In Part 9 of Through the Looking-Glass, Alice finds herself stuck between two argumentative queens.
爱丽丝发现自己被困在两个争论皇后之间
and there were even a few flowers among them.
他们中间甚至有几朵花
“I’m glad they’ve come without waiting to be asked,” she thought: “I should never have known who were the right people to invite!”
我本不该知道谁才是合适的人。
There were three chairs at the head of the table; the Red and White Queens had already taken two of them, but the middle one was empty.
桌头有三把椅子;红白后人已经取了两把,但中间一把是空的.
Alice sat down in it, rather uncomfortable in the silence, and longing for someone to speak.
爱丽丝坐在里面,在沉默中相当不舒服,并渴望有人说话.
At last the Red Queen began.
终于红后开始.
“You’ve missed the soup and fish,” she said.
“你错过了汤和鱼,”她说。
“Put on the joint!”
“把关节拉上!”
And the waiters set a leg of mutton before Alice, who looked at it rather anxiously, as she had never had to carve a joint before.
而服务生们在爱丽丝面前摆出一条羊腿来,她相当焦急地看着它,因为她以前从来没有刻过一根关节.
“You look a little shy; let me introduce you to that leg of mutton,” said the Red Queen.
红后说,“你看起来有点害羞;让我向你介绍羊腿。”
“ Alice— Mutton; Mutton—Alice.”
" 爱丽丝-穆顿;穆顿-艾利斯. “
The leg of mutton got up in the dish and made a little bow to Alice; and Alice returned the bow, not knowing whether to be frightened or amused.
羊腿上菜后向爱丽丝鞠了一小躬;爱丽丝还回了弓,不知是被吓倒还是被取笑.
“May I give you a slice?”
“我可以给你一块吗? “
she said, looking from one Queen to the other.
她说,从一个皇后到另一个。
“Certainly not,” the Red Queen said, very decidedly: “it isn’t etiquette to cut any one you’ve been introduced to.
红后说, “当然不是,”非常坚决地说,“切入任何你介绍的人都不是礼仪。
Remove the joint!”
拿掉关节!”
And the waiters carried it off, and brought a large plum- pudding in its place.
侍从们把它抬走, 并带来了一个大梅布丁 代替它。
“I won’t be introduced to the pudding, please,” Alice said rather hastily, “or we shall get no dinner at all.
爱丽丝匆匆地说,“否则我们根本得不到晚餐。
May I give you some?”
我可以给你一些吗? “
But the Red Queen looked sulky, and growled, “Pudding—Alice; Alice—Pudding.
但是,红后看起来很闷闷并咆哮,“Pudding-Alice;Alice-Pudding。
Remove the pudding!”
拿起布丁来!”
and the waiters took it away so quickly that Alice couldn’t return its bow.
服务员迅速拿走了它,
However, she didn’t see why the Red Queen should be the only one to give orders, so, as an experiment, she called out, “Waiter!
然而,她不明白为什么只有红后才应该下命令,所以作为一个实验,她喊道"等待!
Bring back the pudding!”
把布丁拿回来!”
and there it was again in a moment like a conjuring-trick.
它再次在那一刻 像一个受伤的特里克。
It was so large that she couldn’t help feeling a little shy with it, as she had been with the mutton; however, she conquered her shyness by a great effort and cut a slice and handed it to the Red Queen.
如此之大,她忍不住感到有点害羞,就像她曾经和羊肉在一起一样;然而,她通过巨大的努力征服了自己的害羞并切出一刀,交给了红后.
“What impertinence!”
"何等无礼!"
said the Pudding.
说普丁。
“I wonder how you’ d like it, if I were to cut a slice out of you, you creature!”
"我想知道你喜欢它,如果我割出你一块,你这个怪物!"
It spoke in a thick, suety sort of voice, and Alice hadn’t a word to say in reply: she could only sit and look at it and gasp.
爱丽丝却无话可说:她只能坐视而喘气。
“Make a remark,” said the Red Queen: “it’s ridiculous to leave all the conversation to the pudding!”
