lillibullero n.1.英國勒里不利羅〔1688年政變時流行的一首諷刺愛...

lilliput

The six scoundrels were sitting grumbling under a sail in the forecastle ; ashore we could see the gigs made fast , and a man sitting in each , hard by where the river runs in . one of them was whistling lillibullero 那六個壞蛋正坐在帆下的水手艙里嘀嘀咕咕我們可以看到兩只劃子系在岸邊,靠近小河入海口,每只劃子上都坐著個人。

Had they gone an told silver , all might have turned out differently ; but they had their orders , i suppose and decided to sit quietly where they were and hark back again to lillibullero 要是他們跑去報告西爾弗,一切就大為不同了但我想他們已有指示,故而決定仍靜靜地坐在原地,又吹起了那支利利布雷洛。

This second trip fairly aroused the watchers along shore . lillibullero was dropped again ; and just before we lost sight of them behind the little point , one of them whipped ashore and disappeared 而就在我們要繞過岸線上的小拐角從他們的視線中消失的時候,他們中的一個拔腿向岸上跑去,一下子就沒影了。

The two who were left guarding their boats seemed in a bustle at our appearance ; lillibullero stopped off , and i could see the pair discussing what they ought to do 那兩個留下來看劃子的人一看到我們不由一陣慌亂,利利布雷洛停下不吹了,我看到這兩個家伙正在交頭接耳。
