But as soon as the first glimpse of sun entered the window, up he got, with stiff and grating joints, but with a cheerful look; limped towards me where I lay;
陽光透過窗欞，射進了屋里。魁魁格動了！他掙扎著站起來，骨頭節(jié)嘎吧嘎吧一個勁兒地響，他拐著腿走到床邊，一臉的喜悅。
pressed his forehead again against mine; and said his Ramadan was over.
低下頭，用他的額貼了貼我的額，告訴我他的齋戒已經(jīng)完畢。
Now, as I before hinted, I have no objection to any person's religion, be it what it may, so long as that person does not kill or insult any other person,
我的宗教觀念是寬容的，我不反對別人有自己的信仰，前提是那個人也不因為自己的信仰而迫害甚至殺戮有別的信仰的人。
because that other person don't believe it also. But when a man's religion becomes really frantic; when it is a positive torment to him;
現(xiàn)在看來還得加上一條，這個異教徒的信仰不能是瘋瘋癲癲的異常行為，
and, in fine, makes this earth of ours an uncomfortable inn to lodge in; then I think it high time to take that individual aside and argue the point with him.
以至于凡看到這種信仰儀式的人，不得不承受與那信仰人一樣的身體的折磨。

我這樣開了頭，然后從宗教的起源講到當代的宗教流派，歸納起來，反復(fù)要向他說明的就是，
during which time I labored to show Queequeg that all these Lents, Ramadans, and prolonged ham-squattings in cold,
我告訴他，他在別的方面都很出色，只是在這件事上又成了不可救藥的野人，實在讓我痛心！
cheerless rooms were stark nonsense; bad for the health; useless for the soul; opposed, in short, to the obvious laws of Hygiene and common sense.
這種坐在冰涼的屋子里的打坐是無比愚蠢的，它違反自然規(guī)律，有礙身體健康！
