There was another light in the room now, a thousand times brighter than the night-lights, and in the time we have taken to say this, it had been in all the drawers in the nursery, looking for Peter's shadow, rummaged the wardrobe and turned every pocket inside out. It was not really a light; it made this light by flashing about so quickly, but when it came to rest for a second you saw if was a fairy, no longer than your hand, but still growing. It was a girl called Tinker Bell exquisitely gowned in a skeleton leaf, cut low and square, through which her figure could be seen to the best advantage. She was slightly inclined to EMBONPOINT. (plump hourglass figure)
查看中文翻译
For a moment after Mr. and Mrs. Darling left the house the night-lights by the beds of the three children continued to burn clearly. They were awfully nice little night-lights, and one cannot help wishing that they could have kept awake to see Peter; but Wendy's light blinked and gave such a yawn that the other two yawned also, and before they could close their mouths all the three went out.
查看中文翻译
A moment after the fairy's entrance the window was blown open by the breathing of the little stars, and Peter dropped in. He had carried Tinker Bell part of the way, and his hand was still messy with the fairy dust.
查看中文翻译
The loveliest tinkle as of golden bells answered him. It is the fairy language. You ordinary children can never hear it, but if you were to hear it you would know that you had heard it once before.
查看中文翻译
If he thought at all, but I don't believe he ever thought, it was that he and his shadow, when brought near each other, would join like drops of water, and when they did not he was appalled. He tried to stick it on with soap from the bathroom, but that also failed. A shudder passed through Peter, and he sat on the floor and cried.
查看中文翻译
"Tinker Bell," he called softly, after making sure that the children were asleep, "Tink, where are you?" She was in a jug for the moment, and liking it extremely; she had never been in a jug before.
查看中文翻译
"Oh, do come out of that jug, and tell me, do you know where they put my shadow?"
查看中文翻译
Tink said that the shadow was in the big box. She meant the chest of drawers, and Peter jumped at the drawers, scattering their contents to the floor with both hands, as kings toss ha'pence to the crowd. In a moment he had recovered his shadow, and in his delight he forgot that he had shut Tinker Bell up in the drawer.
查看中文翻译
She was already sure that he must be Peter, but it did seem a comparatively short name.
查看中文翻译
She asked where he lived.
查看中文翻译
His sobs woke Wendy, and she sat up in bed. She was not alarmed to see a stranger crying on the nursery floor; she was only pleasantly interested.
查看中文翻译
"Wendy Moira Angel Darling," she replied with some satisfaction. "What is your name?"
查看中文翻译
"I'm so sorry," said Wendy Moira Angela.
查看中文翻译
"What's your name?" he asked.
查看中文翻译
"It doesn't matter," Peter gulped.
查看中文翻译
"Yes," he said rather sharply. He felt for the first time that it was a shortish name.
查看中文翻译
"Is that all?"
查看中文翻译
"Second to the right," said Peter, "and then straight on till morning."
查看中文翻译
"Peter Pan."
查看中文翻译
"What a funny address!'
查看中文翻译
Peter had a sinking. For the first time he felt that perhaps it was a funny address.
查看中文翻译
Peter could be exceeding polite also, having learned the grand manner at fairy ceremonies, and he rose and bowed to her beautifully. She was much pleased, and bowed beautifully to him from the bed.
查看中文翻译
"Boy," she said courteously, "why are you crying?"
查看中文翻译
"No, it isn't," he said.
查看中文翻译
"Don't have a mother," he said. Not only had he no mother, but he had not the slightest desire to have one. He thought them very over-rated persons. Wendy, however, felt at once that she was in the presence of a tragedy.
查看中文翻译
"Yes."
查看中文翻译
"I mean," Wendy said nicely, remembering that she was hostess, "is that what they put on the letters?"
查看中文翻译
He wished she had not mentioned letters.
查看中文翻译
"O Peter, no wonder you were crying," she said, and got out of bed and ran to him.
