Slightly was the first to speak. "This is no bird," he said in a scared voice. "I think this must be a lady."
查看中文翻译
Foolish Tootles was standing like a conqueror over Wendy's body when the other boys sprang, armed, from their trees.
查看中文翻译
They were sorry for him, but sorrier for themselves, and when he took a step nearer them they turned from him.
查看中文翻译
"And we have killed her," Nibs said hoarsely.
查看中文翻译
They all whipped off their caps.
查看中文翻译
"Now I see," Curly said: "Peter was bringing her to us." He threw himself sorrowfully on the ground.
查看中文翻译
Overhead Tinker Bell shouted "Silly ass!" and darted into hiding. The others did not hear her. They had crowded round Wendy, and as they looked a terrible silence fell upon the wood. If Wendy's heart had been beating they would all have heard it.
查看中文翻译
"You are too late," he cried proudly, "I have shot the Wendy. Peter will be so pleased with me."
查看中文翻译
"A lady?" said Tootles, and fell a-trembling.
查看中文翻译
"A lady to take care of us at last," said one of the twins, "and you have killed her!"
查看中文翻译
Tootles' face was very white, but there was a dignity about him now that had never been there before.
查看中文翻译
Again came that ringing crow, and Peter dropped in front of them. "Greetings, boys," he cried, and mechanically they saluted, and then again was silence.
查看中文翻译
"Don't go," they called in pity.
查看中文翻译
"I did it," he said, reflecting. "When ladies used to come to me in dreams, I said, `Pretty mother, pretty mother.' But when at last she really came, I shot her."
查看中文翻译
"Great news, boys," he cried, "I have brought at last a mother for you all."
查看中文翻译
It was at this tragic moment that they heard a sound which made the heart of every one of them rise to his mouth. They heard Peter crow.
查看中文翻译
Still no sound, except a little thud from Tootles as he dropped on his knees.
查看中文翻译
"Peter!" they cried, for it was always thus that he signalled his return.
查看中文翻译
He moved slowly away.
查看中文翻译
"I am back," he said hotly, "why do you not cheer?"
查看中文翻译
He frowned.
查看中文翻译
"I must," he answered, shaking; "I am so afraid of Peter."
查看中文翻译
"Hide her," they whispered, and gathered hastily around Wendy. But Tootles stood aloof.
查看中文翻译
They opened their mouths, but the cheers would not come. He overlooked it in his haste to tell the glorious tidings.
查看中文翻译
He thought of hopping off in a comic sort of way till he was out of sight of her, and then never going near the spot any more. They would all have been glad to follow if he had done this.
查看中文翻译
So they all stood back, and let him see, and after he had looked for a little time he did not know what to do next.
查看中文翻译
"Ah me!" once voice said, and another said, "Oh, mournful day."
查看中文翻译
Tootles rose. "Peter," he said quietly, "I will show her to you," and when the others would still have hidden her he said, "Back, twins, let Peter see."
查看中文翻译
"Whose arrow?" he demanded sternly.
查看中文翻译
"She is dead," he said uncomfortably. "Perhaps she is frightened at being dead."
查看中文翻译
Tootles did not flinch. He bared his breast. "Strike, Peter," he said firmly, "strike true."
查看中文翻译
Twice did Peter raise the arrow, and twice did his hand fall. "I cannot strike," he said with awe, "there is something stays my hand."
查看中文翻译
But there was the arrow. He took it from her heart and faced his band.
查看中文翻译
"Oh, dastard hand," Peter said, and he raised the arrow to use it as a dagger.
查看中文翻译
"Mine, Peter," said Tootles on his knees.
查看中文翻译
"Have you not seen her?" asked Peter, becoming troubled. "She flew this way."
查看中文翻译
Wonderful to relate (tell), Wendy had raised her arm. Nibs bent over her and listened reverently. "I think she said, `Poor Tootles,'" he whispered.
查看中文翻译
Then Peter knelt beside her and found his button. You remember she had put it on a chain that she wore round her neck.
查看中文翻译
"Listen to Tink," said Curly, "she is crying because the Wendy lives."
查看中文翻译
"See," he said, "the arrow struck against this. It is the kiss I gave her. It has saved her life."
查看中文翻译
Peter did not hear him. He was begging Wendy to get better quickly, so that he could show her the mermaids. Of course she could not answer yet, being still in a frightful faint; but from overhead came a wailing note.
查看中文翻译
"It is she," he cried, "the Wendy lady, see, her arm!"
查看中文翻译
Then they had to tell Peter of Tink's crime, and almost never had they seen him look so stern.
查看中文翻译
"I remember kisses," Slightly interposed quickly, "let me see it. Ay, that's a kiss."
查看中文翻译
Slightly cried instantly, "The Wendy lady lives."
查看中文翻译
"She lives," Peter said briefly.
查看中文翻译
All looked at him in wonder, save Nibs, who fortunately looked at Wendy.
