堂吉诃德|Don Quixote

Part 2 第11章|Part 2 Chapter 9

属类： 双语小说 【分类】世界名著 -[作者: 塞万提斯] 阅读：[44692]
《堂吉诃德》是一部幽默诙谐、滑稽可笑、充满了奇思妙想的长篇文学巨著。此书主要描写了一个有趣、可敬、可悲、喜欢自欺欺人的没落贵族堂吉诃德，他痴狂地迷恋古代骑士小说，以至于放弃家业，用破甲驽马装扮成古代骑士的样子，再雇佣农民桑乔作侍从，三次出征周游全国，去创建所谓的扶弱锄强的骑士业绩。他们在征险的生涯中闹出了许多笑话，到处碰壁受辱，堂吉诃德多次被打成重伤，有一次还被当成疯子关在笼子里遣送回乡。最后，他因征战不利郁郁寡欢而与世长辞，临终前他那一番貌似悔悟的话语让人匪夷所思又哭笑不得。

唐吉诃德一边赶路，一边还在想魔法师竟把他的杜尔西内亚夫人变成丑陋农妇的恶作剧，可是他又想不出什么办法来恢复杜尔西内亚原来的模样。想着想着出了神，他不知不觉松开了罗西南多的缰绳。罗西南多感觉到自由了，便走走停停，不时地停下来啃点路边茂盛的青草。桑乔叫唐吉诃德，唐吉诃德才醒过神来。桑乔对他说：

1
-

“大人，牲口从不烦恼，只有人烦恼。不过，人如果烦恼过度，也就成牲口了。您忍着点儿，打起精神，拿起罗西南多的缰绳，振奋起来，表现出游侠骑士的抖擞精神来吧。这算什么？这有什么了不起的？咱们是生活在现实中，还是生活在幻想中？让魔鬼把世界上所有的杜尔西内亚都带走吧，一个游侠骑士的健康比世界上所有的魔法和变化都重要。”

2
-

“住嘴，桑乔。”唐吉诃德有气无力地说道，“我让你住嘴，不许你污蔑那位着了魔法的夫人。她遭受不幸全都是由于我。

3
-

是那些坏蛋对我的嫉妒造成了她的不幸。”

4
-

“要我说，”桑乔说，“想想她的过去，看看她的现在，有谁能不伤心落泪呢？”

5
-

“你完全可以这样说，桑乔。”唐吉诃德说，“你已经看到了她完美的外貌。魔法并不能迷惑你的视线，掩盖她的美貌。它只能迷惑我，迷惑我的视线，然后它就失去了它的魔力。即使是这样，桑乔，只有一件事让我惦记着，那就是你形容她的美貌时形容得不恰当。例如，假使我没记错的话，你说她的两只眼睛像明珠。只有鱼眼睛像明珠，而不是夫人的眼睛。我觉得杜尔西内亚的眼睛应该像两只祖母绿宝石，另有两只天边弧线般的眉毛。你应该把明珠这个词从她眼睛那儿拿出来，放到她的牙齿那儿去。肯定是你搞错了，桑乔，错把牙齿当成了眼睛。”

6
-

“这完全可能，”桑乔说，“正如她的丑陋面目迷惑了您的眼睛一样，她的美貌也照花了我的眼睛。不过，咱们还是祈求上帝保佑吧，上帝对这苦难尘世上应该发生的事情无所不知。在这个罪恶的世界上，几乎无处不混杂着丑恶、欺骗和卑鄙行径。有一件事最让我担心，我的大人，那就是您打败了某个巨人或骑士后，命令他们去拜见美丽的杜尔西内亚。而这个可怜的巨人，或这个可怜又可悲的骑士，该到哪儿去找到她呢？我仿佛能看到他们在托博索到处寻找杜尔西内亚，可即使在大街上碰到她，他们也认不出来！”

7
-

“桑乔，”唐吉诃德说，“也许魔法不会剥夺那些战败后前去拜见杜尔西内亚的巨人和骑士认出她的能力。我要打败一两个巨人，把他们派去，看看他们是否能认出杜尔西内亚来，然后，命令他们向我报告他们所遇到的情况。”

8
-

“我觉得您说得对，大人，”桑乔说，“用这个方法，咱们就可以弄清楚真相了，也就是说，如果只有您认不出她的本来面目，那么您就比她更为不幸。不过，只要杜尔西内亚夫人身体健康，精神愉快，那么咱们尽可以放心，继续征咱们的险，过些时候就会好的。时间是这些病以及其他比这更严重的病的最好医生。”

