《终成眷属》是莎士比亚创作于第二时期的作品，这部作品写美丽而有才干的女主人公如何费尽心机去争取一个出身高贵、狂妄肤浅的纫袴子弟的爱情。在这里，弥漫在早期喜剧中的欢乐气氛和乐观情绪已经消失，相反地出现了背信弃义、尔虞我诈的罪恶阴影。

SCENE I. Rousillon. The COUNT's palace.

Enter BERTRAM, the COUNTESS of Rousillon, HELENA, and LAFEU, all in black
COUNTESS
In delivering my son from me, I bury a second husband.
BERTRAM
And I in going, madam, weep o'er my father's death
anew: but I must attend his majesty's command, to
whom I am now in ward, evermore in subjection.
LAFEU
You shall find of the king a husband, madam; you,
sir, a father: he that so generally is at all times
good must of necessity hold his virtue to you; whose
worthiness would stir it up where it wanted rather
than lack it where there is such abundance.
COUNTESS
What hope is there of his majesty's amendment?
LAFEU
He hath abandoned his physicians, madam; under whose
practises he hath persecuted time with hope, and
finds no other advantage in the process but only the
losing of hope by time.
COUNTESS
This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that
'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was
almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so
far, would have made nature immortal, and death
should have play for lack of work. Would, for the
king's sake, he were living! I think it would be
the death of the king's disease.
LAFEU
How called you the man you speak of, madam?
COUNTESS
He was famous, sir, in his profession, and it was
his great right to be so: Gerard de Narbon.
LAFEU
He was excellent indeed, madam: the king very
lately spoke of him admiringly and mourningly: he
was skilful enough to have lived still, if knowledge
could be set up against mortality.
BERTRAM
What is it, my good lord, the king languishes of?
LAFEU
A fistula, my lord.
BERTRAM
I heard not of it before.
LAFEU
I would it were not notorious. Was this gentlewoman
the daughter of Gerard de Narbon?
COUNTESS
His sole child, my lord, and bequeathed to my
overlooking. I have those hopes of her good that
her education promises; her dispositions she
inherits, which makes fair gifts fairer; for where
an unclean mind carries virtuous qualities, there
commendations go with pity; they are virtues and
traitors too; in her they are the better for their
simpleness; she derives her honesty and achieves her goodness.
LAFEU
Your commendations, madam, get from her tears.
COUNTESS
'Tis the best brine a maiden can season her praise
in. The remembrance of her father never approaches
her heart but the tyranny of her sorrows takes all
livelihood from her cheek. No more of this, Helena;
go to, no more; lest it be rather thought you affect
a sorrow than have it.
HELENA
I do affect a sorrow indeed, but I have it too.
LAFEU
Moderate lamentation is the right of the dead,
excessive grief the enemy to the living.
COUNTESS
If the living be enemy to the grief, the excess
makes it soon mortal.
BERTRAM
Madam, I desire your holy wishes.
LAFEU
How understand we that?
COUNTESS
Be thou blest, Bertram, and succeed thy father
In manners, as in shape! thy blood and virtue
Contend for empire in thee, and thy goodness
Share with thy birthright! Love all, trust a few,
Do wrong to none: be able for thine enemy
Rather in power than use, and keep thy friend
Under thy own life's key: be cheque'd for silence,
But never tax'd for speech. What heaven more will,
That thee may furnish and my prayers pluck down,
Fall on thy head! Farewell, my lord;
'Tis an unseason'd courtier; good my lord,
Advise him.
LAFEU
He cannot want the best
That shall attend his love.
COUNTESS
Heaven bless him! Farewell, Bertram.
Exit

BERTRAM
[To HELENA] The best wishes that can be forged in
your thoughts be servants to you! Be comfortable
to my mother, your mistress, and make much of her.
LAFEU
Farewell, pretty lady: you must hold the credit of
your father.
Exeunt BERTRAM and LAFEU

HELENA
O, were that all! I think not on my father;
And these great tears grace his remembrance more
Than those I shed for him. What was he like?
I have forgot him: my imagination
Carries no favour in't but Bertram's.
I am undone: there is no living, none,
If Bertram be away. 'Twere all one
That I should love a bright particular star
And think to wed it, he is so above me:
In his bright radiance and collateral light
Must I be comforted, not in his sphere.
The ambition in my love thus plagues itself:
The hind that would be mated by the lion
Must die for love. 'Twas pretty, though plague,
To see him every hour; to sit and draw
His arched brows, his hawking eye, his curls,
In our heart's table; heart too capable
Of every line and trick of his sweet favour:
But now he's gone, and my idolatrous fancy
Must sanctify his reliques. Who comes here?
Enter PAROLLES

Aside

One that goes with him: I love him for his sake;
And yet I know him a notorious liar,
Think him a great way fool, solely a coward;
Yet these fixed evils sit so fit in him,
That they take place, when virtue's steely bones
Look bleak i' the cold wind: withal, full oft we see
Cold wisdom waiting on superfluous folly.
PAROLLES
Save you, fair queen!
HELENA
And you, monarch!
PAROLLES
No.
HELENA
And no.
PAROLLES
Are you meditating on virginity?
HELENA
Ay. You have some stain of soldier in you: let me
ask you a question. Man is enemy to virginity; how
may we barricado it against him?
PAROLLES
Keep him out.
HELENA
But he assails; and our virginity, though valiant,
in the defence yet is weak: unfold to us some
warlike resistance.
PAROLLES
There is none: man, sitting down before you, will
undermine you and blow you up.
HELENA
Bless our poor virginity from underminers and
blowers up! Is there no military policy, how
virgins might blow up men?
PAROLLES
Virginity being blown down, man will quicklier be
blown up: marry, in blowing him down again, with
the breach yourselves made, you lose your city. It
is not politic in the commonwealth of nature to
preserve virginity. Loss of virginity is rational
increase and there was never virgin got till
virginity was first lost. That you were made of is
metal to make virgins. Virginity by being once lost
may be ten times found; by being ever kept, it is
ever lost: 'tis too cold a companion; away with 't!
HELENA
I will stand for 't a little, though therefore I die a virgin.
PAROLLES
There's little can be said in 't; 'tis against the
rule of nature. To speak on the part of virginity,
is to accuse your mothers; which is most infallible
disobedience. He that hangs himself is a virgin:
virginity murders itself and should be buried in
highways out of all sanctified limit, as a desperate
offendress against nature. Virginity breeds mites,
much like a cheese; consumes itself to the very
paring, and so dies with feeding his own stomach.
Besides, virginity is peevish, proud, idle, made of
self-love, which is the most inhibited sin in the
canon. Keep it not; you cannot choose but loose
by't: out with 't! within ten year it will make
itself ten, which is a goodly increase; and the
principal itself not much the worse: away with 't!
HELENA
How might one do, sir, to lose it to her own liking?
PAROLLES
Let me see: marry, ill, to like him that ne'er it
likes. 'Tis a commodity will lose the gloss with
lying; the longer kept, the less worth: off with 't
while 'tis vendible; answer the time of request.
Virginity, like an old courtier, wears her cap out
of fashion: richly suited, but unsuitable: just
like the brooch and the tooth-pick, which wear not
now. Your date is better in your pie and your
porridge than in your cheek; and your virginity,
your old virginity, is like one of our French
withered pears, it looks ill, it eats drily; marry,
'tis a withered pear; it was formerly better;
marry, yet 'tis a withered pear: will you anything with it?
HELENA
Not my virginity yet [ ]
There shall your master have a thousand loves,
A mother and a mistress and a friend,
A phoenix, captain and an enemy,
A guide, a goddess, and a sovereign,
A counsellor, a traitress, and a dear;
His humble ambition, proud humility,
His jarring concord, and his discord dulcet,
His faith, his sweet disaster; with a world
Of pretty, fond, adoptious christendoms,
That blinking Cupid gossips. Now shall he--
I know not what he shall. God send him well!
The court's a learning place, and he is one--
PAROLLES
What one, i' faith?
HELENA
That I wish well. 'Tis pity--
PAROLLES
What's pity?
HELENA
That wishing well had not a body in't,
Which might be felt; that we, the poorer born,
Whose baser stars do shut us up in wishes,
Might with effects of them follow our friends,
And show what we alone must think, which never
Return us thanks.

Monsieur Parolles, my lord calls for you.
Exit

PAROLLES
Little Helen, farewell; if I can remember thee, I
will think of thee at court.
HELENA
Monsieur Parolles, you were born under a charitable star.
PAROLLES
Under Mars, I.
HELENA
I especially think, under Mars.
PAROLLES
Why under Mars?
HELENA
The wars have so kept you under that you must needs
be born under Mars.
PAROLLES
When he was predominant.
HELENA
When he was retrograde, I think, rather.
PAROLLES
Why think you so?
HELENA
You go so much backward when you fight.
PAROLLES
That's for advantage.
HELENA
So is running away, when fear proposes the safety;
but the composition that your valour and fear makes
in you is a virtue of a good wing, and I like the wear well.
PAROLLES
I am so full of businesses, I cannot answer thee
acutely. I will return perfect courtier; in the
which, my instruction shall serve to naturalize
thee, so thou wilt be capable of a courtier's
counsel and understand what advice shall thrust upon
thee; else thou diest in thine unthankfulness, and
thine ignorance makes thee away: farewell. When
thou hast leisure, say thy prayers; when thou hast
none, remember thy friends; get thee a good husband,
and use him as he uses thee; so, farewell.
Exit

HELENA
Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie,
Which we ascribe to heaven: the fated sky
Gives us free scope, only doth backward pull
Our slow designs when we ourselves are dull.
What power is it which mounts my love so high,
That makes me see, and cannot feed mine eye?
The mightiest space in fortune nature brings
To join like likes and kiss like native things.
Impossible be strange attempts to those
That weigh their pains in sense and do suppose
What hath been cannot be: who ever strove
So show her merit, that did miss her love?
The king's disease--my project may deceive me,
But my intents are fix'd and will not leave me.
Exit
第一幕

    第一场罗西昂。伯爵夫人府中一室

    勃特拉姆、罗西昂伯爵夫人、海丽娜、拉佛同上；均服丧。

    伯爵夫人我儿如今离我而去，无异使我重新感到先夫去世的痛苦。

    勃特拉姆母亲，我因为离开您膝下而流泪，也像是再度悲恸父亲的死亡一样。
可是儿子多蒙王上眷顾，理应尽忠效命，他的命令是必须服从的。

    拉佛夫人，王上一定会尽力照顾您，就像尊夫在世的时候一样；他对于令郎，
也一定会看作自己的儿子一样。不要说王上圣恩宽厚，德泽广被，决不会把您冷落
不顾，就凭着夫人这么贤德，无论怎样刻薄寡恩的人，也一定愿意推诚相助的。

    伯爵夫人听说王上圣体违和，不知道有没有早占勿药之望？

    拉佛夫人，他已经谢绝了一切的医生。他曾经在他们的诊治之下，耐心守候
着病魔脱体，可是药石无灵，痊愈的希望一天比一天淡薄了。

    伯爵夫人这位年轻的姑娘有一位父亲，可惜现今已经不在人世了！他不但为
人正直，而且精通医术，要是天假以年，使他能够更求深造，那么也许他真会使世
人尽得长生，死神也将无所事事了。要是他现在还活着，王上的病一定会霍然脱体
的。

    拉佛夫人，您说起的那个人叫什么名字？

    伯爵夫人大人，他在他们这一行之中，是赫赫有名的，而且的确不是滥博虚
声；他的名字是吉拉·德·拿滂。

    拉佛啊，夫人，他的确是一个好医生；王上最近还称赞过他的本领，悼惜他
死得太早。要是学问真能和死亡抗争，那么凭着他的才能，他应该至今健在的。

    勃特拉姆大人，王上害的究竟是什么病？

    拉佛他害的是瘘管症。

    勃特拉姆这病名我倒没有听见过。

    拉佛我但愿这痛对世人是永远生疏的。这位姑娘就是吉拉·德·拿滂的女儿
吗？

    伯爵夫人她是他的独生女儿，大人；他在临死的时候，托我把她照顾。她有
天赋淳厚优美的性质，并且受过良好的教育，有如锦上添花，我对她抱着极大的期
望。一个心地不纯正的人，即使有几分好处，人家在称赞他的时候，总不免带着几
分惋惜；因为那样的好处也就等于是邪恶的帮手。可是她的优点却由于天性纯朴而
越加出色，她的正直得自天禀，教育更培植了她的德性。

    拉佛夫人，您这样称赞她，使她感激涕零了。



    伯爵夫人女孩儿家听见人家称赞而流泪，是最适合她的身分的。她每次想起
她的父亲，总是自伤身世而面容惨淡。海丽娜，别伤心了，算了吧；人家看见你这
样，也许会说你是故意做作出来的。

    海丽娜我的伤心的确是做作出来的，可是我也有真正伤心的事情。

    拉佛适度的悲伤是对于死者应有的情分；过分的哀戚是摧残生命的仇敌。

    海丽娜如果人们不对悲伤屈服，过度的悲伤不久就会自己告终的。

    勃特拉姆母亲，请您祝福我。

    拉佛这话怎么讲？

    伯爵夫人祝福你，勃特拉姆，愿你不但在仪表上像你的父亲，在气概风度上
也能够克绍箕裘，愿你的出身和美德永远不相上下，愿你的操行与你高贵的血统相
称！对众人一视同仁，对少数人推心置腹，对任何人不要亏负；在能力上你应当能
和你的敌人抗衡，但不要因为争强好胜而炫耀你的才干；对于你的朋友，你应该开
诚相与；宁可被人责备你朴讷寡言，不要让人嗔怪你多言偾事。愿上天的护佑和我
的祈祷降临到你的头上！再会，大人；他是一个不懂世故的孩子，请您多多指教他。

    拉佛夫人，您放心吧，他不会缺少出自对他一片热爱的最好的忠告。

    伯爵夫人上天祝福他！再见，勃特拉姆。（下。）勃特拉姆（向海丽娜）愿
你一切如愿！好好安慰我的母亲，你的女主人，替我加意侍候她老人家。

    拉佛再见；好姑娘，愿你不要辱没了你父亲的令誉。（勃特拉姆、拉佛下。）

    海丽娜唉！要是真的只是这样倒好了。我不是想我的父亲；我这些滔滔的眼
泪，虽然好像是一片孺慕的哀忱，却不是为他而流。他的容貌怎样，我也早就忘记
了，在我的想像之中，除了勃特拉姆以外没有别人的影子。我现在一切都完了！要
是勃特拉姆离我而去，我还有什么生趣？我正像爱上了一颗灿烂的明星，痴心地希
望着有一天能够和它结合，他是这样高不可攀；我不能踰越我的名分和他亲近，只
好在他的耀目的光华下，沾取他的几分余辉，安慰安慰我的饥渴。我的爱情的野心
使我备受痛苦，希望和狮子匹配的驯鹿，必须为爱而死。每时每刻看见他，是愉快
也是苦痛；我默坐在他的旁边，在心版上深深地刻划着他的秀曲的眉毛，他的敏锐
的眼睛，他的迷人的鬈发，他那可爱的脸庞上的每一根线条，每一处微细的特点，
都会清清楚楚地摄在我的心里。可是现在他去了，我的爱慕的私衷，只好以眷怀旧
日的陈迹为满足。——谁来啦？这是一个和他同去的人；为了他的缘故我爱他，虽
然我知道他是一个出名爱造谣言的人，是一个傻子，也是一个懦夫。但是这些本性
难移的坏处，加在他身上，却十分合适，比起美德的嶒崚瘦骨受寒风摧残要合适得
多：我们不是时常见到衣不蔽体的聪明人，不得不听候浑身锦绣的愚夫使唤吗？

    帕洛上。

    帕洛您好，美貌的娘娘！

    海丽娜您好，大王！

    帕洛不敢。

    海丽娜我也不敢。

    帕洛您是不是在想着处女的贞操问题？

    海丽娜是啊。你还有几分军人的经验，让我请教你一个问题。男人是处女贞
操的仇敌，我们应当怎样实施封锁，才可以防御他？

    帕洛不要让他进来。

    海丽娜可是他会向我们进攻；我们的贞操虽然奋勇抵抗，毕竟是脆弱的。告
诉我们一些有效的防御战略吧。

    帕洛没有。男人不动声色坐在你的面前，他会在暗中埋下地雷，轰破你的贞
操的。

    海丽娜上帝保佑我们可怜的贞操不要给人这样轰破！那么难道处女们就不能
采取一种战术，把男人轰得远远的吗？

    帕洛处女的贞操轰破了以后，男人就会更快地被轰得远远的。但是，你们虽
然把男人轰倒了，自己的围墙也就有了缺口，那么城市当然就保不住啦。在自然界
中，保全处女的贞操决非得策。贞操的丧失是合理的增加，倘不先把处女的贞操破
坏，处女们从何而来？你的身体恰恰就是造成处女的材料。贞操一次丧失可以十倍
增加；永远保持，就会永远失去。这种冷冰冰的东西，你要它作什么！

    海丽娜我还想暂时保全它一下，虽然也许我会因此而以处女终老。

    帕洛那未免太说不过去了，这是违反自然界的法律的。你要是为贞操辩护，
等于诋毁你的母亲，那就是忤逆不孝。以处女终老的人，等于自己杀害了自己，这
种女人应该让她露骨道旁，不让她的尸骸进入圣地，因为她是反叛自然意志的罪人。
贞操像一块干酪一样，搁的日子长久了就会生虫霉烂，自己把自己的内脏掏空；而
且它是一种乖僻骄傲无聊的东西，重视贞操的人，无非因为自视不凡，这是教条中
所大忌的一种罪过。何必把它保持起来呢？这样作只有让你吃亏。算了吧！在一年
之内，你就可以收回双倍利息，而且你的本钱也不会怎么走了样子。放弃了它吧！

    海丽娜请问一个女人怎样才可以照她自己的意思把它失去？

    帕洛这得好好想想。有了，就是得倒行逆施，去喜欢那不喜欢贞操的人。贞
操是一注搁置过久了会失去光彩的商品；越是保存得长久，越是不值钱。趁着有销
路的时候，还是早点把它脱手了的好；时机不可失去。贞操像一个年老的廷臣，虽
然衣冠富丽，那一副不合时宜的装束却会使人瞧着发笑，就像别针和牙签似的，现
在早不时兴了。做在饼饵里和在粥里的红枣，是悦目而可口的，你颊上的红枣，却
会转瞬失去鲜润；你那陈年封固的贞操，也就像一颗干瘪的梨儿一样，样子又难看，
入口又无味，虽然它从前也是很甘美的，现在却已经干瘪了。你要它作什么呢？

    海丽娜可是我还不愿放弃我的贞操。你的主人在外面将会博得无数女子的倾
心，他会找到一个母亲，一个情人，一个朋友，一个绝世的佳人，一个司令官，一
个敌人，一个向导，一个女神，一个君王，一个顾问，一个叛徒，一个亲人；他会
找到他的卑微的野心，骄傲的谦逊，他的不和谐的和谐，悦耳的嘈音，他的信仰，
他的甜蜜的灾难，以及一大堆瞎眼的爱神编出来的可爱的、痴心的、虚伪的名字。
他现在将要——我不知道他将要什么。但愿上帝护佑他！宫廷是可以增长见识的地
方，他是一个——

    帕洛他是一个什么？

    海丽娜他是一个我愿意为他虔诚祝福的人。可惜——

    帕洛可惜什么？

    海丽娜可惜我们的愿望只是一种渺茫而感觉不到的东西，否则我们这些出身
寒贱的人，虽然命运注定我们只能在愿望中消度我们的生涯，也可以借着愿望的力
量追随我们的朋友，让他们知道我们的衷曲，而不致永远得不到一点报酬了。

    一侍童上。

    侍童帕洛先生，爵爷叫你去。（下。）

    帕洛小海伦，再会；我在宫廷里要是记得起你，我会想念你的。

    海丽娜帕洛先生，你降生的时候准是吉星照命。

    帕洛不错，我是武曲星照命。

    海丽娜我也相信你是地地道道在武曲星下面降生的。

    帕洛为什么在武曲星下面？

    海丽娜一打起仗来，你就甘拜下风，那还不是在武曲星下面降生的吗？

    帕洛我是说在武曲星居前的时候。

    海丽娜我看还是在退后的时候吧？

    帕洛为什么说退后呢？

    海丽娜交手的时候，你总是步步退后呀。

    帕洛那是为了等待时机。

    海丽娜心中害怕，想寻求安全，掉头就跑，也同样是为了等待时机；勇气和
恐惧在你身上倒是满协调的，凭你这种打扮，跑起来准能一日千里，花样也很别致。

    帕洛我事情很忙，没功夫伶牙俐齿地回答你。且等我回来，再叫你看我那副
彬彬君子的派头吧。到那时候，我的教养会对你发生作用，你会领略到一个朝廷贵
人的善意，对他大开方便之门；如若不然，你就是不知感激，只有自己遭殃，最后
一窍不通地死去。你要是有空的话，可以祈祷祈祷；要是没有空，不妨想念想念你
的朋友们。早点嫁一个好丈夫，他怎样待你，你也怎样待他。好！再见。（下。）

    海丽娜一切办法都在我们自己，虽然我们把它诿之天意；注定人类运命的上
天，给我们自由发展的机会，只有当我们自己冥顽不灵、不能利用这种机会的时候，
我们的计划才会遭遇挫折。哪一种力量激起我爱情的雄心，使我能够看见，却不能
喂饱我的视欲？尽管地位如何悬殊，惺惺相怜的人，造物总会使他们结合在一起。
只有那些斤斤计较、害怕麻烦、认为好梦已成过去的人，他们的希冀才永无实现的
可能；能够努力发挥她的本领的，怎么会在恋爱上失败？王上的病——我的计划也
许只是一种妄想，可是我的主意已决，一定要把它尝试一下。（下。）

SCENE II. Paris. The KING's palace.

Flourish of cornets. Enter the KING of France, with letters, and divers Attendants
KING
The Florentines and Senoys are by the ears;
Have fought with equal fortune and continue
A braving war.
First Lord
So 'tis reported, sir.
KING
Nay, 'tis most credible; we here received it
A certainty, vouch'd from our cousin Austria,
With caution that the Florentine will move us
For speedy aid; wherein our dearest friend
Prejudicates the business and would seem
To have us make denial.
First Lord
His love and wisdom,
Approved so to your majesty, may plead
For amplest credence.
KING
He hath arm'd our answer,
And Florence is denied before he comes:
Yet, for our gentlemen that mean to see
The Tuscan service, freely have they leave
To stand on either part.
Second Lord
It well may serve
A nursery to our gentry, who are sick
For breathing and exploit.
KING
What's he comes here?
Enter BERTRAM, LAFEU, and PAROLLES

First Lord
It is the Count Rousillon, my good lord,
Young Bertram.
KING
Youth, thou bear'st thy father's face;
Frank nature, rather curious than in haste,
Hath well composed thee. Thy father's moral parts
Mayst thou inherit too! Welcome to Paris.
BERTRAM
My thanks and duty are your majesty's.
KING
I would I had that corporal soundness now,
As when thy father and myself in friendship
First tried our soldiership! He did look far
Into the service of the time and was
Discipled of the bravest: he lasted long;
But on us both did haggish age steal on
And wore us out of act. It much repairs me
To talk of your good father. In his youth
He had the wit which I can well observe
To-day in our young lords; but they may jest
Till their own scorn return to them unnoted
Ere they can hide their levity in honour;
So like a courtier, contempt nor bitterness
Were in his pride or sharpness; if they were,
His equal had awaked them, and his honour,
Clock to itself, knew the true minute when
Exception bid him speak, and at this time
His tongue obey'd his hand: who were below him
He used as creatures of another place
And bow'd his eminent top to their low ranks,
Making them proud of his humility,
In their poor praise he humbled. Such a man
Might be a copy to these younger times;
Which, follow'd well, would demonstrate them now
But goers backward.
BERTRAM
His good remembrance, sir,
Lies richer in your thoughts than on his tomb;
So in approof lives not his epitaph
As in your royal speech.
KING
Would I were with him! He would always say--
Methinks I hear him now; his plausive words
He scatter'd not in ears, but grafted them,
To grow there and to bear,--'Let me not live,'--
This his good melancholy oft began,
On the catastrophe and heel of pastime,
When it was out,--'Let me not live,' quoth he,
'After my flame lacks oil, to be the snuff
Of younger spirits, whose apprehensive senses
All but new things disdain; whose judgments are
Mere fathers of their garments; whose constancies
Expire before their fashions.' This he wish'd;
I after him do after him wish too,
Since I nor wax nor honey can bring home,
I quickly were dissolved from my hive,
To give some labourers room.
Second Lord
You are loved, sir:
They that least lend it you shall lack you first.
KING
I fill a place, I know't. How long is't, count,
Since the physician at your father's died?
He was much famed.
BERTRAM
Some six months since, my lord.
KING
If he were living, I would try him yet.
Lend me an arm; the rest have worn me out
With several applications; nature and sickness
Debate it at their leisure. Welcome, count;
My son's no dearer.
BERTRAM
Thank your majesty.
Exeunt. Flourish
第二场巴黎。国王宫中一室

    喇叭奏花腔。法国国王持书信上，群臣及侍从等随上。

    国王弗罗棱萨人和西诺哀人相持不下，胜负互见，还在那里继续着猛烈的战
争。

    臣甲是有这样的消息，陛下。

    国王不，那是非常可靠的消息；这儿有一封从我们的友邦奥地利来的信，已
经证实了这件事，他还警告我们，说是弗罗棱萨就要向我们请求给他们迅速的援助，
照我们这位好朋友的意思，似乎很不赞同，希望我们拒绝他们的请求。

    臣甲陛下素来称道奥王的诚信明智，他的意见当然是可以充分信任的。

    国王他已经替我们决定了如何答复，虽然弗罗棱萨还没有来乞援，我已经决
定拒绝他们了。可是我们这儿要是有人愿意参加都斯加的战事，不论他们愿意站在
哪一方面，都可以自由前去。

    臣乙我们这些绅士们闲居无事，本来就感到十分苦闷，渴想到外面去干一番
事业，这次战事倒是一个好机会，可以让他们去磨练磨练。

    国王来的是什么人？

    勃特拉姆、拉佛及帕洛上。

    臣甲陛下，这是罗西昂伯爵，年轻的勃特拉姆。

    国王孩子，你的面貌很像你的父亲；造物在雕塑你形状的时候，一定是非常
用心而不是草率从事的。但愿你也秉有你父亲的德性！欢迎你到巴黎来！

    勃特拉姆感谢陛下圣恩，小臣愿效犬马之劳。

    国王想起你父亲在日，与我交称莫逆，我们两人初上战场的时候，大家都是
年轻力壮，现在要是也像那样就好了！他是个熟谙时务的干才，也是个能征惯战的
健儿；他活到很大年纪，可是我们两人都在不知不觉中变成老朽，不中用了。提起
你的父亲，使我精神为之一振。他年轻时候的那种才华，我可以从我们现在这辈贵
介少年身上同样看到，可是他们的信口讥评，往往来不及遮掩他们的轻薄，已经在
无意中自取其辱。你父亲才真是一个有大臣风度的人，在他的高傲之中没有轻蔑，
在他的严峻之中没有苛酷；只有当那些和他同等地位的人激起他的不满的时候，他
才会对他们作无情的指责；他的良知就像一具时钟，正确地知道在哪一分钟为了特
殊的理由使他不能不侃侃而言，那时他的舌头就会听从他的指挥。他把那些在他下
面的人当作不同地位的人看待，在他们卑微的身分前降尊纡贵，听了他们贫弱的谀
辞，也会谦谢不遑，使他们因他的逊让而受宠若惊。这样一个人是可以作为现在这
辈年轻人的模范的。如果他们肯认真效仿他，就会明白自己实际上是大大地后退了。

    勃特拉姆陛下不忘旧人，先父虽死犹生；任何铭刻在碑碣上的文字，都不及
陛下口中品题的确当。

    国王但愿我也和他在一起！他老是这样说——我觉得我仿佛听见他的声音，
他的动人的辞令不是随便散播在人的耳中，却是深植在人们的心头，永远存留在那
里。每当欢欣和娱乐行将告一段落的时候，他就会发出这样的感喟：“等我的火焰
把油烧干以后，让我不要继续活下去，给那些年轻的人们揶揄讥笑，他们凭着他们
的聪明，除了新奇的事物以外，什么都瞧不上眼；他们的思想都花在穿衣服上面，
而且变化得比衣服的式样更快。”他有这样的愿望；我也抱着和他同样的愿望，因
为我已经是一只无用的衰蜂，不能再把蜜、蜡带回巢中，我愿意赶快从这世上消灭，
好给其余作工的人留出一个地位。

    臣乙陛下圣德恢恢，臣民无不感戴；最不知感恩的人，将是最先悼惜您的人。

    国王我知道我不过是空占着一个地位。伯爵，你父亲家里的那个医生死了多
久了？他的名誉很不错哩。

    勃特拉姆陛下，他已经死了差不多六个月了。

    国王他要是现在还活着，我倒还要试一试他的本领。请你扶我一下。那些庸
医们给我吃这样那样的药，把我的精力完全销磨掉了，弄成这么一副不死不活的样
子。欢迎，伯爵，你就像是我自己的儿子一样。

    勃特拉姆感谢陛下。（同下；喇叭奏花腔。）

SCENE III. Rousillon. The COUNT's palace.

