第65章 自然之趣(15)

I was up the next morning before the October sunrise,and away through the wild and the woodland.The rising of the sun was noble in the cold and warmth of it.Peeping down the spread of light,he raised his shoulder heavily over the edge of grey mountain and wavering length of upland.[A]Beneath his gaze the dew-fogs dipped,and crept to the hollow places;then stole away in line and column,holding skirts,and clinging subtIy at the sheltering corners where rock hung over grassland,while the brave lines of the hills came forth,one beyond other gliding.

The woods arose in folds,like drapery of awakened mountains,stately with a depth of awe and memory of the tempests.Autumn's mellow hand was upon them,as they owned already,touched with gold and red and olive,and their joy towards the sun was less to a bridegroom than a father.

[B]Yet before the floating impress of the woods could clear itself,suddenly the gladsome light leaped over hill and valley,casting amber,blue,and purple,and a tint of rich red rose,according to the scene they lit on,and the curtain flung around.Yet all alike dispelling fear and the cloven hoof of darkness,all on the wings of hope advancing,and proclaiming,"God is here!"Then life and joy sprang reassured from every crouching hollow;every flower,and bud and bird had a fluttering sense of them;and all the flashing of God's gaze merged into soft beneficence.

So,perhaps,shall break upon us that eternal morning,when crag and chasm shall be no more,neither hill and valley,nor great advantaged ocean.[C]But all things shall arise,and shine in the light of the Father's countenance,because itself is risen.

A Beneath his gaze the dew-fogs dipped,and crept to crept to the hollow pIaces;then stole away in Iine and coIumn,hoIding skirts,and cIinging subtIy at the sheItering corners where rock hung over grassIand,while the brave Iines of the hills came forth,one beyond other gIiding.

在它的逼视下,蒙蒙的雾气向下沉降,落到洼地里去,接着一丝丝,一缕缕地悄悄飘散,而在草地之上悬岩之下的那些隐秘角落里,雾气却还不愿散去,同时群山的雄姿接二连三地显现出来。

?holding,clinging现在分词作定语,表示逻辑上的主动关系。

B Yet before the fIoating impress of the woods couId clear itseIf,suddenIy the gIadsome Iight leaped over hill and valley,casting amber,bIue,and purple,and a tint of rich red rose,according to the scene they Iit on,and the curtain fIung around;yet all aIike dispelling fear and the cIoven hoof of darkness,all on the wings of hope advancing,and procIaiming,"God is here!"

然而就在树木模糊的形象即将清晰之前,突然那道令人愉悦的光芒跳过丘陵和山谷,依照他们停落的那一幕,射出了琥珀,蓝,紫以及华丽的玫瑰红,接着帘幕一甩,所有的一切驱散了恐惧和黑暗中的邪恶,所有的一切都插上希望之翼开始前进,渐渐清晰,“上帝就在这里!”

本句的骨干结构为:Yet……the gladsome light leaped……,and the curtain flung……。

C But all things shall arise,and shine in the Iight of the Father's countenance,because itseIf is risen.

但是所有的事情都出现了,在上帝的光环下,万物复苏。

in the light of在……光下,而in light of意为“按照,根据”。例如,In light of the tragic news about our chairman,we have cancelled the 4th of July celebrations.鉴于有关我们主席的不幸,我们已取消了7月4日庆祝活动。

Since the beginning of time never has there been another with my mind,my heart,my eyes,my ears,my hands,my hair,my mouth.None that came before,none that live today,and none that come tomorrow can walk and talk and move and think exactly like me.All men are my brothers yet I am different from each.I am a unique creature.

I am nature's greatest miracle.

Although I am of the animal kingdom,animal rewards alone will not satisfy me.[A]Within me burns a flame,which has been passed from generations uncounted and its heat is a constant irritation to my spirit to become better than I am,and I will.I will fan this flame of dissatisfaction and procIaim my uniqueness to the world.

I am not on this earth by chance.I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain,not to shrink to a grain of sand.Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.

I will increase my knowledge of mankind,myself,and the goods I sell,thus my sales will multiply.[B]I will practice,and improve,and polish the words I utter to sell my goods,for this is the foundation on which I will build my career and never will I forget that many have attained great wealth and success with only one sales talk,delivered with excellence.[C]Also will I seek constantly to improve my manners and graces,for they are the sugar to which all are attracted.

No beast,no plant,no wind,no rain,no rock,no lake had the same beginning as I,for I was conceived in love and brought forth with a purpose.In the past I have not considered this fact but it will henceforth shape and guide my life.

And nature knows no defeat.Eventually,she emerges victorious and so will I,and with each victory the next struggle becomes less dif flcult.

I will win,and I will become a great salesman,for I am unique.I am nature's greatest miracle.

A Within me burns a flame,which has been passed from generations uncounted and its heat is a constant irritation to my spirit to become better than I am,and I will.

我心中燃烧着代代相传的火焰,它激励我超越自己,我要使这团火燃得更旺,向世界宣布我的出类拔萃。

which引导非限制性定语从句。uncounted过去分词作后置定语修饰generations。

B I will practice,and improve,and poIish the words I utter to sell my goods,for this is the foundation on which I will buiId my career and never will I forget that many have attained great weaIth and success with onIy one sales taIk,deIivered with excellence.

我要字斟句酌,反复推敲推销时用的语言。因为这是成就事业的关键。我绝不忘记,许多成功的商人,其实只有一套说辞,却能使他们无往不利。

words后省略that,是定语从句;on介词后只能用which,不能用that。
