Nor will it at all detract from him, dramatically regarded, if either by birth or other circumstances, he have what seems a half wilful overruling morbidness at the bottom of his nature.

他身上有与大自然相谐的宁和与恬美,也有自然斗士的桀骜不驯。

For all men tragically great are made so through a certain morbidness.

他是悲剧中的伟人,支配别人成了他人格的一种病态表现。

Be sure of this, O young ambition, all mortal greatness is but disease.

啊,年轻人,你们可要牢记啊,人类的伟大是常与人类的病态相伴相生的,你们可要警惕!

But, as yet we have not to do with such an one, but with quite another; and still a man, who, if indeed peculiar, it only results again from another phase of the Quaker, modified by individual circumstances.

比勒达船长与法勒船长一样,是个退了休的捕鲸者;

Like Captain Peleg, Captain Bildad was a well-to-do, retired whaleman.

与法勒船长不一样的是,他有处变不惊、遇事不乱的品格。

But unlike Captain Peleg—who cared not a rush for what are called serious things, and indeed deemed those self-same serious things the veriest of all trifles—Captain Bildad had not only been originally educated according to the strictest sect of Nantucket Quakerism, but all his subsequent ocean life, and the sight of many unclad, lovely island creatures, round the Horn—all that had not moved this native born Quaker one single jot, had not so much as altered one angle of his vest.

他在南塔开特受过最严格的桂克教派的训练,他在大洋大海中进行过无数次航行,他到过合恩角,见过一丝不挂的土著们田园味儿十足的劳作。 他反对人类自身的互相残杀,却可以穿上紧身衣,挥舞标枪,让大鲸鱼流出一大桶一大桶的血来。