红后说:"把所有的谈话都留给布丁,这是荒谬的! “
“Do you know, I’ve had such a quantity of poetry repeated to me today,” Alice began, a little frightened at finding that, the moment she opened her lips, there was dead silence, and all eyes were fixed upon her; “and it’s a very curious thing, I think—every poem was about fishes in some way.
“你知道,我今天重复了这么多诗歌,”爱丽丝开始,有点害怕地发现,当她张开嘴唇时,寂静死了,所有的眼睛都固定在她身上;“我认为,这是一件非常奇怪的事情——每一首诗都以某种方式涉及鱼。
Do you know why they’re so fond of fishes, all about here?”
他们为何喜欢鱼? “
She spoke to the Red Queen, whose answer was a little wide of the mark.
她与"红后"交谈,后者的回答略为宽了一点.
“ As to fishes,” she said, very slowly and solemnly, putting her mouth close to Alice’s ear, “her White Majesty knows a lovely riddle—all in poetry—all about fishes.
“...... 关于鱼,“她说,非常缓慢而庄严地将口腔贴近爱丽丝的耳朵,“她的白王陛下知道一个可爱的谜语——在诗中——所有关于鱼的谜语。
Shall she repeat it?”
她要重复一遍吗? “
“Her Red Majesty’s very kind to mention it,” the White Queen murmured into Alice’s other ear, in a voice like the cooing of a pigeon.
白后在爱丽丝的另一只耳朵里, 用鸽子的叫声,
“It would be such a treat!
“这将是一种待遇!
May I?”
可以吗? “
“Please do,” Alice said very politely.
爱丽丝很礼貌地说,“请去做。”
The White Queen laughed with delight, and stroked Alice’s cheek.
白后笑了起来,
Then she began: “‘First, the fish must be caught.’
然后她开始说:“首先,鱼必须被捕获。 " ; "
That is easy: a baby, I think, could have caught it.
这很简单:一个婴儿,我想,可能已经抓住它。
‘Next, the fish must be bought.’
曰:"下取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取. " ; "
That is easy: a penny, I think, would have bought it.
这很简单:我认为,一分钱是买来的。
‘Now cook me the fish!’
现在给我煮鱼! " ; "
That is easy, and will not take more than a minute.
这很简单,而且不会超过一分钟。
‘Let it lie in a dish!’
让它躺在一盘菜里! " ; "
That is easy, because it already is in it.
这很简单,因为它已经在里面了。
‘Bring it here!
- 带过来!
Let me sup!’
让我来! " ; "
It is easy to set such a dish on the table.
摆上这样的一盘菜很容易。
‘Take the dish-cover up!’
‘拿起盘子盖上! " ; "
Ah, that is so hard that I fear I’m unable!
这太难了,
For it holds it like glue— Holds the lid to the dish, while it lies in the middle: Which is easiest to do, Un-dish-cover the fish, or dishcover the riddle?”
因为它像胶水一样粘住它 握住盘子的盖子,而盘子位于中间: 哪个最容易做, 隐蔽的鱼, 还是隐蔽的谜语? “
“Take a minute to think about it, and then guess,” said the Red Queen.
红后说,
“Meanwhile, we’ll drink your health—Queen Alice’s health!”
"同时,我们将喝你的健康... 爱丽丝女王的健康!
she screamed at the top of her voice, and all the guests began drinking it directly, and very queerly they managed it: some of them put their glasses upon their heads like extinguishers, and drank all that trickled down their faces—others upset the decanters, and drank the wine as it ran off the edges of the table—and three of them (who looked like kangaroos) scrambled into the dish of roast mutton, and began eagerly lapping up the gravy, “Just like pigs in a trough!”
她喊叫着,所有的客人都直接饮了它,他们很怪异地管理它:他们中有的人把眼镜放在头上,像灭火器一样;他们喝倒了他们的脸;有的人使酒鬼们烦恼;有的人饮了从桌子边冲走的酒;有三人(看起来像袋鼠)冲入了烤羊肉的盘子里;有的人急切地把肉汁抽起来,“就像猪倒在地上!”
thought Alice.
