LESSON 55 Meddlesome2 Matty 第五十五课 淘气的玛蒂
Oh, how one ugly trick has spoiled 噢！令人讨厌的恶作剧
The sweetest and the best! 把最甜美，最美好的东西都给糟蹋了！
Matilda, though a pleasant child, 玛蒂尔达，虽然是个可人的孩子，
Which, like a cloud before the skies, 就像天空的云朵，
Hid all her better qualities. 遮掩了她良好的品质。
Sometimes she'd lift the teapot lid, 有时她会打开茶壶盖，
To peep at what was in it; 偷看里面有什么；
Or
tilt4 the kettle, if you did 她就会把水壶打翻，
But turn your back a minute. 假如你刚刚转过头去一分钟。
In vain you told her not to touch, 告诫她不要乱动是徒劳的，
Her trick of
meddling5 grew so much. 她越来越爱瞎玩儿。
Her grandmamma went out one day, 一天，她祖母外出，
And by mistake she laid 祖母不小心
Her spectacles and snuff-box gay 将眼镜和鼻烟盒
Too near the little maid; 放在玛蒂尔达旁边；
"Ah! well," thought she, "I'll try them on, “啊！好吧，”玛蒂尔达想，我要试试这些
As soon as grandmamma is gone." “祖母出去之后。”
Forthwith she placed upon her nose the glasses large and wide; 她很快戴上了又大又宽的眼镜；
And looking round, as I suppose, the snuff-box too she spied: 四处张望，我猜她是在找鼻烟盒：
"Oh, what a pretty box is this! “噢！这盒子真漂亮！
I'll open it," said little Miss. 我要打开它，”这个小女孩心想。
"I know that grandmamma would say, 'Don't
meddle1 with it, dear;' “我知道祖母会说，亲爱的，不要乱动；
But then she's far enough away, and no one else is near; 但是之后她就会找一个附近没有人的地方；
Besides, what can there be amiss in opening such a box as this?" 再说了，打开这么漂亮的一个盒子又有什么错呢？”
So thumb and finger went to work to move the stubborn lid; 所以她开始用手拧盖子；
For all at once, ah, woeful case! 一下子，很悲惨的是，
The snuff came
puffing8 in her face. 所有的鼻烟都扑到了她的脸上！
Poor eyes, and nose, and mouth, and chin, 可怜的眼睛，鼻子，嘴巴和下巴，
A
dismal9 sight presented; 她顿时变得很可怜；
And as the snuff got further in, 吸入越来越多的鼻烟，
In vain she ran about for ease— 为了缓解痛苦，她跑来跑去，但都是徒劳——
She could do nothing else but sneeze! 她不停地打喷嚏！
She dashed the spectacles away, 她把眼镜甩在一旁，
And as in twenty bits they lay. 过了一会儿，
Her grandmamma she spies. 她看见祖母回来了。
"Hey day! and what's the matter now?" “天呐！这是怎么了？”
Cried grandmamma with lifted brow. 她祖母皱起眉头尖叫起来。
Matilda, smarting with the pain,and tingling still, and sore, 痛苦不堪的玛蒂尔达不停保证说
Made many a promise to refrain from meddling evermore. 自己再也不淘气了。
And 'tis a fact, as I have heard, 这是真的，据我后来所知，
She ever since has kept her word. 她从那以后再也没有淘气过。