查看中文翻译
"But your mother gets letters?"
查看中文翻译
"I wasn't crying about mothers," he said rather indignantly. "I was crying because I can't get my shadow to stick on. Besides, I wasn't crying."
查看中文翻译
"It has come off?"
查看中文翻译
Then Wendy saw the shadow on the floor, looking so draggled, and she was frightfully sorry for Peter. "How awful!" she said, but she could not help smiling when she saw that he had been trying to stick it on with soap. How exactly like a boy!
查看中文翻译
"Don't get any letters," he said contemptuously.
查看中文翻译
Fortunately she knew at once what to do. "It must be sewn on," she said, just a little patronisingly.
查看中文翻译
"What's sewn?" he asked.
查看中文翻译
"You're dreadfully ignorant."
查看中文翻译
"No, I'm not."
查看中文翻译
"I daresay it will hurt a little," she warned him.
查看中文翻译
But she was exulting in his ignorance. "I shall sew it on for you, my little man," she said, though he was tall as herself, and she got out her housewife (sewing bag), and sewed the shadow on to Peter's foot.
查看中文翻译
"Oh, I shan't cry," said Peter, who was already of the opinion that he had never cried in his life. And he clenched his teeth and did not cry, and soon his shadow was behaving properly, though still a little creased.
查看中文翻译
"Perhaps I should have ironed it," Wendy said thoughtfully, but Peter, boylike, was indifferent to appearances, and he was now jumping about in the wildest glee. Alas, he had already forgotten that he owed his bliss to Wendy. He thought he had attached the shadow himself. "How clever I am!" he crowed rapturously, "oh, the cleverness of me!"
查看中文翻译
It is humiliating to have to confess that this conceit of Peter was one of his most fascinating qualities. To put it with brutal frankness, there never was a cockier boy.
查看中文翻译
But for the moment Wendy was shocked. "You conceit (braggart)," she exclaimed, with frightful sarcasm; "of course I did nothing!"
查看中文翻译
"You did a little," Peter said carelessly, and continued to dance.
查看中文翻译
To induce her to look up he pretended to be going away, and when this failed he sat on the end of the bed and tapped her gently with his foot. "Wendy," he said, "don't withdraw. I can't help crowing, Wendy, when I'm pleased with myself." Still she would not look up, though she was listening eagerly. "Wendy," he continued, in a voice that no woman has ever yet been able to resist, "Wendy, one girl is more use than twenty boys."
查看中文翻译
"A little!" she replied with hauteur (pride); "if I am no use I can at least withdraw," and she sprang in the most dignified way into bed and covered her face with the blankets.
查看中文翻译
Now Wendy was every inch a woman, though there were not very many inches, and she peeped out of the bed-clothes.
查看中文翻译
"I think it's perfectly sweet of you," she declared, "and I'll get up again," and she sat with him on the side of the bed. She also said she would give him a kiss if he liked, but Peter did not know what she meant, and he held out his hand expectantly.
查看中文翻译
"Yes, I do."
查看中文翻译
"Do you really think so, Peter?"
查看中文翻译
"Now," said he, "shall I give you a kiss?" and she replied with a slight primness, "If you please." She made herself rather cheap by inclining her face toward him, but he merely dropped an acorn button into her hand, so she slowly returned her face to where it had been before, and said nicely that she would wear his kiss on the chain around her neck. It was lucky that she did put it on that chain, for it was afterwards to save her life.
查看中文翻译
"I don't know," he replied uneasily, "but I am quite young." He really knew nothing about it, he had merely suspicions, but he said at a venture, "Wendy, I ran away the day I was born."
查看中文翻译
"Surely you know what a kiss it?" she asked, aghast.
查看中文翻译
"I shall know when you give it to me," he replied stiffly, and not to hurt his feeling she gave him a thimble.
