ACT3 Scene2 Hall in the Castle城堡中的厅堂-双语名著无障碍阅读丛书——《哈姆雷特Hamlet》

Scene I.Hall in the Castle. Enter Hamlet and Certain the Players. Ham. Speak the speech,I pray you,as I pronounc'd it to you trippingly on the tongue;but if you mouth it,as many of our players do,I had as live the town-crier had spoke my lines.Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand thus,but use all gently;for in the very torrent,tempest,and as I may say whirlwind of your passion,you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness.O!It offends me to the soul, to hear a robustious⑤periwig⑦-pated fellow tear a passion to tatters⑧，to very rags,to split the ears of the groundlings;who for the most part are capable of nothing,but inexplicable dumb-shows and noise:I would have such a fellow whipp'd for o'erdoing Termagant;it out-herods Herod. Pray you avoid it. Ist.Player.I warrant your honour. Ham. Be not too tame neither;but let your own discretion be your tutor.Suit the action to the word,the word to the action;with this special observance, that you o'erstep not the modesty of nature:for anything so overdone is from the purpose of playing,whose end both at the first and now,was and is,to hold as'twere the mirror up to nature;to show virtue her own feature, ·132· 第二场 城堡中的厅堂 哈姆雷特及若干伶人上。 ①trippingly[tripinli]ad.轻 快地 哈姆雷特请你念这段剧词的时候，要照我刚才读给你 听的那样子，一个字一个字打舌头上很轻快地吐 出来；要是你也像多数的伶人们一样，只会拉开 ②torrent['torant]a.湍急的 3 whirlwind ['hwo:lwind]n. 了喉咙嘶叫，那么我宁愿叫那宣布告示的公差念 旋风 ④beget [bi'gelk产生 我这几行词句。也不要老是把你的手在空中这么 5 temperance ['temparans]n. 摇挥；一切动作都要温文，因为就是在洪水暴风 节欲 robustious [rou'bAstfas]a. 一样的感情激发之中，你也必须取得一种节制，免 粗暴的 ⑦periwig ['periwigl n,假发 得流于过火。啊！我顶不愿意听见一个披着满头假 ⑧tatter【'teto]n.碎布 发的家伙在台上乱嚷乱叫，把一段感情片片撕碎， groundling ['graundlin]n. 缺乏鉴赏力的人 让那些只爱热闹的下层观众听了出神，他们中间 inexplicable Linik'splikabl] a.费解的 的大部分除了欣赏一些莫名其妙的哑剧和喧嚣以 Termagant ['to:magont]n. (中世纪基督教徒想像中 外，什么都不懂。我可以把这种家伙抓起来抽一顿 的)伊斯兰教狂暴之神 鞭子，因为他把妥玛刚特形容过分，希律王的凶暴 也要对他甘拜下风一）。请你留心避免才好。 甲伶我留心着就是了，殿下。 @tame [teim]a.平淡的 哈姆雷特可是太平淡了也不对，你应该接受你自己的 常识的指导，把动作和言语互相配合起来；特别 (一)妥玛刚特（Termagant),传说中残恶凶暴之回教女神。 希律(H©rod),耶稣时代统治伽利利之暴君。二者为往时教训刷 (motality)及神迹刚(mystery)中常见之角色。 ·133· Hamlet scorn her own image,and the very age and body of the time,his form and pressure.Now,this overdone,or come tardy off,though it make the unskilful laugh,cannot but make the judicious grieve;the censure of the which one,must in your allowance o'erweigh a whole theatre of others.O!There be players that I have seen play,and heard others praise, and that highly not to speak it profanely,that neither having the accent of Christians,nor the gait of Christian,pagan,nor man,have so strutted and bellowed that I have thought some of nature's journeymen had made men,and not made them well,they imitated humanity so abominably. 1st.Player.I hope we have reform'd that indifferently with us,sir. Ham.O!Reform it altogether.And let those that play your clowns,speak no more than is set down for them.For there be of them,that will themselves laugh, to set on some quantity of barren spectators to laugh too,though in the meantime some necessary question of the play be then to be considered; that's villanous and shows a most pitiful ambition in the fool that uses it. Go make you ready. Exeunt Players. Enter Polonius,Rosencrantz,and Guildenstern. How now,my lord?Will the king hear this piece of work? Pol. And the queen too,and that presently. Ham. Bid the players make haste, Exit Polonius. Will you two help to hasten them? Both.We will,my lord. Exeunt they two. Ham. What,ho,Horatio! ·134· 哈姆雷特「 要注意到这一点，你不能越过人情的常道；因为 ①tardy ['ta:da.