gate of Emerald City and rang the bell.
翡翠城的大门 敲响了钟声
After ringing several times, it was opened by the same Guardian of the Gates they had met before.
在敲了好几次后,它由他们之前相遇的同一位盖茨守护者打开.
“What!
" 何谓!
Are you back again?”
你又回来了? “
he asked, in surprise.
他突然问起
“Do you not see us?”
“你看不到我们吗? “
answered the Scarecrow.
回答稻草人的问题。
“But I thought you had gone to visit the Wicked Witch of the West.”
“我以为你去拜访了西方的邪恶女巫。”
“We did visit her,” said the Scarecrow.
稻草人说,
“ And she let you go again?”
“...... 她又让你走了? “
asked the man, in wonder.
问这个人,令人惊讶。
“She could not help it, for she is melted,” explained the Scarecrow.
稻草人解释道,“她无能为力,因为她已经融化了。”
“Melted!
“梅尔特德!
Well, that is good news, indeed,” said the man.
这确实是个好消息,“他说。
“Who melted her?”
“谁把她融化了? “
“It was Dorothy,” said the Lion gravely.
狮子说:“是多萝西,”
“Good gracious!”
“亲爱的! “
exclaimed the man, and he bowed very low indeed before her.
赞美他,他的确在她面前低头叩头。
Then he led them into his little room and locked the spectacles from the great box on all their eyes, just as he had done before.
然后,他把他们带到他的小房间,把大盒子里的眼镜锁在他们的眼睛上,就像他以前一样。
Afterward they passed on through the gate into the Emerald City.
后相继从城门传入翡翠城.
When the people heard from the Guardian of the Gates that Dorothy had melted the Wicked Witch of the West, they all gathered around the travelers and followed them in a great crowd to the Palace of Oz.
当人们从"盖茨守护者"那里听说多萝西已经融化了西方邪恶的女巫后,他们都聚集在旅行者周围并大群地跟随他们来到了奥兹宫.
The soldier with the green whiskers was still on guard before the door, but he let them in at once, and they were again met by the beautiful green girl, who showed each of them to their old rooms at once, so they might rest until the Great Oz was ready to receive them.
带着绿胡子的士兵在出门前仍然保持警戒状态,但他立刻让他们进来,他们再次被美丽的绿姑娘所接见,她马上带她们每人去他们原来的房间,这样他们就可以休息到大奥兹准备接收.
The soldier had the news carried straight to Oz that Dorothy and the other travelers had come back again, after destroying the Wicked Witch; but Oz made no reply.
士兵将这个消息直接传到奥兹,说多萝西和其他旅行者在摧毁了"邪恶女巫"后再次回来;但奥兹没有做出回应.
They thought the Great Wizard would send for them at once, but he did not.
他们以为大巫师会马上派他们来 但他没有
They had no word from him the next day, nor the next, nor the next.
他们第二天没有从他那里得到任何消息,也没有从他那里得到任何消息。
The waiting was tiresome and wearing, and at last they grew vexed that Oz should treat them in so poor a fashion, after sending them to undergo hardships and slavery.
等待是厌倦和穿戴的,他们终于变得很烦恼,以至于奥兹在送他们去忍受艰难和被奴役之后,应该如此贫穷地对待他们.
So the Scarecrow at last asked the green girl to take another message to Oz, saying if he did not let them in to see him at once they would call the Winged Monkeys to help them, and find out whether he kept his promises or not.
所以稻草人终于要求绿姑娘给奥兹带去另一条口信,说如果他不立刻让他们进来见他,他们就会叫"翼猴"来帮助他们,并找出他是否履行了诺言.
When the Wizard was given this message he was so frightened that he sent word for them to come to the Throne Room at four minutes after nine o’clock the next morning.
当巫师接到这个消息时,他非常害怕,于是发消息让他们在第二天早上九点后四分赶到王座室。
He had once met the Winged Monkeys in the Land of the West, and he did not wish to meet them again.
他曾经在"西地"与"翼猴"相会,不想再相会.
The four travelers passed a sleepless night, each thinking of the gift Oz had promised to bestow on him.
