the door of the Throne Room and tell Oz you are here.”
这名士兵让他们在进入这个房间之前都用绿色垫子擦去脚,当他们坐下时,他礼貌地说: “当我去宝座之门告诉奥兹你们在这里时,请自便。 “
They had to wait a long time before the soldier returned.
他们不得不等了很久,士兵才返回。
When, at last, he came back, Dorothy asked: “Have you seen Oz?”
当他终于回来时,多萝西问道:“你见过奥兹吗? “
“Oh, no,” returned the soldier; “I have never seen him.
“哦,不,”将这名士兵送回去,“我从未见过他。
But I spoke to him as he sat behind his screen and gave him your message.
但我跟他说话时,他坐在屏幕后 给他你的消息。
He said he will grant you an audience, if you so desire; but each one of you must enter his presence alone, and he will admit but one each day.
他说:如果你们意欲,你们就为你们设一个接见者;但你们每个人只得进去见他,他只允许每天见一个人。
Therefore, as you must remain in the Palace for several days, I will have you shown to rooms where you may rest in comfort after your journey.”
因此,由于你必须在宫中呆上好几天,我将带你们去你们旅途后舒适地休息的房间。 “
“Thank you,” replied the girl; “that is very kind of Oz.”
“谢谢,”这女孩回答说,“这真是一种野人。”
The soldier now blew upon a green whistle, and at once a young girl, dressed in a pretty green silk gown, entered the room.
这名士兵现在吹了个绿色口哨,一个穿着漂亮的绿色丝绸长袍的年轻女孩立刻进入了房间.
She had lovely green hair and green eyes, and she bowed low before Dorothy as she said, “Follow me and I will show you your room.”
她有可爱的绿色发型和绿色的眼睛,她低头跪在多萝西面前,她说:“跟着我,我带你去你的房间。 “
So Dorothy said good-bye to all her friends except Toto, and taking the dog in her arms followed the green girl through seven passages and up three flights of stairs until they came to a room at the front of the Palace.
于是多萝西与除托托外的所有朋友道别了,并带着怀中的小狗跟随绿姑娘走出七道道并爬上三层楼梯,直到他们来到了宫前的一个房间.
It was the sweetest little room in the world, with a soft comfortable bed that had sheets of green silk and a green velvet counterpane.
它是世界上最甜的小房间,有一个柔软的舒适的床,上面有绿丝被子和绿色的花绒反面板.
There was a tiny fountain in the middle of the room that shot a spray of green perfume into the air, to fall back into a beautifully carved green marble basin.
房间中间有一个细小的喷泉,将一剂绿色的香水喷入空气中,倒回了美丽的雕刻出绿色的大理石盆地.
Beautiful green flowers stood in the windows, and there was a shelf with a row of little green books.
美丽的绿色花朵站入窗外,有一排小绿色书的架子.
When Dorothy had time to open these books she found them full of queer green pictures that made her laugh, they were so funny.
当多萝西有时间打开这些书 她发现这些书里充满了怪异的绿相片 让她笑了起来,它们太搞笑了。
In a wardrobe were many green dresses, made of silk and satin and velvet; and all of them fitted Dorothy exactly.
衣橱里有许多绿色的裙子,用丝绸和丝绸做成;所有的衣服都配上多萝西。
“Make yourself perfectly at home,” said the green girl, “and if you wish for anything ring the bell.
绿色女孩说,“你在家里做得很好。” “如果你想听点什么,就敲钟。
Oz will send for you tomorrow morning.”
奥兹明早会派人来找你 “
She left Dorothy alone and went back to the others.
她离开多萝西独自一人,回到了其他人身边.
These she also led to rooms, and each one of them found himself lodged in a very pleasant part of the Palace.
这些她也带来了房间,每个房间都发现自己被安置在了非常愉快的宫殿中.
Of course this politeness was wasted on the Scarecrow; for when he found himself alone in his room he stood stupidly in one spot, just within the doorway, to wait till morning.
当然,这种礼貌被浪费在稻草人身上;因为当他发现自己一个人在房间里的时候,他傻傻地站在一个地方,就在门口,等待到早上.
It would not rest him to lie down, and he could not close his eyes; so he remained all night staring at a little spider which was weaving its web in a corner of the room, just as if it were not one of the most wonderful rooms in the world.
