（单词翻译）

Aye! and all splintered to pieces, Stubb! — d'ye see it. — But even with a broken bone, old Ahab is untouched; and I account no living bone of mine one jot¹ more me, than this dead one that's lost. Nor white whale, nor man, nor fiend, can so much as graze old Ahab in his own proper and inaccessible² being. Can any lead touch yonder floor, any mast scrape yonder roof? — Aloft there! which way?

哼！全都崩得粉碎啦，斯塔布！——你可看到——。不过，就是骨头折坏了，亚哈老头还是毫不动心；我对我身上的真骨头，就跟对我那只失掉了的坏腿一样，一点也不放在心上。白鲸也好，人类也好，魔鬼也好，论起伤痕来，都比不过亚哈老头自己这个难以接近的身体。子弹碰得到海底，桅杆戳得穿天空么？喂，上边的人！向哪方游啦？

Dead to leeward³, sir.

停在下风啦，先生。

Up helm, then; pile on the sail again, ship keepers! down the rest of the spare boats and rig them — Mr. Starbuck away, and muster⁴ the boat's crews.

转航当风，那么；再加帆呀，看船的人！把所有的备用小艇都放下来，装配起来——斯达巴克先生，你去，去把小艇的水手都集合起来。

Let me first help thee towards the bulwarks⁵, sir.

让我先扶你到舷墙那边去吧，先生。

Oh, oh, oh! how this splinter gores⁶ me now! Accursed fate! that the unconquerable captain in the soul should have such a craven mate!

啊，啊，啊！这会儿，这只残腿可多使我难过啊！倒霉的命运，灵魂上是不可征服的船长，竟会有这样一个胆小鬼的大副！

Sir?

先生？

My body, man, not thee. Give me something for a cane⁷ — there, that shivered lance will do. Muster the men. Surely I have not seen him yet. By heaven it cannot be! — missing? — quick! call them all.

朋友，是我的身体，不是你的。给我拿点什么东西来当拐棍使——喏，那根烂捕鲸枪就行。把人召集起来。噫，我可真的还没有看到他。但愿老天保佑，不会有这回事！不见了嘛？——赶快！把大家都叫来！

The old man's hinted thought was true. Upon mustering⁸ the company, the Parsee was not there.
