（单词翻译）
Three days ride from Winterfell, however, the farmland gave way to dense1 wood, and the kingsroad grew lonely. 然而好景不长，离开临冬城三日之后，农田退去，只见茂密深林，国王大道也越来越人迹罕至。
The flint hills rose higher and wilder with each passing mile, 丘陵则日益陡峭，
until by the fifth day they had turned into mountains, cold blue-grey giants with jagged
promontories2 and snow on their shoulders. 到了第五天，已经成了山脉，宛如肩负陈雪和陡峭岩峰的灰蓝巨人。
When the wind blew from the north, long
plumes3 of ice crystals flew from the high peaks like banners. 当北风吹起，长长的冰针像旗帜一般从高耸的峰峦间飞溅而下。
With the mountains a wall to the west, the road
veered4 north by northeast through the wood, 山在西方，路往东北，蜿蜒穿过树林。
a forest of oak and
evergreen5 and black brier that seemed older and darker than any Tyrion had ever seen. 班扬·史塔克称这座满是橡树、常青树和黑荆棘，看起来比提利昂所见过任何林子都要古老的森林为"狼林"，
“The wolfswood,” Benjen
Stark6 called it, and indeed their nights came alive with the howls of distant packs,and some not so distant. 每到夜晚，森林里也确实传来远方狼群此起彼落的嚎叫，有时离他们还不甚远。
Jon Snow’s albino direwolf
pricked7 up his ears at the nightly howling, but never raised his own voice in reply. 雪诺的白子冰原狼听到便会竖起耳朵，却从不应和。
There was something very unsettling about that animal, Tyrion thought. 提利昂总觉得那只东西有种令人极端不安的感觉。
There were eight in the party by then, not counting the wolf. 扣除小狼不算，他们一行八人。
Tyrion traveled with two of his own men, as befit a Lannister. 首先提利昂依照兰尼斯特家的排场，带了两个随从。
Benjen Stark had only his
bastard8 nephew and some fresh mounts for the Night’s Watch, 班扬·史塔克则只带着他的私生子侄儿，还有守夜人部队的一些牲口。
but at the edge of the wolfswood they stayed a night behind the wooden walls of a forest holdfast, 但当他们在狼林边缘一栋木造庄园过夜时，
and there joined up with another of the black brothers, one Yoren. 又有一位叫尤伦的黑衣弟兄加入他们。
Yoren was stooped and
sinister9, his features hidden behind a beard as black as his clothing, 这个尤伦驼着背，模样颇为阴狠，五官都躲在他那跟制服一般黑的胡子后面，
but he seemed as tough as an old root and as hard as stone. With him were a pair of
ragged10 peasant boys from the Fingers. 但不难看出他是条汉子。他带了两个来自五指半岛，衣着破烂的农家子弟。
“Rapers,” Yoren said with a cold look at his charges. Tyrion understood. "强奸犯。"尤伦冷冷地看着他们说。提利昂顿时领悟，
Life on the Wall was said to be hard, but no doubt it was preferable to castration. 长城上的日子虽然艰苦，但总比阉刑好得多。
