13 One of the Populace 09
原文内容
10 句英文原文
" Jist ain't I?" " Haven't you had any dinner?" said Sara.
" No dinner," more hoarsely still and with more shuffling.
" Nor yet no bre'fast-- nor yet no supper.
" Dunno.
" If I'm a princess," she was saying," if I'm a princess-- when they were poor and driven from their thrones-- they always shared-- with the populace-- if they met one poorer and hungrier than themselves.
中文翻译
“难道我不是吗?” “你还没吃晚饭吗?” 萨拉说道。
“没有晚饭,”声音更加嘶哑,伴随着更多拖沓的脚步声。
既没有早餐,也没有晚餐。
不,没什么。"从什么时候开始的?" 萨拉问道。
“不知道。
今天什么都没得到——无处可去。
我已经砍了又砍。"
仅仅是看着她,就让萨拉感到更加饥饿和虚弱。
但那些奇怪的小念头在她脑海中翻腾,她正在自言自语,尽管她内心感到十分痛苦。
“如果我是公主,”她说道,“如果我是公主——当她们贫穷并被赶下王位时——她们总是会分享——与民众分享——如果她们遇到比自己更贫穷、更饥饿的人。”
