　　I would I had been there. 如果我当时在场，那该多好。

　　It would have much amazed you. 您会惊悚万分的。

　　Very like, very like. Stay'd it long? 确实，差不多如此。那魂灵盘桓多久？

　　While one with moderate haste might tell a hundred. 估计从一数到一百，大体的平均速度吧。

　　Marcellus and Bernardo say: Longer, longer. 马塞勒斯和勃那多说：还要再长点，再长点。

　　Horatio says: Not when I saw't. 霍瑞修说：我看见的时候，应该这样。

　　Hamlet says: His beard was grizzled,—no? 哈姆雷特说：那魂灵胡须花白还是黑色？

　　It was, as I have seen it in his life, A sable¹ silver'd. 我当时所见，与国王生前一样，黑色胡须中夹杂少许白色。

　　I will watch to-night; Perchance 't will walk again. I warrant it will. 我今晚也去守夜，或许那魂灵还会再来。我相信，它会出来的。

　　If it assume my noble father's person, I'll speak to it, though hell itself should gape² And bid me hold my peace. 倘若那魂灵以我尊贵的父王形象出现，我要与它说话，哪怕地狱裂开，撒旦令我噤言。

　　I pray you all, If you have hitherto conceal'd this sight, Let it be tenable in your silence still; 如果你们尚未将你们所见告知他人，不妨依然保持缄默，我会感念你们。

　　And whatsoever³ else shall hap⁴ to-night, Give it an understanding, but no tongue: 无论今晚情况如何，谨记在心，万不可逞口舌之强，

　　I will requite⁵ your loves. So, fare you well: Upon the platform, 'twixt eleven and twelve, I'll visit you. 你们的忠诚会有回报。好了，再见。今晚十一点到十二点之间，我会登临平台一查究竟。