查看中文翻译
When people in our set are introduced, it is customary for them to ask each other's age, and so Wendy, who always liked to do the correct thing, asked Peter how old he was. It was not really a happy question to has him; it was like an examination paper that asks grammar, when what you want to be asked is Kings of England.
查看中文翻译
"It was because I heard father and mother," he explained in a low voice, "talking about what I was to be when I became a man." He was extraordinarily agitated now. "I don't want ever to be a man," he said with passion. "I want always to be a little boy and to have fun. So I ran away to Kensington Gardens and lived a long long time among the fairies."
查看中文翻译
Wendy was quite surprised, but interested; and she indicated in the charming drawing-room manner, by a touch on her night-gown, that he could sit nearer her.
查看中文翻译
Wendy had lived such a home life that to know fairies struck her as quite delightful. She poured out questions about them, to his surprise, for they were rather a nuisance to him, getting in his way and so on, and indeed he sometimes had to give them a hiding (spanking). Still, he liked them on the whole, and he told her about the beginning of fairies.
查看中文翻译
She gave him a look of the most intense admiration, and he thought it was because he had run away, but it was really because he knew fairies.
查看中文翻译
"You see, Wendy, when the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies."
查看中文翻译
Tedious talk this, but being a stay-at-home she liked it.
查看中文翻译
"And so," he went on good-naturedly, "there ought to be one fairy for every boy and girl."
查看中文翻译
"Ought to be? Isn't there?"
查看中文翻译
"No. You see children know such a lot now, they soon don't believe in fairies, and every time a child says, `I don't believe in fairies,' there is a fairy somewhere that falls down dead."
查看中文翻译
"Well, that's Tink, that's the fairy language. I think I hear her too."
查看中文翻译
"She was here just now," he said a little impatiently. "You don't hear her, do you?" and they both listened.
查看中文翻译
Really, he thought they had now talked enough about fairies, and it struck him that Tinker Bell was keeping very quiet. "I can't think where she has gone to," he said, rising, and he called Tink by name. Wendy's heart went flutter with a sudden thrill.
查看中文翻译
"Peter," she cried, clutching him, "you don't mean to tell me that there is a fairy in this room!"
查看中文翻译
"The only sound I hear," said Wendy, "is like a tinkle of bells."
查看中文翻译
The sound come from the chest of drawers, and Peter made a merry face. No one could ever look quite so merry as Peter, and the loveliest of gurgles was his laugh. He had his first laugh still.
查看中文翻译
Wendy was not listening to him. "O Peter," she cried, "if she would only stand still and let me see her!"
查看中文翻译
"They hardly ever stand still," he said, but for one moment Wendy saw the romantic figure come to rest on the cuckoo clock. "O the lovely!" she cried, though Tink's face was still distorted with passion.
查看中文翻译
"Tink," said Peter amiably, "this lady ways she wishes you were her fairy."
查看中文翻译
He let poor Tink out of the drawer, and she flew about the nursery screaming with fury. "You shouldn't say such things," Peter retorted. "Of course I'm very sorry, but how could I know you were in the drawer?"
查看中文翻译
"What does she say, Peter?"
查看中文翻译
"Wendy," he whispered gleefully, "I do believe I shut her up in the drawer!"
查看中文翻译
Tinker Bell answered insolently.
查看中文翻译
He had to translate. "She is not very polite. She says you are a great (huge) ugly girl, and that she is my fairy.
查看中文翻译
To this Tink replied in these words, "You silly ass," and disappeared into the bathroom. "She is quite a common fairy," Peter explained apologetically, "she is called Tinker Bell because she mends the pots and kettles (tinker = tin worker)." (Similar to "cinder" plus "elle" to get Cinderella)
查看中文翻译
He tried to argue with Tink. "You know you can't be my fairy, Tink, because I am an gentleman and you are a lady."
查看中文翻译
"Oh, no; girls, you know, are much too clever to fall out of their prams."
查看中文翻译
This flattered Wendy immensely. "I think," she said, "it is perfectly lovely the way you talk about girls; John there just despises us."
