Curse thee, thou quadrant!" dashing it to the deck, "no longer will I guide my earthly way by thee; the level ship's compass, and the level deadreckoning, by log and by line; these shall conduct me, and show me my place on the sea. Aye," lighting from the boat to the deck, "thus I trample on thee, thou paltry thing that feebly pointest on high; thus I split and destroy thee!"

該死的，你這象限儀；"說著，他把象限儀狠狠地往甲板上一摜，"我再也不要你領(lǐng)路啦；那種平面的羅盤針，那種靠測程儀和航線做出來的平面的推測航行法，這些東西將會指引我，把我在海上的地位顯示出來。"他從小艇上下到甲板來，"所以我要狠狠地踩你，你這個(gè)最無法高望的下賤東西；因此，我要踩碎你，踩壞你！"

As the frantic old man thus spoke and thus trampled with his live and dead feet, a sneering triumph that seemed meant for Ahab, and a fatalistic despair that seemed meant for himself — these passed over the mute, motionless Parsee's face. Unobserved he rose and glided away; while, awestruck by the aspect of their commander, the seamen clustered together on the forecastle, till Ahab, troubledly pacing the deck, shouted out — "To the braces! Up helm! — square in!"

當(dāng)這個(gè)瘋狂的老人這樣且說且用他那好腳、壞腳輪流踩著的時(shí)候，那個(gè)悶聲不響、一動不動的祆教徒的臉上似乎剎地閃出這樣的神色：一方面似乎在嘲弄亞哈的勝利，一方面又在為自己那致命的失望而哀傷。他悄悄地站了起來，溜掉了；至于那些水手都讓他們的船長那副姿態(tài)給嚇壞了，相率擠在船頭樓里。后來，亞哈在甲板上困惑地踱來踱去，高聲嚷著——"到轉(zhuǎn)帆索那邊去！轉(zhuǎn)航，使船向風(fēng)！——直駛！"他們這才紛紛下來。

In an instant the yards swung round; and as the ship half-wheeled upon her heel, her three firm-seated graceful masts erectly poised upon her long, ribbed hull, seemed as the three Horatii pirouetting on one sufficient steed.

帆桁立刻都轉(zhuǎn)動了，船身半斜半旋，它那三根裝得很牢的雅致的桅桿，筆直地豎在長長的以肋材加固的船殼上。三根桅桿就象是騎在駿馬身上急轉(zhuǎn)的荷拉第三弟兄（荷拉第三弟兄——羅馬野史中荷拉第之子，在與阿耳巴、朗加城的庫里亞第三弟兄作戰(zhàn)時(shí)，三弟兄中兩人陣亡，后來僅存的一人佯裝逃奔，計(jì)滅庫里亞第三弟兄。）。

Standing between the knight-heads, Starbuck watched the Pequod's tumultuous way, and Ahab's also, as he went lurching along the deck.

斯達(dá)巴克站在船首斜桅的支撐桿中間，望著"裴廓德號"這種激動的情況，也望著亞哈沿著甲板東歪西倒地走去的激動的樣子。