四个旅行者经过了无眠之夜,每想到奥兹答应给他的礼物.
Dorothy fell asleep only once, and then she dreamed she was in Kansas, where Aunt Em was telling her how glad she was to have her little girl at home again.
多萝西只睡了一次,后来她梦到自己在堪萨斯州,埃姆姨妈告诉她,她多么高兴能再有女儿在家.
Promptly at nine o’clock the next morning the green-whiskered soldier came to them, and four minutes later they all went into the Throne Room of the Great Oz.
第二天早上九点, 绿毛士兵赶来,
Of course each one of them expected to see the Wizard in the shape he had taken before, and all were greatly surprised when they looked about and saw no one at all in the room.
当然,他们每个人都期望看到魔法师的外形,他之前的形状,当他们看一看,看到房间里根本没有人时,所有人都非常惊讶.
They kept close to the door and closer to one another, for the stillness of the empty room was more dreadful than any of the forms they had seen Oz take.
他们紧紧地贴着门 紧紧地相接 因为空房间的静态 比他们看到的任何形式都可怕 奥兹拿。
Presently they heard a solemn Voice that seemed to come from somewhere near the top of the great dome, and it said: “I am Oz, the Great and Terrible.
现在他们听到一个庄严的 声音似乎来自大穹顶上某个地方,它说:“我是奥兹,伟大而可怕的人。
Why do you seek me?”
你为什么找我? “
They looked again in every part of the room, and then, seeing no one, Dorothy asked, “Where are you?”
他们再次在房间里的每一个地方看一看,然后看到没有人,多萝西问道:“你在哪里? “
“I am everywhere,” answered the Voice, “but to the eyes of common mortals I am invisible.
“我无所不在,”该声音回答说,“但在普通人眼中,我是看不见的。
I will now seat myself upon my throne, that you may converse with me.”
我将坐在我的宝座上,以便你与我交谈。 “
Indeed, the Voice seemed just then to come straight from the throne itself; so they walked toward it and stood in a row while Dorothy said: “We have come to claim our promise, O Oz.”
那时,声音好像从宝座上直走出来,他们就走向宝座并排起,而多萝西说: “奥兹,我们来要求我们的承诺。”
“What promise?”
“什么承诺? “
asked Oz.
问奥兹。
“You promised to send me back to Kansas when the Wicked Witch was destroyed,” said the girl.
这位女孩说,“你答应在邪恶女巫被摧毁时把我送回堪萨斯去。”
“ And you promised to give me brains,” said the Scarecrow.
“...... 稻草人说,你答应给我大脑。
“ And you promised to give me a heart,” said the Tin Woodman.
“...... 你答应要给我一颗心的,“锡木人说。
“ And you promised to give me courage,” said the Cowardly Lion.
“...... 你答应给我勇气,“懦夫狮子说。
“Is the Wicked Witch really destroyed?”
“邪恶女巫真的被摧毁了吗? “
asked the Voice, and Dorothy thought it trembled a little.
然后桃乐西觉得有点颤抖
“Yes,” she answered, “I melted her with a bucket of water.”
她回答说:“是的,”我用一桶水将她融化了。 “
“Dear me,” said the Voice, “how sudden!
「亲爱的我,
Well, come to me tomorrow, for I must have time to think it over.”
明天来找我,因为我一定有时间考虑一下 “
“You’ve had plenty of time already,” said the Tin Woodman angrily.
Tin Woodman愤怒地说,
“We shan’t wait a day longer,” said the Scarecrow.
稻草人说,
“You must keep your promises to us!”
“你必须履行对我们的承诺!”
exclaimed Dorothy.
赞叹多萝西.
The Lion thought it might be as well to frighten the Wizard, so he gave a large, loud roar, which was so fierce and dreadful that Toto jumped away from him in alarm and tipped over the screen that stood in a corner.
狮子认为吓倒巫师也一样好,于是他大叫出声来,非常凶猛而可怕地惊慌地从他身边跳出来,向站在一角的屏幕上告密.
As it fell with a crash they looked that way, and the next moment all of them were filled with wonder.
