All our arguing with him would not avail; let him be, I say:
愿上天保佑，保佑基督徒和異教徒們吧，
and Heaven have mercy on us all—Presbyterians and Pagans alike—for we are all somehow dreadfully cracked about the head, and sadly need mending.
因為大家都還不知是怎么回事就已碰得頭破血流了。
Towards evening, when I felt assured that all his performances and rituals must be over, I went up to his room and knocked at the door; but no answer.
終于到了日暮時分，我相信他的儀式已經結束了，于是走上樓去敲門，沒有動靜；
I tried to open it, but it was fastened inside. Queequeg, said I softly through the key-hole:all silent.
推了推，門反鎖著。
I say, Queequeg! why don't you speak? It's I—Ishmael. But all remained still as before.
魁魁格！我沖著鑰匙眼兒喊，還是沒反應。
I began to grow alarmed. I had allowed him such abundant time; I thought he might have had an apoplectic fit.
還是沒有一點動靜。 我有點慌了。是不是中風了？
I looked through the key-hole; but the door opening into an odd corner of the room, the key-hole prospect was but a crooked and sinister one.
我趴在鑰匙眼兒上往里看，
I could only see part of the foot-board of the bed and a line of the wall, but nothing more.
只能看到房間的一角兒，沒什么異樣。