他躺下不会休息,他无法闭上眼睛;因此他整晚盯着一只小蜘蛛,蜘蛛正在房间一角编织它的网,就像它不是世界上最美妙的房间一样。
The Tin Woodman lay down on his bed from force of habit, for he remembered when he was made of flesh; but not being able to sleep, he passed the night moving his joints up and down to make sure they kept in good working order.
天木人从习惯力起就躺在床上,因为他记得自己是用肉做成的;但是由于不能入睡,他过了夜,把关节上下移动,以确保保持良好的工作秩序.
The Lion would have preferred a bed of dried leaves in the forest, and did not like being shut up in a room; but he had too much sense to let this worry him, so he sprang upon the bed and rolled himself up like a cat and purred himself asleep in a minute.
狮子本来更喜欢在森林中放干叶子的床,不喜欢被关入一室;但是他太过理智地让这件事让他担心了,于是就一出床来,把自己卷起来像一只猫,在一瞬间就把自己打昏了.
The next morning, after breakfast, the green maiden came to fetch Dorothy, and she dressed her in one of the prettiest gowns, made of green brocaded satin.
第二天早上,在早餐后,绿色的少女来接多萝西,她穿了一件最漂亮的长袍,由绿色的被青铜制成的莎廷.
Dorothy put on a green silk apron and tied a green ribbon around Toto’s neck, and they started for the Throne Room of the Great Oz.
Dorothy穿上了绿色丝绸围裙并绑住托托脖子上的绿色丝带,他们开始登上大奥兹王座之室.
First they came to a great hall in which were many ladies and gentlemen of the court, all dressed in rich costumes.
他们先是来到一个伟大的大厅,里面有许多宫廷的女士和先生们,他们都穿着丰富的服装.
These people had nothing to do but talk to each other, but they always came to wait outside the Throne Room every morning, although they were never permitted to see Oz.
这些人无所事事,只能彼此交谈,但他们每天早上总是来王座室外等,尽管他们从未获准见到奥兹.
As Dorothy entered they looked at her curiously, and one of them whispered: “ Are you really going to look upon the face of Oz the Terrible?”
当多萝西进入时,他们好奇地看着她,其中一人悄悄地说:“你真的要看着可怕的奥兹的脸? “
“Of course,” answered the girl, “if he will see me.”
“当然,”女孩回答说,“如果他见到我的话。 “
“Oh, he will see you,” said the soldier who had taken her message to the Wizard, “although he does not like to have people ask to see him.
" 哦,他要见你, " 带她去见巫师的士兵说, " 虽然他不喜欢有人要见他。
Indeed, at first he was angry and said I should send you back where you came from.
的确,他一开始很生气,说我应该把你送回你来自的地方。
Then he asked me what you looked like, and when I mentioned your silver shoes he was very much interested.
然后他问我你长什么样 当我提到你的银鞋时 他非常感兴趣
At last I told him about the mark upon your forehead, and he decided he would admit you to his presence.”
最后我告诉他你额头上的印记 他决定承认你在场 “
Just then a bell rang, and the green girl said to Dorothy, “That is the signal.
就在那时,一个铃声响起,绿色女孩对多萝西说:“这就是信号。
You must go into the Throne Room alone.”
你必须独自进入王室 “
She opened a little door and Dorothy walked boldly through and found herself in a wonderful place.
她打开了一小扇门,多萝西大胆地走过,发现自己在一个美妙的地方.
It was a big, round room with a high arched roof, and the walls and ceiling and floor were covered with large emeralds set closely together.
当时是一个大圆形的房间,有高拱屋顶,墙壁和天花板和地上被高大的翡翠紧密地搭起.
In the center of the roof was a great light, as bright as the sun, which made the emeralds sparkle in a wonderful manner.
在屋顶中央是一盏大光,与太阳一样明亮,它使翡翠以奇妙的方式闪烁.
But what interested Dorothy most was the big throne of green marble that stood in the middle of the room.
但最感兴趣的是位于房间中间的绿色大理石的大宝座.
It was shaped like a chair and sparkled with gems, as did everything else.
