"Kill it, kill it, kill it …" The Savage went on shouting.
“殺死肉欲，殺死肉欲，殺死肉欲……”野蠻人繼續喊叫。
Then suddenly somebody started singing "Orgy-porgy" and, in a moment, they had all caught up the refrain and, singing, had begun to dance.
這時有人開始唱起了“歡快呀淋漓”。頃刻之間大家都唱起了那句復句，唱著唱著又跳起舞來。
Orgy-porgy, round and round and round, beating one another in six-eight time.
歡快呀淋漓，一圈一圈地跳著，以六八拍子彼此拍打著。
Orgy-porgy …It was after midnight when the last of the helicopters took its flight.
歡快呀淋漓……最后的直升機飛走時已經過了半夜。野蠻人躺在石南叢里睡著了。
Stupefied by soma, and exhausted by a long-drawn frenzy of sensuality, the Savage lay sleeping in the heather.
唆麻使他迷醉，漫長而瘋狂的肉欲放縱使他筋疲力盡。
The sun was already high when he awoke. He lay for a moment,
他醒來時已經太陽高照。他躺了一會兒，
blinking in owlish incomprehension at the light; then suddenly remembered–everything.
像貓頭鷹對著光一樣迷迷糊糊地眨起了眼睛；然后突然醒悟過來——他明白了一切。
"Oh, my God, my God!" He covered his eyes with his hand.
“啊，上帝，上帝！”他用手捂住了臉。
That evening the swarm of helicopters that came buzzing across the Hog's Back was a dark cloud ten kilometres long.
那天晚上一窩蜂越過野豬背來的直升機嗡嗡嗡飛成了十公里長的一片烏云。
The description of last night's orgy of atonement had been in all the papers.
頭天晚上的贖罪狂歡晚會的描寫登上了所有的報紙。
"Savage!" called the first arrivals, as they alighted from their machine. "Mr. Savage!" There was no answer.
“野蠻人！”最先到達的人一下飛機就高叫?！耙靶U人先生！”沒有回答。
The door of the lighthouse was ajar. They pushed it open and walked into a shuttered twilight.
燈塔的門半掩著。他們推開門，走進百葉窗關成的昏暗。
Through an archway on the further side of the room they could see the bottom of the staircase that led up to the higher floors.
通過屋子對面一道拱門他們可以看到通向上面的樓梯的底。
Just under the crown of the arch dangled a pair of feet.
一雙腳在門拱的正下方晃動著。
Mr. Savage!
野蠻人先生！
Slowly, very slowly, like two unhurried compass needles, the feet turned towards the right;
緩慢地，非常緩慢地，像慢條斯理的圓規的腳，那兩條腿向右邊轉了過來，
north, north-east, east, south-east, south, south-south-west; then paused,and, after a few seconds, turned as unhurriedly back towards the left.
向北、東北。東、東南、南。西南轉了過去，停住，懸了一會兒，又同樣緩慢地向左邊轉了回去。
South-south-west, south, south-east east. …
西南、南、東南、東……