Enter COUNTESS, Steward, and Clown
COUNTESS
I will now hear; what say you of this gentlewoman?
Steward
Madam, the care I have had to even your content, I
wish might be found in the calendar of my past
endeavours; for then we wound our modesty and make
foul the clearness of our deservings, when of
ourselves we publish them.
COUNTESS
What does this knave here? Get you gone, sirrah:
the complaints I have heard of you I do not all
believe: 'tis my slowness that I do not; for I know
you lack not folly to commit them, and have ability
enough to make such knaveries yours.
Clown
'Tis not unknown to you, madam, I am a poor fellow.
COUNTESS
Well, sir.
Clown
No, madam, 'tis not so well that I am poor, though
many of the rich are damned: but, if I may have
your ladyship's good will to go to the world, Isbel
the woman and I will do as we may.
COUNTESS
Wilt thou needs be a beggar?
Clown
I do beg your good will in this case.
COUNTESS
In what case?
Clown
In Isbel's case and mine own. Service is no
heritage: and I think I shall never have the
blessing of God till I have issue o' my body; for
they say barnes are blessings.
COUNTESS
Tell me thy reason why thou wilt marry.
Clown
My poor body, madam, requires it: I am driven on
by the flesh; and he must needs go that the devil drives.
COUNTESS
Is this all your worship's reason?
Clown
Faith, madam, I have other holy reasons such as they
are.
COUNTESS
May the world know them?
Clown
I have been, madam, a wicked creature, as you and
all flesh and blood are; and, indeed, I do marry
that I may repent.
COUNTESS
Thy marriage, sooner than thy wickedness.
Clown
I am out o' friends, madam; and I hope to have
friends for my wife's sake.
COUNTESS
Such friends are thine enemies, knave.
Clown
You're shallow, madam, in great friends; for the
knaves come to do that for me which I am aweary of.
He that ears my land spares my team and gives me
leave to in the crop; if I be his cuckold, he's my
drudge: he that comforts my wife is the cherisher
of my flesh and blood; he that cherishes my flesh
and blood loves my flesh and blood; he that loves my
flesh and blood is my friend: ergo, he that kisses
my wife is my friend. If men could be contented to
be what they are, there were no fear in marriage;
for young Charbon the Puritan and old Poysam the
Papist, howsome'er their hearts are severed in
religion, their heads are both one; they may jowl
horns together, like any deer i' the herd.
COUNTESS
Wilt thou ever be a foul-mouthed and calumnious knave?
Clown
A prophet I, madam; and I speak the truth the next
way:
For I the ballad will repeat,
Which men full true shall find;
Your marriage comes by destiny,
Your cuckoo sings by kind.
COUNTESS
Get you gone, sir; I'll talk with you more anon.
Steward
May it please you, madam, that he bid Helen come to
you: of her I am to speak.
COUNTESS
Sirrah, tell my gentlewoman I would speak with her;
Helen, I mean.
Clown
Was this fair face the cause, quoth she,
Why the Grecians sacked Troy?
Fond done, done fond,
Was this King Priam's joy?
With that she sighed as she stood,
With that she sighed as she stood,
And gave this sentence then;
Among nine bad if one be good,
Among nine bad if one be good,
There's yet one good in ten.
COUNTESS
What, one good in ten? you corrupt the song, sirrah.
Clown
One good woman in ten, madam; which is a purifying
o' the song: would God would serve the world so all
the year! we'ld find no fault with the tithe-woman,
if I were the parson. One in ten, quoth a'! An we
might have a good woman born but one every blazing
star, or at an earthquake, 'twould mend the lottery
well: a man may draw his heart out, ere a' pluck
one.
COUNTESS
You'll be gone, sir knave, and do as I command you.
Clown
That man should be at woman's command, and yet no
hurt done! Though honesty be no puritan, yet it
will do no hurt; it will wear the surplice of
humility over the black gown of a big heart. I am
going, forsooth: the business is for Helen to come hither.
Exit

COUNTESS
Well, now.
Steward
I know, madam, you love your gentlewoman entirely.
COUNTESS
Faith, I do: her father bequeathed her to me; and
she herself, without other advantage, may lawfully
make title to as much love as she finds: there is
more owing her than is paid; and more shall be paid
her than she'll demand.
Steward
Madam, I was very late more near her than I think
she wished me: alone she was, and did communicate
to herself her own words to her own ears; she
thought, I dare vow for her, they touched not any
stranger sense. Her matter was, she loved your son:
Fortune, she said, was no goddess, that had put
such difference betwixt their two estates; Love no
god, that would not extend his might, only where
qualities were level; Dian no queen of virgins, that
would suffer her poor knight surprised, without
rescue in the first assault or ransom afterward.
This she delivered in the most bitter touch of
sorrow that e'er I heard virgin exclaim in: which I
held my duty speedily to acquaint you withal;
sithence, in the loss that may happen, it concerns
you something to know it.
COUNTESS
You have discharged this honestly; keep it to
yourself: many likelihoods informed me of this
before, which hung so tottering in the balance that
I could neither believe nor misdoubt. Pray you,
leave me: stall this in your bosom; and I thank you
for your honest care: I will speak with you further anon.
Exit Steward

Enter HELENA

Even so it was with me when I was young:
If ever we are nature's, these are ours; this thorn
Doth to our rose of youth rightly belong;
Our blood to us, this to our blood is born;
It is the show and seal of nature's truth,
Where love's strong passion is impress'd in youth:
By our remembrances of days foregone,
Such were our faults, or then we thought them none.
Her eye is sick on't: I observe her now.
HELENA
What is your pleasure, madam?
COUNTESS
You know, Helen,
I am a mother to you.
HELENA
Mine honourable mistress.
COUNTESS
Nay, a mother:
Why not a mother? When I said 'a mother,'
Methought you saw a serpent: what's in 'mother,'
That you start at it? I say, I am your mother;
And put you in the catalogue of those
That were enwombed mine: 'tis often seen
Adoption strives with nature and choice breeds
A native slip to us from foreign seeds:
You ne'er oppress'd me with a mother's groan,
Yet I express to you a mother's care:
God's mercy, maiden! does it curd thy blood
To say I am thy mother? What's the matter,
That this distemper'd messenger of wet,
The many-colour'd Iris, rounds thine eye?
Why? that you are my daughter?
HELENA
That I am not.
COUNTESS
I say, I am your mother.
HELENA
Pardon, madam;
The Count Rousillon cannot be my brother:
I am from humble, he from honour'd name;
No note upon my parents, his all noble:
My master, my dear lord he is; and I
His servant live, and will his vassal die:
He must not be my brother.
COUNTESS
Nor I your mother?
HELENA
You are my mother, madam; would you were,--
So that my lord your son were not my brother,--
Indeed my mother! or were you both our mothers,
I care no more for than I do for heaven,
So I were not his sister. Can't no other,
But, I your daughter, he must be my brother?
COUNTESS
Yes, Helen, you might be my daughter-in-law:
God shield you mean it not! daughter and mother
So strive upon your pulse. What, pale again?
My fear hath catch'd your fondness: now I see
The mystery of your loneliness, and find
Your salt tears' head: now to all sense 'tis gross
You love my son; invention is ashamed,
Against the proclamation of thy passion,
To say thou dost not: therefore tell me true;
But tell me then, 'tis so; for, look thy cheeks
Confess it, th' one to th' other; and thine eyes
See it so grossly shown in thy behaviors
That in their kind they speak it: only sin
And hellish obstinacy tie thy tongue,
That truth should be suspected. Speak, is't so?
If it be so, you have wound a goodly clew;
If it be not, forswear't: howe'er, I charge thee,
As heaven shall work in me for thine avail,
Tell me truly.
HELENA
Good madam, pardon me!
COUNTESS
Do you love my son?
HELENA
Your pardon, noble mistress!
COUNTESS
Love you my son?
HELENA
Do not you love him, madam?
COUNTESS
Go not about; my love hath in't a bond,
Whereof the world takes note: come, come, disclose
The state of your affection; for your passions
Have to the full appeach'd.
HELENA
Then, I confess,
Here on my knee, before high heaven and you,
That before you, and next unto high heaven,
I love your son.
My friends were poor, but honest; so's my love:
Be not offended; for it hurts not him
That he is loved of me: I follow him not
By any token of presumptuous suit;
Nor would I have him till I do deserve him;
Yet never know how that desert should be.
I know I love in vain, strive against hope;
Yet in this captious and intenible sieve
I still pour in the waters of my love
And lack not to lose still: thus, Indian-like,
Religious in mine error, I adore
The sun, that looks upon his worshipper,
But knows of him no more. My dearest madam,
Let not your hate encounter with my love
For loving where you do: but if yourself,
Whose aged honour cites a virtuous youth,
Did ever in so true a flame of liking
Wish chastely and love dearly, that your Dian
Was both herself and love: O, then, give pity
To her, whose state is such that cannot choose
But lend and give where she is sure to lose;
That seeks not to find that her search implies,
But riddle-like lives sweetly where she dies!
COUNTESS
Had you not lately an intent,--speak truly,--
To go to Paris?
HELENA
Madam, I had.
COUNTESS
Wherefore? tell true.
HELENA
I will tell truth; by grace itself I swear.
You know my father left me some prescriptions
Of rare and proved effects, such as his reading
And manifest experience had collected
For general sovereignty; and that he will'd me
In heedfull'st reservation to bestow them,
As notes whose faculties inclusive were
More than they were in note: amongst the rest,
There is a remedy, approved, set down,
To cure the desperate languishings whereof
The king is render'd lost.
COUNTESS
This was your motive
For Paris, was it? speak.
HELENA
My lord your son made me to think of this;
Else Paris and the medicine and the king
Had from the conversation of my thoughts
Haply been absent then.
COUNTESS
But think you, Helen,
If you should tender your supposed aid,
He would receive it? he and his physicians
Are of a mind; he, that they cannot help him,
They, that they cannot help: how shall they credit
A poor unlearned virgin, when the schools,
Embowell'd of their doctrine, have left off
The danger to itself?
HELENA
There's something in't,
More than my father's skill, which was the greatest
Of his profession, that his good receipt
Shall for my legacy be sanctified
By the luckiest stars in heaven: and, would your honour
But give me leave to try success, I'ld venture
The well-lost life of mine on his grace's cure
By such a day and hour.
COUNTESS
Dost thou believe't?
HELENA
Ay, madam, knowingly.
COUNTESS
Why, Helen, thou shalt have my leave and love,
Means and attendants and my loving greetings
To those of mine in court: I'll stay at home
And pray God's blessing into thy attempt:
Be gone to-morrow; and be sure of this,
What I can help thee to thou shalt not miss.
Exeunt

    第三场罗西昂。伯爵夫人府中一室

    伯爵夫人、管家及小丑上。

    伯爵夫人我现在要听你讲，你说这位姑娘怎样？

    管家夫人，小的过去怎样尽心竭力侍候您的情形，想来您一定是十分明白的；
因为我们要是自己宣布自己的功劳，那就太狂妄了，即使我们真的有功，人家也会
疑心我们。

    伯爵夫人这狗才站在这儿干吗？滚出去！人家说起关于你的种种坏话，我并
不完全相信，可是那也许因为我太忠厚了；照你这样蠢法，是很会去干那些勾当的，
而且你也不是没有干坏事的本领。

    小丑夫人，您知道我是一个苦人儿。

    伯爵夫人好，你怎么说？

    小丑不，夫人，我是个苦人儿，并没有什么好，虽然有许多有钱的人们都不
是好东西。可是夫人要是答应我让我到外面去成家立业，那么伊丝贝尔那个女人就
可以跟我成其好事了。

    伯爵夫人你一定要去做一个叫化子吗？

    小丑在这一件事情上，我不要您布施我别的什么，只要请求您开恩准许。

    伯爵夫人在哪一件事情上？

    小丑在伊丝贝尔跟我的事情上。做用人的不一定世世代代做用人；我想我要
是一生一世没有一个亲生的骨肉，就要永远得不到上帝的祝福，因为人家说有孩子
的人才是有福气的。

    伯爵夫人告诉我你一定要结婚的理由。

    小丑夫人，贱体有这样的需要；我因为受到肉体的驱使，不能不听从魔鬼的
指挥。

    伯爵夫人那就是尊驾的理由了吗？

    小丑不，夫人，我还有其他神圣的理由，这样的那样的。

    伯爵夫人那么可以请教一二吗？

    小丑夫人，我过去是一个坏人，正像您跟一切血肉的凡人一样；老实说吧，
我结婚是为了要痛悔前非。

    伯爵夫人你结了婚以后，第一要懊悔的不是从前的错处，而是你不该结婚。

    小丑夫人，我是个举目无亲的人；我希望娶了老婆以后，可以靠着她结识几
个朋友。

    伯爵夫人蠢才，这样的朋友是你的仇敌呢。

    小丑夫人，您还不懂得友谊的深意哩；那些家伙都是来替我做我所不耐烦做
的事的。耕耘我的田地的人，省了我牛马之劳，使我不劳而获，坐享其成；虽然他
害我做了忘八，可是我叫他替我干活儿。夫妻一体，他安慰了我的老婆，也就是看
重我；看重我，也就是爱我；爱我，也就是我的好朋友。所以吻我老婆的人，就是
我的好朋友。人们只要能够乐天安命，结了婚准不会闹什么意见。因为吃肉的少年
清教徒，和吃鱼的老年教皇党，虽然论起心来，在宗教问题上大有分歧；论起脑袋
来，却完全一式一样；他们可以用犄角相互顶撞，就跟一帮鹿似的。

    伯爵夫人你这狗嘴里永远长不出象牙来吗？

    小丑夫人，我是一个先知，我用讽谕的方式，宣扬人生的真理：

    我要重新唱那首歌曲，

列位要洗耳恭听：

    婚姻全都是命里注定，

乌龟是天性生成。

    伯爵夫人滚出去吧，混账东西；等会儿再跟你说话。

    管家夫人，请您叫他去吩咐海丽娜姑娘出来；我要跟您讲的就是关于她的事。

    伯爵夫人蠢材，去对我的侍女说，我有话对她讲——就是那海丽娜姑娘。

    小丑

    是不是为了这张俊脸，

希腊人把特洛亚攻陷？

    作的好事，作的好事，

这就是普里阿摩斯的心肝？

    她长叹一声站在那里，

    她长叹一声站在那里，

这样把道理说明：

    有九个坏的，有一个好的，

    有九个坏的，有一个好的，

总算还落下一成。①

    伯爵夫人什么，十个人里才有一个好的？你把歌词也糟蹋了，蠢货。

    小丑夫人，我指的是女人——十个女人里有一个好的，这是把歌词往好里唱。
愿上帝能一年到头保持这个比率！我要是牧师，对这样一个抽什一税的女人，决不
会有什么意见。一成，你还嫌少吗？哼，就算每出现一次扫帚星，或是发生一次地
震的时候，才有一个好女人降生，这个彩票也是抽得来的。照现在这样，你把心都
抽没有了，也不会中彩。

    伯爵夫人混账，你还不快去作我叫你作的事吗？

    小丑唉，女人反倒骑在男人身上，发号施令，认为算不了什么！当然，作好
人，就不能作清教徒，可是那也算不了什么；可以外面穿上一件必恭必敬的袈裟，
罩着底下的黑袍子，仍旧心安理得。好，这回我真走了；您的吩咐是叫海丽娜姑娘
到这儿来。（下。）

    伯爵夫人现在你说吧。

    管家夫人，我知道您是非常喜欢这位姑娘的。

    伯爵夫人不错，我很喜欢她。她的父亲在临死的时候，把她托付给我；单单
凭着她本身的好处，也就够惹人怜爱了。我欠她的债，多过于已经给她的酬报；我
将要报答她的，一定超过她自己的要求。

    管家夫人，小的最近在无意中间，看见她一个人坐在那里自言自语；我可以
代她起誓，她是以为她说的话不会给什么人听了去的。原来她爱上了我们的少爷了！
她怨恨命运，不该在他们两人之间安下了这样一道鸿沟；她嗔怪爱神，不肯运用他
的大力，使地位不同的人也有结合的机会；她说狄安娜不配做处女们的保护神，因
为她坐令纤纤弱质受到爱情的袭击甚至成为俘虏而不加援手。她用无限哀怨的语调
声诉着她的心事，小的听了之后，因恐万一有什么事情发生，故此不敢疏忽，特来
禀知夫人。

    伯爵夫人你把这事干得很好，可是千万不要声张出去。我早已猜疑到几分，
因为事无实据，不敢十分相信。现在你去吧，不要让别人知道，我很感谢你的忠心
诚实。等会儿咱们再谈吧。（管家下。）

    海丽娜上。

    伯爵夫人我在年轻时候也是这样的。我们是自然的子女，谁都有天赋的感情；
这一枚棘刺，正是青春的蔷薇上少不了的。有了我们，就有感情；有了感情，就少
不了这种事。当热烈的恋情给青春打下了烙印，这正是自然天性的标志和记号。在
我们旧日的回忆之中，我们也曾经犯过同样的过失，虽然在那时我们并不以为那有
什么不对。我现在可以清楚看见，她的眼睛里透露着因相思而憔悴的神色。

    海丽娜夫人，您有什么吩咐？

    伯爵夫人海丽娜，你知道我可以说就是你的母亲。

    海丽娜不，您是我的尊贵的女主人。

    伯爵夫人不，我是你的母亲，为什么不是呢？当我说“我是你的母亲”的时
候，我觉得你仿佛看见了一条蛇似的；为什么你听了“母亲”两个字，就要吃惊呢？
我说，我是你的母亲；我把你当作我自己的亲生骨肉一样看待。异姓的子女，有时
往往胜过自己生养的孩子；外来的种子，也一样可以长成优美的花木。你不曾使我
忍受怀胎的辛苦，我却像母亲一样关心着你。天哪，这丫头！难道我说了我是你的
母亲，你就这样惊惶失色吗？为什么你的眼边会润湿而起了一重重的虹晕？难道因
为你是我的女儿吗？

    海丽娜因为我不是您的女儿。

    伯爵夫人我说，我是你的母亲。

    海丽娜恕我，夫人，罗西昂伯爵不能做我的哥哥；我的出身这样寒贱，他的
家世这样高贵；我的父母是闾巷平民，他的都是簪缨巨族。他是我的主人，我活着
是他的婢子，到死也是他的奴才。他一定不可以做我的哥哥。

    伯爵夫人那么我也不能做你的母亲吗？

    海丽娜您是我的母亲，夫人；我也愿意您真做我的母亲，只要您的儿子不是
我的哥哥。我希望您是我的母亲也是他的母亲，只要我不是他的妹妹，那么其他一
切都没有关系。是不是我做了您的女儿以后，他必须做我的哥哥呢？

    伯爵夫人不，海伦，你可以做我的媳妇；上帝保佑你不在转着这样的念头！
难道女儿和母亲竟会这样扰乱了你的心绪？怎么，你又脸色惨白起来了？你的心事
果然被我猜中了。现在我已经明白了你的寂寞无聊的缘故，发现了你的伤心挥泪的
根源。你爱着我的儿子，这是显明的事实。你的感情既然已经完全暴露，想来你也
不好意思再编造谎话企图抵赖了。还是告诉我老实话吧；告诉我真有这样的事，因
为瞧，你两颊的红云，已经彼此互相招认了；你自己的眼睛也可以从你自己的举止
上，看出你的踧踖不安来；只有罪恶的感觉和无理的执拗使你缄口无言，不敢吐露
真情。你说，是不是真有这回事？要是真有这回事，那么这场麻烦你已经惹上了，
不然的话，你就该发誓否认。无论如何，你不要瞒住我吧，我总是会尽力帮助你的。

    海丽娜好夫人，原谅我吧！

    伯爵夫人你爱我的儿子吗？

    海丽娜请您原谅我，夫人！

    伯爵夫人你是爱我的儿子的。

    海丽娜夫人，您不也是爱他的吗？

    伯爵夫人不要绕圈子说话；我爱他是分所当然，用不到向世人讳饰；你究竟
爱他到什么程度，还是快说吧，因为你的感情早就完全泄露出来了。

    海丽娜既然如此，我就当着上天和您的面前跪下，承认我是爱着您的儿子，
并且爱他胜过您，仅次于爱上天。我的亲友虽然贫寒，都是正直的人；我的爱情也
是一样。不要因此而恼怒，因为他被我所爱，对他并无损害；我并不用僭越名分的
表示向他追求，在我不配得到他的眷爱以前，决不愿把他占有，虽然我不知道怎样
才可以配得上他。我知道我的爱是没有希望的徒劳，可是在这罗网一样千孔万眼的
筛子里，依然把我如水的深情灌注下去，永远不感到干涸。我正像印度人一样虔信
而执迷，我崇拜着太阳，它的光辉虽然也照到它的信徒的身上，却根本不知道有这
样一个人存在。我的最亲爱的夫人，不要因为我爱了您所爱的人而憎恨我，您是一
位年高德劭的人，要是在您纯洁的青春，也曾经燃起过同样真诚的情热，怀抱着无
邪的愿望和深挚的爱慕，使您同时能忠实于贞操和恋情，那么请您可怜可怜我这命
薄缘悭、自知无望、拚着在默默无闻中了此残生的人儿吧！

    伯爵夫人你最近不是想要到巴黎去吗？老实告诉我你有没有过这个意思。

    海丽娜有过，夫人。

    伯爵夫人为什么呢？

    海丽娜我不愿向夫人说谎；您知道先父在日，曾经传给我几种灵验的秘方，
是他凭着潜心研究和实际经验配合起来的，对一般病症都有卓越的效能；他嘱咐我
不要把它们轻易授人，因为它们都是世间不大知道的珍贵的方剂。在这些秘方之中，
有一种是专门医治王上现在所患一般认为无法医治的那种痼疾的。

    伯爵夫人这就是你要到巴黎去的动机吗？你说吧。

    海丽娜您的儿子使我想起了这一个念头；不然的话，什么巴黎，什么药方，
什么王上的病，都是我永远不会想到的事物。

    伯爵夫人可是海伦，你想你要是自请为王上治病，他就会接受你的帮助吗？
他跟他那班医生们已经意见归于一致，他认为他的病已经使群医束手，他们认为一
切药石都已失去效力。那些熟谙医道的大夫们都这样敬谢不敏了，他们怎么会相信
一个不学无术的少女呢？

    海丽娜我相信这药方，不仅因为我父亲的医术称得上并世无双，而且我觉得
他传给我这一份遗产，一定会带给我极大的幸运。只要夫人允许我冒险一试，我愿
意就在此日此时动身前去，拚着这一条没有什么希冀的微命，为王上治疗他的疾病。

    伯爵夫人你相信你会成功吗？

    海丽娜是的，夫人，我相信我会成功。

    伯爵夫人那么很好，海伦，你不但可以得到我的准许，也可以得到我的爱，
我愿意为你置备行装，派仆从护送你前去，还要请你传言致候我那些在宫廷中的熟
人。我在家里愿意为你祈祷上帝，保佑你达到目的。你明天就去吧，你尽管放心，
只要是我能够助你一臂之力的事情，我一定会作的。（同下。）

SCENE I. Paris. The KING's palace.

