Some hands now jumped into a boat alongside, and pushed a little off from the ship.

这时,有些人跳进了傍在船边的小艇,把它撑离了大船一点儿。
Ha! ha! cried Daggoo, all at once, from his now quiet, swinging perch overhead; and looking further off from the side, we saw an arm thrust upright from the blue waves; a sight strange to see, as an arm thrust forth from the grass over a grave.
哈!哈!这时,大个儿竟在他上边那摇来晃去的栖息处,出人不意地打破沉寂,突然叫了起来;我们从船边向远处望去,看到在苍苍的浪涛中,有一只笔直耸起的臂膀,这真是一个看看都希奇的景致,好象有一只手臂从墓顶的草丛里伸了出来。
Both! both!—it is both!-cried Daggoo again with a joyful shout; and soon after, Queequeg was seen boldly striking out with one hand, and with the other clutching the long hair of the Indian. Drawn into the waiting boat, they were quickly brought to the deck; but Tashtego was long in coming to, and Queequeg did not look very brisk.
两个!两个!——咳,是两个呀!大个儿又满腔高兴地高声叫嚷起来;不一会,就看到魁魁格勇猛地甩出一只手,另一只手抓着那个印第安人的长发。人们把他们俩拉进了那只等在旁边的小艇后,很快把他们拖上甲板。塔斯蒂哥可不是一下子就苏醒过来,魁魁格也显得并不很活泼。
Now, how had this noble rescue been accomplished? Why, diving after the slowly descending head, Queequeg with his keen sword had made side lunges near its bottom, so as to scuttle a large hole there; then dropping his sword, had thrust his long arm far inwards and upwards, and so hauled out our poor Tash by the head. He averred, that upon first thrusting in for him, a leg was presented; but well knowing that that was not as it ought to be, and might occasion great trouble;—he had thrust back the leg, and by a dexterous heave and toss, had wrought a somerset upon the Indian; so that with the next trial, he came forth in the good old way— head foremost. As for the great head itself, that was doing as well as could be expected.
那么,这个高尚的营救工作是怎样完成的呢?原来魁魁格一泅进水里,就紧追那只在慢慢下沉的大头,用他那支利剑打斜戳着靠近大头下边的部位,以便开出一个大洞来;接着,他丢了剑,用他那只长胳膊直探到里面上上下下的角落里去,就这样抓住我们可怜的塔斯蒂哥的脑袋,把他拉了出来。他说,他起先把手探进去找那个印第安人时,只摸到一条腿,可是,他心里很明白,光拉这条腿是不顶事的,也许反会增加困难——他便把那条腿推回去,巧妙地把那身体拉起一翻,教那印第安人翻了个筋斗,所以,再一动手,那个印第安人就按照那个百试不爽的古老的方法——头朝前,出来了。至于那只大鲸头,本来已经给挤得差不多,就听它去了。