它的形状像一把椅子, 闪烁出宝石, 还有其他的。
In the center of the chair was an enormous Head, without a body to support it or any arms or legs whatever.
在会椅中央是一个巨大的头,没有身体来支撑它或者任何手臂或腿.
There was no hair upon this head, but it had eyes and a nose and mouth, and was much bigger than the head of the biggest giant.
这个头没有发型,但是它有眼睛和鼻子和口,并且比最大的巨头要大得多.
As Dorothy gazed upon this in wonder and fear, the eyes turned slowly and looked at her sharply and steadily.
当多萝西在惊奇和恐惧中凝视着这个时,眼睛慢慢地转动并直视着她,直视着她.
Then the mouth moved, and Dorothy heard a voice say: “I am Oz, the Great and Terrible.
然后口出声来,多萝西听到一个声音说:“我是奥兹,伟大而可怕。
Who are you, and why do you seek me?”
你是谁,你为什么找我? “
It was not such an awful voice as she had expected to come from the big Head; so she took courage and answered.
这不是她所期望的那么糟糕的声音,所以她勇敢地回答。
“I am Dorothy, the Small and Meek.
“我是小米克人多萝西。
I have come to you for help.”
我来找你帮忙 “
The eyes looked at her thoughtfully for a full minute.
眼睛深思熟虑地看着她整整一分钟。
Then said the voice: “Where did you get the silver shoes?”
然后,那个声音说:“你从哪里得到银鞋的? “
“I got them from the Wicked Witch of the East, when my house fell on her and killed her,” she replied.
她回答说,“我从东方邪恶女巫那里得到的,当时我的房子倒在她身上并杀死她”。
“Where did you get the mark upon your forehead?”
“你的额头上的印记是哪里来的? “
continued the voice.
继续说话
“That is where the Good Witch of the North kissed me when she bade me good-bye and sent me to you,” said the girl.
这位女孩说,“北方的好女巫就在那里吻我,当时她向我告别,并把我送到你那里。”
Again the eyes looked at her sharply, and they saw she was telling the truth.
眼睛再次直视她,他们看到她说的是实话。
Then Oz asked, “What do you wish me to do?”
礛 奥兹问道,“你希望我做什么? “
“Send me back to Kansas, where my Aunt Em and Uncle Henry are,” she answered earnestly.
“把我送回堪萨斯州,我姨妈和亨利叔叔在那里”,她认真回答。
“I don’t like your country, although it is so beautiful.
“我不喜欢你们的国家,
And I am sure Aunt Em will be dreadfully worried over my being away so long.”
我确信Em姨妈会非常担心我离开这么久 “
The eyes winked three times, and then they turned up to the ceiling and down to the floor and rolled around so queerly that they seemed to see every part of the room.
眼睛眨了三次眼,然后他们转到天花板上,倒到地上,摇晃得非常怪异,似乎看到房间的每个部分。
And at last they looked at Dorothy again.
最后他们又看了多萝西一眼
“Why should I do this for you?”
“我为什么要为你这样做? “
asked Oz.
问奥兹。
“Because you are strong and I am weak; because you are a Great Wizard and I am only a little girl.”
因为你强壮而我懦弱,因为你是一个伟大的术士,我只是一个小女孩。 “
“But you were strong enough to kill the Wicked Witch of the East,” said Oz.
奥兹说,“但你足以杀死东方邪恶女巫。”
“That just happened,” returned Dorothy simply; “I could not help it.”
Dorothy简单地说,“刚刚发生了这种情况”,“我无能为力。 “
“Well,” said the Head, “I will give you my answer.
团长说,“我会给你我的答案。
You have no right to expect me to send you back to Kansas unless you do something for me in return.
你无权指望我把你送回堪萨斯 除非你为我做点什么
In this country everyone must pay for everything he gets.
在这个国家,每个人都必须支付 他得到的一切。
If you wish me to use my magic power to send you home again you must do something for me first.
如果你希望我用我的魔法 让你再次回家... ...你必须先为我做点什么
Help me and I will help you.”
帮帮我,我会帮你的 “
“What must I do?”
“我必须做什么? “
asked the girl.
问女孩。
“Kill the Wicked Witch of the West,” answered Oz.