Flourish of cornets. Enter the KING, attended with divers young Lords taking leave for the Florentine war; BERTRAM, and PAROLLES
KING
Farewell, young lords; these warlike principles
Do not throw from you: and you, my lords, farewell:
Share the advice betwixt you; if both gain, all
The gift doth stretch itself as 'tis received,
And is enough for both.
First Lord
'Tis our hope, sir,
After well enter'd soldiers, to return
And find your grace in health.
KING
No, no, it cannot be; and yet my heart
Will not confess he owes the malady
That doth my life besiege. Farewell, young lords;
Whether I live or die, be you the sons
Of worthy Frenchmen: let higher Italy,--
Those bated that inherit but the fall
Of the last monarchy,--see that you come
Not to woo honour, but to wed it; when
The bravest questant shrinks, find what you seek,
That fame may cry you loud: I say, farewell.
Second Lord
Health, at your bidding, serve your majesty!
KING
Those girls of Italy, take heed of them:
They say, our French lack language to deny,
If they demand: beware of being captives,
Before you serve.
Both
Our hearts receive your warnings.
KING
Farewell. Come hither to me.
Exit, attended

First Lord
O, my sweet lord, that you will stay behind us!
PAROLLES
'Tis not his fault, the spark.
Second Lord
O, 'tis brave wars!
PAROLLES
Most admirable: I have seen those wars.
BERTRAM
I am commanded here, and kept a coil with
'Too young' and 'the next year' and ''tis too early.'
PAROLLES
An thy mind stand to't, boy, steal away bravely.
BERTRAM
I shall stay here the forehorse to a smock,
Creaking my shoes on the plain masonry,
Till honour be bought up and no sword worn
But one to dance with! By heaven, I'll steal away.
First Lord
There's honour in the theft.
PAROLLES
Commit it, count.
Second Lord
I am your accessary; and so, farewell.
BERTRAM
I grow to you, and our parting is a tortured body.
First Lord
Farewell, captain.
Second Lord
Sweet Monsieur Parolles!
PAROLLES
Noble heroes, my sword and yours are kin. Good
sparks and lustrous, a word, good metals: you shall
find in the regiment of the Spinii one Captain
Spurio, with his cicatrice, an emblem of war, here
on his sinister cheek; it was this very sword
entrenched it: say to him, I live; and observe his
reports for me.
First Lord
We shall, noble captain.
Exeunt Lords

PAROLLES
Mars dote on you for his novices! what will ye do?
BERTRAM
Stay: the king.
Re-enter KING. BERTRAM and PAROLLES retire

PAROLLES
[To BERTRAM] Use a more spacious ceremony to the
noble lords; you have restrained yourself within the
list of too cold an adieu: be more expressive to
them: for they wear themselves in the cap of the
time, there do muster true gait, eat, speak, and
move under the influence of the most received star;
and though the devil lead the measure, such are to
be followed: after them, and take a more dilated farewell.
BERTRAM
And I will do so.
PAROLLES
Worthy fellows; and like to prove most sinewy sword-men.
Exeunt BERTRAM and PAROLLES

Enter LAFEU

LAFEU
[Kneeling] Pardon, my lord, for me and for my tidings.
KING
I'll fee thee to stand up.
LAFEU
Then here's a man stands, that has brought his pardon.
I would you had kneel'd, my lord, to ask me mercy,
And that at my bidding you could so stand up.
KING
I would I had; so I had broke thy pate,
And ask'd thee mercy for't.
LAFEU
Good faith, across: but, my good lord 'tis thus;
Will you be cured of your infirmity?
KING
No.
LAFEU
O, will you eat no grapes, my royal fox?
Yes, but you will my noble grapes, an if
My royal fox could reach them: I have seen a medicine
That's able to breathe life into a stone,
Quicken a rock, and make you dance canary
With spritely fire and motion; whose simple touch,
Is powerful to araise King Pepin, nay,
To give great Charlemain a pen in's hand,
And write to her a love-line.
KING
What 'her' is this?
LAFEU
Why, Doctor She: my lord, there's one arrived,
If you will see her: now, by my faith and honour,
If seriously I may convey my thoughts
In this my light deliverance, I have spoke
With one that, in her sex, her years, profession,
Wisdom and constancy, hath amazed me more
Than I dare blame my weakness: will you see her
For that is her demand, and know her business?
That done, laugh well at me.
KING
Now, good Lafeu,
Bring in the admiration; that we with thee
May spend our wonder too, or take off thine
By wondering how thou took'st it.
LAFEU
Nay, I'll fit you,
And not be all day neither.
Exit

KING
Thus he his special nothing ever prologues.
Re-enter LAFEU, with HELENA

LAFEU
Nay, come your ways.
KING
This haste hath wings indeed.
LAFEU
Nay, come your ways:
This is his majesty; say your mind to him:
A traitor you do look like; but such traitors
His majesty seldom fears: I am Cressid's uncle,
That dare leave two together; fare you well.
Exit

KING
Now, fair one, does your business follow us?
HELENA
Ay, my good lord.
Gerard de Narbon was my father;
In what he did profess, well found.
KING
I knew him.
HELENA
The rather will I spare my praises towards him:
Knowing him is enough. On's bed of death
Many receipts he gave me: chiefly one.
Which, as the dearest issue of his practise,
And of his old experience the oily darling,
He bade me store up, as a triple eye,
Safer than mine own two, more dear; I have so;
And hearing your high majesty is touch'd
With that malignant cause wherein the honour
Of my dear father's gift stands chief in power,
I come to tender it and my appliance
With all bound humbleness.
KING
We thank you, maiden;
But may not be so credulous of cure,
When our most learned doctors leave us and
The congregated college have concluded
That labouring art can never ransom nature
From her inaidible estate; I say we must not
So stain our judgment, or corrupt our hope,
To prostitute our past-cure malady
To empirics, or to dissever so
Our great self and our credit, to esteem
A senseless help when help past sense we deem.
HELENA
My duty then shall pay me for my pains:
I will no more enforce mine office on you.
Humbly entreating from your royal thoughts
A modest one, to bear me back again.
KING
I cannot give thee less, to be call'd grateful:
Thou thought'st to help me; and such thanks I give
As one near death to those that wish him live:
But what at full I know, thou know'st no part,
I knowing all my peril, thou no art.
HELENA
What I can do can do no hurt to try,
Since you set up your rest 'gainst remedy.
He that of greatest works is finisher
Oft does them by the weakest minister:
So holy writ in babes hath judgment shown,
When judges have been babes; great floods have flown
From simple sources, and great seas have dried
When miracles have by the greatest been denied.
Oft expectation fails and most oft there
Where most it promises, and oft it hits
Where hope is coldest and despair most fits.
KING
I must not hear thee; fare thee well, kind maid;
Thy pains not used must by thyself be paid:
Proffers not took reap thanks for their reward.
HELENA
Inspired merit so by breath is barr'd:
It is not so with Him that all things knows
As 'tis with us that square our guess by shows;
But most it is presumption in us when
The help of heaven we count the act of men.
Dear sir, to my endeavours give consent;
Of heaven, not me, make an experiment.
I am not an impostor that proclaim
Myself against the level of mine aim;
But know I think and think I know most sure
My art is not past power nor you past cure.
KING
Are thou so confident? within what space
Hopest thou my cure?
HELENA
The great'st grace lending grace
Ere twice the horses of the sun shall bring
Their fiery torcher his diurnal ring,
Ere twice in murk and occidental damp
Moist Hesperus hath quench'd his sleepy lamp,
Or four and twenty times the pilot's glass
Hath told the thievish minutes how they pass,
What is infirm from your sound parts shall fly,
Health shall live free and sickness freely die.
KING
Upon thy certainty and confidence
What darest thou venture?
HELENA
Tax of impudence,
A strumpet's boldness, a divulged shame
Traduced by odious ballads: my maiden's name
Sear'd otherwise; nay, worse--if worse--extended
With vilest torture let my life be ended.
KING
Methinks in thee some blessed spirit doth speak
His powerful sound within an organ weak:
And what impossibility would slay
In common sense, sense saves another way.
Thy life is dear; for all that life can rate
Worth name of life in thee hath estimate,
Youth, beauty, wisdom, courage, all
That happiness and prime can happy call:
Thou this to hazard needs must intimate
Skill infinite or monstrous desperate.
Sweet practiser, thy physic I will try,
That ministers thine own death if I die.
HELENA
If I break time, or flinch in property
Of what I spoke, unpitied let me die,
And well deserved: not helping, death's my fee;
But, if I help, what do you promise me?
KING
Make thy demand.
HELENA
But will you make it even?
KING
Ay, by my sceptre and my hopes of heaven.
HELENA
Then shalt thou give me with thy kingly hand
What husband in thy power I will command:
Exempted be from me the arrogance
To choose from forth the royal blood of France,
My low and humble name to propagate
With any branch or image of thy state;
But such a one, thy vassal, whom I know
Is free for me to ask, thee to bestow.
KING
Here is my hand; the premises observed,
Thy will by my performance shall be served:
So make the choice of thy own time, for I,
Thy resolved patient, on thee still rely.
More should I question thee, and more I must,
Though more to know could not be more to trust,
From whence thou camest, how tended on: but rest
Unquestion'd welcome and undoubted blest.
Give me some help here, ho! If thou proceed
As high as word, my deed shall match thy meed.
Flourish. Exeunt
第二幕

    第一场巴黎。宫中一室

    喇叭奏花腔。国王、出发参加弗罗棱萨战争之若干少年廷臣、勃特拉姆、帕洛
及侍从等上。

    国王诸位贤卿，再会，希望你们恪守骑士的精神；还有你们诸位，再会，我
的话你们可以分领；但是即使双方都打算独占，我的忠告也可以自行扩大，供你们
双方听取。

    臣甲但愿我们立功回来，陛下早已恢复了健康。

    国王不，不，那可是没有希望的了，虽然我的未死的雄心，还不肯承认它已
经沾上了不治的痼疾。再会，诸位贤卿，无论我是死是活，你们总要做个发扬祖国
光荣的法兰西好男儿，让那些国运凌夷的意大利人知道你们去不是向光荣求婚，而
是去把它迎娶回来。当那些意气纵横的勇士知难怯退的时候，便是你们奋身博取世
人称誉的机会。再会！

    臣乙但愿陛下早复健康。

    国王那些意大利的姑娘们是要留心提防的；人家说，要是她们有什么请求，
我们法文中缺少拒绝她们的字眼；倘然你们还没有上战场，就已经作了俘虏，那可
不行的。

    臣甲

    臣乙我们诚心接受陛下的警告。

    国王再会！你们跟我过来。（侍从扶下。）

    臣甲啊，大人，真想不到您不能跟我们一起出去！

    帕洛那不是他自己的错处，他是个汉子。

    臣乙啊，打仗是怪好玩的。

    帕洛真有意思，我也经历过这种战争哩。

    勃特拉姆王上命令我留在这儿，无微不至地照顾我，说我太年轻，叫我明年
再去，说是现在太早了。

    帕洛哥儿，您要是立定主意，就该放大胆子，偷偷地逃跑出去。

    勃特拉姆我留在这儿，就像一匹给妇人女子驾驭的辕下驹，终日在石道上销
磨我的足力，等着人家一个个夺了光荣回来，再没有机会一试我的身手，让腰间的
宝剑除了作跳舞的装饰以外，没有一点别的用处！不，天日在上，我一定要逃跑出
去。

    臣甲这虽然是一件偷偷摸摸干着的事，可是并不丢脸。



    帕洛爵爷，您就这么干吧。

    臣乙您要是有需要我的地方，我愿意尽力帮您的忙。回头见。

    勃特拉姆咱们已经成了好朋友，我真不忍和你们分别。

    臣甲再见，队长。

    臣乙好帕洛先生，回头见！

    帕洛高贵的英雄们，我的剑和你们的剑是同气相求的：同样晶莹，同样明亮，
一句话，同样是用上等精钢铸成的。让我告诉你们，在斯宾那人的营伍里有一个史
布利奥上尉，他那凶神一样的脸上有一道疤痕，那就是我亲手用这柄剑给他刻下来
的；你们要是见了他，请告诉他我还活着，听他怎样说我。

    臣乙我们一定这样告诉他，队长。（廷臣等下。）

    帕洛战神保佑你们这批新收的门徒！您怎么办呢？

    勃特拉姆且住，王上来了。

    国王重上；帕洛及勃特拉姆退后。

    帕洛你应该对那些出征的同僚们表现得更殷勤一些；方才你和他们道别的神
气未免过于冷淡。应该多奉承奉承他们，因为他们代表着时髦的尖端；他们办事、
吃喝、言谈和举止行为是受到普遍瞻仰的；即使领队跳舞的是魔鬼，也应该跟随在
这些人后面。快追上去，和他们作一次更从容的叙别吧。

    勃特拉姆好吧，我就这样作。

    帕洛他们都是些有身分的小伙子，耍起剑来，胳臂也满有劲的。（勃特拉姆、
帕洛下。）

    拉佛上。

    拉佛（跪）陛下，请您恕我冒昧，禀告您一个消息。

    国王站起来说吧。

    拉佛好，我得到宽恕，站起来了。陛下，我希望原来是您跪着向我求恕，我
叫您站起来，您也能这样不费力地站起来。

    国王我也愿意这样，我很想打破你的头，再请你原谅。

    拉佛那可不敢当。可是陛下，您愿意医好您的病吗？

    国王不。

    拉佛啊，我尊贵的狐狸，不吃葡萄了吗？但是我这些葡萄品种特别优良，只
要您够得着，您一定会吃的。我刚看到一种药，可以使顽石有了生命，您吃了之后，
就会生龙活虎似的跳起舞来；它可以使培平大王重返阳世，它可以使查里曼大帝拿
起笔来，为她写一行情诗。

    国王是哪一个“她”？

    拉佛她就是我所要说的那位女医生。陛下，她就在外边，等候着您的赐见。
我敢凭着我的忠诚和信誉发誓，要是您不以为我的话都是随便说着玩玩，不足为准
的话，那么像她这样一位有能耐、聪明而意志坚定的青年女子，的确使我惊奇钦佩，
我相信那不能归咎于我的天生的弱点。她现在要求拜见陛下，不知道陛下愿不愿意
准如所请，问一问她的来意？要是您在见了她之后，觉得我说的全都是虚话，那时
再请您把我大大地取笑一番吧。

    国王好拉佛，那么你去带那个奇女子进来，让我们大家也像你一样惊奇，或
者挖苦你无故地大惊小怪。

    拉佛请陛下等着瞧，没错。我马上就来。（下。）

    国王他无论有什么事，总是先拉上一堆废话。

    拉佛率海丽娜重上。

    拉佛来，这儿来。

    国王这么快！他倒真是插着翅膀飞的。

    拉佛来，这儿来。这位就是王上陛下，你有什么话可以对他说。瞧你的样子
像一个叛徒，可是你这样的叛徒，王上是不会害怕的。我就是克瑞西达的舅父，把
青年男女留在一块，毫不担心。再见。（下。）

    国王姑娘，你是有什么事情来见我的吗？

    海丽娜是的，陛下。吉拉·德·拿滂是我的父亲，他在医道上是颇有研究的。

    国王我知道他。

    海丽娜陛下既然知道他，我也不必再多费唇舌夸奖他了。他在临死的时候，
传给我许多秘方，其中主要的一个，是他积多年悬壶的经验配制而成，他对它十分
珍惜，叫我用心保藏起来，把它当作自己心头一块肉一样珍爱着。我听从着他的嘱
咐，从来不敢把它轻易示人，现在闻知陛下的症状，正就是先父所传秘方主治的一
种疾病，所以甘冒万死前来，把它和我的技术呈献陛下。

    国王谢谢你，姑娘，可是我不能轻信你的药饵；我们这里最高明的医生都已
经离开了我，众口一辞地断定病入膏肓，决非人力所能挽回的了。我怎么可以糊里
糊涂地把我的痴心妄想，寄托在庸医的试验上，认为它可以医治我的不治之症呢？
我不能让人家讥笑我的昏愦，当一切救助都已无能为力的时候，再去相信一种无意
识的救助呀。

    海丽娜陛下既然这么说，我也不敢勉强陛下接纳我的微劳，总算我跋涉了这
一趟，略尽我对陛下的一番忠悃，也可以说是不虚此行了。我别无所求，但求陛下
放我回去。

    国王你来此也是一番好意，这一个要求当然可以准许你。你想来帮助我，一
个垂死之人，对于希望他转死回生的人，不用说是十分感激的；可是我自己充分知
道我的病状已经险恶到什么程度，你却没有着手成春的妙术，又有什么办法呢？

    海丽娜既然陛下已经断定一切治疗都已无望，那么就给我一个机会，让我试
一试我的本领，又有什么妨碍呢？创造世界的神，往往借助于最微弱者之手，当士
师们有如童癔的时候，上帝的旨意往往借着婴儿的身上显示；洪水可以从涓滴的细
流中发生；当世间的君王不肯承认奇迹的时候，大海却会干涸。最有把握的希望，
往往结果终于失望；最少希望的事情，反会出人意外地成功。

    国王我不能再听你说下去了；再会，善心的姑娘！你的殷勤未邀采纳，只好
徒然往返；未被接受的帮助，只能以感谢为报酬。

    海丽娜天启的智能，就是这样为一言所毁。人们总是凭着外表妄加臆测，无
所不知的上帝却不是这样，明明是来自上天的援助，人们却武断地诿之于人力。陛
下，请您接受我的劳力吧，这并不是试验我的本领，乃是试验上天的意旨。我不是
一个大言欺人的骗子，而能够说到作到；我知道我有充分的把握，我也确信我的医
方决不会失去效力，陛下的病也决不会毫无希望。

    国王你是这样确信着吗？那么你希望在多少时间内把我的病医好？

    海丽娜只要慈悲的上帝鉴临垂佑，在太阳神的骏马拖着火轮兜了两个圈子，
阴沉的暮色两次吹熄了朦胧的残辉，或是航海者的滴漏二十四回告诉人们那窃贼一
样的时间怎样偷溜过去以前，陛下身上的病痛便会霍然脱体，重享着自由自在的健
康生活。

    国王你有这样的自信，要是结果失败呢？

    海丽娜请陛下谴责我的卤莽，把我当作一个无耻的娼妓，让世人编造诽谤的
歌谣，宣扬我的耻辱；我的处女的清名永远丧失，如果这还不够，我的生命也可以
在最苛虐的酷刑中毁灭。

    国王我觉得仿佛有一个天使，借着你柔弱的口中发出他的有力的声音；虽然
就常识判断起来应该是不可能的事，却使我不能不信。你的生命是可贵的，因为在
你身上具备一切生命中值得赞美的事物，青春、美貌、智慧、勇气、贤德，这些都
是足以使人生幸福的；你愿意把这一切作为孤注，那必然表示你有非凡的能耐，否
则你一定有一种异常胆大妄为的天性。好医生，我愿意试一试你的药方，要是我死
了，你自己可也不免一死。

    海丽娜要是我不能按照限定的时间把陛下治愈，或者医治的结果，跟我说过
的话稍有不符之处，我愿意引颈就戮，死而无怨。药方若不能奏效，死就是我的犒
赏；不过要是我把陛下的病治好了，那么陛下答应给我什么酬报呢？

    国王你可以提出无论什么要求。

    海丽娜可是陛下是不是能够满足我的要求呢？

    国王凭着我的王杖和死后超生的希望起誓，我一定答应你。

    海丽娜那么我要请陛下亲手赐给我一个我所选中的丈夫。我不敢冒昧在法兰
西的王族中寻求选择的对象，把我这卑贱的名姓攀附金枝玉叶；只要陛下准许我在
您的臣仆之中，拣一个我可以向您要求、您也可以允许给我的人，我就感激不尽了。

    国王那么一言为定，你治好了我的病，我也一定帮助你如愿以偿。我已经决
心信赖着你的治疗，你等着自己选择吧。我本来还有一些问题要问你，我也必须知
道你是从什么地方来的，和谁一起来的；可是即使我不问你这些问题，我也可以完
全相信你，因此，不问也罢。请你接受我真心的欢迎和诚意的祝福。来人！扶我进
去。你的手段倘使果然像你所说的那样高明，我一定不会辜负你的好处。（喇叭奏
花腔。同下。）

SCENE II. Rousillon. The COUNT's palace.

Enter COUNTESS and Clown
COUNTESS
Come on, sir; I shall now put you to the height of
your breeding.
Clown
I will show myself highly fed and lowly taught: I
know my business is but to the court.
COUNTESS
To the court! why, what place make you special,
when you put off that with such contempt? But to the court!
Clown
Truly, madam, if God have lent a man any manners, he
may easily put it off at court: he that cannot make
a leg, put off's cap, kiss his hand and say nothing,
has neither leg, hands, lip, nor cap; and indeed
such a fellow, to say precisely, were not for the
court; but for me, I have an answer will serve all
men.
COUNTESS
Marry, that's a bountiful answer that fits all
questions.
Clown
It is like a barber's chair that fits all buttocks,
the pin-buttock, the quatch-buttock, the brawn
buttock, or any buttock.
COUNTESS
Will your answer serve fit to all questions?
Clown
As fit as ten groats is for the hand of an attorney,
as your French crown for your taffeta punk, as Tib's
rush for Tom's forefinger, as a pancake for Shrove
Tuesday, a morris for May-day, as the nail to his
hole, the cuckold to his horn, as a scolding queen
to a wrangling knave, as the nun's lip to the
friar's mouth, nay, as the pudding to his skin.
COUNTESS
Have you, I say, an answer of such fitness for all
questions?
Clown
From below your duke to beneath your constable, it
will fit any question.
COUNTESS
It must be an answer of most monstrous size that
must fit all demands.
Clown
But a trifle neither, in good faith, if the learned
should speak truth of it: here it is, and all that
belongs to't. Ask me if I am a courtier: it shall
do you no harm to learn.
COUNTESS
To be young again, if we could: I will be a fool in
question, hoping to be the wiser by your answer. I
pray you, sir, are you a courtier?
Clown
O Lord, sir! There's a simple putting off. More,
more, a hundred of them.
COUNTESS
Sir, I am a poor friend of yours, that loves you.
Clown
O Lord, sir! Thick, thick, spare not me.
COUNTESS
I think, sir, you can eat none of this homely meat.
Clown
O Lord, sir! Nay, put me to't, I warrant you.
COUNTESS
You were lately whipped, sir, as I think.
Clown
O Lord, sir! spare not me.
COUNTESS
Do you cry, 'O Lord, sir!' at your whipping, and
'spare not me?' Indeed your 'O Lord, sir!' is very
sequent to your whipping: you would answer very well
to a whipping, if you were but bound to't.
Clown
I ne'er had worse luck in my life in my 'O Lord,
sir!' I see things may serve long, but not serve ever.
COUNTESS
I play the noble housewife with the time
To entertain't so merrily with a fool.
Clown
O Lord, sir! why, there't serves well again.
COUNTESS
An end, sir; to your business. Give Helen this,
And urge her to a present answer back:
Commend me to my kinsmen and my son:
This is not much.
Clown
Not much commendation to them.
COUNTESS
Not much employment for you: you understand me?
Clown
Most fruitfully: I am there before my legs.
COUNTESS
Haste you again.
Exeunt severally
第二场罗西昂。伯爵夫人府中一室

    伯爵夫人及小丑上。

    伯爵夫人来，小子，现在我要试试你的教养如何了。

    小丑人家会说我是个锦衣玉食的鄙夫。您的意思不过是要叫我上宫廷里去吗？

    伯爵夫人上宫廷里去！你到过些什么好地方，说的话儿这样神气活现，“不
过是上宫廷里去。”

    小丑不说假话，太太，一个人只要懂得三分礼貌，在宫廷里混混是再容易不
过的事。谁要是连屈个膝儿，脱个帽儿，吻个手儿，说些个空话儿也不会，那简直
是个不生腿、不生手、不生嘴唇的木头人。这种家伙当然是不配到宫廷里去的。可
是我有一句话儿，什么问话都可以应付过去。

    伯爵夫人啊，一句答话可以回答一切问题，这倒是闻所未闻。

    小丑它就像理发匠的椅子一样，什么屁股坐上去都合适；尖屁股，扁屁股，
瘦屁股，肥屁股，或是无论什么屁股。

    伯爵夫人那么你的答话对于无论什么问题也都一样合适吗？

    小丑正像律师手里的讼费、娼妓手里的夜度资、新郎手指上的婚戒、忏悔火
曜日②的煎饼、五朔节③的化装跳舞一样合适；也正像钉之于孔、乌龟之于绿头巾、
尖嘴姑娘之于泼皮无赖、尼姑嘴唇之于和尚嘴巴，或者说，腊肠之于腊肠皮一样天
造地设。

    伯爵夫人你果然有这样一句百发百中的答话吗？

    小丑上至公卿，下至皂隶，什么问话都可以用这句话回答。

    伯爵夫人那准是个又臭又长的答话，才能应付所有的问题。

    小丑再简单没有了，真的，有学问的老先生都这么说。一共不过几个字，我
来给您演一下。您先问我我是不是个官儿；问啊，这有什么关系呢？

    伯爵夫人好，我就充一会儿傻瓜，也许可以跟你学点儿乖。请问足下是不是
在朝廷里得意？

    小丑啊，岂敢岂敢！——这不是很便当地应付过去了吗？再问下去，再问我
一百个问题。

    伯爵夫人老兄，咱们是老朋友，小弟一向佩服您的。

    小丑啊，岂敢岂敢！——再来，再来，不要放过我。

    伯爵夫人这肉煮得太不入味，恐怕不合老兄胃口。

    小丑啊，岂敢岂敢！——再问下去，尽管问下去。

    伯爵夫人听说最近您曾经给人家抽了一顿鞭子。

    小丑啊，岂敢岂敢！——不要放过我。

    伯爵夫人你在给人家鞭打的时候，也是喊着“岂敢岂敢”，还要叫他们不要
放过你吗？可是你在挨一顿鞭子之后，也的确应该喊几声“岂敢岂敢！”只要叫你
手脚老实些，你对鞭子准能够应答如流。

    小丑我的“岂敢岂敢” 百试百灵，今天却是第一次倒了霉。看来无论怎样经
久耐用的东西，也总有一天失去效用的。

    伯爵夫人我就像是个大手大脚的女管家，对时间不肯精打细算，所以才跟你
这傻瓜胡扯了半天。

    小丑啊，岂敢岂敢！你看，不是又用上了吗？

    伯爵夫人住口吧，老兄，现在还是谈正事吧。你看见了海伦姑娘，就把这封
信交给她，请她立刻答复我；还给我致意问候我的那些亲戚们，也去问问少爷安好。
这算不了什么吧？

    小丑您是说您的问候算不了什么吗？

    伯爵夫人我是说这点事算不了什么。你听懂了吧？

    小丑哦，恍然大悟。我这就叫腰腿活动起来。

    伯爵夫人你快去吧。（各下。）

SCENE III. Paris. The KING's palace.