当坠机时,他们看起来是那样的, 下一瞬间,他们都充满了奇迹。
For they saw, standing in just the spot the screen had hidden, a little old man, with a bald head and a wrinkled face, who seemed to be as much surprised as they were.
他们看到,站在屏幕隐藏的地方, 一个小老人, 头秃了,脸皱皱了, 他们似乎很惊讶。
The Tin Woodman, raising his axe, rushed toward the little man and cried out, “Who are you?”
铁木头人举起斧头冲向小人,叫道:"你是谁? “
“I am Oz, the Great and Terrible,” said the little man, in a trembling voice.
那个小个子说,“我是奥兹,伟大而可怕的人。”
“But don’t strike me— please don’t—and I’ll do anything you want me to.”
“但不要打我, “
Our friends looked at him in surprise and dismay.
我们的朋友惊讶地看着他。
“I thought Oz was a great Head,” said Dorothy.
Dorothy说:“我以为Oz是个伟大的头,”
“ And I thought Oz was a lovely Lady,” said the Scarecrow.
“...... 我认为奥兹是个可爱的女士,“稻草人说。
“ And I thought Oz was a terrible Beast,” said the Tin Woodman.
“...... 我认为奥兹是只可怕的野兽,
“ And I thought Oz was a Ball of Fire,” exclaimed the Lion.
“...... 我认为奥兹是火球,”
“No, you are all wrong,” said the little man meekly.
"不,你们都错了,"小人谦虚地说.
“I have been making believe.”
“我一直相信。 “
“Making believe!”
“相信!”
cried Dorothy.
哭了多萝西。
“ Are you not a Great Wizard?”
“...... 你不是伟大的巫师吗? “
“Hush, my dear,” he said.
他说,“亲爱的,安静”。
“Don’t speak so loud, or you will be overheard—and I should be ruined.
“不要大声说话,否则你会被偷听,我应该被摧毁。
I’m supposed to be a Great Wizard.”
我应该是一位伟大的巫师。 “
“ And aren’t you?”
“...... 难道你不是? “
she asked.
她问。
“Not a bit of it, my dear; I’m just a common man.”
“亲爱的, “
“You’re more than that,” said the Scarecrow, in a grieved tone; “you’re a humbug.”
稻草人以悲哀的语气说,“你不止如此,” “
“Exactly so!”
“当然如此!”
declared the little man, rubbing his hands together as if it pleased him.
宣示小人,并用手摩擦,好像它喜欢他一样。
“I am a humbug.”
“我是一个臭虫。 “
“But this is terrible,” said the Tin Woodman.
Tin Woodman说,
“How shall I ever get my heart?”
“我怎样才能得到我的心? “
“Or I my courage?”
“还是我的勇气? “
asked the Lion.
问狮子.
“Or I my brains?”
“还是我的大脑? “
wailed the Scarecrow, wiping the tears from his eyes with his coat sleeve.
呜咽稻草人,用衣袖擦去眼泪.
“My dear friends,” said Oz, “I pray you not to speak of these little things.
奥兹说:“亲爱的朋友们,”“我祈祷你们不要谈论这些小事。
Think of me, and the terrible trouble I’m in at being found out.”
想想我,想想我遇到的麻烦 “
“Doesn’t anyone else know you’re a humbug?”
”没有人知道你是个臭虫吗? “
asked Dorothy.
问多萝西。
“No one knows it but you four—and myself,” replied Oz.
Oz回答说,“除了你们四个——还有我,没有人知道。”
“I have fooled everyone so long that I thought I should never be found out.
“我愚弄所有人太久了,认为我不应该被发现。
It was a great mistake my ever letting you into the Throne Room.
我让你进入王座室是个大错误
Usually I will not see even my subjects, and so they believe I am something terrible.”
通常我都不会见到我的臣民 所以他们认为我是个可怕的人 “
“But, I don’t understand,” said Dorothy, in bewilderment.
Dorothy说:“但是,
“How was it that you appeared to me as a great Head?”
“你怎么会当我是大头呢? “
“That was one of my tricks,” answered Oz.
