Curse thee, thou quadrant!" dashing it to the deck, "no longer will I guide my earthly way by thee; the level ship's compass, and the level deadreckoning, by log and by line; these shall conduct me, and show me my place on the sea. Aye," lighting from the boat to the deck, "thus I trample on thee, thou paltry thing that feebly pointest on high; thus I split and destroy thee!"

该死的，你这象限仪；"说着，他把象限仪狠狠地往甲板上一掼，"我再也不要你领路啦；那种平面的罗盘针，那种靠测程仪和航线做出来的平面的推测航行法，这些东西将会指引我，把我在海上的地位显示出来。"他从小艇上下到甲板来，"所以我要狠狠地踩你，你这个最无法高望的下贱东西；因此，我要踩碎你，踩坏你！"

As the frantic old man thus spoke and thus trampled with his live and dead feet, a sneering triumph that seemed meant for Ahab, and a fatalistic despair that seemed meant for himself — these passed over the mute, motionless Parsee's face. Unobserved he rose and glided away; while, awestruck by the aspect of their commander, the seamen clustered together on the forecastle, till Ahab, troubledly pacing the deck, shouted out — "To the braces! Up helm! — square in!"

当这个疯狂的老人这样且说且用他那好脚、坏脚轮流踩着的时候，那个闷声不响、一动不动的祆教徒的脸上似乎刹地闪出这样的神色：一方面似乎在嘲弄亚哈的胜利，一方面又在为自己那致命的失望而哀伤。他悄悄地站了起来，溜掉了；至于那些水手都让他们的船长那副姿态给吓坏了，相率挤在船头楼里。后来，亚哈在甲板上困惑地踱来踱去，高声嚷着——"到转帆索那边去！转航，使船向风！——直驶！"他们这才纷纷下来。

In an instant the yards swung round; and as the ship half-wheeled upon her heel, her three firm-seated graceful masts erectly poised upon her long, ribbed hull, seemed as the three Horatii pirouetting on one sufficient steed.

帆桁立刻都转动了，船身半斜半旋，它那三根装得很牢的雅致的桅杆，笔直地竖在长长的以肋材加固的船壳上。三根桅杆就象是骑在骏马身上急转的荷拉第三弟兄（荷拉第三弟兄——罗马野史中荷拉第之子，在与阿耳巴、朗加城的库里亚第三弟兄作战时，三弟兄中两人阵亡，后来仅存的一人佯装逃奔，计灭库里亚第三弟兄。）。

Standing between the knight-heads, Starbuck watched the Pequod's tumultuous way, and Ahab's also, as he went lurching along the deck.

斯达巴克站在船首斜桅的支撑杆中间，望着"裴廓德号"这种激动的情况，也望着亚哈沿着甲板东歪西倒地走去的激动的样子。