查看中文翻译
"Yes, there is," cried Peter. "Let us build a little house round her."
查看中文翻译
"Listen, Tinker Bell," he cried, "I am your friend no more. Begone from me for ever."
查看中文翻译
"Ay, she will die," Slightly admitted, "but there is no way out."
查看中文翻译
She flew on to his shoulder and pleaded, but he brushed her off. Not until Wendy again raised her arm did he relent sufficiently to say, "Well, not for ever, but for a whole week."
查看中文翻译
"But if she lies there," Tootles said, "she will die."
查看中文翻译
"Ay," said Slightly, "that is what one does with ladies."
查看中文翻译
"No, no," Peter said, "you must not touch her. It would not be sufficiently respectful."
查看中文翻译
"That," said Slightly, "is was I was thinking."
查看中文翻译
But what to do with Wendy in her present delicate state of health?
查看中文翻译
"Let us carry her down into the house," Curly suggested.
查看中文翻译
They were all delighted. "Quick," he ordered them, "bring me each of you the best of what we have. Gut our house. Be sharp."
查看中文翻译
Do you think Tinker Bell was grateful to Wendy for raising her arm? Oh dear no, never wanted to pinch her so much. Fairies indeed are strange, and Peter, who understood them best, often cuffed (slapped) them.
查看中文翻译
And then John would rub his eyes and mutter, "It is true, we did fly."
查看中文翻译
"Hullo, Peter," they said.
查看中文翻译
In a moment they were as busy as tailors the night before a wedding. They skurried this way and that, down for bedding, up for firewood, and while they were at it, who should appear but John and Michael. As they dragged along the ground they fell asleep standing, stopped, woke up, moved another step and slept again.
查看中文翻译
"John," Michael proposed, "let us wake her and get her to make supper for us," but as he said it some of the other boys rushed on carrying branches for the building of the house. "Look at them!" he cried.
查看中文翻译
"Yes."
查看中文翻译
"John, John," Michael would cry, "wake up! Where is Nana, John, and mother?"
查看中文翻译
You may be sure they were very relieved to find Peter.
查看中文翻译
"Hullo," replied Peter amicably, though he had quite forgotten them. He was very busy at the moment measuring Wendy with his feet to see how large a house she would need. Of course he meant to leave room for chairs and a table. John and Michael watched him.
查看中文翻译
"Is Wendy asleep?" they asked.
查看中文翻译
"Curly," said Peter in his most captainy voice, "see that these boys help in the building of the house."
查看中文翻译
"Ay, ay, sir."
查看中文翻译
"Ay, ay," said Slightly at once, and disappeared, scratching his head. But he knew Peter must be obeyed, and he returned in a moment, wearing John's hat and looking solemn.
查看中文翻译
"For Wendy?" John said, aghast. "Why, she is only a girl!"
查看中文翻译
The difference between him and the other boys at such a time was that they knew it was make-believe, while to him make-believe and true were exactly the same thing. This sometimes troubled them, as when they had to make-believe that they had had their dinners.
查看中文翻译
"For the Wendy," said Curly.
查看中文翻译
"You? Wendy's servants!"
查看中文翻译
"Ay," said Slightly, "that is how a house is built; it all comes back to me."
查看中文翻译
"That," explained Curly, "is why we are her servants."
查看中文翻译
Peter thought of everything. "Slightly," he cried, "fetch a doctor."
查看中文翻译
"Build a house?" exclaimed John.
查看中文翻译
"Yes," said Peter, "and you also. Away with them."
查看中文翻译
The astounded brothers were dragged away to hack and hew and carry. "Chairs and a fender (fireplace) first," Peter ordered. "Then we shall build a house round them."
查看中文翻译
"Please, sir," said Peter, going to him, "are you a doctor?"
查看中文翻译
"Yes, my little man," anxiously replied Slightly, who had chapped knuckles.
查看中文翻译
"Please, sir," Peter explained, "a lady lies very ill."
查看中文翻译
If they broke down in their make-believe he rapped them on the knuckles.
查看中文翻译
She was lying at their feet, but Slightly had the sense not to see her.
查看中文翻译
"Tut, tut, tut," said Slightly, "this has cured her."
查看中文翻译
"I will put a glass thing in her mouth," said Slightly, and he made-believe to do it, while Peter waited. It was an anxious moment when the glass thing was withdrawn.
查看中文翻译
"If only we knew," said one, "the kind of house she likes best."
查看中文翻译
"How is she?" inquired Peter.
查看中文翻译
"Tut, tut, tut," he said, "where does she lie?"
查看中文翻译
"I will call again in the evening," Slightly said; "give her beef tea out of a cup with a spout to it"; but after he had returned the hat to John he blew big breaths, which was his habit on escaping from a difficulty.
查看中文翻译
"In yonder glade."
查看中文翻译
In the meantime the wood had been alive with the sound of axes; almost everything needed for a cosy dwelling already lay at Wendy's feet.
查看中文翻译
"I am glad!" Peter cried.