Oz回答说,“这是我的伎俩之一。”
“Step this way, please, and I will tell you all about it.”
“请往这边走,我会告诉你一切。 “
He led the way to a small chamber in the rear of the Throne Room, and they all followed him.
他带领路去宝座后方的一个小房间,他们都跟着他.
He pointed to one corner, in which lay the great Head, made out of many thicknesses of paper, and with a carefully painted face.
他指向了一角,在一角上画出由许多厚厚的纸张所制成的大头,并用精心涂抹的相貌.
“This I hung from the ceiling by a wire,” said Oz.
Oz说,“我用电线吊在天花板上”。
“I stood behind the screen and pulled a thread, to make the eyes move and the mouth open.”
“我站在屏幕后并拉起一丝线来使眼睛能移动并张开口。 “
“But how about the voice?”
“但声音如何? “
she inquired.
她问。
“Oh, I am a ventriloquist,” said the little man.
小个子说,
“I can throw the sound of my voice wherever I wish, so that you thought it was coming out of the Head.
“我可以随心所欲地发出我的声音,以便你以为声音是从头部发出的。
Here are the other things I used to deceive you.”
这里还有我以前欺骗你的东西 “
He showed the Scarecrow the dress and the mask he had worn when he seemed to be the lovely Lady.
他向稻草人展示了他看起来可爱的夫人时所穿的衣服和面具.
And the Tin Woodman saw that his terrible Beast was nothing but a lot of skins, sewn together, with slats to keep their sides out.
而"天木活人"则看到,他那可怕的"野兽"不过是一多块皮子,一起缝合,并用花板来挡住他们的一面.
As for the Ball of Fire, the false Wizard had hung that also from the ceiling.
至于"火之球" 假魔法师也挂在天花板上
It was really a ball of cotton, but when oil was poured upon it the ball burned fiercely.
它真的是一球棉花, 但当石油被倒在它上时,球被猛烈地燃烧。
“Really,” said the Scarecrow, “you ought to be ashamed of yourself for being such a humbug.”
“真的,”稻草人说,“你应该为自己这么笨而感到羞愧。 “
“I am—I certainly am,” answered the little man sorrowfully; “but it was the only thing I could do.
“我当然是,”小人悲痛地回答说,“但这是我唯一能做的。
Sit down, please, there are plenty of chairs; and I will tell you my story.”
请坐,椅子很多,我会告诉你我的故事。 “
So they sat down and listened while he told the following tale.
于是他们坐下来听他讲下面的故事。
“I was born in Omaha—” “Why, that isn’t very far from Kansas!”
“我出生在奥马哈,”“为什么,那离堪萨斯不远!”
cried Dorothy.
哭了多萝西。
“No, but it’s farther from here,” he said, shaking his head at her sadly.
“没有,但离这里更远了,”他说,令人痛心地向她摇头。
“When I grew up I became a ventriloquist, and at that I was very well trained by a great master.
“当我长大后,我成为一名口才家,当时我受到一位大师的训练。
I can imitate any kind of a bird or beast.”
我可以模仿任何种类的鸟或野兽. “
Here he mewed so like a kitten that Toto pricked up his ears and looked everywhere to see where she was.
在这里他像只小猫 托托刺穿他的耳朵 到处看看她在哪里
“ After a time,” continued Oz, “I tired of that, and became a balloonist.”
“...... Oz继续说:“我厌倦了, “
“What is that?”
“这是什么? “
asked Dorothy.
问多萝西。
“ A man who goes up in a balloon on circus day, so as to draw a crowd of people together and get them to pay to see the circus,” he explained.
他解释说,“一个在马戏团日上气球以吸引一大批人,让他们付钱去看马戏团。”
“Oh,” she said, “I know.”
“哦,”她说,“我知道。 “
“Well, one day I went up in a balloon and the ropes got twisted, so that I couldn’t come down again.
“有一天,我坐上气球,绳子被扭曲了,我不能再下来了。
It went way up above the clouds, so far that a current of air struck it and carried it many, many miles away.
它在云层上爬得很远, 到目前为止,一股气流击中它, 并载着它很多,很多英里远。
For a day and a night I traveled through the air, and on the morning of the second day I awoke and found the balloon floating over a strange and beautiful country.