Enter BERTRAM, LAFEU, and PAROLLES
LAFEU
They say miracles are past; and we have our
philosophical persons, to make modern and familiar,
things supernatural and causeless. Hence is it that
we make trifles of terrors, ensconcing ourselves
into seeming knowledge, when we should submit
ourselves to an unknown fear.
PAROLLES
Why, 'tis the rarest argument of wonder that hath
shot out in our latter times.
BERTRAM
And so 'tis.
LAFEU
To be relinquish'd of the artists,--
PAROLLES
So I say.
LAFEU
Both of Galen and Paracelsus.
PAROLLES
So I say.
LAFEU
Of all the learned and authentic fellows,--
PAROLLES
Right; so I say.
LAFEU
That gave him out incurable,--
PAROLLES
Why, there 'tis; so say I too.
LAFEU
Not to be helped,--
PAROLLES
Right; as 'twere, a man assured of a--
LAFEU
Uncertain life, and sure death.
PAROLLES
Just, you say well; so would I have said.
LAFEU
I may truly say, it is a novelty to the world.
PAROLLES
It is, indeed: if you will have it in showing, you
shall read it in--what do you call there?
LAFEU
A showing of a heavenly effect in an earthly actor.
PAROLLES
That's it; I would have said the very same.
LAFEU
Why, your dolphin is not lustier: 'fore me,
I speak in respect--
PAROLLES
Nay, 'tis strange, 'tis very strange, that is the
brief and the tedious of it; and he's of a most
facinerious spirit that will not acknowledge it to be the--
LAFEU
Very hand of heaven.
PAROLLES
Ay, so I say.
LAFEU
In a most weak--
pausing

and debile minister, great power, great
transcendence: which should, indeed, give us a
further use to be made than alone the recovery of
the king, as to be--
pausing

generally thankful.
PAROLLES
I would have said it; you say well. Here comes the king.
Enter KING, HELENA, and Attendants. LAFEU and PAROLLES retire

LAFEU
Lustig, as the Dutchman says: I'll like a maid the
better, whilst I have a tooth in my head: why, he's
able to lead her a coranto.
PAROLLES
Mort du vinaigre! is not this Helen?
LAFEU
'Fore God, I think so.
KING
Go, call before me all the lords in court.
Sit, my preserver, by thy patient's side;
And with this healthful hand, whose banish'd sense
Thou hast repeal'd, a second time receive
The confirmation of my promised gift,
Which but attends thy naming.
Enter three or four Lords

Fair maid, send forth thine eye: this youthful parcel
Of noble bachelors stand at my bestowing,
O'er whom both sovereign power and father's voice
I have to use: thy frank election make;
Thou hast power to choose, and they none to forsake.
HELENA
To each of you one fair and virtuous mistress
Fall, when Love please! marry, to each, but one!
LAFEU
I'ld give bay Curtal and his furniture,
My mouth no more were broken than these boys',
And writ as little beard.
KING
Peruse them well:
Not one of those but had a noble father.
HELENA
Gentlemen,
Heaven hath through me restored the king to health.
All
We understand it, and thank heaven for you.
HELENA
I am a simple maid, and therein wealthiest,
That I protest I simply am a maid.
Please it your majesty, I have done already:
The blushes in my cheeks thus whisper me,
'We blush that thou shouldst choose; but, be refused,
Let the white death sit on thy cheek for ever;
We'll ne'er come there again.'
KING
Make choice; and, see,
Who shuns thy love shuns all his love in me.
HELENA
Now, Dian, from thy altar do I fly,
And to imperial Love, that god most high,
Do my sighs stream. Sir, will you hear my suit?
First Lord
And grant it.
HELENA
Thanks, sir; all the rest is mute.
LAFEU
I had rather be in this choice than throw ames-ace
for my life.
HELENA
The honour, sir, that flames in your fair eyes,
Before I speak, too threateningly replies:
Love make your fortunes twenty times above
Her that so wishes and her humble love!
Second Lord
No better, if you please.
HELENA
My wish receive,
Which great Love grant! and so, I take my leave.
LAFEU
Do all they deny her? An they were sons of mine,
I'd have them whipped; or I would send them to the
Turk, to make eunuchs of.
HELENA
Be not afraid that I your hand should take;
I'll never do you wrong for your own sake:
Blessing upon your vows! and in your bed
Find fairer fortune, if you ever wed!
LAFEU
These boys are boys of ice, they'll none have her:
sure, they are bastards to the English; the French
ne'er got 'em.
HELENA
You are too young, too happy, and too good,
To make yourself a son out of my blood.
Fourth Lord
Fair one, I think not so.
LAFEU
There's one grape yet; I am sure thy father drunk
wine: but if thou be'st not an ass, I am a youth
of fourteen; I have known thee already.
HELENA
[To BERTRAM] I dare not say I take you; but I give
Me and my service, ever whilst I live,
Into your guiding power. This is the man.
KING
Why, then, young Bertram, take her; she's thy wife.
BERTRAM
My wife, my liege! I shall beseech your highness,
In such a business give me leave to use
The help of mine own eyes.
KING
Know'st thou not, Bertram,
What she has done for me?
BERTRAM
Yes, my good lord;
But never hope to know why I should marry her.
KING
Thou know'st she has raised me from my sickly bed.
BERTRAM
But follows it, my lord, to bring me down
Must answer for your raising? I know her well:
She had her breeding at my father's charge.
A poor physician's daughter my wife! Disdain
Rather corrupt me ever!
KING
'Tis only title thou disdain'st in her, the which
I can build up. Strange is it that our bloods,
Of colour, weight, and heat, pour'd all together,
Would quite confound distinction, yet stand off
In differences so mighty. If she be
All that is virtuous, save what thou dislikest,
A poor physician's daughter, thou dislikest
Of virtue for the name: but do not so:
From lowest place when virtuous things proceed,
The place is dignified by the doer's deed:
Where great additions swell's, and virtue none,
It is a dropsied honour. Good alone
Is good without a name. Vileness is so:
The property by what it is should go,
Not by the title. She is young, wise, fair;
In these to nature she's immediate heir,
And these breed honour: that is honour's scorn,
Which challenges itself as honour's born
And is not like the sire: honours thrive,
When rather from our acts we them derive
Than our foregoers: the mere word's a slave
Debosh'd on every tomb, on every grave
A lying trophy, and as oft is dumb
Where dust and damn'd oblivion is the tomb
Of honour'd bones indeed. What should be said?
If thou canst like this creature as a maid,
I can create the rest: virtue and she
Is her own dower; honour and wealth from me.
BERTRAM
I cannot love her, nor will strive to do't.
KING
Thou wrong'st thyself, if thou shouldst strive to choose.
HELENA
That you are well restored, my lord, I'm glad:
Let the rest go.
KING
My honour's at the stake; which to defeat,
I must produce my power. Here, take her hand,
Proud scornful boy, unworthy this good gift;
That dost in vile misprision shackle up
My love and her desert; that canst not dream,
We, poising us in her defective scale,
Shall weigh thee to the beam; that wilt not know,
It is in us to plant thine honour where
We please to have it grow. Cheque thy contempt:
Obey our will, which travails in thy good:
Believe not thy disdain, but presently
Do thine own fortunes that obedient right
Which both thy duty owes and our power claims;
Or I will throw thee from my care for ever
Into the staggers and the careless lapse
Of youth and ignorance; both my revenge and hate
Loosing upon thee, in the name of justice,
Without all terms of pity. Speak; thine answer.
BERTRAM
Pardon, my gracious lord; for I submit
My fancy to your eyes: when I consider
What great creation and what dole of honour
Flies where you bid it, I find that she, which late
Was in my nobler thoughts most base, is now
The praised of the king; who, so ennobled,
Is as 'twere born so.
KING
Take her by the hand,
And tell her she is thine: to whom I promise
A counterpoise, if not to thy estate
A balance more replete.
BERTRAM
I take her hand.
KING
Good fortune and the favour of the king
Smile upon this contract; whose ceremony
Shall seem expedient on the now-born brief,
And be perform'd to-night: the solemn feast
Shall more attend upon the coming space,
Expecting absent friends. As thou lovest her,
Thy love's to me religious; else, does err.
Exeunt all but LAFEU and PAROLLES

LAFEU
[Advancing] Do you hear, monsieur? a word with you.
PAROLLES
Your pleasure, sir?
LAFEU
Your lord and master did well to make his
recantation.
PAROLLES
Recantation! My lord! my master!
LAFEU
Ay; is it not a language I speak?
PAROLLES
A most harsh one, and not to be understood without
bloody succeeding. My master!
LAFEU
Are you companion to the Count Rousillon?
PAROLLES
To any count, to all counts, to what is man.
LAFEU
To what is count's man: count's master is of
another style.
PAROLLES
You are too old, sir; let it satisfy you, you are too old.
LAFEU
I must tell thee, sirrah, I write man; to which
title age cannot bring thee.
PAROLLES
What I dare too well do, I dare not do.
LAFEU
I did think thee, for two ordinaries, to be a pretty
wise fellow; thou didst make tolerable vent of thy
travel; it might pass: yet the scarfs and the
bannerets about thee did manifoldly dissuade me from
believing thee a vessel of too great a burthen. I
have now found thee; when I lose thee again, I care
not: yet art thou good for nothing but taking up; and
that thou't scarce worth.
PAROLLES
Hadst thou not the privilege of antiquity upon thee,--
LAFEU
Do not plunge thyself too far in anger, lest thou
hasten thy trial; which if--Lord have mercy on thee
for a hen! So, my good window of lattice, fare thee
well: thy casement I need not open, for I look
through thee. Give me thy hand.
PAROLLES
My lord, you give me most egregious indignity.
LAFEU
Ay, with all my heart; and thou art worthy of it.
PAROLLES
I have not, my lord, deserved it.
LAFEU
Yes, good faith, every dram of it; and I will not
bate thee a scruple.
PAROLLES
Well, I shall be wiser.
LAFEU
Even as soon as thou canst, for thou hast to pull at
a smack o' the contrary. If ever thou be'st bound
in thy scarf and beaten, thou shalt find what it is
to be proud of thy bondage. I have a desire to hold
my acquaintance with thee, or rather my knowledge,
that I may say in the default, he is a man I know.
PAROLLES
My lord, you do me most insupportable vexation.
LAFEU
I would it were hell-pains for thy sake, and my poor
doing eternal: for doing I am past: as I will by
thee, in what motion age will give me leave.
Exit

PAROLLES
Well, thou hast a son shall take this disgrace off
me; scurvy, old, filthy, scurvy lord! Well, I must
be patient; there is no fettering of authority.
I'll beat him, by my life, if I can meet him with
any convenience, an he were double and double a
lord. I'll have no more pity of his age than I
would of--I'll beat him, an if I could but meet him again.
Re-enter LAFEU

LAFEU
Sirrah, your lord and master's married; there's news
for you: you have a new mistress.
PAROLLES
I most unfeignedly beseech your lordship to make
some reservation of your wrongs: he is my good
lord: whom I serve above is my master.
LAFEU
Who? God?
PAROLLES
Ay, sir.
LAFEU
The devil it is that's thy master. Why dost thou
garter up thy arms o' this fashion? dost make hose of
sleeves? do other servants so? Thou wert best set
thy lower part where thy nose stands. By mine
honour, if I were but two hours younger, I'ld beat
thee: methinks, thou art a general offence, and
every man should beat thee: I think thou wast
created for men to breathe themselves upon thee.
PAROLLES
This is hard and undeserved measure, my lord.
LAFEU
Go to, sir; you were beaten in Italy for picking a
kernel out of a pomegranate; you are a vagabond and
no true traveller: you are more saucy with lords
and honourable personages than the commission of your
birth and virtue gives you heraldry. You are not
worth another word, else I'ld call you knave. I leave you.
Exit

PAROLLES
Good, very good; it is so then: good, very good;
let it be concealed awhile.
Re-enter BERTRAM

BERTRAM
Undone, and forfeited to cares for ever!
PAROLLES
What's the matter, sweet-heart?
BERTRAM
Although before the solemn priest I have sworn,
I will not bed her.
PAROLLES
What, what, sweet-heart?
BERTRAM
O my Parolles, they have married me!
I'll to the Tuscan wars, and never bed her.
PAROLLES
France is a dog-hole, and it no more merits
The tread of a man's foot: to the wars!
BERTRAM
There's letters from my mother: what the import is,
I know not yet.
PAROLLES
Ay, that would be known. To the wars, my boy, to the wars!
He wears his honour in a box unseen,
That hugs his kicky-wicky here at home,
Spending his manly marrow in her arms,
Which should sustain the bound and high curvet
Of Mars's fiery steed. To other regions
France is a stable; we that dwell in't jades;
Therefore, to the war!
BERTRAM
It shall be so: I'll send her to my house,
Acquaint my mother with my hate to her,
And wherefore I am fled; write to the king
That which I durst not speak; his present gift
Shall furnish me to those Italian fields,
Where noble fellows strike: war is no strife
To the dark house and the detested wife.
PAROLLES
Will this capriccio hold in thee? art sure?
BERTRAM
Go with me to my chamber, and advise me.
I'll send her straight away: to-morrow
I'll to the wars, she to her single sorrow.
PAROLLES
Why, these balls bound; there's noise in it. 'Tis hard:
A young man married is a man that's marr'd:
Therefore away, and leave her bravely; go:
The king has done you wrong: but, hush, 'tis so.
Exeunt
第三场巴黎。宫中一室

    勃特拉姆、拉佛、帕洛同上。

    拉佛人家说奇迹已经过去了，我们现在这一辈博学深思的人们，惯把不可思
议的事情看作平淡无奇，因此我们把惊骇视同儿戏，当我们应当为一种不知名的恐
惧而战栗的时候，我们却用谬妄的知识作为护身符。

    帕洛可不是吗？这件事真称得起是我们这个时代里发生的最了不起的奇闻。

    勃特拉姆正是正是。

    拉佛当精通医道的人都束手无策了——

    帕洛是是。

    拉佛什么伽伦，什么巴拉塞尔萨斯④——

    帕洛是是。

    拉佛以及那一大群有学问的专家们——

    帕洛是是。

    拉佛他们都断定他无药可治——

    帕洛对啊，一点不错。

    拉佛毫无痊愈的希望——

    帕洛对啊，他正像是——

    拉佛风中之烛，吉少凶多。

    帕洛正是，您说得真对。本来我也想这样说的。

    拉佛像这样的事情，真可以说是不世的奇迹。

    帕洛正是正是，要是您想知道舆论对这件事的反应，您就可以去看看那篇—
—叫什么来着？

    拉佛“上苍借手人力表现出来的灵异。”

    帕洛对了，那正是我所要说的话。

    拉佛现在他简直比海豚还壮健；这不是我故意说着不敬的话。

    帕洛总而言之，这真是奇事；只有最顽愚不化的人，才会不承认那是——

    拉佛上天借手于——

    帕洛是是。

    拉佛一个最柔弱无能的使者，表现他的伟大超越的力量；感谢上天的眷顾，
他不但保佑我们王上恢复健康，一定还会赐更多的幸福给我们。

    帕洛您说得真对，我也是这个意思。王上来了。

    国王、海丽娜及侍从等上。

    拉佛正像荷兰人爱说的口头语：“可喜可庆。”我以后要格外喜欢姑娘们了，
趁着我的牙齿还没有完全掉下。瞧，他简直可以拉着她跳舞呢。

    帕洛嗳哟！这不是海伦吗？

    拉佛我相信是的。

    国王去，把朝廷中所有的贵族一起召来。（一侍从下）我的恩人，请你坐在
你病人的旁边。我这一只手多亏你使它恢复了知觉，现在它将要给与你我已经允许
你的礼物，只等你指点出来。

    若干廷臣上。

    国王好姑娘，用你的眼睛观看，这一群年轻未婚的贵人，我对他们都可以运
用君上和严亲的两重权力，把他们中间的任何一人许配给你；你可以随意选择，他
们都不能拒绝你。

    海丽娜愿爱神保佑你们每一个人都能得到一位美貌贤淑的爱人！除了你们中
间的一个人之外。

    拉佛啊，我宁愿把我那匹短尾巴的棕色马连同鞍勒一齐送掉，只要我能恢复
青春，像这些孩子们一样——嘴里牙齿生得满满的，唇上胡须没多少。

    国王仔细看看他们，他们谁都有一个高贵的父亲。

    海丽娜各位大人，上天已经假手于我，治愈了王上的疾病。

    众人是，我们感谢上天差遣您前来。

    海丽娜我是一个简单愚鲁的女子，我可以向人夸耀的，只是我是一个清白的
少女。陛下，我已经选好了。我颊上的羞红向我低声耳语：“我们为你害羞，因为
你竟敢选择你自己的意中人；可是你倘然给人拒绝了，那么让苍白的死亡永远罩在
你的颊上吧，我们是永不再来的了。”

    国王你尽管放心选择吧，谁要是躲避你的爱情，让他永远得不到我的眷宠。

    海丽娜狄安娜女神，现在我要离开你的圣坛，把我的叹息奉献给至高无上的
爱神龛下了。大人，您愿意听我的诉请吗？

    臣甲但有所命，敢不乐从。

    海丽娜谢谢您，大人；我没有什么话要对您说的。

    拉佛我要是也能站在队里应选，就是叫我拿生命去押宝我也甘心。

    海丽娜（向臣乙）大人，我还没有向您开口，您眼睛里闪耀着的威焰，已经使
我自惭形秽、望而却步了。但愿爱神赐给您幸运，使您得到一位胜过我二十倍的美
人！

    臣乙得偶仙姿，已属万幸，岂敢更有奢求？

    海丽娜请您接受我的祝愿，少陪了。

    拉佛难道他们都拒绝了她吗？要是他们是我的儿子，我一定要把他们每人抽
一顿鞭子，或者把他们赏给土耳其人做太监去。

    海丽娜（向臣丙）不要害怕我会选中您，我决不会使您难堪的。上帝祝福您！
要是您有一天结婚，希望您娶到一位更好的妻子！

    拉佛这些孩子们放着这样一个人不要，难道都是冰做成的不成？他们一定是
英国人的私生子，咱们法国人决不会这样的。

    海丽娜（向臣丁）您是太年轻、太幸福、太好了，我配不上给您生儿养女。

    臣丁美人，我不能同意您的话。

    拉佛还剩下一颗葡萄。你的父亲大概是喝酒的。可是你倘然不是一头驴子，
就算我是一个十四岁的小娃娃；我早知道你是个什么人。

    海丽娜（向勃特拉姆）我不敢说我选取了您，可是我愿意把我自己奉献给您，
终身为您服役，一切听从您的指导。——这就是我选中的人。

    国王很好，勃特拉姆，那么你娶了她吧，她是你的妻子。

    勃特拉姆我的妻子，陛下！请陛下原谅，在这一件事情上，我是要凭着自己
的眼睛作主的。

    国王勃特拉姆，你不知道她给我作了什么事吗？

    勃特拉姆我知道，陛下；可是我不知道为什么我必须娶她。

    国王你知道她把我从病床上救了起来。

    勃特拉姆所以我必须降低身分，和一个下贱的女子结婚吗？我认识她是什么
人，她是靠着我家养活长大的。一个穷医生的女儿做我的妻子！我宁可一辈子倒霉！

    国王你看不起她，不过因为她地位低微，那我可以把她抬高起来。要是把人
们的血液倾注在一起，那颜色、重量和热度都难以区别，偏偏在人间的关系上，会
划分这样清楚的鸿沟，真是一件怪事。她倘然是一个道德上完善的女子，你不喜欢
她，只因为她是一个穷医生的女儿，那么你重视虚名甚于美德，这就错了。穷巷陋
室，有德之士居之，可以使蓬荜增辉，世禄之家，不务修善，虽有盛名，亦将隳败。
善恶的区别，在于行为的本身，不在于地位的有无。她有天赋的青春、智慧和美貌，
这一切的本身即是光荣；最可耻的，却是那些席父祖的余荫、不知绍述先志、一味
妄自尊大的人。最好的光荣应该来自我们自己的行动，而不是倚恃家门。虚名是一
个下贱的奴隶，在每一座墓碑上说着谎话，倒是在默默无言的一杯荒土之下，往往
埋葬着忠臣义士的骸骨。有什么话好说呢？只要你能因为这女子的本身而爱她，我
可以给她其余的一切；她的贤淑美貌是她自己的嫁奁，光荣和财富是我给她的赏赐。

    勃特拉姆我不能爱她，也不想爱她。

    国王你要是抗不奉命，一定要自讨没趣的。

    海丽娜陛下圣体复原，已经使我欣慰万分；其余的事情，不必谈了。

    国王这与我的信用有关，为使它不受损害，我必须运用我的权力。来，骄横
傲慢的孩子，握着她的手，你才不配接受这一件卓越的赐与呢。你的愚妄狂悖，不
但辜负了她的好处，也已经丧失了我的欢心。你以为她和你处在天平的不平衡的两
端，却不知道我站在她的一面，便可以把两方的轻重倒转过来；你也没有想到你的
升沉荣辱，完全操在我的手中。为了你自己的好处，赶快抑制你的轻蔑，服从我的
旨意；我有命令你的权力，你有服从我的天职；否则你将永远得不到我的眷顾，让
年轻的愚昧把你拖下了终身蹭蹬的深渊，我的愤恨和憎恶将要用王法的名义降临到
你的头上，没有一点怜悯宽恕。快回答我吧。

    勃特拉姆求陛下恕罪，我愿意捐弃个人的爱憎，服从陛下的指示。当我一想
起多少恩荣富贵，都可以随着陛下的一言而予夺，我就觉得适才我所认为最卑贱的
她，已经受到陛下的宠眷，而和出身贵族的女子同样高贵了。

    国王搀着她的手，对她说她是你的。我答应给她一份财产，即使不比你原有
的财产更富，也一定可以和你的互相匹敌。

    勃特拉姆我愿意娶她为妻。

    国王幸运和国王的恩宠祝福着你们的结合；你们的婚礼在双方同意之后应该
尽快举行，时间就订在今晚。至于隆重的婚宴，那么等远道的亲友到来以后再办吧。
你既然答应娶她，就该真诚爱她，不可稍有贰心。去吧。（国王、勃特拉姆、海丽
娜、群臣及侍从等同下。）

    拉佛对不起，朋友，跟你说句话儿。

    帕洛请问有何见教？

    拉佛贵主人一见形势不对就改变口气，倒很见机乖巧。

    帕洛改变口气！贵主人！

    拉佛啊，难道是我说错了吗？

    帕洛岂有此理！人家对我这样说话，我可不肯和他甘休的。贵主人！

    拉佛难道尊驾是罗西昂伯爵的朋友吗？

    帕洛什么伯爵都是我的朋友，是个男子汉大丈夫我就跟他做朋友。

    拉佛你只好跟伯爵们的跟班做朋友，伯爵们的主人你是攀不上的。

    帕洛你年纪太老了，老人家，你年纪太老了，还是少找些是非吧。

    拉佛混蛋，我是个男子汉大丈夫，你再活上一把年纪去也够不上做个汉子。

    帕洛要不是为了礼节和体统，我准会给你点厉害。

    拉佛原先有一段时候（也就是吃两顿饭的光景），我本来以为你是个有几分
聪明的家伙，你的故事也编造得有几分意思，可是一看你的装束，就知道你不是个
怎样了不起的人。我现在总算把你看透了，希望你以后少跟我往来。像你这样的家
伙，真是俯拾即是，不值得人家理睬。

    帕洛倘不是瞧在你这一把年纪份上——

    拉佛别太动肝火了吧，那会促短你的寿命的；上帝大发慈悲，可怜可怜你这
只老母鸡吧！再见，我的好格子窗；我不必打开窗门，因为我早已看得你雪亮了。
来，拉拉手。

    帕洛大人，你给我太难堪的侮辱了。

    拉佛是的，我诚心侮辱你，你可以受之无愧。

    帕洛大人，我没有任何理由该受您的侮辱。

    拉佛哪里的话？你不但该受，而且休想叫我减掉一分半毫。

    帕洛算了，以后我学乖一点。

    拉佛还是趁早吧；你吃的全是学呆而不是学乖的药。如果有一天别人拿你的
肩巾把你捆起来，好生揍你一顿，你就会领略到打扮成这份奴才相还扬扬得意是什
么滋味了。我倒想继续和你结交，至少认识你，这样你以后再出丑的时候，我可以
说：“那家伙我认识。”

    帕洛大人，您这样招惹我，真是忍无可忍。

    拉佛但愿我给你点起来的是地狱的烈火，可以把你烧个没完。可惜论我这个
年岁，是不能再叫你忍什么了，所以让我把这几根老骨头活动活动，就此告辞。
（下。）

    帕洛哼，你还有一个儿子，我一定要向他报复这场耻辱，这卑鄙龌龊的老官
儿！我且按下这口气，他们这些有权有势的人不是好惹的。要是我有了下手的机会，
不管他是怎么大的官儿，我一定要把他揍一顿，决不因为他有了年纪而饶过他。等
我下次碰见他的时候，非把他揍一顿不可！

    拉佛重上。

    拉佛喂，我告诉你一个消息，你的主人结了婚了，你有了一位新主妇啦。

    帕洛千万请求大人不要欺人太过，他是我的好长官，在我顶上我所服侍的才
是我的主人。

    拉佛谁？上帝吗？

    帕洛是的。

    拉佛魔鬼才是你的主人。为什么你要把带子在手臂上绑成这个样子？你把衣
袖当作袜管吗？人家的仆人也像你这样吗？你还是把你的鸡巴装在你鼻子的地方吧。
要是我再年轻一些儿，我一定要给你一顿好打；谁见了你都会生气，谁都应该打你
一顿；我看上帝造下你来的目的，是为给人家嘘气用的。

    帕洛大人，你这样无缘无故破口骂人，未免太不讲理啦。

    拉佛去你的吧，你在意大利因为从石榴里掏了一颗核，也被人家揍过。你是
个无赖浪人，哪里真正游历过，见过世面啊？不想想你自己的身分，胆敢在贵人面
前放肆无礼，对于你这种人真不值得多费唇舌，否则我可要骂你是个混账东西啦。
我不跟你多讲话了。（下。）

    帕洛好，很好，咱们瞧着吧。好，很好。现在我暂时不跟你算账。

    勃特拉姆重上。

    勃特拉姆完了，我永远倒霉了。

    帕洛什么事，好人儿？

    勃特拉姆我虽然已经在尊严的牧师面前起过誓，我却不愿跟她同床。

    帕洛什么，什么，好亲亲？

    勃特拉姆哼，帕洛，他们叫我结了婚啦！我要去参加都斯加战争去，永远不
跟她同床。

    帕洛法兰西是个狗窠，不是堂堂男子立足之处。从军去吧！

    勃特拉姆我母亲有信给我，我还不知道里面说些什么话。

    帕洛噢，那你看了就知道了。从军去吧，我的孩子！从军去吧！在家里抱抱
娇妻，把豪情壮志销磨在温柔乡里，不去驰骋疆场，建功立业，岂不埋没了自己的
前途？到别的地方去吧！法兰西是一个马棚，我们住在这里的都是些不中用的驽马。
还是从军去吧！

    勃特拉姆我一定这样办。我要叫她回到我的家里去，把我对她的嫌恶告知我
的母亲，说明我现在要出走到什么地方去。我还要把我当面不敢出口的话用书面禀
明王上；他给我的赏赐，正好供给我到意大利战场上去，和那些勇士们在一起作战，
与其闷在黑暗的家里，和一个可厌的妻子终日相对，还不如冲锋陷阵，死也死得痛
快一些。

    帕洛你现在乘着一时之兴，将来会不会反悔？你有这样的决心吗？

    勃特拉姆跟我到我的寓所去，帮我出些主意。我可以马上打发她动身，明天
我就上战场，让她守活寡去。

    帕洛啊，你倒不是放空炮，那好极了。一个结了婚的青年是个泄了气的汉子，
勇敢地丢弃了她，去吧。不瞒你说，国王真是亏待了你。（同下。）

SCENE IV. Paris. The KING's palace.