以为爱丽丝。
“You ought to return thanks in a neat speech,” the Red Queen said, frowning at Alice as she spoke.
红后说,“你应该用一个整洁的演讲回来,”当她说话的时候,她对爱丽丝发了皱眉。
“We must support you, you know,” the White Queen whispered, as Alice got up to do it, very obediently, but a little frightened.
“我们必须支持你,你知道,”白后悄悄地说道,爱丽丝起来时非常听话,但有点害怕。
“Thank you very much,” she whispered in reply, “but I can do quite well without.”
她回答说,“非常感谢,”她低声回答说,“但是,没有我,我可以做得很好。 “
“That wouldn’t be at all the thing,” the Red Queen said very decidedly: so Alice tried to submit to it with a good grace.
因此爱丽丝试图以优雅的方式顺从。
squeeze me flat!”
压平我!”
In fact it was rather difficult for her to keep in her place while she made her speech: the two Queens pushed her so, one on each side, that they nearly lifted her up into the air: “I rise to return thanks—” Alice began: and she really did rise as she spoke, several inches; but she got hold of the edge of the table, and managed to pull herself down again.
事实上,在她发表演讲时,她很难保持原位:两个皇后把她推倒了,两边各一个,他们几乎把她抬到空中去:"我起来感谢——"爱丽丝开始:她说话的时候真的站起来了,有几英寸;但是她抓住了桌子的边缘,设法再次拉倒了.
“Take care of yourself!”
“照顾好自己!”
screamed the White Queen, seizing Alice’s hair with both her hands.
呼喊着"白后",用双手抓住了爱丽丝的头发.
“Something’s going to happen!”
“事情即将发生!”
And then (as Alice afterwards described it) all sorts of things happened in a moment.
然后(正如爱丽丝事后所描述的)各种事情在一瞬间发生了.
The candles all grew up to the ceiling, looking something like a bed of rushes with fireworks at the top.
蜡烛都长到天花板上,外观一副在顶上放起烟花的"急"床.
As to the bottles, they each took a pair of plates, which they hastily fitted on as wings, and so, with forks for legs, went fluttering about in all directions: “ And very like birds they look,” Alice thought to herself, as well as she could in the dreadful confusion that was beginning.
至于瓶子,他们各自取出一对盘子,它们匆忙地装上作为翅膀,因此用叉子指着双腿向四面八方飞去:“和它们看起来的鸟一样,”爱丽丝想着自己,她可能在开始的可怕混乱中。
At this moment she heard a hoarse laugh at her side, and turned to see what was the matter with the White Queen; but, instead of the Queen, there was the leg of mutton sitting in the chair.
此时她听到一个粗鲁的笑她一面,转而看到白后到底怎么了;但是,不是女王,而是羊腿坐在椅子上.
“Here I am!”
“我来了!”
cried a voice from the soup tureen, and Alice turned again, just in time to see the Queen’s broad good-natured face grinning at her for a moment over the edge of the tureen, before she disappeared into the soup.
爱丽丝再次转身, 恰好及时看到王后那张宽阔的好心脸, 在她消失入汤中之前,
There was not a moment to be lost.
没有一刻可以失去。
Already several of the guests were lying down in the dishes, and the soup ladle was walking up the table towards Alice’s chair, and beckoning to her impatiently to get out of its way.
已经有几个客人躺在盘子上,汤桶正向着爱丽丝的椅子上走去,并急切地向她求饶。
“I can’t stand this any longer!”
我再也受不了了!
she cried as she jumped up and seized the table-cloth with both hands: one good pull, and plates, dishes, guests, and candles came crashing down together in a heap on the floor.
当她跳起并用两只手抓住桌布时,她哭了起来:一副好拉,而盘子、盘子、客人和蜡烛一起在地上撞倒了。
“ And as for you,” she went on, turning fiercely upon the Red Queen, whom she considered as the cause of all the mischief—but the Queen was no longer at her side—she had suddenly dwindled down to the size of a little doll, and was now on the table, merrily running round and round after her own shawl, which was trailing behind her.
