（单词翻译）

 　　He was a small, short, youngish man, sprinkled all over his face with freckles1, and wearing redundant2 yellow hair. 他身材短小，年纪很轻，满脸雀斑，长着一头丰盛的黄发。

　　A long-skirted, cabalistically-cut coat of a faded walnut3 tinge4 enveloped5 him; the overlapping6 sleeves of which were rolled up on his wrists. 他身穿一件褪了色的胡桃色的。犹太神秘哲学家式的长外衣，袖子直卷到肘端。
　　A deep, settled, fanatic7 delirium8 was in his eyes. 在他那深陷的眼睛里，显出一股呆滞的精神错乱似的神色。
　　So soon as this figure had been first descried9, Stubb had exclaimed— "That's he! that's he! 斯塔布一发现这个人物，便叫了起来——"就是他！就是他！
　　the long-togged scaramouch the Town-Ho's company told us of!" 就是'大鲸出来了号，的水手告诉我们的，那个穿着上岸衣服的胆小鬼！"
　　Stubb here alluded10 to a strange story told of the Jeroboam, and a certain man among her crew, some time previous when the Pequod spoke11 the Town-Ho. 斯塔布指的是上次碰到"大鲸出来了号"的水手时所谈起的"耶罗波安号"一个水手。
　　According to this account and what was subsequently learned, 根据这情况以及后来所知道的，
　　it seemed that the scaramouch in question had gained a wonderful ascendency over almost everybody in the Jeroboam. 这个不相识的胆小鬼，看来差不多对"耶罗波安号"的全体船员具有一种奇特的权威。
　　His story was this: 他的故事是这样：
　　He had originally been nurtured12 among the crazy society of Neskyeuna Shakers, where he had been a great prophet; 他是在狂妄的奈斯古威那震教派团体里熏陶长大的，在那里，他本来就是个大预言家。
　　in their cracked, secret meetings having several times descended13 from heaven by the way of a trapdoor, 在他们那些精神失常的秘密集会中，他有好几次从一扇活板门里跑了下来，
　　announcing the speedy opening of the seventh vial, which he carried in his vest-pocket; 却声称是由天上下来的，立刻就要打开七碗。
　　but, which, instead of containing gunpowder14, was supposed to be charged with laudanum. 据说，这些碗藏的并不是火药，而是装着鸦片剂。