9
-

唐吉诃德正要说话，忽然从路上横出一架木板大车，车上有一些形状极其奇怪的人，而且赶着骡子的车夫竟是个丑恶的魔鬼。这辆敞篷车没有围栏。首先映入唐吉诃德眼帘的是一个面如死神的怪物，旁边是一个戴着两只巨型彩色翅膀的天使。她的一侧是一位头顶金制皇冠的皇帝。死神脚边是人们称为丘比特的神。他的眼睛并未蒙着，还带着弓、箭和箭囊。还有一个除了没戴面盔和顶盔以外，真可以说是全副武装的骑士，他的头上只有一顶插满五颜六色羽毛的帽子。这些服装不同而且形态各异的怪物的突然出现使唐吉诃德不免感到有些惊慌，桑乔也从心里感到害怕。不过，后来唐吉诃德又高兴了，他觉得这又是一次新的征险机会。这样一想，他立刻摆出不惧任何危险的架势，挡在车前，大声喝问：

10
-

“车夫，魔鬼，或者不管你是谁，趁早告诉我，你是什么人，到哪儿去，还有车上拉的是什么人！”

11
-

车夫不慌不忙地停下车，说道：

12
-

“大人，我们是安古洛·埃尔马洛剧团的演员。今天是圣体节的第八天，上午我们在那个小山丘后面的一个地方演了一部劝世短剧①《死亡会议》，下午还得到前面那个地方去演出。因为比较近，我们想免去脱衣穿衣之劳，所以就干脆穿着演出服。那个小伙子演死神；那个女人是剧团领班的夫人，演女王；另外一个人演士兵；那边那个演皇帝；我演魔鬼。我是剧团的重要人物之一，因为我在剧团里经常扮演主要角色。如果您还想了解其他什么情况，就问我好了，我都可以准确地告诉您。我是魔鬼，什么都瞒不住我。”

13
-

“我以骑士的名义发誓，”唐吉诃德说，“刚才我看到这辆车是如此样子，还以为是遇到了什么巨险呢。现在我要说，凡事不能只看外观，要亲手摸一摸才知虚实。愿上帝保佑好人，去演你们的戏吧，如果有什么需要我效劳的尽管吩咐，我十分愿意帮忙。我从小就喜欢戏剧，年轻时总是追着剧团到处跑。”

14
-

①一种根据《圣经》故事编的剧目。

15
-

他们正说着话，剧团的一个小丑打扮的人恰巧走过来。他身上带着许多铃铛，手里的一根棍子上还拴着三个吹鼓了的牛膀胱。他来到唐吉诃德面前，挥舞着手里的棍子，把牛膀胱使劲往地上摔，一边还跳着，使身上的铃铛叮当乱响。这下可把罗西南多吓坏了，立刻沿着原野拼命奔跑起来，唐吉诃德使劲勒着它嘴上的缰绳，也不能让它停下来。桑乔怕主人从马上摔下来，连忙从驴背上跳下，跑过去救主人。可是等他赶到时，唐吉诃德已经被摔到地上了。罗西南多也同主人一起摔倒了。每次罗西南多一发狂都是落得这种下场。

16
-

桑乔刚刚离开驴去救唐吉诃德，那个拿着牛膀胱的小丑就跳到驴背上，而且用牛膀胱拍打驴。用牛膀胱拍打并不痛，可那声音和恐惧却使得驴沿着原野向剧团下午演戏的地方飞奔而去。桑乔见驴跑了，主人又摔到地上，不知先顾哪一头好。不过他毕竟是个好侍从，对主人的忠诚战胜了对驴的感情，尽管他每一次看到牛膀胱在空中举起又落到驴屁股上的时候，都难过得要命。他宁愿那牛膀胱打在自己的眼珠上，也不愿让驴尾巴上哪怕是最细小的毛受到损伤。他又气又急地来到唐吉诃德身旁，见主人摔得够呛，忙扶他骑上罗西南多，然后说道：

17
-

“大人，魔鬼带走了我的驴。”

18
-

“什么魔鬼？”唐吉诃德问。

19
-

“就是那个拿牛膀胱的魔鬼。”桑乔说。

20
-

“他即使把驴藏到地狱最深处，我也要把驴找回来。”唐吉诃德说，“跟我来，桑乔，那大车走不快，我要用他们的骡子抵偿你损失的驴。”

21
-

“已经没有必要了，大人。”桑乔说，“您先消消气，我看见那个人好像已经把驴放了，驴又按原路回来了。”

22
-

果然如此。原来那个魔鬼同唐吉诃德和罗西南多是一样的下场，跟他骑的驴一起摔倒了。于是，魔鬼步行到前面的村庄去了，驴也回到了主人身边。

23
-

“即使这样，”唐吉诃德说，“我也得从那车上找个人，让他替那魔鬼接受我的惩罚，就是皇帝来也饶不了他。”