“杀死西方邪恶女巫”,奥兹回答说。
“But I cannot!”
但我无法!
exclaimed Dorothy, greatly surprised.
赞叹多萝西,非常惊讶。
“You killed the Witch of the East and you wear the silver shoes, which bear a powerful charm.
“你杀死了东方女巫,并穿有强大魅力的银鞋。
There is now but one Wicked Witch left in all this land, and when you can tell me she is dead I will send you back to Kansas—but not before.”
这片土地上只剩下一个邪恶的女巫 当你能告诉我她死了 我会把你送回堪萨斯 “
The little girl began to weep, she was so much disappointed; and the eyes winked again and looked upon her anxiously, as if the Great Oz felt that she could help him if she would.
小女孩开始哭泣,她非常失望;而眼睛又眨了一眼并焦急地看着她,好象大奥兹觉得如果她愿意,她可以帮助他.
“I never killed anything, willingly,” she sobbed.
她叹息道:“我从不杀人,
“Even if I wanted to, how could I kill the Wicked Witch?
“即使我想,我又如何杀死邪恶女巫?
If you, who are Great and Terrible, cannot kill her yourself, how do you expect me to do it?”
如果你,谁是伟大和可怕的, 不能杀死她自己, 你指望我怎么做? “
“I do not know,” said the Head; “but that is my answer, and until the Wicked Witch dies you will not see your uncle and aunt again.
头儿说,“我不知道,但这是我的答案,在邪恶女巫死之前,你不会再见到你的叔叔和阿姨。
Remember that the Witch is Wicked— tremendously Wicked— and ought to be killed.
请记住,女巫是邪恶的,确是邪恶的。
Now go, and do not ask to see me again until you have done your task.”
现在去,不要要求再见我 直到你完成任务。 “
Sorrowfully Dorothy left the Throne Room and went back where the Lion and the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman were waiting to hear what Oz had said to her.
悲哀地多萝西离开王座室,回到了狮子和稻草人以及锡木人等听到奥兹对她说的话的地方.
“There is no hope for me,” she said sadly, “for Oz will not send me home until I have killed the Wicked Witch of the West; and that I can never do.”
她悲哀地说,“我没有希望,因为Oz不会送我回家,直到我杀死了西方的邪恶女巫;我永远不能这样做。 “
Her friends were sorry, but could do nothing to help her; so Dorothy went to her own room and lay down on the bed and cried herself to sleep.
她的朋友很抱歉,但无所事事地帮助她;于是多萝西去她自己的房间,躺在床上哭着睡觉.
The next morning the soldier with the green whiskers came to the Scarecrow and said: “Come with me, for Oz has sent for you.”
第二天早晨,带着绿胡子的士兵来到稻草地,说道:你们跟我来吧,因为奥兹已派你去。 “
So the Scarecrow followed him and was admitted into the great Throne Room, where he saw, sitting in the emerald throne, a most lovely Lady.
于是稻草人跟着他被收入了大宝座之室,在那里他看见了坐在翡翠宝座上,一个最可爱的夫人.
She was dressed in green silk gauze and wore upon her flowing green locks a crown of jewels.
她穿着绿色丝绸纱布 并戴着一顶珠宝之冠
Growing from her shoulders were wings, gorgeous in color and so light that they fluttered if the slightest breath of air reached them.
从她肩膀上长出翅膀 颜色华丽 光线照亮,如果一口气的空气到达他们身上,他们就会挥发
When the Scarecrow had bowed, as prettily as his straw stuffing would let him, before this beautiful creature, she looked upon him sweetly, and said: “I am Oz, the Great and Terrible.
当稻草人鞠躬时,像他吸干草一样精致地让他在这个美丽的生物面前,她温柔地看着他,说道:“我是奥兹,伟大而可怕的人。
Who are you, and why do you seek me?”
你是谁,你为什么找我? “
Now the Scarecrow, who had expected to see the great Head Dorothy had told him of, was much astonished; but he answered her bravely.
现在稻草人,他本想见到伟大的多萝西头目告诉他的,非常惊奇;但他勇敢地回答她.
“I am only a Scarecrow, stuffed with straw.
“我只是稻草人,
Therefore I have no brains, and I come to you praying that you will put brains in my head instead of straw, so that I may become as much a man as any other in your dominions.”