查看中文翻译
"They are the children who fall out of their perambulators when the nurse is looking the other way. If they are not claimed in seven days they are sent far away to the Neverland to defray expenses. I'm captain."
查看中文翻译
"Who are they?"
查看中文翻译
"Yes," said cunning Peter, "but we are rather lonely. You see we have no female companionship."
查看中文翻译
"Are none of the others girls?"
查看中文翻译
"But where do you live mostly now?"
查看中文翻译
They were together in the armchair by this time, and Wendy plied him with more questions.
查看中文翻译
"With the lost boys."
查看中文翻译
"If you don't live in Kensington Gardens now --"
查看中文翻译
"What fun it must be!"
查看中文翻译
For reply Peter rose and kicked John out of bed, blankets and all; one kick. This seemed to Wendy rather forward for a first meeting, and she told him with spirit that he was not captain in her house. However, John continued to sleep so placidly on the floor that she allowed him to remain there. "And I know you meant to be kind," she said, relenting, "so you may give me a kiss."
查看中文翻译
"Sometimes I do still."
查看中文翻译
"You see, I don't know any stories. None of the lost boys knows any stories."
查看中文翻译
Again Tink replied, "You silly ass." Peter could not understand why, but Wendy understood, and she was just slightly disappointed when he admitted that he came to the nursery window not to see her but to listen to stories.
查看中文翻译
"If you wish to," said Wendy, keeping her head erect this time.
查看中文翻译
"Why, Tink?"
查看中文翻译
Peter thimbled her, and almost immediately she screeched.
查看中文翻译
"Oh dear," said the nice Wendy, "I don't mean a kiss, I mean a thimble."
查看中文翻译
"She says she will do that to you, Wendy, every time I give you a thimble."
查看中文翻译
"What is it, Wendy?"
查看中文翻译
"It was exactly as if someone were pulling my hair."
查看中文翻译
"What's that?"
查看中文翻译
"But why?"
查看中文翻译
And indeed Tink was darting about again, using offensive language.
查看中文翻译
"That must have been Tink. I never knew her so naughty before."
查看中文翻译
"Funny!" said Peter gravely. "Now shall I give you a thimble?"
查看中文翻译
For the moment she had forgotten his ignorance about kisses. "I thought you would want it back," he said a little bitterly, and offered to return her the thimble.
查看中文翻译
"It's like this." She kissed him.
查看中文翻译
"To tell the other boys."
查看中文翻译
"Let me go!" she ordered him.
查看中文翻译
"About the prince who couldn't find the lady who wore the glass slipper."
查看中文翻译
"Don't go Peter," she entreated, "I know such lots of stories."
查看中文翻译
"Peter," said Wendy excitedly, "that was Cinderella, and he found her, and they lived happily ever after."
查看中文翻译
Peter was so glad that he rose from the floor, where they had been sitting, and hurried to the window.
查看中文翻译
"Where are you going?" she cried with misgiving.
查看中文翻译
"Do you know," Peter asked "why swallows build in the eaves of houses? It is to listen to the stories. O Wendy, your mother was telling you such a lovely story."
查看中文翻译
Those were her precise words, so there can be no denying that it was she who first tempted him.
查看中文翻译
He came back, and there was a greedy look in his eyes now which ought to have alarmed her, but did not.
查看中文翻译
"How perfectly awful," Wendy said.
查看中文翻译
"Which story was it?"
查看中文翻译
"Oh, the stories I could tell to the boys!" she cried, and then Peter gripped her and began to draw her toward the window.
查看中文翻译
"Wendy, do come with me and tell the other boys."
查看中文翻译
"Oh," cried Wendy, "to see a mermaid!"
查看中文翻译
"I'll teach you how to jump on the wind's back, and then away we go."
查看中文翻译
"Oh, how lovely to fly."
查看中文翻译
"Oo!" she exclaimed rapturously.