一天一夜我穿行于空中,第二天早上我醒来,发现气球漂浮在一个陌生而美丽的国家上.
“It came down gradually, and I was not hurt a bit.
“它逐渐下来,我没有受伤。
But I found myself in the midst of a strange people, who, seeing me come from the clouds, thought I was a great Wizard.
但我发现自己在一个陌生的人中间,他们看到我从云中来,认为我是一个伟大的巫师.
Of course I let them think so, because they were afraid of me, and promised to do anything I wished them to.
当然,我让他们这样想,因为他们害怕我,我答应让他们做我想做的事。
“Just to amuse myself, and keep the good people busy, I ordered them to build this City, and my Palace; and they did it all willingly and well.
“为了取悦自己,为了让善良的人们忙碌起来,我命令他们建造这座城市和我的宫殿;他们都自愿地做了。
Then, as the country was so green and beautiful, I would call it the Emerald City; and to make the name fit better I put green spectacles on all the people, so that everything they saw was green.”
之后,由于国家如此绿而美丽,我称它为"翡翠之城";为了让这个名字更适合,我给所有人放上绿色的外观,让他们看到的一切都是绿色的. “
“But isn’t everything here green?”
“但这里的一切不是绿色的吗? “
asked Dorothy.
问多萝西。
“No more than in any other city,” replied Oz; “but when you wear green spectacles, why of course everything you see looks green to you.
Oz回答说,“在任何其他城市里都一样,”但当你戴着绿色眼镜时,你看到的一切当然都是绿色的。
“The Emerald City was built a great many years ago, for I was a young man when the balloon brought me here, and I am a very old man now.
“翡翠城是多年前建造的,因为气球把我带到这里时我是一个年轻人,现在我是一个非常老的人。
But my people have worn green glasses on their eyes so long that most of them think it really is an Emerald City.
但我的人眼睛上戴了绿色眼镜太久了 他们大多认为那是个翡翠之城
“It certainly is a beautiful place, abounding in jewels and precious metals, and every good thing that is needed to make one happy.
“这里确实是一个美丽之地,充满了珠宝和贵重金属,是使一个人幸福所需要的一切好事。
I have been good to the people, and they like me; but ever since this Palace was built, I have shut myself up and would not see any of them.
我善待众生,他们喜欢我;但自从这座宫殿建成后,我一直闭口不谈,不会看到任何人.
“One of my greatest fears was the Witches, for while I had no magical powers at all I soon found out that the Witches were really able to do wonderful things.
“我最大的恐惧之一是女巫,因为虽然我完全没有魔力,但很快我发现女巫们真的能够做出奇妙的事情。
There were four of them in this country, and they ruled the people who live in the North and South and East and West.
今国有四人,所治之民有南北相克,东西相克.
Fortunately, the Witches of the North and South were good, and I knew they would do me no harm; but the Witches of the East and West were terribly wicked, and had they not thought I was more powerful than they themselves, they would surely have destroyed me.
幸而南北的巫师是好的,我知道他们不会伤害我;但东西的巫师是极恶的;如果他们不认为我比他们自己更强大,他们必定要毁灭我。
As it was, I lived in deadly fear of them for many years; so you can imagine how pleased I was when I heard your house had fallen on the Wicked Witch of the East.
就像以前一样,我生活在对他们致命的恐惧中多年;所以你可以想象,当我听说你的房子倒在了东方邪恶的女巫上时,我是多么的高兴。
“When you came to me, I was willing to promise anything if you would only do away with the other Witch; but, now that you have melted her, I am ashamed to say that I cannot keep my promises.”
“当你来到我身边时,我愿意答应任何事情,如果你只与另一个女巫告别;但是,现在你已经融化了她,我感到羞愧地说,我不能履行我的诺言。 “
“I think you are a very bad man,” said Dorothy.
Dorothy说,“我认为你是一个非常坏的人。”
“Oh, no, my dear; I’m really a very good man, but I’m a very bad Wizard, I must admit.”
