They heard the Howler go off in the Entrance Hall — Neville's grandmother's voice,
他們聽見這封會吼叫的信在前廳說起話來——納威祖母的聲音，
magically magnified to a hundred times its usual volume, shrieking about how he had brought shame on the whole family.
比通常的音量放大了一百倍，她尖聲譴責他給整個家庭帶來了恥辱。
Harry was too busy feeling sorry for Neville to notice immediately that he had a letter, too.
哈利忙于替納威感到遺憾，卻不曾注意到自己也有一封信。
Hedwig got his attention by nipping him sharply on the wrist. 'Ouch! Oh — thanks, Hedwig ...'
海德薇在哈利手腕上狠啄了一口引起了他的注意。“哎喲！哦……謝謝，海德薇……”
Harry tore open the envelope while Hedwig helped herself to some of Neville's cornflakes. The note inside said:
哈利撕開信封，這時海德薇不待邀請就吃了些納威的玉米片。信封里的便條寫道：
Dear Harry and Ron, How about having tea with me this evening round six?
親愛的哈利和羅恩：今晚六點左右和我一起喝茶好嗎？
I'll come and collect you from the castle. WAIT FOR ME IN THE ENTRANCE HALL, YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED OUT ON YOUR OWN. Cheers, Hagrid
我會到城堡來接你們的，在大廳等我，你們是不可以自己出城堡的。海格
'He probably wants to hear all about Black!' said Ron.
“他很可能想聽有關布萊克的所有事情呢！”羅恩說。
So at six o'clock that afternoon, Harry and Ron left Gryffindor Tower, passed the security trolls at a run, and headed down to the Entrance Hall.
那天晚上六點，哈利和羅恩離開格蘭芬多院的塔樓，跑著通過了那些保安侏儒，直奔前廳。
Hagrid was already waiting for them.
海格已經在那里等他們了。
'All right, Hagrid!' said Ron. 'S'pose you want to hear about Saturday night, do you?'
“好呀，海格！”羅恩說，“我想你是想聽聽星期六夜里的事，對不對？”
'I've already heard all abou' it,' said Hagrid, opening the front doors and leading them outside.
“我已經都聽過了。”海格說著打開大門，領他們出了城堡。
'Oh,' said Ron, looking slightly put out.
“哦。”羅恩說，有一點垂頭喪氣。
The first thing they saw on entering Hagrid's cabin was Buckbeak, who was stretched out on top of Hagrid's patchwork quilt,
他們走進海格的小屋之后，首先看見的東西是巴克比克，它躺在海格的補丁床單上，
his enormous wings folded tight to his body, enjoying a large plate of dead ferrets.
巨大的雙翼緊緊地折在身體兩旁，正在享受一盤死雪貂。
Averting his eyes from this unpleasant sight,
哈利有意不去看這令人不快的景象，
Harry saw a gigantic, hairy brown suit and a very horrible yellow and orange tie hanging from the top of Hagrid's wardrobe door.
他看到海格的衣柜門上掛著一套大得不得了的毛茸茸的棕色西服和一條黃色與橘黃色相間的難看得可怕的領帶。
