Four Passages From the Dramatic Writings of Shakespeare 莎士比亚戏剧精选四段 (1) Twelfth Night II.iv.103-117 [DUKE OF ILLYRIA] What dost thou know? [VIOLA] Too well what love women to men may owe. In faith, they are as true of heart as we. My father had a daughter loved a man As it might be perhaps, were I a woman, I should your lordship. [DUKE OF ILLYRIA] And whats her history? [VIOLA] A blank, my lord. She never told her love, But let concealment, like a worm ithbud, Feed on her damask cheek. She pined in thought; And, with a green and yellow melancholy, She sat like Patience on a monument, Smiling at grief. Was not this love indeed? We men may say more, swear more; but indeed Our shows are more than will; for still we prove Much in our vows but little in our love. 男人的爱与女人的爱 [伊利里亚公爵] 您深知的是什么? [薇奥拉] 深知女人可以如何热爱男人。 真的，她们象我们一样真心。 当年我爹有个女儿爱上个郎， 正如，假如我是女的，也许我会爱上爵爷您。 [伊利里亚公爵] 结果她的遭遇呢? [薇奥拉] 是片空白。她没有透露她的爱意， 却让这秘密，象蓓蕾中的害虫， 吃她淡红的面颊来养生。哀思中憔悴了， 带着又绿又黄的忧郁， 她如墓碑般有耐性，坐着， 看着悲伤微笑。那还不是真爱吗? 我们男的说更多话、发更多誓；实际上却虚饰多于真情； 常见誓言夸张， 情意有限。 【作者简介】 威廉莎士比亚,英国历史上，乃至世界历史上最伟大的戏剧大师，他于1564年出生于英国中部的斯特拉夫镇.十三四岁时因家庭破产而辍学。之后，他先后当过士兵、教师、剧院的杂役、演员和剧团股东。传说他出生的日期为四月二十三日。莎士比亚的语言异常凝美，内涵也无比丰富。 Why, How Know You That I Am in Love? [SPEED] Marry, by these special marks: first, you have learned, like Sir Proteus,to wreathe your arms like a malcontent, to relish a love-song like a robin-red-breast, to walk alone like one that had the pestilence, to sign like a schoolboy that had lost his A B C, to weep like a young wench that had buried her grandam, to fast like one that takes diet, to watch like one that fears robbing, to speak puling like a beggar at Hallowmas. You were wont, when you laughed, to crow like a cock; when you walked, to walk like one of the lions; When you fasted, it was presently after dinner; when you looked sadly, it was for want of money. And now you are metamorphosed with a mistress, that when I look on you, I can hardly think you my master. 哟，您怎知我患了相思病? [史比德] 哎呀，就是从这些特殊的迹象嘛：首先，你学会