因此,我没有头脑,我来到你们那里,祈祷你们把脑子放在我的头上,而不是吸管上,以便我成为你统治下的任何人。 “
“Why should I do this for you?”
“我为什么要为你这样做? “
asked the Lady.
问夫人。
“Because you are wise and powerful, and no one else can help me,” answered the Scarecrow.
稻草人回答道:“因为你聪明而强大,没有人能帮助我。”
“I never grant favors without some return,” said Oz; “but this much I will promise.
Oz说,“我从不给予恩惠,除非有回报。”
If you will kill for me the Wicked Witch of the West, I will bestow upon you a great many brains, and such good brains that you will be the wisest man in all the Land of Oz.”
如果你为我杀死西方的邪恶女巫, 我会给你很多的大脑, 和如此优秀的大脑,你将是所有奥兹地最聪明的人。 “
“I thought you asked Dorothy to kill the Witch,” said the Scarecrow, in surprise.
“我以为你叫多萝西去杀女巫,”稻草人说,令人惊讶。
“So I did.
“所以我做到了。
I don’t care who kills her.
我不管是谁杀了她。
But until she is dead I will not grant your wish.
但在她死之前 我不会答应你的愿望
Now go, and do not seek me again until you have earned the brains you so greatly desire.”
现在去,别再找我了,直到你得到你如此渴望的大脑。 “
The Scarecrow went sorrowfully back to his friends and told them what Oz had said; and Dorothy was surprised to find that the Great Wizard was not a Head, as she had seen him, but a lovely Lady.
稻草人悲伤地回到了朋友身边,告诉他们了奥兹的话;多萝西惊讶地发现"大巫师"并不是像她见过他那样的"头",而是一位可爱的"夫人".
“ All the same,” said the Scarecrow, “she needs a heart as much as the Tin Woodman.”
“...... 稻草人说,“她需要的心脏与锡木人一样多。 “
On the next morning the soldier with the green whiskers came to the Tin Woodman and said: “Oz has sent for you.
第二天早上,带着绿胡子的士兵来到锡木人面前说:"欧兹已派人来接你。
Follow me.”
跟我来 “
So the Tin Woodman followed him and came to the great Throne Room.
于是天木人跟从他来入大宝座室.
He did not know whether he would find Oz a lovely Lady or a Head, but he hoped it would be the lovely Lady.
他不知道他会不会发现 奥兹是一位可爱的女士或一位头,但他希望能是可爱的女士.
“For,” he said to himself, “if it is the head, I am sure I shall not be given a heart, since a head has no heart of its own and therefore cannot feel for me.
" 因为, " 他对自己说, " 如果是头,我相信我就不会得到一颗心,因为头没有自己的心,因此不能为我着想。
But if it is the lovely Lady I shall beg hard for a heart, for all ladies are themselves said to be kindly hearted.”
但如果是可爱的女士... ...我会为一颗心而苦苦地乞求... ...因为据说所有女士都心怀善意 “
But when the Woodman entered the great Throne Room he saw neither the Head nor the Lady, for Oz had taken the shape of a most terrible Beast.
但当木人进入大王座室时,他既没有看到头,也没有看到女神,因为奥兹的外形是一头最可怕的野兽.
It was nearly as big as an elephant, and the green throne seemed hardly strong enough to hold its weight.
它几乎和一头大象一样大,而绿色的宝座似乎几乎无法坚固地承受其重量.
The Beast had a head like that of a rhinoceros, only there were five eyes in its face.
野兽的头像犀牛一样 有五只眼睛在脸上
There were five long arms growing out of its body, and it also had five long, slim legs.
有五只长臂从身体中长出,它也有五只长而瘦的腿.
Thick, woolly hair covered every part of it, and a more dreadful- looking monster could not be imagined.
毛发厚而毛发覆盖了它的每一个部分,一个更可怕的怪物是无法想象的.
It was fortunate the Tin Woodman had no heart at that moment, for it would have beat loud and fast from terror.
幸运的是,锡木人当时没有心,因为它会从恐怖中猛烈地跳出来.
But being only tin, the Woodman was not at all afraid, although he was much disappointed.