Enter HELENA and Clown
HELENA
My mother greets me kindly; is she well?
Clown
She is not well; but yet she has her health: she's
very merry; but yet she is not well: but thanks be
given, she's very well and wants nothing i', the
world; but yet she is not well.
HELENA
If she be very well, what does she ail, that she's
not very well?
Clown
Truly, she's very well indeed, but for two things.
HELENA
What two things?
Clown
One, that she's not in heaven, whither God send her
quickly! the other that she's in earth, from whence
God send her quickly!
Enter PAROLLES

PAROLLES
Bless you, my fortunate lady!
HELENA
I hope, sir, I have your good will to have mine own
good fortunes.
PAROLLES
You had my prayers to lead them on; and to keep them
on, have them still. O, my knave, how does my old lady?
Clown
So that you had her wrinkles and I her money,
I would she did as you say.
PAROLLES
Why, I say nothing.
Clown
Marry, you are the wiser man; for many a man's
tongue shakes out his master's undoing: to say
nothing, to do nothing, to know nothing, and to have
nothing, is to be a great part of your title; which
is within a very little of nothing.
PAROLLES
Away! thou'rt a knave.
Clown
You should have said, sir, before a knave thou'rt a
knave; that's, before me thou'rt a knave: this had
been truth, sir.
PAROLLES
Go to, thou art a witty fool; I have found thee.
Clown
Did you find me in yourself, sir? or were you
taught to find me? The search, sir, was profitable;
and much fool may you find in you, even to the
world's pleasure and the increase of laughter.
PAROLLES
A good knave, i' faith, and well fed.
Madam, my lord will go away to-night;
A very serious business calls on him.
The great prerogative and rite of love,
Which, as your due, time claims, he does acknowledge;
But puts it off to a compell'd restraint;
Whose want, and whose delay, is strew'd with sweets,
Which they distil now in the curbed time,
To make the coming hour o'erflow with joy
And pleasure drown the brim.
HELENA
What's his will else?
PAROLLES
That you will take your instant leave o' the king
And make this haste as your own good proceeding,
Strengthen'd with what apology you think
May make it probable need.
HELENA
What more commands he?
PAROLLES
That, having this obtain'd, you presently
Attend his further pleasure.
HELENA
In every thing I wait upon his will.
PAROLLES
I shall report it so.
HELENA
I pray you.
Exit PAROLLES

Come, sirrah.
Exeunt

第四场同前。宫中另一室

    海丽娜及小丑上。

    海丽娜我的婆婆很关心我。她老人家身体好吗？

    小丑不算好，但是还算硬朗；兴致很高，但是身体不好。不，感谢上帝，她
身体很好，什么都不缺；不，她身体不好。

    海丽娜要是她身体很好，那么犯了什么毛病又叫她身体不好了呢？

    小丑说真的，她身体很好，只有两件事不顺心。

    海丽娜哪两件事？

    小丑一：她还没升天，愿上帝快些送她去。二：她还在人世，愿上帝叫她快
些离开。

    帕洛上。

    帕洛祝福您，幸运的夫人！

    海丽娜但愿如你所说，我能够得到幸运。

    帕洛我愿意为您祈祷，愿您诸事顺利，永远幸福。啊，好小子！我们那位老
太太好吗？

    小丑要是把她的皱纹给了你，把她的钱给了我，我愿她像你所说的一样。

    帕洛我没有说什么呀。

    小丑对了，所以你是个聪明人；因为舌头往往是败事的祸根。不说什么，不
做什么，不知道什么，也没有什么，就可以使你受用不了什么。

    帕洛滚开！你这混蛋。

    小丑先生，你应该说：“气死混蛋的混蛋！”也就是“气死我的混蛋！”那
就对了。

    帕洛你这傻子就会耍嘴皮，你那一套我早摸透了。

    小丑你是从自己身上把我摸透的吗，先生，还是别人教你的？你应该好好摸
摸，从你身上多摸出几个傻瓜来，可以叫世界上的人多取乐，多笑笑。

    帕洛倒是个聪明的傻瓜，脑满肠肥的。夫人，爵爷因为有要事，今晚就要动
身出去。他很不愿剥夺您在新婚燕尔之夕应享的权利，可是因为迫不得已，只好缓
日向您补叙欢情。良会匪遥，请夫人暂忍目前，等待将来别后重逢的无边欢乐吧。

    海丽娜他还有什么吩咐？

    帕洛他说您必须立刻向王上辞别，设法找出一个可以使王上相信的理由来，
能够动身得越快越好。

    海丽娜此外还有什么命令？

    帕洛他叫您照此而行，静候后命。

    海丽娜我一切都遵照他的意旨。

    帕洛好，我就这样回复他。

    海丽娜劳驾你啦。来，小子。（各下。）

SCENE V. Paris. The KING's palace.

Enter LAFEU and BERTRAM
LAFEU
But I hope your lordship thinks not him a soldier.
BERTRAM
Yes, my lord, and of very valiant approof.
LAFEU
You have it from his own deliverance.
BERTRAM
And by other warranted testimony.
LAFEU
Then my dial goes not true: I took this lark for a bunting.
BERTRAM
I do assure you, my lord, he is very great in
knowledge and accordingly valiant.
LAFEU
I have then sinned against his experience and
transgressed against his valour; and my state that
way is dangerous, since I cannot yet find in my
heart to repent. Here he comes: I pray you, make
us friends; I will pursue the amity.
Enter PAROLLES

PAROLLES
[To BERTRAM] These things shall be done, sir.
LAFEU
Pray you, sir, who's his tailor?
PAROLLES
Sir?
LAFEU
O, I know him well, I, sir; he, sir, 's a good
workman, a very good tailor.
BERTRAM
[Aside to PAROLLES] Is she gone to the king?
PAROLLES
She is.
BERTRAM
Will she away to-night?
PAROLLES
As you'll have her.
BERTRAM
I have writ my letters, casketed my treasure,
Given order for our horses; and to-night,
When I should take possession of the bride,
End ere I do begin.
LAFEU
A good traveller is something at the latter end of a
dinner; but one that lies three thirds and uses a
known truth to pass a thousand nothings with, should
be once heard and thrice beaten. God save you, captain.
BERTRAM
Is there any unkindness between my lord and you, monsieur?
PAROLLES
I know not how I have deserved to run into my lord's
displeasure.
LAFEU
You have made shift to run into 't, boots and spurs
and all, like him that leaped into the custard; and
out of it you'll run again, rather than suffer
question for your residence.
BERTRAM
It may be you have mistaken him, my lord.
LAFEU
And shall do so ever, though I took him at 's
prayers. Fare you well, my lord; and believe this
of me, there can be no kernel in this light nut; the
soul of this man is his clothes. Trust him not in
matter of heavy consequence; I have kept of them
tame, and know their natures. Farewell, monsieur:
I have spoken better of you than you have or will to
deserve at my hand; but we must do good against evil.
Exit

PAROLLES
An idle lord. I swear.
BERTRAM
I think so.
PAROLLES
Why, do you not know him?
BERTRAM
Yes, I do know him well, and common speech
Gives him a worthy pass. Here comes my clog.
Enter HELENA

HELENA
I have, sir, as I was commanded from you,
Spoke with the king and have procured his leave
For present parting; only he desires
Some private speech with you.
BERTRAM
I shall obey his will.
You must not marvel, Helen, at my course,
Which holds not colour with the time, nor does
The ministration and required office
On my particular. Prepared I was not
For such a business; therefore am I found
So much unsettled: this drives me to entreat you
That presently you take our way for home;
And rather muse than ask why I entreat you,
For my respects are better than they seem
And my appointments have in them a need
Greater than shows itself at the first view
To you that know them not. This to my mother:
Giving a letter

'Twill be two days ere I shall see you, so
I leave you to your wisdom.
HELENA
Sir, I can nothing say,
But that I am your most obedient servant.
BERTRAM
Come, come, no more of that.
HELENA
And ever shall
With true observance seek to eke out that
Wherein toward me my homely stars have fail'd
To equal my great fortune.
BERTRAM
Let that go:
My haste is very great: farewell; hie home.
HELENA
Pray, sir, your pardon.
BERTRAM
Well, what would you say?
HELENA
I am not worthy of the wealth I owe,
Nor dare I say 'tis mine, and yet it is;
But, like a timorous thief, most fain would steal
What law does vouch mine own.
BERTRAM
What would you have?
HELENA
Something; and scarce so much: nothing, indeed.
I would not tell you what I would, my lord:
Faith yes;
Strangers and foes do sunder, and not kiss.
BERTRAMI pray you, stay not, but in haste to horse.
HELENA
I shall not break your bidding, good my lord.
BERTRAM
Where are my other men, monsieur? Farewell.
Exit HELENA

Go thou toward home; where I will never come
Whilst I can shake my sword or hear the drum.
Away, and for our flight.
PAROLLES
Bravely, coragio!
Exeunt
第五场同前。另一室

    拉佛及勃特拉姆上。

    拉佛我希望大人不要把这人当作一个军人。

    勃特拉姆不，大人，他的确是一个军人，而且有很勇敢的名声。

    拉佛这是他自己告诉您的。

    勃特拉姆我还有其他方面的证明。

    拉佛那么也许是我看错了人，把这只鸿鹄看成了燕雀了。

    勃特拉姆我可以向大人保证，他是一个见多识广、而且很有胆量的人。

    拉佛那么我对于他的见识和胆量真是太失敬了，可是我却执迷不悟，因为心
里一点不觉得有抱歉的意思。他来了，请您给我们和解和解吧。我一定要进一步和
他结交。

    帕洛上。

    帕洛（向勃特拉姆）一切事情都照您的意思办理。

    拉佛请问，大人，谁是他的裁缝？

    帕洛大人？

    拉佛哦，我认识他。不错，“大人”，他手艺不坏，是个顶好的裁缝。

    勃特拉姆（向帕洛）她去见王上了吗？

    帕洛是的。

    勃特拉姆她今晚就动身吗？

    帕洛您要她什么时候走她就什么时候走。

    勃特拉姆我已经写好信，把贵重的东西装了箱，叫人把马也备好了；就在洞
房花烛的今夜，我要和她一刀两断。

    拉佛一个好的旅行者讲述他的见闻，可以在宴会上助兴；可是一个尽说谎话、
拾掇一两件大家知道的事实遮掩他的一千句废话的人，听见一次就该打他三次。上
帝保佑您，队长！

    勃特拉姆这位大人跟你有点儿不和吗？

    帕洛我不知道我在什么地方得罪了大人。

    拉佛你是浑身披挂，还带着马刺，硬要往我的怒火里闯；就像杂耍演员往蛋
糕里跳一样；可是我要揪住你问个底细，你准会跑得飞快。

    勃特拉姆大人，也许您对他有点儿误会吧。

    拉佛我永远不想了解他，就是对他的祈祷，我也有些怀疑。再见，大人，相
信我吧，这个轻壳果里是找不出核仁来的；这人的灵魂就在他的衣服上。不要信托
他重要的事情，这种家伙我豢养过很多，他们的性格我是知道的。再见，先生，我
并没有把你说得太难堪，照你这样的人，我应该把你狠狠骂一顿，可是我也犯不着
和小人计较了。（下。）

    帕洛真是一个混账的官儿。

    勃特拉姆我并不以为如此。

    帕洛啊，您还不知道他是个怎么样的人吗？

    勃特拉姆不，我跟他很熟悉，大家都说他是个好人。我的绊脚的东西来了。

    海丽娜上。

    海丽娜夫君，我已经遵照您的命令，见过王上，已蒙王上准许即日离京，可
是他还要叫您去作一次私人谈话。

    勃特拉姆我一定服从他的旨意。海伦，请你不要惊奇我这次行动的突兀，我
本不该在现在这样的时间匆匆远行，实在我自己在事先也毫无所知，所以弄得这样
手足失措。我必须恳求你立刻动身回家，也不要问我为什么我叫你这样做，虽然看
上去好像很奇怪，可是我是在详细考虑过了之后才这样决定的；你不知道我现在将
要去做一番什么事情，所以当然不知道它的性质是何等重要。这一封信请你带去给
我的母亲。（以信给海丽娜）我在两天之后再来看你，一切由你自己斟酌行事吧。

    海丽娜夫君，我没有什么话可以对您说，只是我是您的最恭顺的仆人。

    勃特拉姆算了，算了，那些话也不用说了。

    海丽娜今后我一定要尽力在各方面顺从你，借以弥补我卑微的出身和目前的
好运中间的距离。

    勃特拉姆算了吧，我现在匆促得很。再见，回家去吧。

    海丽娜夫君，请您恕我。

    勃特拉姆啊，你还有什么话说？

    海丽娜我不配拥有我所有的财富，我也不敢说它是我的，虽然它是属于我的；
我就像是一个胆小的窃贼，虽然法律已经把一份家产判给他，他还是想把它悄悄偷
走。

    勃特拉姆你想要些什么？

    海丽娜我的要求是极其微小的，实在也可以说毫无所求。夫君，我不愿告诉
您我要些什么。好吧，我说。陌路之人和仇敌们在分手的时候，是用不到亲吻的。

    勃特拉姆请你不要耽搁，赶快上马吧。

    海丽娜我决不违背您的嘱咐，夫君。

    勃特拉姆（向帕洛）还有那些人呢？（向海丽娜）再见。（海丽娜下）你回家
去吧；只要我的手臂能够挥舞刀剑，我的耳朵能够听辨鼓声，我是永不回家的了。
去！我们就此登程。

    帕洛好，放出勇气来！（同下。）

SCENE I. Florence. The DUKE's palace.

Flourish. Enter the DUKE of Florence attended; the two Frenchmen, with a troop of soldiers.
DUKE
So that from point to point now have you heard
The fundamental reasons of this war,
Whose great decision hath much blood let forth
And more thirsts after.
First Lord
Holy seems the quarrel
Upon your grace's part; black and fearful
On the opposer.
DUKE
Therefore we marvel much our cousin France
Would in so just a business shut his bosom
Against our borrowing prayers.
Second Lord
Good my lord,
The reasons of our state I cannot yield,
But like a common and an outward man,
That the great figure of a council frames
By self-unable motion: therefore dare not
Say what I think of it, since I have found
Myself in my incertain grounds to fail
As often as I guess'd.
DUKE
Be it his pleasure.
First Lord
But I am sure the younger of our nature,
That surfeit on their ease, will day by day
Come here for physic.
DUKE
Welcome shall they be;
And all the honours that can fly from us
Shall on them settle. You know your places well;
When better fall, for your avails they fell:
To-morrow to the field.
Flourish. Exeunt

第三幕

    第一场弗罗棱萨。公爵府中一室

    喇叭奏花腔。公爵率侍从、二法国廷臣及兵士等上。

    公爵现在你们已经详详细细知道了这次战争的根本原因，无数的血已经为此
而流，以后兵连祸结，更不知何日是了。

    臣甲殿下这次出师，的确是名正言顺，而在敌人方面，也太过于暴虐无道了。

    公爵所以我很诧异我们的法兰西王兄对于我们这次堂堂正正的义师，竟会拒
绝给我们援手。

    臣甲殿下，国家政令的决定，不是个人好恶所能左右，小臣地位卑微，更不
敢妄加臆测，因为既然没有充分的根据，猜度也是枉然。

    公爵既然贵国这样决定，我们当然也不便强人所难。

    臣乙可是小臣相信在敝国有许多青年朝士，因为厌于安乐，一定会陆续前来，
为贵邦效命的。

    公爵那我们一定非常欢迎，他们一定将在我们这里享受最隆重的礼遇。两位
既然迢迢来此，诚心投效，就请各就部位；将来有什么优缺，一定首先提拔你们。
明天我们就要整队出发了。（喇叭奏花腔。众下。）

SCENE II. Rousillon. The COUNT's palace.

Enter COUNTESS and Clown
COUNTESS
It hath happened all as I would have had it, save
that he comes not along with her.
Clown
By my troth, I take my young lord to be a very
melancholy man.
COUNTESS
By what observance, I pray you?
Clown
Why, he will look upon his boot and sing; mend the
ruff and sing; ask questions and sing; pick his
teeth and sing. I know a man that had this trick of
melancholy sold a goodly manor for a song.
COUNTESS
Let me see what he writes, and when he means to come.
Opening a letter

Clown
I have no mind to Isbel since I was at court: our
old ling and our Isbels o' the country are nothing
like your old ling and your Isbels o' the court:
the brains of my Cupid's knocked out, and I begin to
love, as an old man loves money, with no stomach.
COUNTESS
What have we here?
Clown
E'en that you have there.
Exit

COUNTESS
[Reads] I have sent you a daughter-in-law: she hath
recovered the king, and undone me. I have wedded
her, not bedded her; and sworn to make the 'not'
eternal. You shall hear I am run away: know it
before the report come. If there be breadth enough
in the world, I will hold a long distance. My duty
to you.    Your unfortunate son,
BERTRAM.
This is not well, rash and unbridled boy.
To fly the favours of so good a king;
To pluck his indignation on thy head
By the misprising of a maid too virtuous
For the contempt of empire.
Re-enter Clown

Clown
O madam, yonder is heavy news within between two
soldiers and my young lady!
COUNTESS
What is the matter?
Clown
Nay, there is some comfort in the news, some
comfort; your son will not be killed so soon as I
thought he would.
COUNTESS
Why should he be killed?
Clown
So say I, madam, if he run away, as I hear he does:
the danger is in standing to't; that's the loss of
men, though it be the getting of children. Here
they come will tell you more: for my part, I only
hear your son was run away.
Exit

Enter HELENA, and two Gentlemen

First Gentleman
Save you, good madam.
HELENA
Madam, my lord is gone, for ever gone.
Second Gentleman
Do not say so.
COUNTESS
Think upon patience. Pray you, gentlemen,
I have felt so many quirks of joy and grief,
That the first face of neither, on the start,
Can woman me unto't: where is my son, I pray you?
Second Gentleman
Madam, he's gone to serve the duke of Florence:
We met him thitherward; for thence we came,
And, after some dispatch in hand at court,
Thither we bend again.
HELENA
Look on his letter, madam; here's my passport.
Reads

When thou canst get the ring upon my finger which
never shall come off, and show me a child begotten
of thy body that I am father to, then call me
husband: but in such a 'then' I write a 'never.'
This is a dreadful sentence.
COUNTESS
Brought you this letter, gentlemen?
First Gentleman
Ay, madam;
And for the contents' sake are sorry for our pain.
COUNTESS
I prithee, lady, have a better cheer;
If thou engrossest all the griefs are thine,
Thou robb'st me of a moiety: he was my son;
But I do wash his name out of my blood,
And thou art all my child. Towards Florence is he?
Second Gentleman
Ay, madam.
COUNTESS
And to be a soldier?
Second Gentleman
Such is his noble purpose; and believe 't,
The duke will lay upon him all the honour
That good convenience claims.
COUNTESS
Return you thither?
First Gentleman
Ay, madam, with the swiftest wing of speed.
HELENA
[Reads] Till I have no wife I have nothing in France.
'Tis bitter.
COUNTESS
Find you that there?
HELENA
Ay, madam.
First Gentleman
'Tis but the boldness of his hand, haply, which his
heart was not consenting to.
COUNTESS
Nothing in France, until he have no wife!
There's nothing here that is too good for him
But only she; and she deserves a lord
That twenty such rude boys might tend upon
And call her hourly mistress. Who was with him?
First Gentleman
A servant only, and a gentleman
Which I have sometime known.
COUNTESS
Parolles, was it not?
First Gentleman
Ay, my good lady, he.
COUNTESS
A very tainted fellow, and full of wickedness.
My son corrupts a well-derived nature
With his inducement.
First Gentleman
Indeed, good lady,
The fellow has a deal of that too much,
Which holds him much to have.
COUNTESS
You're welcome, gentlemen.
I will entreat you, when you see my son,
To tell him that his sword can never win
The honour that he loses: more I'll entreat you
Written to bear along.
Second Gentleman
We serve you, madam,
In that and all your worthiest affairs.
COUNTESS
Not so, but as we change our courtesies.
Will you draw near!
Exeunt COUNTESS and Gentlemen

HELENA
'Till I have no wife, I have nothing in France.'
Nothing in France, until he has no wife!
Thou shalt have none, Rousillon, none in France;
Then hast thou all again. Poor lord! is't I
That chase thee from thy country and expose
Those tender limbs of thine to the event
Of the none-sparing war? and is it I
That drive thee from the sportive court, where thou
Wast shot at with fair eyes, to be the mark
Of smoky muskets? O you leaden messengers,
That ride upon the violent speed of fire,
Fly with false aim; move the still-peering air,
That sings with piercing; do not touch my lord.
Whoever shoots at him, I set him there;
Whoever charges on his forward breast,
I am the caitiff that do hold him to't;
And, though I kill him not, I am the cause
His death was so effected: better 'twere
I met the ravin lion when he roar'd
With sharp constraint of hunger; better 'twere
That all the miseries which nature owes
Were mine at once. No, come thou home, Rousillon,
Whence honour but of danger wins a scar,
As oft it loses all: I will be gone;
My being here it is that holds thee hence:
Shall I stay here to do't? no, no, although
The air of paradise did fan the house
And angels officed all: I will be gone,
That pitiful rumour may report my flight,
To consolate thine ear. Come, night; end, day!
For with the dark, poor thief, I'll steal away.

第二场罗西昂。伯爵夫人府中一室

    伯爵夫人及小丑上。

    伯爵夫人一切事情都适如我的愿望，唯一的遗憾，是他没有陪着她一起回来。

    小丑我看我们那位小爵爷心里很有点儿不痛快呢。

    伯爵夫人请问何以见得？

    小丑他在低头看着靴子的时候也会唱歌；拉正绉领的时候也会唱歌；向人家
问话的时候也会唱歌；剔牙齿的时候也会唱歌。我知道有一个人在心里不痛快的时
候也有这种脾气，曾经把一座大庄子半卖半送地给了人家呢。

    伯爵夫人（拆信）让我看看他信里写些什么，几时可以回来。

    小丑我自从到了京城以后，对于伊丝贝尔的这颗心就冷了起来。咱们乡下的
咸鱼没有京城里的咸鱼好，咱们乡下的姑娘也比不上京城里的姑娘俏。我对于恋爱
已经失去了兴趣，正像老年人把钱财看作身外之物一样。

    伯爵夫人啊，这是什么话？



    小丑您自己看是什么话吧。（下。）

    伯爵夫人（读信）“儿已遣新妇回家，渠即为国王疗疾之人，而令儿终天抱恨
者也。儿虽被迫完婚，未尝与共枕席；有生之日，誓不与之同处。儿今已亡命出奔，
度此信到后不久，消息亦必将达于吾母耳中矣。从此远离乡土，永作他乡之客，幸
母勿以儿为念。不幸儿勃特拉姆上。”岂有此理，这个卤莽倔强的孩子，这样一个
帝王也不敢轻视的贤惠的妻子还不中他的意，竟敢拒绝王上的深恩，不怕激起他的
嗔怒，真太不成话了！

    小丑重上。

    小丑啊，夫人！那边有两个将官护送着少夫人，带着不好的消息来了。

    伯爵夫人什么事？

    小丑不，还好，还好，少爷还不会马上就送命。

    伯爵夫人他为什么要送命？

    小丑我也这样说哪，夫人——我听说他逃了，那就不会送命了；只有呆着不
走才是危险的；许多男人都是那样丢了性命，虽然也弄出不少孩子来。他们来了，
让他们告诉您吧；我只听见说少爷逃走了。（下。）

    海丽娜及二臣上。

    臣甲您好，夫人。

    海丽娜妈，我的主去了，一去不回了！

    臣乙别那么说。

    伯爵夫人你耐着点儿吧。对不起，两位，我已经尝惯人世的悲欢苦乐；因此
不论什么突如其来的事变，也不能使我软下心来，流泪哭泣。请问两位，我的儿子
呢？

    臣乙夫人，他去帮助弗罗棱萨公爵作战去了，我们碰见他往那边去的。我们
刚从弗罗棱萨来，在朝廷里办好了一些差事，仍旧要回去的。

    海丽娜妈，请您瞧瞧这封信，这就是他给我的凭证：“汝倘能得余永不离手
之指环，且能腹孕一子，确为余之骨肉者，始可称余为夫；然余可断言永无此一日
也。”这是一个可怕的判决！

    伯爵夫人这封信是他请你们两位带来的吗？

    臣甲是的，夫人；我们很抱歉，因为它使你们看了不高兴。

    伯爵夫人媳妇，你不要太难过了；要是你把一切的伤心都归在你一个人身上，
那么你就把我应当分担的一部分也夺去了。他虽然是我的儿子，我从此和他断绝母
子的情分，你是我的唯一的孩子了。他是到弗罗棱萨去的吗？

    臣乙是的，夫人。

    伯爵夫人是从军去吗？

    臣乙这是他的英勇的志愿；相信我吧，公爵一定会依照他的身分对他十分看
重的。

    伯爵夫人二位还要回到那里去吗？

    臣甲是的，夫人，我们要尽快赶回去。

    海丽娜“余一日有妻在法兰西，法兰西即一日无足以令余眷恋之物。”好狠心
的话！

    伯爵夫人这些话也是在那信里的吗？

    海丽娜是的，妈。

    臣甲这不过是他一时信笔写下去的话，并不是真有这样的心思。

    伯爵夫人“一日有妻在法兰西，法兰西即一日无足以令余眷恋之物”！法兰西
没有什么东西比你的妻子更被你所辱没了；她是应该嫁给一位堂堂贵人，让二十个
像你这样无礼的孩子供她驱使，在她面前太太长、太太短地小心侍候。谁和他在一
起？

    臣甲他只有一个跟班，那个人我也跟他有一点认识。

    伯爵夫人是帕洛吗？

    臣甲是的，夫人，正是他。

    伯爵夫人那是一个名誉扫地的坏东西。我的儿子受了他的引诱，把他高贵的
天性都染坏了。

    臣甲是啊，夫人，他确是倚靠花言巧语的诱惑，才取得了公子的欢心。

    伯爵夫人两位远道来此，恕我招待不周。要是你们看见小儿，还要请你们为
我向他寄语，他的剑是永远赎不回他所已经失去的荣誉的。我还有一封信，写了要
托两位带去。

    臣乙夫人但有所命，鄙人等敢不效劳。

    伯爵夫人两位太言重了。里边请坐吧。（夫人及二臣下。）

    海丽娜“余一日有妻在法兰西，法兰西即一日无足以令余眷恋之物。”法兰西
没有可以使他眷恋的东西，除非他在法兰西没有妻子！罗西昂伯爵，你将在法兰西
没有妻子，那时你就可以重新得到你所眷恋的一切了。可怜的人！难道是我把你逐
出祖国，让你那娇生惯养的身体去当受无情的战火吗？难道是我害你远离风流逸乐
的宫廷，使你再也感受不到含情的美目对你投射的箭镞，却一变而成为冒烟的熗炮
的鹄的吗？乘着火力在天空中横飞的弹丸呀，愿你们能够落空；让空气中充满着你
们穿过气流而发出的歌声吧，但不要接触到我的丈夫的身体！谁要是射中了他，我
就是主使暴徒行凶的祸首；谁要是向他奋不顾身的胸前挥动兵刃的，我就是陷他于
死地的巨恶；虽然我不曾亲手把他杀死，他却是由我而死。我宁愿让我的身体去膏
饿狮的馋吻，我宁愿世间所有的惨痛集于我的一身。不，回来吧，罗西昂伯爵！不
要冒着丧失一切的危险，去换来一个光荣的创疤，我会离此而去的。既然你的不愿
回来，只是因为我在这里的缘故，难道我会继续留在这里吗？不，不，即使这屋子
里播满着天堂的香味，即使这里是天使们遨游的乐境，我也不能作一日之留。我一
去之后，我的出走的消息也许会传到你的耳中，使你得到安慰。快来吧，黑夜；快
快结束吧，白昼！因为我这可怜的贼子，要趁着黑暗悄悄溜走。（下。）

SCENE III. Florence. Before the DUKE's palace.

