*11.EEB
第十一首
Selected from EBB _The sonnets from the Portuguese_, No. XI
这么说，把十爱十情作为我的名份，
And therefore if to love can be desert,
我还不是完全不配承受。虽然，
I am not all unworthy. Cheeks as pale
你看，两颊那么苍白，那摇晃的
As these you see, and trembling knees that fail
双膝仿佛负担不了沉重的心房；
To bear the burden of a hea十vy heart. --
这疲乏的行吟生涯也曾想望过
This weary minstrel-life that once was girt
把奥纳斯山峰攀登，却只落得一片
To climb Aornus, and can scare a十vail
辛酸的哀吟，怎好去跟谷莺竞奏？－－
to pipe now 'gainst the valley nightingale
干吗提这些来着？啊，亲十爱十的，
A melancholy music, why advert
不用讲，我高攀不上，不配在你身边
To these things? O belov\`ed, it is plain
占一个位置。可是，就因为我十爱十你，
I am not of thy worth nor for thy place!
这片十爱十情提拔我，让我抬起了头、
And yet, because I love thee, I obtain
承受着光明，许我继续活下去，
From that same love this vindicating grace,
哪怕是怎样枉然，也要十爱十你到底；
To live on still in love, and yet in vain, ...
也要祝福你－－即使拒绝你在当面。
To bless thee, yet renounce thee to thy face.
