Started from his slumbers, Ahab, face to face, saw the Parsee; and hooped round by the gloom of the night they seemed the last men in a flooded world. "I have dreamed it again," said he.

亚哈从睡梦里惊醒过来，跟那个祆教徒面面相觑；在那朦胧笼罩的夜空中，他们俩象是大洪水留下来的仅有两个人。"我又梦到了它，"他说。

Of the hearses? Have I not said, old man, that neither hearse nor coffin can be thine?

梦到了灵车嘛？你这老人家，我不是跟你说过，灵车也好，棺材也好，都没有你的份儿吗？

And who are hearsed that die on the sea?

哪个死在海上的，还有灵车？

But I said, old man, that ere thou couldst die on this voyage, two hearses must verily be seen by thee on the sea; the first not made by mortal hands; and the visible wood of the last one must be grown in America.

不过，我说，老人家，你如果死在这趟航程上，那么死前一定真会让你见到海上有两只灵车；头一只可不是活人做出来的，另外一只却准是用出产在美国的肉眼看得到的木头做的。

Aye, aye! a strange sight that, Parsee! — a hearse and its plumes floating over the ocean with the waves for the pall-bearers. Ha! Such a sight we shall not soon see.

嗨，嗨！这倒是个奇观，老朋友：一只扎着羽毛的灵车漂洋过海，海浪做扶棺人。哈！这样的景致我们倒不是马上就看得到咧。

Believe it or not, thou canst not die till it be seen, old man.

信不信由你，你一定要看到这东西以后才会死，老人家。

And what was that saying about thyself?

那么你自己呢？

Though it come to the last, I shall still go before thee thy pilot.

不过，到头来，我还要走在你前头，做你的引港人呢。

And when thou art so gone before — if that ever befall — then ere I can follow, thou must still appear to me, to pilot me still? — Was it not so? Well, then, did I believe all ye say, oh my pilot! I have here two pledges that I shall yet slay Moby Dick and survive it.

既然你要先走了——如果是真的话——那么，在我跟着你走之前，你还一定要到我这边来，还要来领我去嘛？——是不是这样？唔，那么，我就算相信你的话吧，我的领港人呵！可是，我还得发两个誓，不是我杀倒莫比－迪克，就是它杀倒我。
