　　J:威廉華茲華斯的詩真是太美了，以至於我難以把目光從他的詩上移開。

　　V:華茲華斯的詩歌充滿了情感，就像這首《狐獨的割麥女》。當他那個年代的很多詩人還在用浮誇的風格描寫古代英雄時，華茲華斯卻關窪自然、孩子、窮人和普通人。

　　J:確實是，他用樸實的語言表達個人感情。他對詩歌的定義是"強烈感情的自然流露."

　　V: 一個人的興趣是受到環境的影響的。故鄉壯麗的風景深深地打動了華茲華斯，他對自然充滿了 愛。

　　J：是的，這發生在他的第二次法國之行。華茲華斯和阿內特瓦隆關係暖眛，並育 有一個私生女安妮卡洛琳。

　　V: The affair was basis of one of his poems, but otherwise Wordsworth did his best to hide the affair from posterity.

　　V：這段感情是他的一首詩歌的靈感來源，但除此之外，華茲華斯極力向他的後人隱 瞞這一段感情。

　　J; After his journeys, Wordsworth spent several aimless and unhappy years until he met Coleridge in 1795.

　　J:這段旅程結束後，華茲華斯度過了幾年渾渾噩噩、鬱鬱寡歡的時光，直到他在 1795年遇到柯勒律治。

　　J:和大自然的親密接觸激發了華茲華斯的靈感，在柯勒律治的鼓勵下，華玆華斯和 他合寫了著名的《抒情歌謠集》。

　　V： Lyrical Ballads is an important work in the English Romantic Movement, But the volume had neither the name of Wordsworth nor Coleridge as the author. The second edition, published in 1800，had only Wordsworth listed as the author

　　M:John Milton is a genius. His masterpieces Paradise Lost、Paradise Regained and Samson Agonistes are pearls of world literature.

　　M:約翰彌爾頓真是個天才。他的傑作 < 失樂園》、<復樂園》和《力士參孫 > 是世 界文學的明珠。

　　L:I cannot agree with you more. The works of today’s poets are not half as brilliant as those of Milton. And he excels in languages studying, too. He can speak and write in Greek, Latin, and Italian.

　　L:我非常同意你的觀點。現在很多詩人的作品 遠不如彌爾頓的精彩。彌爾頓還精通多種語 言。他通曉希臘語、拉丁語和義大利語。

　　L: While Milton was a hardworking student, he was also argumentative. Only a year later, in 1626, he got suspended after a dispute with his tutor.

　　L:雖然彌爾頓是一個刻苦學習的學生，他卻喜歡和老師爭論。入學後僅一年，也就 是1926年，由於與導師產生了矛盾，他被迫輟學。

　　M; During his temporary return to London, Milton attended plays, and began his first forays into poetry.

　　M:在彌爾頓暫返倫敦的這段時間裡，他參加了戲劇演出，並開始嘗試寫詰。

　　L: At his return to Cambridge, Milton was assigned a new tutor. But life at Cambridge was still not easy on Milton; he felt he was disliked by many of his fellow students and he was dissatisfied with the curriculum.

　　L:回到劍橋後，校方為彌爾頓重選了 一個新導師。但彌爾頓仍感到在劍橋大學生活 不易。他覺得許多同學都不喜歡他，對課程設定也不滿意。

　　M: But he did learn a lot in Cambridge. It was at Cambridge that he composed “On the Morning of Christ’s Nativity”，

　　M:但是彌爾頓的確在劍橋學到了很多東西。《基督誕生的早晨》這首諳正是他在劍 橋創作的。

　　L:You’re quite right. Upon graduation in 1632 with a Master of Arts degree, he retired to the family homes, for years of private study and literary composition.

　　L:你說得很對。1632年畢業拿到文學學士學位後，彌爾頓退隱家中，花費數年時 間自學和創作文學。

　　M:That’s true. Milton had given up his plan to become a priest. He adopted no profession but spent six years at leisure in his father’s home, writing literary works.

　　M:的確如此。彌爾頓放棄了成為牧師的計劃。他沒有找任何工作，6年來的閒暇時 光都待在父親的房子裡，進行文學創作。

　　L:同時彌爾頓決定加強語言學習，包括希伯來語的學習。17世紀30年代晚期，他 去了很多國家旅遊，並沉浸於所到國家的歷史和文化之中。

　　M:He met many prominent learned men during the travelling including Galileo Galilei.

　　M:在旅行中，他遇到了包括伽利略伽利雷在內的很多傑出的博學之人。

　　L:Yes, he also had a long and meaningful conversation with Galileo Galilei. Their conversation was recorded in his celebrated plea for a free speech and free discussion, AREOPAGITICA ***On Liberty***.

　　L:是的。他還和伽利略伽利雷有過一次長時間富有意義的談話。他們的對話被記 錄在彌爾頓著名的呼籲自由演講和討論的《論自由》一書中。

　　M:And I remember that there are references to Galileo’s telescope in Paradise Lost.

　　M:我還記得彌爾頓在《失樂園》中也談到了伽利略的望遠鏡。

　　L:The intense work of translating and writing created much strain on his eyes and by 1652 he was entirely blind and relied on the assistance of other people,

　　L:翻譯和寫作的高強度工作使他的眼睛不堪重負，到了 1652年，他已經完全失明瞭， 要依賴別人的幫助才能工作。

　　M: But it seems that Milton was not unduly grieved by his loss of sight. Instead, blindness helped him to stimulate his verbal richness.

　　M:但是彌爾頓對於自己的失明似乎並不怎麼傷心。相反，失明有肋於刺激他語言的 表達。

　　L： He sacrificed his sight, and then he remembered his first desire, that of being a poet. During the plague years he left London and lived in a cottage in the village of Chalfont St Giles, Buckinghamshire.

　　L:彌爾頓雖然失明瞭，但是他想起了他最初的夢想，那就是成為一名詩人。在倫敦 大瘡疫期間，他離開倫敦，住在了白金漢郡查爾芬特聖賈爾斯村子的一個小屋裡。

　　M： It was here that Milton prepared for publication Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained.

　　M:正是在這裡，彌爾頓創作書了***失樂園》和《復樂園》，並準備出版。