查看中文翻译
They gurgled with joy at this, for by the greatest good luck the branches they had brought were sticky with red sap, and all the ground was carpeted with moss. As they rattled up the little house they broke into song themselves:
查看中文翻译
"Perhaps she is going to sing in her sleep," said Peter. "Wendy, sing the kind of house you would like to have."
查看中文翻译
"Oh, really next I think I'll have Gay windows all about, With roses peeping in, you know, And babies peeping out."
查看中文翻译
"We've built the little walls and roof And made a lovely door, So tell us, mother Wendy, What are you wanting more?"
查看中文翻译
"I wish I had a pretty house, The littlest ever seen, With funny little red walls And roof of mossy green."
查看中文翻译
"Her mouth opens," cried a third, looking respectfully into it. "Oh, lovely!"
查看中文翻译
To this she answered greedily:
查看中文翻译
"Roses," cried Peter sternly.
查看中文翻译
"Peter," shouted another, "she is moving in her sleep."
查看中文翻译
Immediately, without opening her eyes, Wendy began to sing:
查看中文翻译
With a blow of their fists they made windows, and large yellow leaves were the blinds. But roses --?
查看中文翻译
Quickly they made-believe to grow the loveliest roses up the walls.
查看中文翻译
Babies?
查看中文翻译
Peter, seeing this to be a good idea, at once pretended that it was his own. The house was quite beautiful, and no doubt Wendy was very cosy within, though, of course, they could no longer see her. Peter strode up and down, ordering finishing touches. Nothing escaped his eagle eyes. Just when it seemed absolutely finished:
查看中文翻译
"We've made the roses peeping out, The babes are at the door, We cannot make ourselves, you know, 'cos we've been made before."
查看中文翻译
They were very ashamed, but Tootles gave the sole of his shoe, and it made an excellent knocker.
查看中文翻译
"There's no knocker on the door," he said.
查看中文翻译
Absolutely finished now, they thought.
查看中文翻译
"It certainly does need a chimney," said John importantly. This gave Peter an idea. He snatched the hat off John's head, knocked out the bottom (top), and put the hat on the roof. The little house was so pleased to have such a capital chimney that, as if to say thank you, smoke immediately began to come out of the hat.
查看中文翻译
To prevent Peter ordering babies they hurried into song again:
查看中文翻译
Not of bit of it. "There's no chimney," Peter said; "we must have a chimney."
查看中文翻译
Of course Slightly was the first to get his word in. "Wendy lady," he said rapidly, "for you we built this house."
查看中文翻译
He was glad no one asked him what first impressions are; they were all too busy looking their best.
查看中文翻译
He knocked politely, and now the wood was as still as the children, not a sound to be heard except from Tinker Bell, who was watching from a branch and openly sneering.
查看中文翻译
"Lovely, darling house," Wendy said, and they were the very words they had hoped she would say.
查看中文翻译
"All look your best," Peter warned them; "first impressions are awfully important."
查看中文翻译
She looked properly surprised, and this was just how they had hoped she would look.
查看中文翻译
Now really and truly it was finished. Nothing remained to do but to knock.
查看中文翻译
"Where am I?" she said.
查看中文翻译
The door opened and a lady came out. It was Wendy. They all whipped off their hats.
查看中文翻译
"And we are your children," cried the twins.
查看中文翻译
"Oh, say you're pleased," cried Nibs.
查看中文翻译
What the boys were wondering was, would any one answer the knock? If a lady, what would she be like?
查看中文翻译
"Oh dear!" Wendy said, "you see, I feel that is exactly what I am."
查看中文翻译
"Ought I?" Wendy said, all shining. "Of course it's frightfully fascinating, but you see I am only a little girl. I have no real experience."
查看中文翻译
"That doesn't matter," said Peter, as if he were the only person present who knew all about it, though he was really the one who knew least. "What we need is just a nice motherly person."
查看中文翻译
Then all went on their knees, and holding out their arms cried, "O Wendy lady, be our mother."
查看中文翻译
"It is, it is," they all cried; "we saw it at once."
查看中文翻译
"Very well," she said, "I will do my best. Come inside at once, you naughty children; I am sure your feet are damp. And before I put you to bed I have just time to finish the story of Cinderella.
查看中文翻译
In they went; I don't know how there was room for them, but you can squeeze very tight in the Neverland. And that was the first of the many joyous evenings they had with Wendy. By and by she tucked them up in the great bed in the home under the trees, but she herself slept that night in the little house, and Peter kept watch outside with drawn sword, for the pirates could be heard carousing far away and the wolves were on the prowl. The little house looked so cosy and safe in the darkness, with a bright light showing through its blinds, and the chimney smoking beautifully, and Peter standing on guard. After a time he fell asleep, and some unsteady fairies had to climb over him on their way home from an orgy. Any of the other boys obstructing the fairy path at night they would have mischiefed, but they just tweaked Peter's nose and passed on.