Flourish. Enter the DUKE of Florence, BERTRAM, PAROLLES, Soldiers, Drum, and Trumpets
DUKE
The general of our horse thou art; and we,
Great in our hope, lay our best love and credence
Upon thy promising fortune.
BERTRAM
Sir, it is
A charge too heavy for my strength, but yet
We'll strive to bear it for your worthy sake
To the extreme edge of hazard.
DUKE
Then go thou forth;
And fortune play upon thy prosperous helm,
As thy auspicious mistress!
BERTRAM
This very day,
Great Mars, I put myself into thy file:
Make me but like my thoughts, and I shall prove
A lover of thy drum, hater of love.
Exeunt第三场弗罗棱萨。公爵府前

    喇叭奏花腔。公爵、勃特拉姆、帕洛及兵士等上；鼓角声。

    公爵我们的马队归你全权统率，但愿你马到功成，不要有负我的厚望和重托。

    勃特拉姆多蒙殿下以这样重大的责任相加，只恐小臣能力微薄，难于胜任，
惟有誓竭忠忱，为殿下尽瘁，任何危险，在所不辞。

    公爵那么你就向前猛进吧，但愿命运照顾着你，做你的幸运的情人！

    勃特拉姆从今天起，伟大的战神，我投身在你的麾下，帮助我使我像我的思
想一样刚强，使我只爱听你的鼓声，厌恶那儿女的柔情。（同下。）

SCENE IV. Rousillon. The COUNT's palace.

Enter COUNTESS and Steward
COUNTESS
Alas! and would you take the letter of her?
Might you not know she would do as she has done,
By sending me a letter? Read it again.
Steward
[Reads]
I am Saint Jaques' pilgrim, thither gone:
Ambitious love hath so in me offended,
That barefoot plod I the cold ground upon,
With sainted vow my faults to have amended.
Write, write, that from the bloody course of war
My dearest master, your dear son, may hie:
Bless him at home in peace, whilst I from far
His name with zealous fervor sanctify:
His taken labours bid him me forgive;
I, his despiteful Juno, sent him forth
From courtly friends, with camping foes to live,
Where death and danger dogs the heels of worth:
He is too good and fair for death and me:
Whom I myself embrace, to set him free.
COUNTESS
Ah, what sharp stings are in her mildest words!
Rinaldo, you did never lack advice so much,
As letting her pass so: had I spoke with her,
I could have well diverted her intents,
Which thus she hath prevented.
Steward
Pardon me, madam:
If I had given you this at over-night,
She might have been o'erta'en; and yet she writes,
Pursuit would be but vain.
COUNTESS
What angel shall
Bless this unworthy husband? he cannot thrive,
Unless her prayers, whom heaven delights to hear
And loves to grant, reprieve him from the wrath
Of greatest justice. Write, write, Rinaldo,
To this unworthy husband of his wife;
Let every word weigh heavy of her worth
That he does weigh too light: my greatest grief.
Though little he do feel it, set down sharply.
Dispatch the most convenient messenger:
When haply he shall hear that she is gone,
He will return; and hope I may that she,
Hearing so much, will speed her foot again,
Led hither by pure love: which of them both
Is dearest to me. I have no skill in sense
To make distinction: provide this messenger:
My heart is heavy and mine age is weak;
Grief would have tears, and sorrow bids me speak.
Exeunt第四场罗西昂。伯爵夫人府中一室

    伯爵夫人及管家上。

    伯爵夫人唉！你就这样接下了她的信吗？你不知道她留给我一封书信，就是
表示要不别而行吗？再念一遍给我听。

    管家（读）

    为爱忘畛域，致触彼苍怒，

    赤足礼圣真，忏悔从头误。

    沙场有游子，日与死为伍，

    莫以薄命故，甘受锋镝苦。

    还君自由身，弃捐勿复道！

    慈母在高堂，归期须及早。

    为君注瓣香，祝君永康好，

    挥泪乞君恕，离别以终老。

    伯爵夫人啊，在她的最温婉的字句里，是藏着多么尖锐的刺！里那多，你问
也不问一声仔细就让她这样去了，真是糊涂透顶了。我要是能够当面用话劝劝她，
也许可以使她打消原来的计划，现在可来不及了。

    管家小的真是该死，要是把这封信昨夜就送给夫人，也许还可以把她追回来，
现在就是去追也是白追的了。

    伯爵夫人哪一个天使愿意祝福这个无情无义的丈夫呢？像他这样的人，是终
身不会发达的，除非因为上苍喜欢听她的祷告，乐意答应她的祈愿，才会赦免他那
弥天的大罪。里那多，赶快替我写信给这位好妻子的坏丈夫，每一字每一句都要证
明她的贤德，来反衬出他自己的薄情；我心里的忧虑悲哀，虽然他一点不曾感觉到，
你也要给我切切实实地写在信上。尽快把这封信寄出去，也许他听见了她已经出走，
就会回到家里来；我还希望她知道他已经回来，纯洁的爱情也会领导她重新回来。
我分别不出他们两个人之中，谁是我所最疼爱的。快去把送信人找来。我的心因忧
伤而沉重，年龄使我变成这样软弱，我不知道应该流泪呢，还是向人诉述我的悲哀。
（同下。）

SCENE V. Florence. Without the walls. A tucket afar off.

Enter an old Widow of Florence, DIANA, VIOLENTA, and MARIANA, with other Citizens
Widow
Nay, come; for if they do approach the city, we
shall lose all the sight.
DIANA
They say the French count has done most honourable service.
Widow
It is reported that he has taken their greatest
commander; and that with his own hand he slew the
duke's brother.
Tucket

We have lost our labour; they are gone a contrary
way: hark! you may know by their trumpets.
MARIANA
Come, let's return again, and suffice ourselves with
the report of it. Well, Diana, take heed of this
French earl: the honour of a maid is her name; and
no legacy is so rich as honesty.
Widow
I have told my neighbour how you have been solicited
by a gentleman his companion.
MARIANA
I know that knave; hang him! one Parolles: a
filthy officer he is in those suggestions for the
young earl. Beware of them, Diana; their promises,
enticements, oaths, tokens, and all these engines of
lust, are not the things they go under: many a maid
hath been seduced by them; and the misery is,
example, that so terrible shows in the wreck of
maidenhood, cannot for all that dissuade succession,
but that they are limed with the twigs that threaten
them. I hope I need not to advise you further; but
I hope your own grace will keep you where you are,
though there were no further danger known but the
modesty which is so lost.
DIANA
You shall not need to fear me.
Widow
I hope so.
Enter HELENA, disguised like a Pilgrim

Look, here comes a pilgrim: I know she will lie at
my house; thither they send one another: I'll
question her. God save you, pilgrim! whither are you bound?
HELENA
To Saint Jaques le Grand.
Where do the palmers lodge, I do beseech you?
Widow
At the Saint Francis here beside the port.
HELENA
Is this the way?
Widow
Ay, marry, is't.
A march afar

Hark you! they come this way.
If you will tarry, holy pilgrim,
But till the troops come by,
I will conduct you where you shall be lodged;
The rather, for I think I know your hostess
As ample as myself.
HELENA
Is it yourself?
Widow
If you shall please so, pilgrim.
HELENA
I thank you, and will stay upon your leisure.
Widow
You came, I think, from France?
HELENA
I did so.
Widow
Here you shall see a countryman of yours
That has done worthy service.
HELENA
His name, I pray you.
DIANA
The Count Rousillon: know you such a one?
HELENA
But by the ear, that hears most nobly of him:
His face I know not.
DIANA
Whatsome'er he is,
He's bravely taken here. He stole from France,
As 'tis reported, for the king had married him
Against his liking: think you it is so?
HELENA
Ay, surely, mere the truth: I know his lady.
DIANA
There is a gentleman that serves the count
Reports but coarsely of her.
HELENA
What's his name?
DIANA
Monsieur Parolles.
HELENA
O, I believe with him,
In argument of praise, or to the worth
Of the great count himself, she is too mean
To have her name repeated: all her deserving
Is a reserved honesty, and that
I have not heard examined.
DIANA
Alas, poor lady!
'Tis a hard bondage to become the wife
Of a detesting lord.
Widow
I warrant, good creature, wheresoe'er she is,
Her heart weighs sadly: this young maid might do her
A shrewd turn, if she pleased.
HELENA
How do you mean?
May be the amorous count solicits her
In the unlawful purpose.
Widow
He does indeed;
And brokes with all that can in such a suit
Corrupt the tender honour of a maid:
But she is arm'd for him and keeps her guard
In honestest defence.
MARIANA
The gods forbid else!
Widow
So, now they come:
Drum and Colours

Enter BERTRAM, PAROLLES, and the whole army

That is Antonio, the duke's eldest son;
That, Escalus.
HELENA
Which is the Frenchman?
DIANA
He;
That with the plume: 'tis a most gallant fellow.
I would he loved his wife: if he were honester
He were much goodlier: is't not a handsome gentleman?
HELENA
I like him well.
DIANA
'Tis pity he is not honest: yond's that same knave
That leads him to these places: were I his lady,
I would Poison that vile rascal.
HELENA
Which is he?
DIANA
That jack-an-apes with scarfs: why is he melancholy?
HELENA
Perchance he's hurt i' the battle.
PAROLLES
Lose our drum! well.
MARIANA
He's shrewdly vexed at something: look, he has spied us.
Widow
Marry, hang you!
MARIANA
And your courtesy, for a ring-carrier!
Exeunt BERTRAM, PAROLLES, and army

Widow
The troop is past. Come, pilgrim, I will bring you
Where you shall host: of enjoin'd penitents
There's four or five, to great Saint Jaques bound,
Already at my house.
HELENA
I humbly thank you:
Please it this matron and this gentle maid
To eat with us to-night, the charge and thanking
Shall be for me; and, to requite you further,
I will bestow some precepts of this virgin
Worthy the note.
BOTH
We'll take your offer kindly.
Exeunt第五场弗罗棱萨城外

    远处号角声。弗罗棱萨一寡妇、狄安娜、薇奥兰塔、玛利安娜及其他市民上。

    寡妇快来吧，要是他们到了城门口，咱们就瞧不见啦。

    狄安娜他们说那个法国伯爵立了很大的功劳。

    寡妇听说他捉住了他们的主将，还亲手杀死他们公爵的兄弟。倒霉！咱们白
赶了一趟，他们往另外一条路上去了；听！他们的喇叭声越来越远啦。

    玛利安娜来，咱们回去吧，看不见就听人家说说也好。喂，狄安娜，你留心
这个法国伯爵吧；贞操是处女唯一的光荣，名节是妇人最大的遗产。

    寡妇我已经告诉我的邻居他的一个同伴曾经来作过说客。

    玛利安娜我认识那个坏蛋死东西！他的名字就叫帕洛，是个卑鄙龌龊的军官，
那个年轻伯爵就是给他诱坏的。留心着他们吧，狄安娜！他们的许愿、引诱、盟誓、
礼物以及这一类煽动情欲的东西，都是害人的圈套，不少的姑娘们都已经上过他们
的当了；最可怜的是，这种身败名裂的可怕的前车之鉴，却不曾使后来的人知道警
戒，仍旧一个个如蚊附膻，至死不悟，真可令人叹息。我希望我不必给你更多的劝
告，但愿你自己能够立定主意，即使除去失掉贞操之外，别无任何其他危险。

    狄安娜你放心吧，我不会上人家当的。

    寡妇但愿如此。瞧，一个进香的人来了；我知道她会住在我的客店里的，来
来往往的进香人都向朋友介绍我的客店。让我去问她一声。

    海丽娜作进香人装束上。

    寡妇上帝保佑您，进香人！您要到哪儿去？

    海丽娜到圣约克·勒·格朗。请问您，朝拜圣地的人都是在什么地方住宿的？

    寡妇在圣法兰西斯，就在这港口的近旁。

    海丽娜是不是打这条路过去的？

    寡妇正是，一点不错。你听！（远处军队行进声）他们往这儿来了。进香客
人，您要是在这儿等一下，等军队过去以后，我就可以领您到下宿的地方去。特别
是因为我认识那家客店的女主人，正像认识我自己一样。

    海丽娜原来大娘就是店主太太吗？

    寡妇岂敢岂敢。

    海丽娜多谢您的好意，那么有劳您啦。

    寡妇我看您是从法国来的吧？

    海丽娜是的。

    寡妇您可以在这儿碰见一个同国之人，他曾经在弗罗棱萨立下很大的功劳。

    海丽娜请教他姓甚名谁？

    寡妇他就是罗西昂伯爵。您认识这样一个人吗？

    海丽娜但闻其名，不识其面，他的名誉很好。

    狄安娜不管他是一个何等样人，他在这里是很出风头的。据说他从法国出亡
来此，因为国王强迫他跟一个他所不喜欢的女人结婚。您想会有这回事吗？

    海丽娜是的，真有这回事；他的夫人我也认识。

    狄安娜有一个跟随这位伯爵的人，对她的批评不是顶好。

    海丽娜他叫什么名字？

    狄安娜他叫帕洛。

    海丽娜啊！我完全同意他的意见，若论声誉和身价，和那位伯爵那样的大人
物比较起来，她的名字的确是不值得挂齿的。她唯一的好处，只有她的贞静、缄默，
我还不曾听见人家在这方面讥议过她。

    狄安娜唉，可怜的女人！做一个失爱于夫主的妻子，真够受罪了。

    寡妇是啦；好人儿，她无论在什么地方，她的心永远是载满了凄凉的。这小
妮子要是愿意，也可以做一件对她不起的事呢。

    海丽娜您这句话是什么意思？是不是这个好色的伯爵想要勾引她？

    寡妇他确有这个意思，曾经用尽各种手段想要破坏她的贞操，可是她对他戒
备森严，绝不让他稍有下手的机会。

    玛利安娜神明保佑她守身如玉！

    弗罗棱萨兵士一队上，旗鼓前导，勃特拉姆及帕洛亦列队中。

    寡妇瞧，现在他们来了。那个是安东尼奥，公爵的长子；那个是埃斯卡勒斯。

    海丽娜那法国人呢？

    狄安娜他；那个帽子上插着羽毛的，他是一个很有气派的家伙。我希望他爱
他的妻子；他要是老实一点，就会显得更漂亮了。他不是一个很俊的男人吗？

    海丽娜我很喜欢他。

    狄安娜可惜他太不老实。那一个就是诱他为非作恶的坏家伙；倘然我是他的
妻子，我一定要用毒药毒死那个混账东西。

    海丽娜哪一个是他？

    狄安娜就是披着肩巾的那个鬼家伙。他为什么好像闷闷不乐似的？

    海丽娜也许他在战场上受了伤了。

    帕洛把我们的鼓也丢了！哼！

    玛利安娜他好像有些心事。瞧，他看见我们啦。

    寡妇嘿，死东西！

    玛利安娜谁希罕你那些鬼殷勤儿！（勃特拉姆、帕洛、军官及兵士等下。）

    寡妇军队已经过去了。来，进香客人，让我领您到下宿的地方去。咱们店里
已经住下了四五个修行人，他们都是去朝拜伟大的圣约克的。

    海丽娜多谢多谢。今晚我还想作个东道，请这位嫂子和这位好姑娘陪我们一
起吃饭；为了进一步答报你，我还要给这位小姐讲一些值得她听取的道理。

    玛利安娜

    狄安娜谢谢您，我们一定奉陪。（同下。）

SCENE VI. Camp before Florence.

Enter BERTRAM and the two French Lords
Second Lord
Nay, good my lord, put him to't; let him have his
way.
First Lord
If your lordship find him not a hilding, hold me no
more in your respect.
Second Lord
On my life, my lord, a bubble.
BERTRAM
Do you think I am so far deceived in him?
Second Lord
Believe it, my lord, in mine own direct knowledge,
without any malice, but to speak of him as my
kinsman, he's a most notable coward, an infinite and
endless liar, an hourly promise-breaker, the owner
of no one good quality worthy your lordship's
entertainment.
First Lord
It were fit you knew him; lest, reposing too far in
his virtue, which he hath not, he might at some
great and trusty business in a main danger fail you.
BERTRAM
I would I knew in what particular action to try him.
First Lord
None better than to let him fetch off his drum,
which you hear him so confidently undertake to do.
Second Lord
I, with a troop of Florentines, will suddenly
surprise him; such I will have, whom I am sure he
knows not from the enemy: we will bind and hoodwink
him so, that he shall suppose no other but that he
is carried into the leaguer of the adversaries, when
we bring him to our own tents. Be but your lordship
present at his examination: if he do not, for the
promise of his life and in the highest compulsion of
base fear, offer to betray you and deliver all the
intelligence in his power against you, and that with
the divine forfeit of his soul upon oath, never
trust my judgment in any thing.
First Lord
O, for the love of laughter, let him fetch his drum;
he says he has a stratagem for't: when your
lordship sees the bottom of his success in't, and to
what metal this counterfeit lump of ore will be
melted, if you give him not John Drum's
entertainment, your inclining cannot be removed.
Here he comes.
Enter PAROLLES

Second Lord
[Aside to BERTRAM] O, for the love of laughter,
hinder not the honour of his design: let him fetch
off his drum in any hand.
BERTRAM
How now, monsieur! this drum sticks sorely in your
disposition.
First Lord
A pox on't, let it go; 'tis but a drum.
PAROLLES
'But a drum'! is't 'but a drum'? A drum so lost!
There was excellent command,--to charge in with our
horse upon our own wings, and to rend our own soldiers!
First Lord
That was not to be blamed in the command of the
service: it was a disaster of war that Caesar
himself could not have prevented, if he had been
there to command.
BERTRAM
Well, we cannot greatly condemn our success: some
dishonour we had in the loss of that drum; but it is
not to be recovered.
PAROLLES
It might have been recovered.
BERTRAM
It might; but it is not now.
PAROLLES
It is to be recovered: but that the merit of
service is seldom attributed to the true and exact
performer, I would have that drum or another, or
'hic jacet.'
BERTRAM
Why, if you have a stomach, to't, monsieur: if you
think your mystery in stratagem can bring this
instrument of honour again into his native quarter,
be magnanimous in the enterprise and go on; I will
grace the attempt for a worthy exploit: if you
speed well in it, the duke shall both speak of it.
and extend to you what further becomes his
greatness, even to the utmost syllable of your
worthiness.
PAROLLES
By the hand of a soldier, I will undertake it.
BERTRAM
But you must not now slumber in it.
PAROLLES
I'll about it this evening: and I will presently
pen down my dilemmas, encourage myself in my
certainty, put myself into my mortal preparation;
and by midnight look to hear further from me.
BERTRAM
May I be bold to acquaint his grace you are gone about it?
PAROLLES
I know not what the success will be, my lord; but
the attempt I vow.
BERTRAM
I know thou'rt valiant; and, to the possibility of
thy soldiership, will subscribe for thee. Farewell.
PAROLLES
I love not many words.
Exit

Second Lord
No more than a fish loves water. Is not this a
strange fellow, my lord, that so confidently seems
to undertake this business, which he knows is not to
be done; damns himself to do and dares better be
damned than to do't?
First Lord
You do not know him, my lord, as we do: certain it
is that he will steal himself into a man's favour and
for a week escape a great deal of discoveries; but
when you find him out, you have him ever after.
BERTRAM
Why, do you think he will make no deed at all of
this that so seriously he does address himself unto?
Second Lord
None in the world; but return with an invention and
clap upon you two or three probable lies: but we
have almost embossed him; you shall see his fall
to-night; for indeed he is not for your lordship's respect.
First Lord
We'll make you some sport with the fox ere we case
him. He was first smoked by the old lord Lafeu:
when his disguise and he is parted, tell me what a
sprat you shall find him; which you shall see this
very night.
Second Lord
I must go look my twigs: he shall be caught.
BERTRAM
Your brother he shall go along with me.
Second Lord
As't please your lordship: I'll leave you.
Exit

BERTRAM
Now will I lead you to the house, and show you
The lass I spoke of.
First Lord
But you say she's honest.
BERTRAM
That's all the fault: I spoke with her but once
And found her wondrous cold; but I sent to her,
By this same coxcomb that we have i' the wind,
Tokens and letters which she did re-send;
And this is all I have done. She's a fair creature:
Will you go see her?
First Lord
With all my heart, my lord.
Exeunt第六场弗罗棱萨城前营帐

    勃特拉姆及二臣上。

    臣甲不，我的好爵爷，让我们试他一试，看他怎么样。

    臣乙您要是发现他不是个卑鄙小人，请您从此别相信我。

    臣甲凭着我的生命起誓，他是一个骗子。

    勃特拉姆你们以为我一直受了他的骗吗？

    臣甲相信我，爵爷，我一点没有恶意；照我所知道的，就算他是我的亲戚，
我也得说他是一个天字第一号的懦夫，一个到处造谣言说谎话的骗子，每小时都在
作着背信爽约的事，在他身上没有一点可取之处。

    臣乙您应该明白他是怎样一个人，否则要是您太相信了他，有一天他会在一
件关系重大的事情上连累了您的。

    勃特拉姆我希望我知道用怎样方法去试验他。

    臣乙最好就是叫他去把那面失去的鼓夺回来，您已经听见他自告奋勇过了。

    臣甲我就带着一队弗罗棱萨兵士，专挑那些他会误认作敌军的人在半路上突
然拦截他；我们把他捉住捆牢，蒙住了他的眼睛，把他兜了几个圈子，然后带他回
到自己的营里，让他相信他已经在敌人的阵地里了。您可以看我们怎样审问他，要
是他并不贪生怕死，出卖友人，把他所知道的我们这里的事情指天誓日地一古脑儿
招出来，那么请您以后再不要相信我的话好了。

    臣乙啊！叫他去夺回他的鼓来，好让我们解解闷儿；他说他已经有了一个妙
计；可以去把它夺回来。您要是看见了他怎样完成他的任务，看看他这块废铜烂铁
究竟可以熔成什么材料，那时你倘不揍他一顿拳头，我才不信呢。他来啦。

    臣甲啊！这是个绝妙的玩笑，让我们不要阻挡他的壮志，让他去把他的鼓夺
回来。

    帕洛上。

    勃特拉姆啊，队长！你还在念念不忘这面鼓吗？

    臣乙妈的！这算什么，左右不过是一面鼓罢了。

    帕洛不过是一面鼓！怎么叫不过是一面鼓？难道这样丢了就算了？真是高明
的指挥——叫我们的马队冲向我们自己的两翼，把我们自己的步兵截断了。

    臣乙那可不能怪谁的不是啊；这种挫折本来是战争中所不免的，就是凯撒做
了大将，也是没有办法的。

    勃特拉姆究竟我们这回是打了胜仗的。丢了鼓虽然有点失面子，已经丢了没
有法子夺回来，也就算了。

    帕洛它是可以夺回来的。

    勃特拉姆也许可以，可是现在已经没法想了。

    帕洛没法想也得夺它回来。倘不是因为论功行赏往往总是给滥竽充数的人占
了便宜去，我一定要去拚死夺回那面鼓来。

    勃特拉姆很好，队长，你要是真有这样胆量，你要是以为你的神出鬼没的战
略，可以把这三军光荣所系的东西重新夺回来；那么请你尽量发挥你的雄才；试一
试你的本领吧。要是你能够成功，我可以给你在公爵面前特别吹嘘，他不但会大大
地褒奖你，而且一定会重重赏你的。

    帕洛我愿意举着这一只军人的手郑重起誓，我一定要干它一下。

    勃特拉姆好，现在你可不能含含糊糊赖过去了。

    帕洛我今晚就去；现在我马上就把一切步骤拟定下来，鼓起必胜的信念，打
起视死如归的决心，等到半夜时候，你们等候我的消息吧。

    勃特拉姆我可不可以现在就去把你的决心告诉公爵殿下？

    帕洛我不知道此去成败如何，可是大丈夫说做就做，决无反悔。

    勃特拉姆我知道你是个勇敢的人，凭着你的过人的智勇，一定会成功的。再
会。

    帕洛我不喜欢多说废话。（下。）

    臣甲你要是不喜欢多说废话，那么鱼儿也不会喜欢水了。爵爷，您看他自己
明明知道这件事情办不到，偏偏会那样大言不惭地好像看得那样有把握；虽然夸下
了口，却又硬不起头皮来，真是个莫名其妙的家伙！

    臣乙爵爷，您没有我们知道他那样详细；他凭着那副吹拍的功夫，果然很会
讨人喜欢，别人在一时之间也不容易看破他的真相，可是等到你知道了他究竟是一
个怎么样的人以后，你就永远不会再相信他了。

    勃特拉姆难道你们以为他这样郑重其事地一口答应下来，竟会是空口说说的
吗？

    臣甲他绝对不会认真去做的；他在什么地方溜了一趟，回来编一个谎，造两
三个谣言，就算完事了。可是我们已经布下陷阱，今晚一定要叫他出丑。像他这样
的人，的确是不值得您去抬举的。

    臣乙我们在把这狐狸关进笼子以前，还要先把他戏弄一番。拉佛老大人早就
知道他不是个好人了。等他原形毕露以后，请您瞧瞧他是个什么东西吧；今天晚上
您就知道了。

    臣甲我要去找我的棒儿来，今晚一定要捉住他。

    勃特拉姆我要请你这位兄弟陪我走走。

    臣甲悉随爵爷尊便，失陪了。（下。）

    勃特拉姆现在我要把你带到我跟你说起的那家人家去，让你见见那位姑娘。

    臣乙可是您说她是很规矩的。

    勃特拉姆就是这一点讨厌。我只跟她说过一次话，她对我冷冰冰的一点笑容
都没有。我曾经叫帕洛那混蛋替我送给她许多礼物和情书，她都完全退还了，把我
弄得毫无办法。她是个很标致的人儿。你愿意去见见她吗？

    臣乙愿意，愿意。（同下。

SCENE VII. Florence. The Widow's house.