24
-

“您可别这么想，”桑乔说，“听我的劝告吧，千万别去碰那些滑稽演员，他们都很受宠。我曾看见一个滑稽演员因为杀死两个人被抓起来，可是后来又放了，什么钱也没花。您该知道，他们是给大家带来欢乐的人，所以大家都偏向他们，保护他们，帮助他们，尊敬他们。特别是那些皇家剧团和得到正式批准的剧团①，所有人，或者大部分人，都生活得很富裕。”

25
-

①17世纪时，为限制喜剧剧团的发展，仅批准少数几家剧团演戏。但后来这项规定并没有认真执行。

26
-

“虽然如此，”唐吉诃德说，“即使你再夸他，即使大家都护着他，我也饶不了那个魔鬼演员。”

27
-

说完，唐吉诃德向大车走去，大声说道：

28
-

“站住，等一等，你们这些逗乐的人，我要让你们知道该怎样对待游侠骑士侍从的坐骑。”

29
-

唐吉诃德的声音很高，车上的人都听到了，也都听明白了。他们明白了唐吉诃德的用意，死神就立刻从车上跳下来，皇帝、魔鬼车夫和天使也跟着跳下来，连女王和丘比特也没有留在车上。大家拿起石头，排成一排，准备用碎石迎接唐吉诃德的进攻。唐吉诃德见他们已经摆出如此壮观的阵势，并且高举着手臂准备将石子狠狠地掷过来，便勒住了罗西南多的缰绳，思索该如何在向他们进攻时减少自己受到的威胁。正在这时，桑乔来了。他见唐吉诃德想对那排列有序的阵势发起攻击，便对唐吉诃德说道：

30
-

“您若是这么做，那就真是疯了。您想想，我的大人，对于如此猛烈的雨点般的石子，世界上还没有任何可以用来防御的手段，除非是躲进铜钟里。而且您还应该考虑到，一个人进攻一支包括死神在内，有皇帝参加战斗，而且善恶天使都为之助威的军队，并不能算是勇敢，那只能算作鲁莽。如果这样还不能让您罢休，那么您应该注意到，那些人当中虽然有国王、君主、皇帝，却没有一个是游侠骑士。”

31
-

“到现在，桑乔，”唐吉诃德说，“你才让我改变了我本来已不可动摇的决心。我已多次说过，我不能够也不应该向非受封骑士进攻。桑乔，你如果想为你的驴报仇，现在正是时候。我可以在这儿为你呐喊助威。”

32
-

“没必要向任何人报仇，大人。”桑乔说，“报仇并不是善良的基督徒做的事，而且我还要和我的驴讲好，报仇不报仇得听我的，而我主张在老天赐予我们的日子里过得太平无事。”

33
-

“既然你这样决定，”唐吉诃德说，“善良的桑乔，聪明的桑乔，基督徒桑乔，真诚的桑乔，咱们就不理这帮妖魔鬼怪，去寻求更大更有价值的惊险吧。我认为在这个世界上还会有很多神奇的惊险。”

34
-

说完，唐吉诃德掉转辔头，桑乔也骑上了他的驴。死神和那些人也回到了自己的车上，继续赶路。死神之车的可怕遭遇由于桑乔对主人的善意劝阻而得到了顺利解决。第二天，唐吉诃德又碰到了一个痴情的游侠骑士，其情节同这次一样令人惊奇。

35

’Twas at the very midnight hour — more or less — when Don Quixote and Sancho quitted the wood and entered El Toboso. The town was in deep silence, for all the inhabitants were asleep, and stretched on the broad of their backs, as the saying is. The night was darkish, though Sancho would have been glad had it been quite dark, so as to find in the darkness an excuse for his blundering. All over the place nothing was to be heard except the barking of dogs, which deafened the ears of Don Quixote and troubled the heart of Sancho. Now and then an ass brayed, pigs grunted, cats mewed, and the various noises they made seemed louder in the silence of the night; all which the enamoured knight took to be of evil omen; nevertheless he said to Sancho, “Sancho, my son, lead on to the palace of Dulcinea, it may be that we shall find her awake.”

“Body of the sun! what palace am I to lead to,” said Sancho, “when what I saw her highness in was only a very little house?”

“Most likely she had then withdrawn into some small apartment of her palace,” said Don Quixote, “to amuse herself with damsels, as great ladies and princesses are accustomed to do.”

“Senor,” said Sancho, “if your worship will have it in spite of me that the house of my lady Dulcinea is a palace, is this an hour, think you, to find the door open; and will it be right for us to go knocking till they hear us and open the door; making a disturbance and confusion all through the household? Are we going, do you fancy, to the house of our wenches, like gallants who come and knock and go in at any hour, however late it may be?”