“...... 至于你,她就转身猛烈地攻击了红后,她认为红后是一切恶行的根源,但红后已不在她身边了,她忽然跌倒到一个小娃娃的地平地平地平地平地平地平地平地走在桌子上,在她身后紧跟在后面的披肩后,欢快地跑来跑去。
At any other time, Alice would have felt surprised at this, but she was far too much excited to be surprised at anything now.
在任何其他时间,爱丽丝都会对此感到惊讶,但她现在对任何事都感到惊奇过度.
“ As for you,” she repeated, catching hold of the little creature in the very act of jumping over a bottle which had just lighted upon the table, “I’ll shake you into a kitten, that I will!”
“...... 至于你,“她重复说,在跳过一瓶酒时抓住了这个小生物,那瓶酒刚刚点亮了桌子,“我要把你摇到一只小猫上去!”

第 十 章 结 论
Shaking he took her off the table as she spoke, and shook her backwards and forwards with all her might.
摇摇晃晃地把她从桌子上拉下,用她的所有力量向后摇摆并向前.
The Red Queen made no resistance whatever; only her face grew very small, and her eyes got large and green: and still, as Alice went on shaking her, she kept on growing shorter— and fatter—and softer—and rounder—and— CHAPTER XI.
红后没有进行任何抵抗;只有她的脸变得非常小,她的眼睛变得又大又绿:然而,随着爱丽丝继续摇晃她,她不断变短,变胖,变软,变圆了,第十一章。
Waking nd it really was a kitten, after all.
醒来后,它真的是一只小猫,毕竟。
CHAPTER XII.
第十二章
Which Dreamed It?
什么梦?
Alice said, rubbing her eyes, and addressing the kitten, respectfully, yet with some severity.
爱丽丝说, 擦她的眼睛, 和说话的小猫, 恭敬地,
“You woke me out of oh!
"你把我吵醒了!
such a nice dream!
这么好的梦!
And you’ve been along with me, Kitty—all through the Looking-glass world.
你一直跟我在一起,凯蒂 —— 都经过了望镜世界。
Did you know it, dear?”
你知道吗,亲爱的? “
It is a very inconvenient habit of kittens (Alice had once made the remark) that, whatever you say to them, they always purr.
猫咪的习惯很不方便(爱丽丝曾经说过话),
“If they would only purr for ‘yes’ and mew for ‘no’ or any rule of that sort,” she had said, ”so that one could keep up a conversation!
她说,“如果他们只求‘是',
But how can you talk with a person if they always say the same thing?”
但是,如果一个人总是说同样的话,你怎么能说话呢? “
On this occasion the kitten only purred: and it was impossible to guess whether it meant “yes” or “no.”
这时小猫只被取出:无法猜测它指的是“是”还是“不是”。
So Alice hunted among the chessmen on the table till she had found the Red Queen: then she went down on her knees on the hearth-rug, and put the kitten and the Queen to look at each other.
于是爱丽丝在桌上的棋手中打猎,直到她找到"红后":然后她跪倒在了耳环上,把小猫和"后"放在一起相看.
“Now, Kitty!”
"现在,凯蒂!"
she cried, clapping her hands triumphantly.
她哭了,拍手胜利。
“Confess that was what you turned into!”
你们变成这样吗?
“it turned away its head, and pretended not to see it: but it looked a little ashamed of itself, so I think it must have been the Red Queen.”
“它掉头了,假装看不见它:但它看起来有点羞愧,所以我认为一定是红后. “
“Sit up a little more stiffly, dear!”
"坐下来,亲爱的!"
Alice cried with a merry laugh.
爱丽丝大笑地哭了
“ And curtsey while you’re thinking what to—what to purr.
“...... 在你思考什么时,
It saves time, remember!”
它节省了时间,记住!”
And she caught it up and gave it one little kiss, “just in honour of having been a Red Queen.”