“哦,不,亲爱的;我是一个非常好的人,但我是一个非常糟糕的巫师,我必须承认。 “
“Can’t you give me brains?”
“你不能给我大脑吗? “
asked the Scarecrow.
问稻草人.
“You don’t need them.
“你不需要他们。
You are learning something every day.
你每天都在学东西
A baby has brains, but it doesn’t know much.
婴儿有大脑,
Experience is the only thing that brings knowledge, and the longer you are on earth the more experience you are sure to get.”
经验是唯一能带来知识的东西,而你在地球上的时间越长,你肯定获得的经验就越多. “
“That may all be true,” said the Scarecrow, “but I shall be very unhappy unless you give me brains.”
稻草人说,“这或许都是事实,但除非你给我大脑,否则我会很不高兴。 “
The false Wizard looked at him carefully.
那个假巫师仔细看着他
“Well,” he said with a sigh, “I’m not much of a magician, as I said; but if you will come to me tomorrow morning, I will stuff your head with brains.
他叹气地说:我不是魔术师,正如我说过的;如果你们明天早晨来见我,我就用脑子塞住你们的头。
I cannot tell you how to use them, however; you must find that out for yourself.”
但是,我不能告诉你如何使用它们;你必须自己找出来。 “
“Oh, thank you—thank you!”
" 哦,谢谢,谢谢! "
cried the Scarecrow.
哭着稻草人。
“I’ll find a way to use them, never fear!”
「我会想办法使用,
“But how about my courage?”
“但我的勇气如何? “
asked the Lion anxiously.
急着问狮子。
“You have plenty of courage, I am sure,” answered Oz.
“我相信,你有足够的勇气”奥兹回答。
“ All you need is confidence in yourself.
“...... 你只需要对自己有信心
There is no living thing that is not afraid when it faces danger.
没有任何活物在面临危险时不害怕。
The True courage is in facing danger when you are afraid, and that kind of courage you have in plenty.”
真正的勇气是在你害怕的时候面对危险, 以及你拥有的勇气。 “
“Perhaps I have, but I’m scared just the same,” said the Lion.
狮子说:“也许我有,但我同样害怕。”
“I shall really be very unhappy unless you give me the sort of courage that makes one forget he is afraid.”
“除非你给我勇气, “
“Very well, I will give you that sort of courage tomorrow,” replied Oz.
“很好,明天我会给你这种勇气,”奥兹回答说。
“How about my heart?”
“我的心怎么样? “
asked the Tin Woodman.
问天木人.
“Why, as for that,” answered Oz, “I think you are wrong to want a heart.
“为什么,对此,”回答: 奥兹,“我认为你想要一颗心是错误的。
It makes most people unhappy.
令多生不乐.
If you only knew it, you are in luck not to have a heart.”
如果你只知道这一点, 你运气好,没有心脏。 “
“That must be a matter of opinion,” said the Tin Woodman.
Tin Woodman说,“这一定是个意见问题。”
“For my part, I will bear all the unhappiness without a murmur, if you will give me the heart.”
“就我而言,我将忍受所有的不幸福,而不用喃喃自语,如果你给我心脏的话。 “
“Very well,” answered Oz meekly.
“非常好”,Ozmeekly回答说。
“Come to me tomorrow and you shall have a heart.
“明天来找我,你会有一颗心。
I have played Wizard for so many years that I may as well continue the part a little longer.”
我扮演了巫师这么多年了 我可能还要继续这个角色 “
“ And now,” said Dorothy, “how am I to get back to Kansas?”
“...... 现在,“多萝西说,“我怎样才能回到堪萨斯? “
“We shall have to think about that,” replied the little man.
“我们必须考虑这一点,”小人回答说。
“Give me two or three days to consider the matter and I’ll try to find a way to carry you over the desert.
" 给我两到三天时间来考虑此事,我将设法将你带出沙漠。
In the meantime you shall all be treated as my guests, and while you live in the Palace my people will wait upon you and obey your slightest wish.
同时,你们都将被视为我的客人,你们在宫中生活的时候,我的宗族将等待你们,并遵从你们的初衷。
There is only one thing I ask in return for my help—such as it is.
