莎士比亚《无事生非》:
It is the witness still of excellency,To put a strange face on his own perfection.
越是本领超人一等,越是口口声声不满意自己的才能。
原文:
PEDRO Come Balthazar,we'll hear that song again.
BALTHAZAR O good my lord,tax not so bad a voice To shander music any more than once.
PEDRO It is the witness still of excellency,To put a strange face on his own perfection.I pray thee sing,and let me woo no more.
彼 德 罗 来,鲍尔萨泽,我们要把那首歌再听一遍。
鲍尔萨泽 啊,我的好殿下,像我这样的坏嗓子,把好好的音乐糟蹋了一次,也就够了,不要再叫我献丑了吧!
彼 德 罗 越是本领超人一等,越是口口声声不满意自己的才能。请你唱起来吧,别让我向你再三求告了。