“Let us first of all find out the palace for certain,” replied Don Quixote, “and then I will tell thee, Sancho, what we had best do; but look, Sancho, for either I see badly, or that dark mass that one sees from here should be Dulcinea’s palace.”

“Then let your worship lead the way,” said Sancho, “perhaps it may be so; though I see it with my eyes and touch it with my hands, I’ll believe it as much as I believe it is daylight now.”

Don Quixote took the lead, and having gone a matter of two hundred paces he came upon the mass that produced the shade, and found it was a great tower, and then he perceived that the building in question was no palace, but the chief church of the town, and said he, “It’s the church we have lit upon, Sancho.”

“So I see,” said Sancho, “and God grant we may not light upon our graves; it is no good sign to find oneself wandering in a graveyard at this time of night; and that, after my telling your worship, if I don’t mistake, that the house of this lady will be in an alley without an outlet.”

“The curse of God on thee for a blockhead!” said Don Quixote; “where hast thou ever heard of castles and royal palaces being built in alleys without an outlet?”

“Senor,” replied Sancho, “every country has a way of its own; perhaps here in El Toboso it is the way to build palaces and grand buildings in alleys; so I entreat your worship to let me search about among these streets or alleys before me, and perhaps, in some corner or other, I may stumble on this palace — and I wish I saw the dogs eating it for leading us such a dance.”

“I’ll hold my tongue,” said Sancho, “but how am I to take it patiently when your worship wants me, with only once seeing the house of our mistress, to know always, and find it in the middle of the night, when your worship can’t find it, who must have seen it thousands of times?”

“Thou wilt drive me to desperation, Sancho,” said Don Quixote. “Look here, heretic, have I not told thee a thousand times that I have never once in my life seen the peerless Dulcinea or crossed the threshold of her palace, and that I am enamoured solely by hearsay and by the great reputation she bears for beauty and discretion?”

“Don’t mind that, senor,” said Sancho; “I must tell you that my seeing her and the answer I brought you back were by hearsay too, for I can no more tell who the lady Dulcinea is than I can hit the sky.”

“Sancho, Sancho,” said Don Quixote, “there are times for jests and times when jests are out of place; if I tell thee that I have neither seen nor spoken to the lady of my heart, it is no reason why thou shouldst say thou hast not spoken to her or seen her, when the contrary is the case, as thou well knowest.”

While the two were engaged in this conversation, they perceived some one with a pair of mules approaching the spot where they stood, and from the noise the plough made, as it dragged along the ground, they guessed him to be some labourer who had got up before daybreak to go to his work, and so it proved to be. He came along singing the ballad that says —

“I do,” said Sancho, “but what has Roncesvalles chase to do with what we have in hand? He might just as well be singing the ballad of Calainos, for any good or ill that can come to us in our business.”

By this time the labourer had come up, and Don Quixote asked him, “Can you tell me, worthy friend, and God speed you, whereabouts here is the palace of the peerless princess Dona Dulcinea del Toboso?”

“Senor,” replied the lad, “I am a stranger, and I have been only a few days in the town, doing farm work for a rich farmer. In that house opposite there live the curate of the village and the sacristan, and both or either of them will be able to give your worship some account of this lady princess, for they have a list of all the people of El Toboso; though it is my belief there is not a princess living in the whole of it; many ladies there are, of quality, and in her own house each of them may be a princess.”

Sancho, seeing his master downcast and somewhat dissatisfied, said to him, “Senor, daylight will be here before long, and it will not do for us to let the sun find us in the street; it will be better for us to quit the city, and for your worship to hide in some forest in the neighbourhood, and I will come back in the daytime, and I won’t leave a nook or corner of the whole village that I won’t search for the house, castle, or palace, of my lady, and it will be hard luck for me if I don’t find it; and as soon as I have found it I will speak to her grace, and tell her where and how your worship is waiting for her to arrange some plan for you to see her without any damage to her honour and reputation.”

“Sancho,” said Don Quixote, “thou hast delivered a thousand sentences condensed in the compass of a few words; I thank thee for the advice thou hast given me, and take it most gladly. Come, my son, let us go look for some place where I may hide, while thou dost return, as thou sayest, to seek, and speak with my lady, from whose discretion and courtesy I look for favours more than miraculous.”

Sancho was in a fever to get his master out of the town, lest he should discover the falsehood of the reply he had brought to him in the Sierra Morena on behalf of Dulcinea; so he hastened their departure, which they took at once, and two miles out of the village they found a forest or thicket wherein Don Quixote ensconced himself, while Sancho returned to the city to speak to Dulcinea, in which embassy things befell him which demand fresh attention and a new chapter.