Enter HELENA and Widow
HELENA
If you misdoubt me that I am not she,
I know not how I shall assure you further,
But I shall lose the grounds I work upon.
Widow
Though my estate be fallen, I was well born,
Nothing acquainted with these businesses;
And would not put my reputation now
In any staining act.
HELENA
Nor would I wish you.
First, give me trust, the count he is my husband,
And what to your sworn counsel I have spoken
Is so from word to word; and then you cannot,
By the good aid that I of you shall borrow,
Err in bestowing it.
Widow
I should believe you:
For you have show'd me that which well approves
You're great in fortune.
HELENA
Take this purse of gold,
And let me buy your friendly help thus far,
Which I will over-pay and pay again
When I have found it. The count he wooes your daughter,
Lays down his wanton siege before her beauty,
Resolved to carry her: let her in fine consent,
As we'll direct her how 'tis best to bear it.
Now his important blood will nought deny
That she'll demand: a ring the county wears,
That downward hath succeeded in his house
From son to son, some four or five descents
Since the first father wore it: this ring he holds
In most rich choice; yet in his idle fire,
To buy his will, it would not seem too dear,
Howe'er repented after.
Widow
Now I see
The bottom of your purpose.
HELENA
You see it lawful, then: it is no more,
But that your daughter, ere she seems as won,
Desires this ring; appoints him an encounter;
In fine, delivers me to fill the time,
Herself most chastely absent: after this,
To marry her, I'll add three thousand crowns
To what is passed already.
Widow
I have yielded:
Instruct my daughter how she shall persever,
That time and place with this deceit so lawful
May prove coherent. Every night he comes
With musics of all sorts and songs composed
To her unworthiness: it nothing steads us
To chide him from our eaves; for he persists
As if his life lay on't.
HELENA
Why then to-night
Let us assay our plot; which, if it speed,
Is wicked meaning in a lawful deed
And lawful meaning in a lawful act,
Where both not sin, and yet a sinful fact:
But let's about it.
Exeunt第七场弗罗棱萨。寡妇家中一室

    海丽娜及寡妇上。

    海丽娜您要是不相信我就是她，我不知道怎样才可以向您证明，我的计划也
就没有法子可以实行了。

    寡妇我的家道虽然已经中落，可是我也是好人家出身，这一类事情从来不曾
干过；我不愿现在因为做了不干不净的勾当，而玷污了我的名誉。

    海丽娜如果是不名誉的事，我也决不希望您去做。第一，我要请您相信我，
这个伯爵的确就是我的丈夫，我刚才对您说过的话，没有半个字虚假；所以您要是
答应帮助我，决不会有错的。

    寡妇我应当相信您，因为您已经向我证明您的确是一位名门贵妇。

    海丽娜这一袋金子请您收了，略为表示我一点感谢您好心帮助我的意思，等
到事情成功以后，我还要重重谢您。伯爵看中令嫒的姿色，想要用淫邪的手段来诱
惑她；让她答应了他的要求吧，我们可以指导她用怎样的方式诱他入彀；他在热情
的煽动下，一定会答应她的任何条件。他的手指上佩着一个指环，是他四五代以前
祖先的遗物，世世相传下来的，他把它看得非常宝贵；可是令嫒要是向他讨这指环，
他为了满足他的欲念起见，也许会不顾日后的懊悔，毫无吝色地送给她的。

    寡妇现在我明白您的用意了。

    海丽娜那么您也知道这一件事情是合法的了。只要令嫒在假装愿意之前，先
向他讨下了这指环，然后约他一个时间相会，事情就完了；到了那时间，我会顶替
她赴约，她自己还是白璧无瑕，不会受他的污辱。事成之后，我愿意在她已有的嫁
奁上，再送她三千克朗，答谢她的辛劳。

    寡妇我已经答应您了，可是您还得先去教我的女儿用怎样一种不即不离的态
度，使这场合法的骗局不露破绽。他每夜都到这里来，弹唱着各种乐曲歌颂她的庸
姿陋质；我们也没有法子把他赶走，他就像攸关生死一样不肯离开。

    海丽娜那么好，我们就在今夜试一试我们的计策吧；要是能够干得成功，那
就是男的有邪心，女的无恶意，看似犯奸淫，实则行婚配。我们就这样进行起来吧。
（同下。）

SCENE I. Without the Florentine camp.

Enter Second French Lord, with five or six other Soldiers in ambush
Second Lord
He can come no other way but by this hedge-corner.
When you sally upon him, speak what terrible
language you will: though you understand it not
yourselves, no matter; for we must not seem to
understand him, unless some one among us whom we
must produce for an interpreter.
First Soldier
Good captain, let me be the interpreter.
Second Lord
Art not acquainted with him? knows he not thy voice?
First Soldier
No, sir, I warrant you.
Second Lord
But what linsey-woolsey hast thou to speak to us again?
First Soldier
E'en such as you speak to me.
Second Lord
He must think us some band of strangers i' the
adversary's entertainment. Now he hath a smack of
all neighbouring languages; therefore we must every
one be a man of his own fancy, not to know what we
speak one to another; so we seem to know, is to
know straight our purpose: choughs' language,
gabble enough, and good enough. As for you,
interpreter, you must seem very politic. But couch,
ho! here he comes, to beguile two hours in a sleep,
and then to return and swear the lies he forges.
Enter PAROLLES

PAROLLES
Ten o'clock: within these three hours 'twill be
time enough to go home. What shall I say I have
done? It must be a very plausive invention that
carries it: they begin to smoke me; and disgraces
have of late knocked too often at my door. I find
my tongue is too foolhardy; but my heart hath the
fear of Mars before it and of his creatures, not
daring the reports of my tongue.
Second Lord
This is the first truth that e'er thine own tongue
was guilty of.
PAROLLES
What the devil should move me to undertake the
recovery of this drum, being not ignorant of the
impossibility, and knowing I had no such purpose? I
must give myself some hurts, and say I got them in
exploit: yet slight ones will not carry it; they
will say, 'Came you off with so little?' and great
ones I dare not give. Wherefore, what's the
instance? Tongue, I must put you into a
butter-woman's mouth and buy myself another of
Bajazet's mule, if you prattle me into these perils.
Second Lord
Is it possible he should know what he is, and be
that he is?
PAROLLES
I would the cutting of my garments would serve the
turn, or the breaking of my Spanish sword.
Second Lord
We cannot afford you so.
PAROLLES
Or the baring of my beard; and to say it was in
stratagem.
Second Lord
'Twould not do.
PAROLLES
Or to drown my clothes, and say I was stripped.
Second Lord
Hardly serve.
PAROLLES
Though I swore I leaped from the window of the citadel.
Second Lord
How deep?
PAROLLES
Thirty fathom.
Second Lord
Three great oaths would scarce make that be believed.
PAROLLES
I would I had any drum of the enemy's: I would swear
I recovered it.
Second Lord
You shall hear one anon.
PAROLLES
A drum now of the enemy's,--
Alarum within

Second Lord
Throca movousus, cargo, cargo, cargo.
All
Cargo, cargo, cargo, villiando par corbo, cargo.
PAROLLES
O, ransom, ransom! do not hide mine eyes.
They seize and blindfold him

First Soldier
Boskos thromuldo boskos.
PAROLLES
I know you are the Muskos' regiment:
And I shall lose my life for want of language;
If there be here German, or Dane, low Dutch,
Italian, or French, let him speak to me; I'll
Discover that which shall undo the Florentine.
First Soldier
Boskos vauvado: I understand thee, and can speak
thy tongue. Kerely bonto, sir, betake thee to thy
faith, for seventeen poniards are at thy bosom.
PAROLLES
O!
First Soldier
O, pray, pray, pray! Manka revania dulche.
Second Lord
Oscorbidulchos volivorco.
First Soldier
The general is content to spare thee yet;
And, hoodwink'd as thou art, will lead thee on
To gather from thee: haply thou mayst inform
Something to save thy life.
PAROLLES
O, let me live!
And all the secrets of our camp I'll show,
Their force, their purposes; nay, I'll speak that
Which you will wonder at.
First Soldier
But wilt thou faithfully?
PAROLLES
If I do not, damn me.
First Soldier
Acordo linta.
Come on; thou art granted space.
Exit, with PAROLLES guarded. A short alarum within

Second Lord
Go, tell the Count Rousillon, and my brother,
We have caught the woodcock, and will keep him muffled
Till we do hear from them.
Second Soldier
Captain, I will.
Second Lord
A' will betray us all unto ourselves:
Inform on that.
Second Soldier
So I will, sir.
Second Lord
Till then I'll keep him dark and safely lock'd.
Exeunt第四幕

    第一场弗罗棱萨军营外

    臣甲率埋伏兵士五六人上。

    臣甲他一定会打这篱笆角上经过。你们向他冲上去的时候，大家都要齐声乱
嚷，讲着一些希奇古怪的话，即使说得自己都听不懂也没有什么关系；我们都要假
装听不懂他的话，只有一个人听得懂，我们就叫那个人出来做翻译。

    兵士甲队长，让我做翻译吧。

    臣甲你跟他不熟悉吗，他听不出你的声音来吗？

    兵士甲不，队长，我可以向您担保他听不出我的声音。

    臣甲那么你向我们讲些什么南腔北调呢？

    兵士甲就跟你们向我说的那些话一样。

    臣甲我们必须使他相信我们是敌人军队中的一队客籍军。他对于邻近各国的
方言都懂得一些，所以我们必须每个人随口瞎嚷一些大家听不懂的话儿；好在大家
都知道我们的目的是什么，因此可以彼此心照不宣，假装懂得就是了；尽管像老鸦
叫似的，咭哩咕噜一阵子，越糊涂越好。至于你做翻译的，必须表示出一副机警调
皮的样子来。啊，快快埋伏起来！他来了，他一定是到这里来睡上两点钟，然后回
去编造一些谎话哄人。

    帕洛上。

    帕洛十点钟了；再过三点钟便可以回去。我应当说我做了些什么事情呢？这
谎话一定要编造得十分巧妙，才会叫他们相信。他们已经有点疑心我，倒霉的事情
近来接二连三地落到我的头上来。我觉得我这一条舌头太胆大了，我那颗心却又太
胆小了，看见战神老爷和他的那些喽罗们的影子，就会战战兢兢，话是说得出来，
一动手就吓软了。

    臣甲（旁白）这是你第一次说的老实话。

    帕洛我明明知道丢了的鼓夺不回来，我也明明知道我一点没有去夺回那面鼓
来的意思，什么鬼附在我身上，叫我夸下这个海口？我必须在我身上割破几个地方，
好对他们说这是力战敌人所留的伤痕；可是轻微的伤口不会叫他们相信，他们一定
要说，“你这样容易就脱身出来了吗？”重一点呢，又怕痛了皮肉。这怎么办呢？
闯祸的舌头呀，你要是再这样瞎三话四地害我，我可要割下你来，放在老婆子的嘴
里，这辈子宁愿做个哑巴了。

    臣甲（旁白）他居然也会有自知之明吗？

    帕洛我想要是我把衣服撕破了，或是把我那柄西班牙剑敲断了，也许可以叫
他们相信。

    臣甲（旁白）没有那么便宜的事。



    帕洛或者把我的胡须割去了，说那是一个计策。

    臣甲（旁白）这不行。

    帕洛或者把我的衣服丢在水里，说是给敌人剥去了。

    臣甲（旁白）也不行。

    帕洛我可以赌咒说我从城头上跳下来，那个城墙足有——

    臣甲（旁白）多高？

    帕洛三十丈。

    臣甲（旁白）你赌下三个重咒人家也不会信你。

    帕洛可是顶好我能够拾到一面敌人弃下来的鼓，那么我就可以赌咒说那是我
从敌人手里夺回来的了。

    臣甲（旁白）别忙，你就可以听见敌人的鼓声了。

    帕洛哎哟，真的是敌人的鼓声！（内喧嚷声。）

    臣甲色洛加·摩伏塞斯，卡哥，卡哥，卡哥。

    众人卡哥，卡哥，维利安达·拍·考薄，卡哥。（众擒帕洛，以巾掩其目。）

    帕洛啊！救命！救命！不要遮住我的眼睛。

    兵士甲波斯哥斯·色洛末尔陀·波斯哥斯。

    帕洛我知道你们是一队莫斯科兵；我不会讲你们的话，这回真的要送命了。
要是列位中间有人懂得德国话、丹麦话、荷兰话、意大利话或者法国话的，请他跟
我说话，我可以告诉他弗罗棱萨军队中的秘密。

    兵士甲波斯哥斯·伏伐陀。我懂得你的话，会讲你的话。克累利旁托。朋友，
你不能说谎，小心点吧，十七把刀儿指着你的胸口呢。

    帕洛哎哟！

    兵士甲哎哟！跪下来祷告吧。曼加·累凡尼亚·都尔契。

    臣甲奥斯考皮都尔却斯·伏利伏科。

    兵士甲将军答应暂时不杀你！现在我们要把你这样蒙着眼睛，带你回去盘问，
也许你可以告诉我们一些军事上的秘密，赎回你的狗命。

    帕洛啊，放我活命吧！我可以告诉你们我们营里的一切秘密：一共有多少人
马，他们的作战方略，还有许多可以叫你们吃惊的事情。

    兵士乙可是你不会说谎话吧？

    帕洛要是我说了半句谎话，死后不得超生。

    兵士甲阿考陀·林他。来，饶你多活几个钟点。（率若干兵士押帕洛下，内
起喧嚷声片刻。）

    臣甲去告诉罗西昂伯爵和我的兄弟，说我们已经把那只野鸟捉住了，他的眼
睛给我们蒙着，请他们决定如何处置。

    兵士乙是，队长。

    臣甲你再告诉他们，他将要在我们面前泄漏我们的秘密。

    兵士乙是，队长。

    臣甲现在我先把他好好地关起来再说。（同下。）

SCENE II. Florence. The Widow's house.

Enter BERTRAM and DIANA
BERTRAM
They told me that your name was Fontibell.
DIANA
No, my good lord, Diana.
BERTRAM
Titled goddess;
And worth it, with addition! But, fair soul,
In your fine frame hath love no quality?
If quick fire of youth light not your mind,
You are no maiden, but a monument:
When you are dead, you should be such a one
As you are now, for you are cold and stem;
And now you should be as your mother was
When your sweet self was got.
DIANA
She then was honest.
BERTRAM
So should you be.
DIANA
No:
My mother did but duty; such, my lord,
As you owe to your wife.
BERTRAM
No more o' that;
I prithee, do not strive against my vows:
I was compell'd to her; but I love thee
By love's own sweet constraint, and will for ever
Do thee all rights of service.
DIANA
Ay, so you serve us
Till we serve you; but when you have our roses,
You barely leave our thorns to prick ourselves
And mock us with our bareness.
BERTRAM
How have I sworn!
DIANA
'Tis not the many oaths that makes the truth,
But the plain single vow that is vow'd true.
What is not holy, that we swear not by,
But take the High'st to witness: then, pray you, tell me,
If I should swear by God's great attributes,
I loved you dearly, would you believe my oaths,
When I did love you ill? This has no holding,
To swear by him whom I protest to love,
That I will work against him: therefore your oaths
Are words and poor conditions, but unseal'd,
At least in my opinion.
BERTRAM
Change it, change it;
Be not so holy-cruel: love is holy;
And my integrity ne'er knew the crafts
That you do charge men with. Stand no more off,
But give thyself unto my sick desires,
Who then recover: say thou art mine, and ever
My love as it begins shall so persever.
DIANA
I see that men make ropes in such a scarre
That we'll forsake ourselves. Give me that ring.
BERTRAM
I'll lend it thee, my dear; but have no power
To give it from me.
DIANA
Will you not, my lord?
BERTRAM
It is an honour 'longing to our house,
Bequeathed down from many ancestors;
Which were the greatest obloquy i' the world
In me to lose.
DIANA
Mine honour's such a ring:
My chastity's the jewel of our house,
Bequeathed down from many ancestors;
Which were the greatest obloquy i' the world
In me to lose: thus your own proper wisdom
Brings in the champion Honour on my part,
Against your vain assault.
BERTRAM
Here, take my ring:
My house, mine honour, yea, my life, be thine,
And I'll be bid by thee.
DIANA
When midnight comes, knock at my chamber-window:
I'll order take my mother shall not hear.
Now will I charge you in the band of truth,
When you have conquer'd my yet maiden bed,
Remain there but an hour, nor speak to me:
My reasons are most strong; and you shall know them
When back again this ring shall be deliver'd:
And on your finger in the night I'll put
Another ring, that what in time proceeds
May token to the future our past deeds.
Adieu, till then; then, fail not. You have won
A wife of me, though there my hope be done.
BERTRAM
A heaven on earth I have won by wooing thee.
Exit

DIANA
For which live long to thank both heaven and me!
You may so in the end.
My mother told me just how he would woo,
As if she sat in 's heart; she says all men
Have the like oaths: he had sworn to marry me
When his wife's dead; therefore I'll lie with him
When I am buried. Since Frenchmen are so braid,
Marry that will, I live and die a maid:
Only in this disguise I think't no sin
To cozen him that would unjustly win.
Exit第二场弗罗棱萨。寡妇家中一室

    勃特拉姆及狄安娜上。

    勃特拉姆他们告诉我你的名字是芳提贝尔。

    狄安娜不，爵爷，我叫狄安娜。

    勃特拉姆果然你比月中的仙子还要美上几分！可是美人，难道你外表这样秀
美，你的心里竟不让爱情有一席地位吗？要是青春的炽烈的火焰不曾燃烧着你的灵
魂，那么你不是女郎，简直是一座石像了。你倘然是一个有生命的活人，就不该这
样冷酷无情。你现在应该学学你母亲开始怀孕着你的时候那种榜样才对啊。

    狄安娜她是个贞洁的妇人。

    勃特拉姆你也是。

    狄安娜不，我的母亲不过尽她应尽的名分，正像您对您夫人也有应尽的名分
一样。

    勃特拉姆别说那一套了！请不要再为难我了吧。我跟她结婚完全出于被迫，
可是我爱你却是因为我自己心里的爱情在鞭策着我。我愿意永远供你驱使。

    狄安娜对啦，在我们没有愿意供你们驱使之前，你们是愿意供我们驱使的；
可是一等到你们把我们枝上的蔷薇采去以后，你们就把棘刺留着刺痛我们，反倒来
嘲笑我们的枝残叶老。

    勃特拉姆我不是向你发过无数次誓了吗？

    狄安娜许多誓不一定可以表示真诚，真心的誓只要一个就够了。我们在发誓
的时候，哪一回不是指天誓日，以最高的事物为见证？请问要是我实在一点不爱你，
我却指着上帝的名字起誓，说我深深地爱着你，这样的誓是不是可以相信的呢？口
口声声说敬爱上帝，用他的名义起誓，干的却是违反他意旨的事，这太说不通了。
所以你那些誓言都是空话，等于没有打印信的契约——至少我认为如此。

    勃特拉姆不要这样想。不要这样神圣而残酷。恋爱是神圣的，我的纯洁的心，
也从来不懂得你所指斥男子们的那种奸诈。不要再这样冷淡我，请你快来安慰安慰
我的饥渴吧。你只要说一声你是我的，我一定会始终如一地永远爱着你。

    狄安娜男人们都是用这种手段诱我们失身的。把那个指环给我。

    勃特拉姆好人，我可以把它借给你，可是我不能给你。

    狄安娜您不愿意吗，爵爷？

    勃特拉姆这是我家世世相传的荣誉，如果我把它丢了，那是莫大的不幸。

    狄安娜我的荣誉也就像这指环一样；我的贞操也是我家世世相传的宝物，如
果我把它丢了，那是莫大的不幸。我正可借用您的说法，拿“荣誉”这个词来抗拒
您的无益的试探。

    勃特拉姆好，你就把我的指环拿去吧；我的家、我的荣誉甚至于我的生命，
都是属于你的，我愿意一切听从你。

    狄安娜今宵半夜时分，你来敲我卧室的窗门，我可以预先设法调开我的母亲。
可是你必须依从我一个条件，当你征服了我的童贞之身以后，你不能耽搁一小时以
上，也不要对我说一句话。为什么要这样是有很充分的理由的，等这指环还给你的
时候，你就可以知道。今夜我还要把另一个指环套在你的手指上，留作日后的信物。
晚上再见吧，可不要失约啊。你已经赢得了一个妻子，我的终身却也许从此毁了。

    勃特拉姆我得到了你，就像是踏进了地上的天堂。（下。）

    狄安娜有一天你会感谢上天，幸亏遇见了我。我的母亲告诉我他会怎样向我
求爱，她就像住在他心里一样说得一点不错；她说，男人们所发的誓，都是千篇一
律的。他发誓说等他妻子死了，就跟我结婚；我宁死也不愿跟他同床共枕。这种法
国人这样靠不住，与其嫁给他，还不如终身做个处女好。他想用欺骗手段诱惑我，
我现在也用欺骗手段报答他，想来总不能算是罪恶吧。（下。）

SCENE III. The Florentine camp.

Enter the two French Lords and some two or three Soldiers
First Lord
You have not given him his mother's letter?
Second Lord
I have delivered it an hour since: there is
something in't that stings his nature; for on the
reading it he changed almost into another man.
First Lord
He has much worthy blame laid upon him for shaking
off so good a wife and so sweet a lady.
Second Lord
Especially he hath incurred the everlasting
displeasure of the king, who had even tuned his
bounty to sing happiness to him. I will tell you a
thing, but you shall let it dwell darkly with you.
First Lord
When you have spoken it, 'tis dead, and I am the
grave of it.
Second Lord
He hath perverted a young gentlewoman here in
Florence, of a most chaste renown; and this night he
fleshes his will in the spoil of her honour: he hath
given her his monumental ring, and thinks himself
made in the unchaste composition.
First Lord
Now, God delay our rebellion! as we are ourselves,
what things are we!
Second Lord
Merely our own traitors. And as in the common course
of all treasons, we still see them reveal
themselves, till they attain to their abhorred ends,
so he that in this action contrives against his own
nobility, in his proper stream o'erflows himself.
First Lord
Is it not meant damnable in us, to be trumpeters of
our unlawful intents? We shall not then have his
company to-night?
Second Lord
Not till after midnight; for he is dieted to his hour.
First Lord
That approaches apace; I would gladly have him see
his company anatomized, that he might take a measure
of his own judgments, wherein so curiously he had
set this counterfeit.
Second Lord
We will not meddle with him till he come; for his
presence must be the whip of the other.
First Lord
In the mean time, what hear you of these wars?
Second Lord
I hear there is an overture of peace.
First Lord
Nay, I assure you, a peace concluded.
Second Lord
What will Count Rousillon do then? will he travel
higher, or return again into France?
First Lord
I perceive, by this demand, you are not altogether
of his council.
Second Lord
Let it be forbid, sir; so should I be a great deal
of his act.
First Lord
Sir, his wife some two months since fled from his
house: her pretence is a pilgrimage to Saint Jaques
le Grand; which holy undertaking with most austere
sanctimony she accomplished; and, there residing the
tenderness of her nature became as a prey to her
grief; in fine, made a groan of her last breath, and
now she sings in heaven.
Second Lord
How is this justified?
First Lord
The stronger part of it by her own letters, which
makes her story true, even to the point of her
death: her death itself, which could not be her
office to say is come, was faithfully confirmed by
the rector of the place.
Second Lord
Hath the count all this intelligence?
First Lord
Ay, and the particular confirmations, point from
point, so to the full arming of the verity.
Second Lord
I am heartily sorry that he'll be glad of this.
First Lord
How mightily sometimes we make us comforts of our losses!
Second Lord
And how mightily some other times we drown our gain
in tears! The great dignity that his valour hath
here acquired for him shall at home be encountered
with a shame as ample.
First Lord
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and
ill together: our virtues would be proud, if our
faults whipped them not; and our crimes would
despair, if they were not cherished by our virtues.
Enter a Messenger

How now! where's your master?
Servant
He met the duke in the street, sir, of whom he hath
taken a solemn leave: his lordship will next
morning for France. The duke hath offered him
letters of commendations to the king.
Second Lord
They shall be no more than needful there, if they
were more than they can commend.
First Lord
They cannot be too sweet for the king's tartness.
Here's his lordship now.
Enter BERTRAM

How now, my lord! is't not after midnight?
BERTRAM
I have to-night dispatched sixteen businesses, a
month's length a-piece, by an abstract of success:
I have congied with the duke, done my adieu with his
nearest; buried a wife, mourned for her; writ to my
lady mother I am returning; entertained my convoy;
and between these main parcels of dispatch effected
many nicer needs; the last was the greatest, but
that I have not ended yet.
Second Lord
If the business be of any difficulty, and this
morning your departure hence, it requires haste of
your lordship.
BERTRAM
I mean, the business is not ended, as fearing to
hear of it hereafter. But shall we have this
dialogue between the fool and the soldier? Come,
bring forth this counterfeit module, he has deceived
me, like a double-meaning prophesier.
Second Lord
Bring him forth: has sat i' the stocks all night,
poor gallant knave.
BERTRAM
No matter: his heels have deserved it, in usurping
his spurs so long. How does he carry himself?
Second Lord
I have told your lordship already, the stocks carry
him. But to answer you as you would be understood;
he weeps like a wench that had shed her milk: he
hath confessed himself to Morgan, whom he supposes
to be a friar, from the time of his remembrance to
this very instant disaster of his setting i' the
stocks: and what think you he hath confessed?
BERTRAM
Nothing of me, has a'?
Second Lord
His confession is taken, and it shall be read to his
face: if your lordship be in't, as I believe you
are, you must have the patience to hear it.
Enter PAROLLES guarded, and First Soldier

BERTRAM
A plague upon him! muffled! he can say nothing of
me: hush, hush!
First Lord
Hoodman comes! Portotartarosa
First Soldier
He calls for the tortures: what will you say
without 'em?
PAROLLES
I will confess what I know without constraint: if
ye pinch me like a pasty, I can say no more.
First Soldier
Bosko chimurcho.
First Lord
Boblibindo chicurmurco.
First Soldier
You are a merciful general. Our general bids you
answer to what I shall ask you out of a note.
PAROLLES
And truly, as I hope to live.
First Soldier
[Reads] 'First demand of him how many horse the
duke is strong.' What say you to that?
PAROLLES
Five or six thousand; but very weak and
unserviceable: the troops are all scattered, and
the commanders very poor rogues, upon my reputation
and credit and as I hope to live.
First Soldier
Shall I set down your answer so?
PAROLLES
Do: I'll take the sacrament on't, how and which way you will.
BERTRAM
All's one to him. What a past-saving slave is this!
First Lord
You're deceived, my lord: this is Monsieur
Parolles, the gallant militarist,--that was his own
phrase,--that had the whole theoric of war in the
knot of his scarf, and the practise in the chape of
his dagger.
Second Lord
I will never trust a man again for keeping his sword
clean. nor believe he can have every thing in him
by wearing his apparel neatly.
First Soldier
Well, that's set down.
PAROLLES
Five or six thousand horse, I said,-- I will say
true,--or thereabouts, set down, for I'll speak truth.
First Lord
He's very near the truth in this.
BERTRAM
But I con him no thanks for't, in the nature he
delivers it.
PAROLLES
Poor rogues, I pray you, say.
First Soldier
Well, that's set down.
PAROLLES
I humbly thank you, sir: a truth's a truth, the
rogues are marvellous poor.
First Soldier
[Reads] 'Demand of him, of what strength they are
a-foot.' What say you to that?
PAROLLES
By my troth, sir, if I were to live this present
hour, I will tell true. Let me see: Spurio, a
hundred and fifty; Sebastian, so many; Corambus, so
many; Jaques, so many; Guiltian, Cosmo, Lodowick,
and Gratii, two hundred and fifty each; mine own
company, Chitopher, Vaumond, Bentii, two hundred and
fifty each: so that the muster-file, rotten and
sound, upon my life, amounts not to fifteen thousand
poll; half of the which dare not shake snow from off
their cassocks, lest they shake themselves to pieces.
BERTRAM
What shall be done to him?
First Lord
Nothing, but let him have thanks. Demand of him my
condition, and what credit I have with the duke.
First Soldier
Well, that's set down.
Reads