但是,虽然伍德曼很失望,但是他只是一丁点,他一点都不害怕。
“I am Oz, the Great and Terrible,” spoke the Beast, in a voice that was one great roar.
“我是奥兹,伟大而可怕的,”野兽以一个巨大的吼叫声说道。
“Who are you, and why do you seek me?”
“你是谁,为什么找我? “
“I am a Woodman, and made of tin.
“我是一个木人,由锡制成。
Therefore I have no heart, and cannot love.
所以我没有心,也不能爱
I pray you to give me a heart that I may be as other men are.”
我祈祷你给我一颗心,让我和其他男人一样 “
“Why should I do this?”
“我为什么要这样做? “
demanded the Beast.
要求野兽。
“Because I ask it, and you alone can grant my request,” answered the Woodman.
“因为我问它,只有你才能同意我的要求”,伍德曼回答说。
Oz gave a low growl at this, but said, gruffly: “If you indeed desire a heart, you must earn it.”
奥兹对此低调地咆哮,但又说: “如果你真的想要一颗心,你必须挣取它。 “
“How?”
“如何? “
asked the Woodman.
问木人.
“Help Dorothy to kill the Wicked Witch of the West,” replied the Beast.
“帮助多萝西杀死西方邪恶女巫”,
“When the Witch is dead, come to me, and I will then give you the biggest and kindest and most loving heart in all the Land of Oz.”
“当女巫死后,你到我这里来,然后,我将给予你整个奥兹地最伟大、最善良和最慈爱的心。 “
So the Tin Woodman was forced to return sorrowfully to his friends and tell them of the terrible Beast he had seen.
于是"天木人"被迫悲哀地回到朋友身边,并告诉他们他见过的可怕的野兽.
They all wondered greatly at the many forms the Great Wizard could take upon himself, and the Lion said: “If he is a Beast when I go to see him, I shall roar my loudest, and so frighten him that he will grant all I ask.
他们都对"大巫师"可以自我接受的多种形式感到非常好奇,"狮子"说: “如果我去见他时,他是一个野兽,我将大声吼叫,吓得他不敢答应我的要求。
And if he is the lovely Lady, I shall pretend to spring upon her, and so compel her to do my bidding.
如果他是可爱的女士 我会假装向她倾出 逼她服从我的命令
And if he is the great Head, he will be at my mercy; for I will roll this head all about the room until he promises to give us what we desire.
如果他是大头,他将受我的怜悯;因为我会把这个头卷起房间,直到他答应给我们我们想要的东西。
So be of good cheer, my friends, for all will yet be well.”
朋友们,请为大家欢呼吧,因为一切都会好起来的 “
The next morning the soldier with the green whiskers led the Lion to the great Throne Room and bade him enter the presence of Oz.
第二天早上,带着绿胡子的士兵带领"狮子"来到了大王座之室,让他进入了奥兹的存在.
The Lion at once passed through the door, and glancing around saw, to his surprise, that before the throne was a Ball of Fire, so fierce and glowing he could scarcely bear to gaze upon it.
狮子瞬间从门上走来, 闪闪发光地看到, 奇怪的是,在王位之前, 火焰之球, 如此凶猛而发光, 他几乎无法仰视它。
The Lion’s first thought was that Oz had by accident caught on fire and was burning up; but when he tried to go nearer, the heat was so intense that it singed his whiskers, and he crept back tremblingly to a spot nearer the door.
狮子的第一个想法是,奥兹意外被火烧了,正在燃烧;但是当他试图靠近时,热度非常高,唱起他的胡子来,他颤抖地回到更靠近门的地方去.
Then a low, quiet voice came from the Ball of Fire, and these were the words it spoke: “I am Oz, the Great and Terrible.
然后,一个低调而安静的声音从火球中发出,它就说:我是奥兹,是伟大的,是可怕的。
Who are you, and why do you seek me?”
你是谁,你为什么找我? “
And the Lion answered, “I am a Cowardly Lion, afraid of everything.
狮子回答说:我是一个胆怯的狮子,害怕一切。
I came to you to beg that you give me courage, so that in reality I may become the King of Beasts, as men call me.”
我是来请求你给我勇气的 这样我就能成为野兽之王 就像人们叫我一样 “
“Why should I give you courage?”
