And what dost thou want of Captain Ahab? It's allright enough; thou art shipped.

你找他干吗?我们不是谈好了吗?

Yes, but I should like to see him.

是的，我们谈好了。可我还是想见见他。

But I don't think thou wilt be able to at present.

见见他，说起来容易，可要见到他太难了。

I don't know exactly what's the matter with him; buthe keeps close inside the house; a sort of sick, andyet he don't look so. In fact, he ain't sick; but no, heisn't well either.

船一靠岸，他就回了家，足不出户，我也见不着他了。也许他病了吧，也许没有，不过，可以肯定的是，他身体不太好。

Any how, young man, he won't always see me, so I don't suppose he will thee.

年轻人,他不总是找到我我,所以我不认为他会找上你。

He's a queer man, Captain Ahab—so some think—but a good one. Oh, thou'lt like him wellenough; no fear, no fear. He's a grand, ungodly, god-like man, Captain Ahab; doesn't speakmuch; but, when he does speak, then you may well listen.

有人说他是个怪人，也许吧，可他还是个好人!你不用怕，你一定会喜欢上他的。他是个伟大的人;他不敬神却像一尊神;他轻易不开口，可一开口就够你受的。你要完全服从于他!

Mark ye, be forewarned; Ahab's above the common; Ahab's been in colleges, as well as 'mongthe cannibals; been used to deeper wonders than the waves; fixed his fiery lance in mightier,stranger foes than whales.

亚哈绝不是凡夫俗子，他上过大学，也到过吃人生番聚居的蛮荒之地，他在海上战斗，用鱼枪对付过比大鲸鱼更可怕的家伙!

His lance! aye, the keenest and the surest that out of all our isle!

说到他的鱼枪，那可是他的骄傲!他有百发百中的神功!
