A Little Boy Lost
一個(gè)小男孩的迷失
'Nought loves another as itself,
沒有人愛別人像愛他自己，
Nor venerates another so,
也不會(huì)尊敬別人像對自己那樣，
Nor is it possible to thought
一個(gè)思想不可能去理解
A greater than itself to know.
另一個(gè)比它本身更偉大的思想；
'And, father, how can I love you
天父啊，我怎么能對你，
Or any of my brothers more?
或?qū)θ魏挝业男值軔鄣酶睿?/div>
I love you like the little bird
我愛你只能像那只小鳥兒，
That picks up crumbs around the door.'
在門邊上把面包屑啄個(gè)不停。
The Priest sat by and heard the child;
坐在一旁的牧師聽到孩子的話，
In trembling zeal he seized his hair,
激動(dòng)得直抖，抓住他的頭發(fā)：
And led him by his little coat,
他拉著他的小衣裳、把他帶走；
And all admired his priestly care.
牧師的這份操心可讓人人夸。
And standing on the altar high,
高高地站在圣壇上，他開口說：
'Lo, what a fiend is here!' said he:
瞧，這兒是個(gè)什么樣的惡魔！
'One who sets reason up for judge
他竟敢批評我們最神圣的教義，
Of our most holy mystery.'
妄加推論全是一派胡說。
The weeping child could not be heard,
孩子的哭泣誰也聽不見，
The weeping parents wept in vain:
哭泣的父母白白地哭泣：
They stripped him to his little shirt,
他們剝光他只剩一件小襯衫，
And bound him in an iron chain,
用一條鐵鏈把他緊緊鎖起。
And burned him in a holy place
便把他在神圣的場所燒死，
Where many had been burned before;
以前那里也燒死過不少人：
The weeping parents wept in vain.
哭泣的父母白白地哭泣，
Are such things done on Albion's shore?
這類事情是在不列顛海岸發(fā)生。
