就我的脾氣而言，我的任務艱巨，我曉得你們必定傷心痛苦。

Yet must I bow and obey, and deliver the will of our monarch;

然而我必須屈膝服從，傳達主上的旨意;

Namely, that all your lands, and dwellings, and cattle of all kinds forfeited be to the crown;

就是說你們所有被抄沒的土地，房舍和牲畜都要歸于王權;

and that you yourselves from this province be transported to other lands.

從這個行省來的你們要轉到他地。

God grant you may dwell there ever as faithful subjects, a happy and peaceable people!

上帝準許你們在那里定居，永世為忠實的奴仆，快樂祥和的人們!

Prisoners now I declare you; for such is his Majesty's pleasure!”

現(xiàn)在我宣布你們是囚徒;因為這是陛下的意思!”

As, when the air is serene in the sultry solstice of summer, suddenly gathers a storm,

在濕熱難耐的夏日里，空氣寧靜安謐，突然間暴風雨驟起，

and the deadly sling of the hailstones beats down the farmer's corn in the field and shatters his windows,

雹塊如刀，將農(nóng)夫地里的谷物砍倒，擊打窗扉，

hiding the sun, and strewing the ground with thatch from the house roofs, bellowing fly the herds, and seek to break their inclosure;

太陽躲起來了，將屋頂?shù)拿┎菹圃诘厣?，畜群仰天咆哮，極力沖破圍欄;

So on the hearts of the people descended the words of the speaker.

喇叭里有幾句話說到人們心坎。

Silent a moment, they stood in speechless wonder, and then rose louder and ever louder a wail of sorrow and anger,

在無語的驚詫中人們默默站了一會兒，然后哀號和憤怒聲越來越大，

And, by one impulse moved, they madly rushed to the doorway.

隨著一人沖動地亂竄，他們瘋了似的沖到門口。
