When, at last, he walked into Dorothy's room and thanked her for rescuing him,
最后，他跑到多蘿茜跟前，感謝她的幫助，
he was so pleased that he wept tears of joy, and Dorothy had to wipe every tear carefully from his face with her apron,
快活得流著喜悅的眼淚，多蘿茜用她的罩袍，細心地拭去他的臉上每一滴眼淚，
so his joints would not be rusted.
免得他的關節發銹。
At the same time her own tears fell thick and fast at the joy of meeting her old friend again,
同時，她也因為又會見了她的老朋友而激動，自己也流了眼淚，
and these tears did not need to be wiped away.
而這些眼淚并不需要抹去。
As for the Lion, he wiped his eyes so often with the tip of his tail that it became quite wet,
至于獅子呢，它總是用它尾巴的一簇尖端，揩拭它一雙眼睛，這簇毛也變得很濕了，
and he was obliged to go out into the courtyard and hold it in the sun till it dried.
它就跪到外面院子里去，曬著太陽，直到曬得干燥。
"If we only had the Scarecrow with us again," said the Tin Woodman, when Dorothy had finished telling him everything that had happened, "I should be quite happy."
多蘿茜對他講述了在這城堡里遭遇的每一件事，鐵皮人就說：“假使稻草人在這里的話，我一定更加快活。”
"We must try to find him," said the girl.
多蘿茜說：“我們一定要找到他。”
So she called the Winkies to help her,
因此她再一次請來溫基人，
and they walked all that day and part of the next until they came to the tall tree in the branches of which the Winged Monkeys had tossed the Scarecrow's clothes.
他們又走了一天的路，才找到了飛猴們把稻草人的衣裳，拋在高樹枝上的那個地方。
It was a very tall tree, and the trunk was so smooth that no one could climb it;
那是一棵非常高大的樹，樹干卻很光滑，因此人們都無法爬上去；
but the Woodman said at once, "I'll chop it down, and then we can get the Scarecrow's clothes."
但是鐵皮人立即說：“我立刻把樹砍倒，我們就能拿到稻草人的衣裳了。”
Now while the tinsmiths had been at work mending the Woodman himself,
在那些鐵皮匠，為鐵皮人作修復工作的時候，
another the Winkies, who was a goldsmith, had made an axe-handle of solid gold and fitted it to the Woodman's axe,
另外一些溫基人，他們是金匠，日夜趕做了一個純金的斧柄，緊緊地套在鐵皮人的斧頭上，
instead of the old broken handle. Others polished the blade until all the rust was removed and it glistened like burnished silver.
代替那破舊了的柄。還有一些人細心地揩擦著斧口，把所有的銹都擦去，使它像磨光了的銀器一樣亮。
