||1:Mr Leonhardt’s life-work was to persuade the world how beautiful the harpsichord was, and how the harpsichord repertoire should be played.||2:When he first fell in love with it, in the shape of the fairly bad instrument his parents bought for their house at Graveland in the Netherlands, he recognised it as the king of keyboards.||3:Organs were noble characters, and he played church organ for years.||4:Virginals were pleasing; he wrote a book on Flemish examples.||5:But fortepianos were awful, the sound muffling all over the place when the hammer hit the keys, which put him off playing his beloved Mozart; and modern grands were unspeakable.||6:None had that direct pluck of plectrum on string for which he loved the harpsichord—though that mechanism was also fearsomely exacting, even “diabolical ”, and that was why he did not smile as he played.

||1:莱昂哈特先生的毕生心血都花在让世界了解羽管键琴是多么美好的一种乐器，以及应该怎样弹奏羽管键琴曲目上面。||2:当初，他父母替位于荷兰格雷弗兰村的房子买了一台音质很差的羽管键琴，从那时起他就爱上了这种乐器，认识到它是键盘乐器之王。||3:风琴具有高贵的特色，他曾在教堂弹奏多年的风琴。||4:小键琴则悦耳动听，他曾著过一本讨论弗兰芒小键琴的书。||5:但是古典钢琴糟透了，当琴槌敲出音调时到处都是压抑的声音，让他在弹奏他钟爱的莫扎特时大受打击，至于现代钢琴，简直糟得无法形容。||6:所有这些乐器都没有琴拨在琴弦上的直接拨动，而这正是他热爱羽管键琴的原因。不过同时要掌握这种发声机制也费劲得令人害怕，简直有如“恶魔”一般，这也是为什么他在演奏时从不微笑的原因。

However, Merriam Webster’s Online Dictionary says the original idea is older than that. In 1678 Thomas Jones wrote, “To err, is human; to recover, is Angelical; to persevere is Diabolical .” But this saying wasn’t as memorable and, therefore, it just didn’t stick.

然而，韦氏在线词典表示，最早的理念比这更为久远。1678年托马斯·琼斯（Thomas Jones）写道：“犯错乃人之常情，知错就改的是天使，冥顽不灵的是恶魔。”但是这种说法没那么记忆深刻，因此没有流传下来。
