美國(guó)語(yǔ)文第六冊(cè) 第284期:不滿(mǎn)(8)

The heap was at last distributed among the two sexes, who made a most piteous sight, as they wandered up and down under the pressure of their several burthens.

最后，這個(gè)大堆在兩個(gè)性別之間進(jìn)行分配，他們?cè)谏砩系呢?fù)擔(dān)重壓下踉踉蹌蹌，發(fā)出一聲最令人憐憫的嘆息。

The whole plain was filled with murmurs and complaints, groans and lamentations.

整個(gè)平地到處都是小聲嘟囔聲和抱怨聲，還有呻吟和悲嘆聲。

Jupiter, at length taking compassion on the poor mortals, ordered them a second time to lay down their loads, with a design to give everyone his own again.

最終，朱庇特對(duì)這些可憐人表示同情，下令讓他們第二次卸下身上的重負(fù)，打算再次還給每個(gè)人屬于他自己的東西。

 

They discharged themselves with a great deal of pleasure; after which, the phantom who had led them into such gross delusions, was commanded to disappear.

他們非常高興地放下身上背的東西，稍后，讓他們產(chǎn)生如此大錯(cuò)覺(jué)的幽靈，在朱庇特的命令下消失不見(jiàn)了。

There was sent in her stead a goddess of a quite different figure: her motions were steady and composed, and her aspect serious but cheerful.

替代她的是一位形象完全不同的女神：她舉止安詳，泰然自若，她的神情雖然很?chē)?yán)肅，但令人愉快。

She every now and then cast her eyes toward heaven, and fixed them upon Jupiter. Her name was Patience.

她不時(shí)舉目仰望上空，然后凝視著朱庇特。她的名字是耐心。