查看中文翻译
"Oo," and her arms went out to him.
查看中文翻译
"Wendy," he said, the sly one, "you could tuck us in at night."
查看中文翻译
"Oo!"
查看中文翻译
"I'll teach you."
查看中文翻译
"Such long tails."
查看中文翻译
"None of us has ever been tucked in at night."
查看中文翻译
Of course she was very pleased to be asked, but she said, "Oh dear, I can't. Think of mummy! Besides, I can't fly."
查看中文翻译
She was wriggling her body in distress. It was quite as if she were trying to remain on the nursery floor.
查看中文翻译
"Mermaids! With tails?"
查看中文翻译
He had become frightfully cunning. "Wendy," he said, "how we should all respect you."
查看中文翻译
But he had no pity for her.
查看中文翻译
"Oo!"
查看中文翻译
"And you could darn our clothes, and make pockets for us. None of us has any pockets."
查看中文翻译
"And, Wendy, there are mermaids."
查看中文翻译
How could she resist. "Of course it's awfully fascinating!" she cried. "Peter, would you teach John and Michael to fly too?"
查看中文翻译
"Wendy, Wendy, when you are sleeping in your silly bed you might be flying about with me saying funny things to the stars."
查看中文翻译
John rubbed his eyes. "Then I shall get up," he said. Of course he was on the floor already. "Hallo," he said, "I am up!"
查看中文翻译
Michael was up by this time also, looking as sharp as a knife with six blades and a saw, but Peter suddenly signed silence. Their faces assumed the awful craftiness of children listening for sounds from the grown-up world. All was as still as salt. Then everything was right. No, stop! Everything was wrong. Nana, who had been barking distressfully all the evening, was quiet now. It was her silence they had heard.
查看中文翻译
"If you like," he said indifferently, and she ran to John and Michael and shook them. "Wake up," she cried, "Peter Pan has come and he is to teach us to fly."
查看中文翻译
"Out with the light! Hide! Quick!" cried John, taking command for the only time throughout the whole adventure. And thus when Liza entered, holding Nana, the nursery seemed quite its old self, very dark, and you would have sworn you heard its three wicked inmates breathing angelically as they slept. They were really doing it artfully from behind the window curtains.
查看中文翻译
Here Michael, encouraged by his success, breathed so loudly that they were nearly detected. Nana knew that kind of breathing, and she tried to drag herself out of Liza's clutches.
查看中文翻译
Liza was in a bad tamper, for she was mixing the Christmas puddings in the kitchen, and had been drawn from them, with a raisin still on her cheek, by Nana's absurd suspicions. She thought the best way of getting a little quiet was to take Nana to the nursery for a moment, but in custody of course.
查看中文翻译
"There, you suspicious brute," she said, not sorry that Nana was in disgrace. "They are perfectly safe, aren't they? Every one of the little angels sound asleep in bed. Listen to their gentle breathing."
查看中文翻译
She tied the unhappy dog up again, but do you think Nana ceased to bark? Bring master and missus home from the party! Why, that was just what she wanted. Do you think she cared whether she was whipped so long as her charges were safe? Unfortunately Liza returned to her puddings, and Nana, seeing that no help would come from her, strained and strained at the chain until at last she broke it. In another moment she had burst into the dining- room of 27 and flung up her paws to heaven, her most expressive way of making a communication. Mr. and Mrs. Darling knew at once that something terrible was happening in their nursery, and without a good-bye to their hostess they rushed into the street.
查看中文翻译
But Liza was dense. "No more of it, Nana," she said sternly, pulling her out of the room. "I warn you if bark again I shall go straight for master and missus and bring them home from the party, and then, oh, won't master whip you, just."
查看中文翻译
But it was now ten minutes since three scoundrels had been breathing behind the curtains, and Peter Pan can do a great deal in ten minutes.
查看中文翻译
"It's all right," John announced, emerging from his hiding- place. "I say, Peter, can you really fly?"