迟缓的 不近情理的过分描写，是和演剧的原意相反的， ②judicious [d3u:'difas]a.明 智的 自有戏剧以来，它的目的始终是反映人生，显示 ③grieve[gri:v]v悲痛 善恶的本来面目，给它的时代看一看它自己演变 profanely Iprau'feinlil ad. 发展的模型。要是表演得过分了或者太懈怠了， 污秽地 虽然可以博外行的观众一笑，明眼之士却要因此 ⑤pagan['peigan]n.异教徒 @strut [strAt]v.高视阔步 而皱眉；你必须看重这样一个卓识者的批评甚于 abominablely [o'bominobli] 满场观众盲目的毁誉。啊！我曾经看见有几个伶 ad.低劣地 人演戏，而且也听见有人把他们极口捧场，说一 句并不过分的话，他们既不会说基督徒的语言， 又不会学着人的样子走路，瞧他们在台上大摇大 摆，使劲叫喊的样子，我心里就想一定是什么造 化的雇工把他们造了下来，造得这样拙劣，以至 于全然失去了人类的面目。 甲伶我希望我们在这方面已经相当纠正过来了。 哈姆雷特啊！你们必须彻底纠正这一种弊病，还有你 们那些扮演小丑的，除了剧本上专为他们写下的 ⑧barren[baran]a.沉闷无 台词以外，不要让他们临时编造一些话加上去。 趣的 往往有许多小丑爱用自己的笑声，引起台下一些 无知的观众的哄笑，虽然那时候全场的注意力应 当集中于其他更重要的问题上；这种行为是不可 恕的，它表示出那丑角的可鄙的野心。去，准备 起来吧。（伶人等同下） 波洛尼厄斯，罗森格兰兹及吉尔登斯吞上。 哈姆雷特啊，大人，王上愿意来听这一本戏吗？ 波洛尼厄斯他跟娘娘都就要来了。 哈姆雷特叫那些戏子们赶紧点儿。（波洛尼厄斯下） 你们两人也去帮着催催他们。 罗森格兰兹、吉尔登斯吞是，殿下。 罗森格兰兹、吉尔登斯吞下。 哈姆雷特喂，霍拉旭！ ·135· Hamlet Enter Horatio. Hor. Here sweet lord,at your service. Ham.Horatio,thou art e'en as just a man As e'er my conversation cop'd withal. Hor. O my dear lord. Ham. Nay,do not think I flatter: For what advancement may I hope from thee, That no revenue hast,but thy good spirits To feed and clothe thee?Why should the poor be flatter'd? No,let the candied tongue,lick absurd③pomp①， And crook the pregnant hinges of the knee, Where thrift may follow fawning.Dost thou hear? Since my dear soul was mistress of her choice, And could of men distinguish,her election Hath scald thee for herself.For thou hast been As one in suff'ring all,that suffers nothing. A man that fortune's buffets and rewards Hast ta'en with equal thanks.And blest are those, Whose blood and judgment are so well commingled, That they are not a pipe for fortune's finger, To sound what stop she please.Give me that man, That is not passion's slave,and I will wear him In my heart's core,ay,in my heart of heart, As I do thee.Something too much of this. There is a play to-night before the king; One scene of it comes near the circumstance, Which I have told thee,of my father's death. I prithee,when thou seest that act afoot, Even with the very comment of thy soul Observe my uncle:if his occulted guilt, Do not itself unkennel in one speech, It is a damned ghost that we have seen, And my imaginations are as foul As Vulcan's stithy.Give him heedful note; ·136· 哈姆雷特 霍拉旭上。 霍拉旭有，殿下。 哈姆雷特霍拉旭，你是我所交往的人中最正直的一个。 霍拉旭啊，殿下！ 哈姆雷特不，不要以为我在恭维你；你除了你的善 advancement (ad'va:nsmant] 良的精神以外，身无长物，我恭维了你又有什么 n进步 ②revenue['revonju]n,收益 好处呢？为什么要向穷人恭维？不，让蜜糖一样 的嘴唇吮舐愚妄的荣华，在有利可图的所在屈下 ③absurd [ab'so:da.荒谬的 他们生财有道的膝盖来吧。听着，自从我能够辨 ④pomp Ipompl n.浮华 ⑤crook [kruk灯k弯曲 别是非，察择贤愚以后，你就是我灵魂里选中的 一个人，因为你虽然经历一切的颠沛，却不曾受 到一点伤害，命运的虐待和恩宠，你都是受之泰 然；能够把感情和理智调整得那么适当，命运不 能把他玩弄于指掌之间，那样的人是有福的。给 @buffet[bafit]m.折磨 我一个不为感情所奴役的人，我愿意把他珍藏在 我的心坎，我的灵魂的深处，正像我对你一样。 commingle [ka'mingll v. 这些话现在也不必多说了。今晚我们要在国王面 混合 前演一出戏，其中有一场的情节跟我告诉过你的 我的父亲的死状颇相仿佛；当那幕戏正在串演的 时候，我要请你集中你的全副精神，注视我的叔 父，要是他在听到了那一段剧词以后，他的隐藏 的罪恶还是不露出一丝痕迹来，那么我们所看见 的那个鬼魂一定是个恶魔，我的幻想也就像铁匠 的砧石那样漆黑一团了。留心看好他；我也要把 我的眼睛看定他的脸上；过后我们再把各人观察 的结果综合起来，给他下一个判断。 ⑧occult ['okAlt],掩蔽 @unkennel [An'kenol]v揭 @ulcan ['vAlkan]n.【罗马 神话伏尔甘（火神，即 希腊神话中的赫准斯托 斯) @stithy'stioil n.铁砧 @heedful[hi:dful]a.注意 的 ·137· Hamlet For I mine eyes will rivet to his face, And after we will both our judgments join, To censure of his seeming.