“我为什么要给你勇气? “
demanded Oz.
要求奥兹。
“Because of all Wizards you are the greatest, and alone have power to grant my request,” answered the Lion.
狮子回答说,“因为所有的巫师,你是最伟大的,只有你才能答应我的要求。”
The Ball of Fire burned fiercely for a time, and the voice said, “Bring me proof that the Wicked Witch is dead, and that moment I will give you courage.
火焰之球燃烧了一段时间,那声音说:“把那个邪恶的女巫死了的证明给我,那一刻我将给你勇气。
But as long as the Witch lives, you must remain a coward.”
但是只要女巫活着 你就必须保持懦弱 “
The Lion was angry at this speech, but could say nothing in reply, and while he stood silently gazing at the Ball of Fire it became so furiously hot that he turned tail and rushed from the room.
狮子对这篇演讲感到愤怒,但可以一言不发地回答,当他静静地站着观看"火之球"时,他变得非常愤怒地发热地转过尾巴并冲出房间.
He was glad to find his friends waiting for him, and told them of his terrible interview with the Wizard.
他很高兴找到朋友在等他,并告诉他们他对"巫师"的可怕采访.
“What shall we do now?”
“我们现在该怎么办? “
asked Dorothy sadly.
不幸地问了多萝西
“There is only one thing we can do,” returned the Lion, “and that is to go to the land of the Winkies, seek out the Wicked Witch, and destroy her.”
“只有一件事我们可以做,”狮子回来了,“这就是去温基人之地,寻找邪恶的女巫并消灭她。 “
“But suppose we cannot?”
“但假设我们不能? “
said the girl.
说女孩。
“Then I shall never have courage,” declared the Lion.
“然后,我永远不会有勇气,” 宣布狮子。
“ And I shall never have brains,” added the Scarecrow.
“...... 我永远不会有大脑,“加上稻草人。
“ And I shall never have a heart,” spoke the Tin Woodman.
“...... 我永远不会有一颗心,”
“ And I shall never see Aunt Em and Uncle Henry,” said Dorothy, beginning to cry.
“...... 我永远不会看到埃姆阿姨和亨利叔叔,“桃乐西说,开始哭泣。
“Be careful!”
“小心点!”
cried the green girl.

“The tears will fall on your green silk gown and spot it.”
“你的绿色丝绸礼服上会流出泪来并被看到。 “
So Dorothy dried her eyes and said, “I suppose we must try it; but I am sure I do not want to kill anybody, even to see Aunt Em again.”
因此,多萝西擦干她的眼睛说,“我想我们必须试试;但我确信,我不想杀人,甚至不想再次见到埃姆阿姨。 “
“I will go with you; but I’m too much of a coward to kill the Witch,” said the Lion.
狮子说,“我会和你一起去,但我是一个懦夫,不能杀死女巫。”
“I will go too,” declared the Scarecrow; “but I shall not be of much help to you, I am such a fool.”
稻草人说:“我也会去,”“但我对你们没有多大帮助,我是这样一个傻瓜。 “
“I haven’t the heart to harm even a Witch,” remarked the Tin Woodman; “but if you go I certainly shall go with you.”
Tin Woodman说:“我甚至没有伤害女巫的心, “
Therefore it was decided to start upon their journey the next morning, and the Woodman sharpened his axe on a green grindstone and had all his joints properly oiled.
因此决定从第二天早上开始他们的出行,伍德曼人将斧头磨在了一块绿色磨石上并把他所有的关节都抹上适当的油.
The Scarecrow stuffed himself with fresh straw and Dorothy put new paint on his eyes that he might see better.
稻草人用新鲜的稻草塞入了自己,多萝西将新的颜料放入他的眼睛上,以便他看得更好.
The green girl, who was very kind to them, filled Dorothy’s basket with good things to eat, and fastened a little bell around Toto’s neck with a green ribbon.
这个对她们非常友善的绿色女孩,给多萝西的篮子中装满了好东西来吃,并用绿色丝带在托托的脖子上扎了个小铃.
They went to bed quite early and slept soundly until daylight, when they were awakened by the crowing of a green cock that lived in the backyard of the Palace, and the cackling of a hen that had laid a green egg.