查看中文翻译
"You're so nippy at it," John said, "couldn't you do it very slowly once?"
查看中文翻译
"How topping!" said John and Michael.
查看中文翻译
He showed them again.
查看中文翻译
Peter did it both slowly and quickly. "I've got it now, Wendy!" cried John, but soon he found he had not. Not one of them could fly an inch, though even Michael was in words of two syllables, and Peter did not know A from Z.
查看中文翻译
Instead of troubling to answer him Peter flew around the room, taking the mantelpiece on the way.
查看中文翻译
We now return to the nursery.
查看中文翻译
It looked delightfully easy, and they tried it first from the floor and then from the beds, but they always went down instead of up.
查看中文翻译
"Yes, I'm sweet, oh, I am sweet!" said Peter, forgetting his manners again.
查看中文翻译
"You just think lovely wonderful thoughts," Peter explained, "and they lift you up in the air."
查看中文翻译
"I say, how do you do it?" asked John, rubbing his knee. He was quite a practical boy.
查看中文翻译
"How sweet!" cried Wendy.
查看中文翻译
"I say," cried John, "why shouldn't we all go out?"
查看中文翻译
They were not nearly so elegant as Peter, they could not help kicking a little, but their heads were bobbing against the ceiling, and there is almost nothing so delicious as that. Peter gave Wendy a hand at first, but had to desist, Tink was so indignant.
查看中文翻译
"Look at me!"
查看中文翻译
"Look at me!"
查看中文翻译
They were all on their beds, and gallant Michael let go first. He did not quite mean to let go, but he did it, and immediately he was borne across the room.
查看中文翻译
"Oh, ripping!"
查看中文翻译
"Look at me!"
查看中文翻译
Of course it was to this that Peter had been luring them.
查看中文翻译
"Now just wiggle your shoulders this way," he said, "and let go."
查看中文翻译
John let go and met Wendy near the bathroom.
查看中文翻译
"I flewed!" he screamed while still in mid-air.
查看中文翻译
"Oh, lovely!"
查看中文翻译
Up and down they went, and round and round. Heavenly was Wendy's word.
查看中文翻译
Of course Peter had been trifling with them, for no one can fly unless the fairy dust has been blown on him. Fortunately, as we have mentioned, one of his hands was messy with it, and he blew some on each of them, with the most superb results.
查看中文翻译
"Mermaids!" said Peter again.
查看中文翻译
Michael was ready: he wanted to see how long it took him to do a billion miles. But Wendy hesitated.
查看中文翻译
"Oo!"
查看中文翻译
"And there are pirates."
查看中文翻译
"Pirates," cried John, seizing his Sunday hat, "let us go at once."
查看中文翻译
In a tremble they opened the street door. Mr. Darling would have rushed upstairs, but Mrs. Darling signed him to go softly. She even tried to make her heart go softly.
查看中文翻译
It was just at this moment that Mr. and Mrs. Darling hurried with Nana out of 27. They ran into the middle of the street to look up at the nursery window; and, yes, it was still shut, but the room was ablaze with light, and most heart-gripping sight of all, they could see in shadow on the curtain three little figures in night attire circling round and round, not on the floor but in the air.
查看中文翻译
Not three figures, four!
查看中文翻译
Will they reach the nursery in time? If so, how delightful for them, and we shall all breathe a sign of relief, but there will be no story. On the other hand, if they are not in time, I solemnly promise that it will all come right in the end.
查看中文翻译
They would have reached the nursery in time had it not been that the little stars were watching them. Once again the stars blew the window open, and that smallest star of all called out:
查看中文翻译
"Cave, Peter!"
查看中文翻译
Then Peter knew that there was not a moment to lose. "Come," he cried imperiously, and soared out at once into the night, followed by John and Michael and Wendy.
查看中文翻译
Mr. and Mrs. Darling and Nana rushed into the nursery too late. The birds were flown.
查看中文翻译