我只要求一件事来回报我的帮助,
You must keep my secret and tell no one I am a humbug.”
你一定要保守我的秘密 不要告诉任何人我是个臭虫 “
They agreed to say nothing of what they had learned, and went back to their rooms in high spirits.
他们同意不说他们学到的东西,高高地回房间去。
Even Dorothy had hope that “The Great and Terrible Humbug,” as she called him, would find a way to send her back to Kansas, and if he did she was willing to forgive him everything.
甚至多萝西也希望她所说的"伟大而可怕的悍马"(The Great and Error Bumbug,"The Great and Break Humbug")能够找到一种方法将她送回堪萨斯州,如果他这样做,她愿意原谅他的一切.
Next morning the Scarecrow said to his friends: “Congratulate me.
第二天早晨,稻草人对他的朋友说:“恭喜我。
I am going to Oz to get my brains at last.
我要去奥兹 终于得到我的大脑。
When I return I shall be as other men are.”
当我回来时,我会像其他人一样 “
“I have always liked you as you were,” said Dorothy simply.
Dorothy简单说:“我一直喜欢你,
“It is kind of you to like a Scarecrow,” he replied.
他回答说,“你喜欢稻草人真好。”
“But surely you will think more of me when you hear the splendid thoughts my new brain is going to turn out.”
“但是,当你听到我的新大脑将要涌现的美好想法时,你一定会更想念我。 “
Then he said good-bye to them all in a cheerful voice and went to the Throne Room, where he rapped upon the door.
然后,他用欢快的嗓子和他们都说再见,然后去王座室,在那里他强奸了门.
“Come in,” said Oz.
奥兹说,“请进”。
The Scarecrow went in and found the little man sitting down by the window, engaged in deep thought.
稻草人进去后发现小人坐在窗边,深思熟虑.
“I have come for my brains,” remarked the Scarecrow, a little uneasily.
稻草人说:“我是来找脑子的,”有点不方便。
“Oh, yes; sit down in that chair, please,” replied Oz.
" 哦,是的;请坐在那把椅子上, " 奥兹回答说。
“You must excuse me for taking your head off, but I shall have to do it in order to put your brains in their proper place.”
“你必须原谅我砍下你的头,但我必须这样做,以便把你的大脑放在适当的位置。 “
“That’s all right,” said the Scarecrow.
稻草人说,
“You are quite welcome to take my head off, as long as it will be a better one when you put it on again.”
“非常欢迎你砍下我的头,只要你再戴上它会更好。 “
So the Wizard unfastened his head and emptied out the straw.
于是巫师解出头来取出稻草.
Then he entered the back room and took up a measure of bran, which he mixed with a great many pins and needles.
后来他入后室取出一分布伦,并用一分多的针和针来混合.
Having shaken them together thoroughly, he filled the top of the Scarecrow’s head with the mixture and stuffed the rest of the space with straw, to hold it in place.
他把稻草人头顶部的混入了混合物中,
When he had fastened the Scarecrow’s head on his body again he said to him, “Hereafter you will be a great man, for I have given you a lot of bran-new brains.”
当他把稻草人的头套在他的身上的时候,他又对他说:“在这之后,你将是一个伟大的人,因为我给了你许多新大脑。 “
The Scarecrow was both pleased and proud at the fulfillment of his greatest wish, and having thanked Oz warmly he went back to his friends.
稻草人对他的最大愿望的实现感到高兴和骄傲,在热情感谢了奥兹之后,他回到了自己的朋友们身边.
Dorothy looked at him curiously.
多萝西好奇地看着他
His head was quite bulged out at the top with brains.
他的脑袋在顶部 和大脑相当的膨胀。
“How do you feel?”
“你感觉如何? “
she asked.
她问。
“I feel wise indeed,” he answered earnestly.
“我确实觉得很明智,”他认真回答。
“When I get used to my brains I shall know everything.”
“当我习惯了头脑,我就会知道一切。 “
“Why are those needles and pins sticking out of your head?”
“为什么这些针和针刺会插出你的脑袋? “
asked the Tin Woodman.