'You shall demand of him, whether one Captain Dumain
be i' the camp, a Frenchman; what his reputation is
with the duke; what his valour, honesty, and
expertness in wars; or whether he thinks it were not
possible, with well-weighing sums of gold, to
corrupt him to revolt.' What say you to this? what
do you know of it?
PAROLLES
I beseech you, let me answer to the particular of
the inter'gatories: demand them singly.
First Soldier
Do you know this Captain Dumain?
PAROLLES
I know him: a' was a botcher's 'prentice in Paris,
from whence he was whipped for getting the shrieve's
fool with child,--a dumb innocent, that could not
say him nay.
BERTRAM
Nay, by your leave, hold your hands; though I know
his brains are forfeit to the next tile that falls.
First Soldier
Well, is this captain in the duke of Florence's camp?
PAROLLES
Upon my knowledge, he is, and lousy.
First Lord
Nay look not so upon me; we shall hear of your
lordship anon.
First Soldier
What is his reputation with the duke?
PAROLLES
The duke knows him for no other but a poor officer
of mine; and writ to me this other day to turn him
out o' the band: I think I have his letter in my pocket.
First Soldier
Marry, we'll search.
PAROLLES
In good sadness, I do not know; either it is there,
or it is upon a file with the duke's other letters
in my tent.
First Soldier
Here 'tis; here's a paper: shall I read it to you?
PAROLLES
I do not know if it be it or no.
BERTRAM
Our interpreter does it well.
First Lord
Excellently.
First Soldier
[Reads] 'Dian, the count's a fool, and full of gold,'--
PAROLLES
That is not the duke's letter, sir; that is an
advertisement to a proper maid in Florence, one
Diana, to take heed of the allurement of one Count
Rousillon, a foolish idle boy, but for all that very
ruttish: I pray you, sir, put it up again.
First Soldier
Nay, I'll read it first, by your favour.
PAROLLES
My meaning in't, I protest, was very honest in the
behalf of the maid; for I knew the young count to be
a dangerous and lascivious boy, who is a whale to
virginity and devours up all the fry it finds.
BERTRAM
Damnable both-sides rogue!
First Soldier
[Reads] 'When he swears oaths, bid him drop gold, and take it;
After he scores, he never pays the score:
Half won is match well made; match, and well make it;
He ne'er pays after-debts, take it before;
And say a soldier, Dian, told thee this,
Men are to mell with, boys are not to kiss:
For count of this, the count's a fool, I know it,
Who pays before, but not when he does owe it.
Thine, as he vowed to thee in thine ear,
PAROLLES.'
BERTRAM
He shall be whipped through the army with this rhyme
in's forehead.
Second Lord
This is your devoted friend, sir, the manifold
linguist and the armipotent soldier.
BERTRAM
I could endure any thing before but a cat, and now
he's a cat to me.
First Soldier
I perceive, sir, by the general's looks, we shall be
fain to hang you.
PAROLLES
My life, sir, in any case: not that I am afraid to
die; but that, my offences being many, I would
repent out the remainder of nature: let me live,
sir, in a dungeon, i' the stocks, or any where, so I may live.
First Soldier
We'll see what may be done, so you confess freely;
therefore, once more to this Captain Dumain: you
have answered to his reputation with the duke and to
his valour: what is his honesty?
PAROLLES
He will steal, sir, an egg out of a cloister: for
rapes and ravishments he parallels Nessus: he
professes not keeping of oaths; in breaking 'em he
is stronger than Hercules: he will lie, sir, with
such volubility, that you would think truth were a
fool: drunkenness is his best virtue, for he will
be swine-drunk; and in his sleep he does little
harm, save to his bed-clothes about him; but they
know his conditions and lay him in straw. I have but
little more to say, sir, of his honesty: he has
every thing that an honest man should not have; what
an honest man should have, he has nothing.
First Lord
I begin to love him for this.
BERTRAM
For this description of thine honesty? A pox upon
him for me, he's more and more a cat.
First Soldier
What say you to his expertness in war?
PAROLLES
Faith, sir, he has led the drum before the English
tragedians; to belie him, I will not, and more of
his soldiership I know not; except, in that country
he had the honour to be the officer at a place there
called Mile-end, to instruct for the doubling of
files: I would do the man what honour I can, but of
this I am not certain.
First Lord
He hath out-villained villany so far, that the
rarity redeems him.
BERTRAM
A pox on him, he's a cat still.
First Soldier
His qualities being at this poor price, I need not
to ask you if gold will corrupt him to revolt.
PAROLLES
Sir, for a quart d'ecu he will sell the fee-simple
of his salvation, the inheritance of it; and cut the
entail from all remainders, and a perpetual
succession for it perpetually.
First Soldier
What's his brother, the other Captain Dumain?
Second Lord
Why does be ask him of me?
First Soldier
What's he?
PAROLLES
E'en a crow o' the same nest; not altogether so
great as the first in goodness, but greater a great
deal in evil: he excels his brother for a coward,
yet his brother is reputed one of the best that is:
in a retreat he outruns any lackey; marry, in coming
on he has the cramp.
First Soldier
If your life be saved, will you undertake to betray
the Florentine?
PAROLLES
Ay, and the captain of his horse, Count Rousillon.
First Soldier
I'll whisper with the general, and know his pleasure.
PAROLLES
[Aside] I'll no more drumming; a plague of all
drums! Only to seem to deserve well, and to
beguile the supposition of that lascivious young boy
the count, have I run into this danger. Yet who
would have suspected an ambush where I was taken?
First Soldier
There is no remedy, sir, but you must die: the
general says, you that have so traitorously
discovered the secrets of your army and made such
pestiferous reports of men very nobly held, can
serve the world for no honest use; therefore you
must die. Come, headsman, off with his head.
PAROLLES
O Lord, sir, let me live, or let me see my death!
First Lord
That shall you, and take your leave of all your friends.
Unblinding him

So, look about you: know you any here?
BERTRAM
Good morrow, noble captain.
Second Lord
God bless you, Captain Parolles.
First Lord
God save you, noble captain.
Second Lord
Captain, what greeting will you to my Lord Lafeu?
I am for France.
First Lord
Good captain, will you give me a copy of the sonnet
you writ to Diana in behalf of the Count Rousillon?
an I were not a very coward, I'ld compel it of you:
but fare you well.
Exeunt BERTRAM and Lords

First Soldier
You are undone, captain, all but your scarf; that
has a knot on't yet
PAROLLES
Who cannot be crushed with a plot?
First Soldier
If you could find out a country where but women were
that had received so much shame, you might begin an
impudent nation. Fare ye well, sir; I am for France
too: we shall speak of you there.
Exit with Soldiers

PAROLLES
Yet am I thankful: if my heart were great,
'Twould burst at this. Captain I'll be no more;
But I will eat and drink, and sleep as soft
As captain shall: simply the thing I am
Shall make me live. Who knows himself a braggart,
Let him fear this, for it will come to pass
that every braggart shall be found an ass.
Rust, sword? cool, blushes! and, Parolles, live
Safest in shame! being fool'd, by foolery thrive!
There's place and means for every man alive.
I'll after them.
Exit
    第三场弗罗棱萨军营

    二臣及兵士二三人上。

    臣甲你还没有把他母亲的信交给他吗？

    臣乙我已经在一点钟前给了他；信里好像有些什么话激发了他的天良，因为
他读了信以后，就好像变了一个人似的。

    臣甲他抛弃了这样一位温柔贤淑的妻子，真不应该。

    臣乙他更不应该拂逆王上的旨意，王上不是为了他的幸福作出格外的恩赐吗？
我可以告诉你一件事情，可是你不能讲给别人听。

    臣甲你告诉了我以后，我就把它埋葬在自己的心里，决不再向别人说起。

    臣乙他已经在这里弗罗棱萨勾搭上了一个良家少女，她的贞洁本来是很出名
的；今夜他就要逞他的淫欲去破坏她的贞操，他已经把他那颗宝贵的指环送给她了，
还认为自己这桩见不得人的勾当十分上算。

    臣甲上帝饶恕我们！我们这些人类真不是东西！

    臣乙人不过是他自己的叛徒，正像一切叛逆的行为一样，在达到罪恶的目的
之前，总要泄漏出自己的本性。他干这种事实际会损害他自己高贵的身分，但是他
虽然自食其果，却不以为意。

    臣甲我们对自己龌龊的打算竟然这样吹嘘，真是罪该万死。那么今夜他不能
来了吗？

    臣乙他的时间表已经排好，一定要在半夜之后方才回来。

    臣甲那么再等一会儿他也该来了。我很希望他能够亲眼看见他那个同伴的本
来面目，让他明白明白他自己的判断有没有错误，他是很看重这个骗子的。

    臣乙我们还是等他来了再处置那个人吧，这样才好叫他无所遁形。

    臣甲现在还是谈谈战事吧，你近来听到什么消息没有？

    臣乙我听说两方面已经在进行和议了。

    臣甲不，我可以确实告诉你，和议已经成立了。

    臣乙那么罗西昂伯爵还有些什么事好做呢？他是再到别处去旅行呢，还是打
算回法国去？

    臣甲你这样问我，大概他还没有把你当作一个心腹朋友看待。

    臣乙但愿如此，否则他干的事我也要脱不了干系了。

    臣甲告诉你吧，他的妻子在两个月以前已经从他家里出走，说是要去参礼圣
约克·勒。格朗；把参礼按照最严格的仪式执行完毕以后，她就在那地方住下，因
为她的多愁善感的天性经不起悲哀的袭击，所以一病不起，终于叹了最后一口气，
现在是在天上唱歌了。

    臣乙这消息也许不确吧？

    臣甲她在临死以前的一切经过，都有她亲笔的信可以证明；至于她的死讯，
当然她自己无法通知，但是那也已经由当地的牧师完全证实了。

    臣乙这消息伯爵也完全知道了吗？

    臣甲是的，他已经知道了详详细细的一切。

    臣乙他听见这消息，一定很高兴，想起来真是可叹。

    臣甲我们有时往往会把我们的损失当作莫大的幸事！

    臣乙有时我们却因为幸运而哀伤流泪！他在这里凭着他的勇敢，虽然获得了
极大的光荣，可是他回家以后将遭遇的耻辱，也一定是同样大的。

    臣甲人生就像是一匹用善恶的丝线交错织成的布；我们的善行必须受我们的
过失的鞭挞，才不会过分趾高气扬；我们的罪恶又赖我们的善行把它们掩盖，才不
会完全绝望。

    一仆人上。

    臣甲啊，你的主人呢？

    仆人他在路上遇见公爵，已经向他辞了行，明天早晨他就要回法国去了。公
爵已经给他写好了推荐信，向王上竭力称道他的才干。

    臣乙为他说几句即使是溢美的好话，倒也是不可少的。

    臣甲怎样好听恐怕也不能平复国王的怒气。他来了。

    勃特拉姆上。

    臣甲啊，爵爷！已经过了午夜了吗？

    勃特拉姆  我今晚已经干好了十六件每一件需要一个月时间才办得了的事情。
且听我一一道来：我已经向公爵辞行，跟他身边最亲近的人告别，安葬了一个妻子，
为她办好了丧事，写信通知我的母亲我就要回家了，并且雇好了护送我回去的卫队；
除了这些重要的事情以外，还干好了许多小事情；只有一件最重要的事情还不曾办
妥。

    臣乙要是这件事情有点棘手，您又一早就要动身，那么现在您该把它赶快办
好才是。

    勃特拉姆我想把它不了了之，以后也希望不再听见人家提起它了。现在我们
还是来演一出傻子和大兵的对话吧。来，把那个冒牌货抓出来；他像一个妖言惑众
的江湖术士一样欺骗了我。

    臣乙把他抓出来。（兵士下）他已经锁在脚梏里坐了一整夜了，可怜的勇士！

    勃特拉姆这也是活该，他平常脚跟上戴着马刺也太大模大样了。他被捕以后
是怎样一副神气？

    臣甲我已经告诉您了，爵爷，要没有脚梏，他连坐都坐不直。说得明白些：
他哭得像一个倒翻了牛奶罐的小姑娘。他把摩根当作了一个牧师，把他从有生以来
直到锁在脚梏里为止的一生经历源源本本向他忏悔；您想他忏悔些什么？

    勃特拉姆他没有提起我的事情吧？

    臣乙他的供状已经笔录下来，等会儿可以当着他的面公开宣读；要是他曾经
提起您的事情——我想您是被他提起过的——请您耐着性子听下去。

    兵士押帕洛上。

    勃特拉姆该死的东西！还把脸都遮起来了呢！他不会说我什么的。我且不要
作声，听他怎么说。

    臣甲蒙脸人来了！浦托·达达洛萨。

    兵士甲他说要对你用刑，你看怎样？

    帕洛你们不必逼我，我会把我所知道的一切招供出来；要是你们把我榨成了
肉酱，我也还是说这么几句话。

    兵士甲波斯哥·契末却。

    臣甲波勃利平陀·契克末哥。

    兵士甲真是一位仁慈的将军。这里有一张开列着问题的单子，将爷叫我照着
它问你，你须要老实回答。

    帕洛我希望活命，一定不会说谎。

    兵士甲“第一，问他公爵有多少马匹。”你怎么回答？

    帕洛五六千匹，不过全是老弱无用的，队伍分散各处，军官都像叫化子，我
可以用我的名誉和生命向你们担保。

    兵士甲那么我就把你的回答照这样记下来了。

    帕洛好的，你要我发无论什么誓都可以。

    勃特拉姆他可以什么都不顾，真是个没有救药的狗才！

    臣甲您弄错了，爵爷；这位是赫赫有名的军事专家帕洛先生，这是他自己亲
口说的，在他的领结里藏着全部战略，在他的刀鞘里安放着浑身武艺。

    臣乙我从此再不相信一个把他的剑擦得雪亮的人；我也再不相信一个穿束得
整整齐齐的人会有什么真才实学。

    兵士甲好，你的话已经记下来了。

    帕洛我刚才说的是五六千匹马，或者大约这个数目，我说的是真话，记下来
吧，我说的是真话。

    臣甲他说的这个数目，倒有八九分真。

    勃特拉姆像他这样的说真话，我是不感激他的。

    帕洛请您记好了，我说那些军官们都像叫化子。

    兵士甲好，那也记下了。

    帕洛谢谢您啦。真话就是真话，这些家伙都是寒伧得不成样子的。

    兵士甲“问他步兵有多少人数。”你怎么回答？

    帕洛你们要是放我活命，我一定不说谎话。让我看：史卑里奥，一百五十人；
西巴斯辛，一百五十人；柯兰勃斯，一百五十人；杰奎斯，一百五十人；吉尔辛、
考斯莫、洛多威克、葛拉提，各二百五十人；我自己所带的一队，还有契托弗、伏
蒙特、本提，各二百五十人：一共算起来，好的歹的并在一起，还不到一万五千人，
其中的半数连他们自己外套上的雪都不敢拂掉，因为他们唯恐身子摇了一摇，就会
像朽木一样倒塌下来。

    勃特拉姆这个人应当把他怎样处治才好？

    臣甲我看不必，我们应该谢谢他。问他我这个人怎样，公爵对我信任不信任。

    兵士甲好，我已经把你的话记下来了。“问他公爵营里有没有一个法国人名
叫杜曼上尉的；公爵对他的信用如何；他的勇气如何，为人是否正直，军事方面的
才能怎样；假如用重金贿赂他，能不能诱他背叛。”你怎么回答？你所知道的怎样？

    帕洛请您一条一条问我，让我逐一回答。

    兵士甲你认识这个杜曼上尉吗？

    帕洛我认识他，他本来是巴黎一家缝衣铺里的徒弟，因为把市长家里的一个
不知人事的傻丫头弄大了肚皮，被他的师傅一顿好打赶了出来。（臣甲举手欲打。）

    勃特拉姆且慢，不要打他；他的脑袋免不了要给一爿瓦掉下来砸碎的。

    兵士甲好，这个上尉在不在弗罗棱萨公爵的营里？

    帕洛他在公爵营里，他的名誉一塌糊涂。

    臣甲不要这样瞧着我，我的好爵爷，他就会说起您的。

    兵士甲公爵对他的信用怎样？

    帕洛公爵只知道他是我手下的一个下级军官，前天还写信给我叫我把他开革；
我想他的信还在我的口袋里呢。

    兵士甲好，我们来搜。

    帕洛不瞒您说，我记得可不大清楚，也许它在我口袋里，也许我已经把它跟
公爵给我的其余的信一起放在营里归档了。

    兵士甲找到了；这儿是一张纸，我要不要向你读一遍？

    帕洛我不知道那是不是公爵的信。

    勃特拉姆我们的翻译装得真像。

    臣甲的确像极了。

    兵士甲“狄安娜，伯爵是个有钱的傻大少——”

    帕洛那不是公爵的信，那是我写给弗罗棱萨城里一位名叫狄安娜的良家少女
的信，我劝她不要受人家的引诱，因为有一个罗西昂伯爵看上了她，他是一个爱胡
调的傻哥儿，一天到晚转女人的念头。请您还是把这封信放好了吧。

    兵士甲不，对不起，我要把它先读一遍。

    帕洛我写这封信的用意是非常诚恳的，完全是为那个姑娘的前途着想；因为
我知道这个少年伯爵是个危险的淫棍，他是色中饿鬼，出名的破坏处女贞操的魔王。

    勃特拉姆该死的反复小人！

    兵士甲

    他要是向你盟山誓海，

你就向他把金银索讨；

    你须要半推半就，若即若离，

莫让他把温柔的滋味尝饱。

    一朝肥肉咽下了他嘴里，

你就永远不要想他付钞。

    一个军人这样对你忠告：

宁可和有年纪人来往，

不要跟少年郎们胡调。

    你的忠朴帕洛上。

    勃特拉姆我要把这首诗贴在他的额角上，拖着他游行全营，一路上用鞭子抽
他。

    臣甲爵爷，这就是您的忠心的朋友，那位精通万国语言的专家，全能百晓的
军人。

    勃特拉姆我以前最讨厌的是猫，现在他在我眼中就是一头猫。

    兵士甲朋友，照我们将军的面色看来，我们就要把你吊死了。

    帕洛将爷，无论如何，请您放我活命吧。我并不是怕死，可是因为我自知罪
孽深重，让我终其天年，也可以忏悔忏悔我的余生。将爷，把我关在地牢里，锁在
脚梏里，或者丢在无论什么地方都好，千万饶我一命！

    兵士甲要是你能够老老实实招认一切，也许还有通融余地。现在还是继续问
你那个杜曼上尉的事情吧。你已经回答过公爵对他的信用和他的勇气，现在要问你
他这人为人是否正直？

    帕洛他会在和尚庙里偷鸡蛋；讲到强奸妇女，没有人比得上他；毁誓破约，
是他的拿手本领；他撒起谎来，可以颠倒黑白，混淆是非；酗酒是他最大的美德，
因为他一喝酒便会烂醉如猪，倒在床上，不会再去闯祸，唯一倒霉的只有他的被褥，
可是人家知道他的脾气，总是把他抬到稻草上去睡。关于他的正直，我没有什么话
好说；凡是一个正人君子所不应该有的品质，他无一不备；凡是一个正人君子所应
该有的品质，他一无所有。

    臣甲他说得这样天花乱坠，我倒有点喜欢他起来了。

    勃特拉姆因为他把你形容得这样巧妙吗？该死的东西！他越来越像一头猫了。

    兵士甲你说他在军事上的才能怎样？

    帕洛我不愿说他的谎话，他曾经在英国戏班子里擂过鼓，此外我就不知道他
的军事上的经验了；他大概还在英国某一个迈兰德广场上教过民兵两人一排地站队。
我希望尽量说他的好话，可是这最后一件事我不能十分肯定。

    臣甲他的无耻厚脸，简直是空前绝后，这样一个宝货倒也是不可多得的。

    勃特拉姆该死！他真是一头猫。

    兵士甲他既然是这样一个卑鄙下流的人，那么我也不必问你贿赂能不能引诱
他反叛了。

    帕洛给他几毛钱，他就可以把他的灵魂连同世袭继承权全部出卖，永不反悔。

    兵士甲他还有一个兄弟，那另外一个杜曼上尉呢？

    臣乙他为什么要问起我？

    兵士甲他是怎样一个人？

    帕洛也是一个窠里的老鸦；从好的方面讲，他还不如他的兄长，从坏的方面
讲，可比他的哥哥胜过百倍啦。他的哥哥是出名的天字第一号的懦夫，可是在他面
前还要甘拜下风。退后起来，他比谁都奔得快；前进起来，他就寸步难移了。

    兵士甲要是放你活命，你愿不愿意作内应，把弗罗棱萨公爵出卖给我们？

    帕洛愿意愿意，连同他们的骑兵队长就是那个罗西昂伯爵。

    兵士甲我去对将军说，看他意思怎样。

    帕洛（旁白）我从此再不打什么倒霉鼓了！我原想冒充一下好汉，骗骗那个淫
荡的伯爵哥儿，结果闯下这样大的祸；可是谁又想得到在我去的那个地方会有埋伏
呢？

    兵士甲朋友，没有办法，你还是不免一死。将军说，你这样不要脸地泄漏了
自己军中的秘密，还把知名当世的贵人这样信口诋毁，留你在这世上，没有什么用
处，所以必须把你执行死刑。来，刽子手，把他的头砍下来。

    帕洛嗳哟，我的天爷爷，饶了我吧，倘然一定要我死，那么也让我亲眼看个
明白。

    兵士甲那倒可以允许你，让你向你的朋友们辞行吧。（解除帕洛脸上所缚之
布）你瞧一下，有没有你认识的人在这里？

    勃特拉姆早安，好队长！

    臣乙上帝祝福您，帕洛队长！

    臣甲上帝保佑您，好队长！

    臣乙队长，我要到法国去了，您要我带什么信去给拉佛大人吗？

    臣甲好队长，您肯不肯把您替罗西昂伯爵写给狄安娜小姐的情诗抄一份给我？
可惜我是个天字第一号的懦夫，否则我一定会强迫您默写出来；现在我不敢勉强您，
只好失陪了。（勃特拉姆及甲乙二臣下。）

    兵士甲队长，您这回可出了丑啦！

    帕洛明熗好躲，暗箭难防，任是英雄好汉，也逃不过诡计阴谋。

    兵士甲要是您能够发现一处除了荡妇淫娃之外没有其他的人居住的国土，您
倒很可以在那里南面称王，建立起一个无耻的国家来。再见，队长；我也要到法国
去，我们会在那里说起您的。（下。）

    帕洛管他哩，我还是我行我素。倘然我是个有几分心肝的人，今天一定会无
地自容；可是虽然我从此掉了官，我还是照旧吃吃喝喝，照样睡得烂熟，像我这样
的人，到处为家，什么地方不可以混混过去。可是我要警告那些喜欢吹牛的朋友们，
不要太吹过了头，有一天你会发现自己是一头驴子的。我的剑呀，你从此锈起来吧！
帕洛呀，不要害臊。厚着脸皮活下去吧！人家作弄你，你也可以靠让人家作弄走运，
天生世人，谁都不会没有办法的。他们都已经走了，待我追上前去。（下。）

SCENE IV. Florence. The Widow's house.

Enter HELENA, Widow, and DIANA
HELENA
That you may well perceive I have not wrong'd you,
One of the greatest in the Christian world
Shall be my surety; 'fore whose throne 'tis needful,
Ere I can perfect mine intents, to kneel:
Time was, I did him a desired office,
Dear almost as his life; which gratitude
Through flinty Tartar's bosom would peep forth,
And answer, thanks: I duly am inform'd
His grace is at Marseilles; to which place
We have convenient convoy. You must know
I am supposed dead: the army breaking,
My husband hies him home; where, heaven aiding,
And by the leave of my good lord the king,
We'll be before our welcome.
Widow
Gentle madam,
You never had a servant to whose trust
Your business was more welcome.
HELENA
Nor you, mistress,
Ever a friend whose thoughts more truly labour
To recompense your love: doubt not but heaven
Hath brought me up to be your daughter's dower,
As it hath fated her to be my motive
And helper to a husband. But, O strange men!
That can such sweet use make of what they hate,
When saucy trusting of the cozen'd thoughts
Defiles the pitchy night: so lust doth play
With what it loathes for that which is away.
But more of this hereafter. You, Diana,
Under my poor instructions yet must suffer
Something in my behalf.
DIANA
Let death and honesty
Go with your impositions, I am yours
Upon your will to suffer.
HELENA
Yet, I pray you:
But with the word the time will bring on summer,
When briers shall have leaves as well as thorns,
And be as sweet as sharp. We must away;
Our wagon is prepared, and time revives us:
All's well that ends well; still the fine's the crown;
Whate'er the course, the end is the renown.
Exeunt第四场弗罗棱萨。寡妇家中一室

    海丽娜、寡妇及狄安娜上。

    海丽娜为了使你们明白我并没有欺弄你们，一个当今最伟大的人物可以替我
作保证；在我还没有完成我的目的以前，我必须在他的宝座之前下跪。过去我曾经
替他做过一件和他的生命差不多同样宝贵的事，即使是蛮顽无情的鞑靼人，也不能
不由衷迸出一声感谢。有人告诉我他现在在马赛，正好有便人可以护送我们到那儿
去。我还要告诉你们知道，人家都当我已经死了。现在军队已经解散，我的丈夫也
回家去了，要是我能够得到上天的默佑和王上的准许，我们也可以早早回家。

    寡妇好夫人，请您相信我，我是您的最忠实的仆人，凡是您信托我做的事，
我无不乐意为您效劳。

    海丽娜大娘，你也可以相信我是你的一个最好的朋友，无时无刻不在想着怎
样才可以报答你的厚意。你应该相信，既然上天注定使你的女儿帮助我得到一个丈
夫，它也一定会使我帮助她称心如意地嫁一位如意郎君。我就是不懂男子们的心理，
他们竟会向一个被认为厌物的女子倾注他们的万种温情！沉沉的黑夜使他觉察不出
自己已经受人愚弄，抱着一个避之唯恐不及的蛇蝎，还以为就是那已经杳如黄鹤的
玉人，可是这些话我们以后再说吧。狄安娜，我还要请你为了我的缘故，稍为委屈
一下。

    狄安娜您无论吩咐我做什么事，只要不亏名节，我都愿意为您忍受一切，死
而无怨。

    海丽娜请再忍耐片时，转眼就是夏天了，野蔷薇快要绿叶满枝，遮掩了它周
身的棘刺；苦尽之后会有甘来。我们可以出发了，车子已经预备好，疲劳的精神也
已经养息过来。万事吉凶成败，须看后场结局；倘能如愿以偿，何患路途纡曲。
（同下。）
