There was a roar of laughter; the Boggart paused, confused, and Professor Lupin shouted, 'Parvati! Forward!'
全班轟然大笑。這個博格特停了一下，不知所措。盧平教授大聲喊道：“帕瓦蒂，上前！”
Parvati walked forward, her face set. Snape rounded on her.
帕瓦蒂向前走去，臉板著。斯內普繞著她走了一圈。
There was another crack, and where he had stood was a blood-stained, bandaged mummy;
又有一聲爆裂聲，斯內普站過的地方現在是一個用繃帶包裹著、血跡斑斑的木乃伊，
its sightless face was turned to Parvati and it began to walk towards her, very slowly, dragging its feet, its stiff arms rising.
它那雙沒有視力的眼睛轉向帕瓦蒂，開始向她走來，很慢很慢，拖著腳，僵硬的雙臂舉了起來。
'Riddikulus!' cried Parvati.
“滑稽滑稽！”帕瓦蒂大叫。
A bandage unravelled at the mummy's feet; it became entangled, fell face forwards and its head rolled off.
木乃伊雙腳上的繃帶解開了，它被散開的繃帶弄得磕磕絆絆的，臉向前跌倒在地，它的腦袋滾下來了。
'Seamus!' roared Professor Lupin. Seamus darted past Parvati.
“西莫！”盧平教授叫道。西莫急忙越過帕瓦蒂上前。
Crack! Where the mummy had been was a woman with floor-length black hair and a skeletal, green-tinged face — a banshee.
啪！木乃伊待過的地方現在是一個婦女，黑發一直拖到地上，一張臉只有骨架，還綠陰陰的——一個女鬼。
She opened her mouth wide, and an unearthly sound filled the room, a long, wailing shriek which made the hair on Harry's head stand on end.
她大張著嘴。一種非人間的聲音充滿整個房間，一種漫長凄厲的叫聲使哈利毛骨悚然。
'Riddikulus!' shouted Seamus.
“滑稽滑稽！”西莫嚷道。
The banshee made a rasping noise and clutched her throat; her voice was gone.
女鬼發出一種撕裂的聲音，抓住自己的喉嚨，她的聲音就沒有了。
Crack! The banshee turned into a rat, which chased its tail in a circle,
啪！女鬼變成了一只耗子，轉著圈子找自己的尾巴，
then — crack! — became a rattlesnake, which slithered and writhed before — crack! — becoming a single, bloody eyeball.
然后——啪！變成一條響尾蛇，蜿蜒地滑行并且扭曲著——然后——啪！它又變成一只血淋淋的眼球。