她抓住了它,给了它一个小小的吻,“只是为了纪念自己是红后. “
“Snowdrop, my pet!”
"雪地,我的宠物!"
she went on, looking over her shoulder at the White Kitten, which was still patiently undergoing its toilet, “when will Dinah have finished with your White Majesty, I wonder?
她继续看着仍在耐心地上厕所的"白猫",
That must be the reason you were so untidy in my dream—Dinah!
这一定是你在我的梦中 如此不倦的原因 迪纳!
Do you know that you’re scrubbing a White Queen?
你知道你在擦白皇后吗?
Really, it’s most disrespectful of you!
真的,这最不尊重你!
“ And what did Dinah turn to, I wonder?”
“...... Dinah转身了,我想知道? “
she prattled on, as she settled comfortably down, with one elbow in the rug, and her chin in her hand, to watch the kittens.
在她舒适地安顿下来时, 她把一肘放在地毯上,把下巴放在手上, 看着小猫。
“Tell me, Dinah, did you turn to Humpty Dumpty?
“告诉我,迪纳,你转向了胖子?
I think you did—however, you’ d better not mention it to your friends just yet, for I’m not sure.
我认为你确实这么做了,
“By the way, Kitty, if only you’ d been really with me in my dream, there was one thing you would have enjoyed—I had such a quantity of poetry said to me, all about fishes!
"顺便说一句,凯蒂,如果你真的和我在一起 在我梦中,有一件事你会享受... 我有这么多的诗 对我说,所有关于鱼!
Tomorrow morning you shall have a real treat.
明天早上你会有一个真正的招待。
All the time you’re eating your breakfast, I’ll repeat ‘The Walrus and the Carpenter’ to you; and then you can make believe it’s oysters, dear!
每当你吃早餐时, 我都会重复「海象与木匠」,
“Now, Kitty, let’s consider who it was that dreamed it all.
「现在,
This is a serious question, my dear, and you should not go on licking your paw like that—as if Dinah hadn’t washed you this morning!
亲爱的,你不应该这样舔你的爪子,
“You see, Kitty, it must have been either me or the Red King.
“你看,凯蒂,一定是我或红王。
He was part of my dream, of course—but then I was part of his dream, too!
他当然是我梦想的一部分,但后来我也是他梦想的一部分!
Was it the Red King, Kitty?
是红王吗,凯蒂?
You were his wife, my dear, so you ought to know—Oh, Kitty, do help to settle it!
你是他妻子 亲爱的 你应该知道... 哦,凯蒂,帮帮忙
I’m sure your paw can wait!”
我敢肯定,你的爪子可以等待。
But the provoking kitten only began on the other paw, and pretended it hadn’t heard the question.
但激起小猫只从另一只爪子上开始,
Which do you think it was?
你觉得是哪个?
A boat beneath a sunny sky, Lingering onward dreamily In an evening of July— Children three that nestle near, Eager eye and willing ear, Pleased a simple tale to hear— Long has paled that sunny sky: Echoes fade and memories die.
一艘船在阳光的天空下 梦想着继续前进 在7月的一晚上, 有三个孩子 靠近巢穴, 眼睛和心甘情愿的耳朵, 很高兴听到一个简单的故事—— Long 抚摸了阳光的天空: 回声会消失,记忆会消失
Autumn frosts have slain July.
秋霜已杀七月.
Still she haunts me, phantomwise, Alice moving under skies Never seen by waking eyes.
她仍然缠着我 幽灵 爱丽丝在天空下行走 醒来就看不见
Children yet, the tale to hear, Eager eye and willing ear, Lovingly shall nestle near.
孩子们,听到的故事, 耳光和爱的耳朵, 可爱的会靠近。
In a Wonderland they lie, Dreaming as the days go by, Dreaming as the summers die: Ever drifting down the stream— Lingering in the golden gleam— Life, what is it but a dream?
在奇幻之地,他们说谎 梦想随着日子的到来 梦想随着夏天的到来而死去 曾经从溪流中漂来漂去——在金色的光芒下徘徊——人生,除了梦是什么?
