But though when she had thus sailed a sufficient distance to gain the presumed place of the absent ones when last seen; though she then paused to lower her spare boats to pull all around her; and not finding anything, had again dashed on; again paused, and lowered her boats; and though she had thus continued doing till daylight; yet not the least glimpse of the missing keel had been seen.

可是，大船雖則已經(jīng)這樣繼續(xù)駛了相當(dāng)遠(yuǎn)，到達(dá)了他們認(rèn)為是最后看到那只失落的小艇的所在洋面，雖則大船當(dāng)時(shí)也停下來(lái)，放下小艇，在大船四周劃來(lái)劃去，可是，卻什么也沒(méi)有找到，只得又向前駛?cè)?，又停下?lái)，又放下小艇；雖則大船這樣繼續(xù)駛了又停，停了又駛，直至天亮；依然一點(diǎn)也看不到那只失落的小艇的蹤影。

The story told, the stranger Captain immediately went on to reveal his object in boarding the Pequod. He desired that ship to unite with his own in the search; by sailing over the sea some four or five miles apart, on parallel lines, and so sweeping a double horizon, as it were.

陌生船的船長(zhǎng)把經(jīng)過(guò)情況講過(guò)后，立刻接下去表露他之所以上"裴廓德號(hào)"來(lái)的目的。他希望"裴廓德號(hào)"能跟他自己那艘船一起去尋找那只小艇；兩艘大船相隔四五英里，平行地駛?cè)?，這樣就可說(shuō)是把左右兩側(cè)都一覽無(wú)遺了。

I will wager something now, whispered Stubb to Flask, "that some one in that missing boat wore off that Captain's best coat; mayhap, his watch — he's so cursed anxious to get it back. Who ever heard of two pious whale-ships cruising after one missing whale-boat in the height of the whaling season? See, Flask, only see how pale he looks — pale in the very buttons of his eyes — look — it wasn't the coat — it must have been the-"

這下我可要打點(diǎn)什么賭了，斯塔布悄悄地對(duì)弗拉斯克說(shuō)，"那只失落的小艇上，一定有人把那船長(zhǎng)的最好的上衣穿走了；說(shuō)不定還有他的表哪——看他急得要死，巴不得馬上就去給找回來(lái)。在這種捕鯨的旺季里，誰(shuí)曾聽(tīng)到過(guò)有兩只善心善意的捕鯨船，去為一只失落的艇子巡游來(lái)著？你瞧，弗拉斯克，你只消看他那臉色多潦白——眼瞳里也都發(fā)白了——你瞧——恐怕還不只是上衣——一定還有——"

My boy, my own boy is among them. For God's sake — I beg, I conjure — here exclaimed the stranger Captain to Ahab, who thus far had but icily received his petition. "For eight-and-forty hours let me charter your ship — I will gladly pay for it, and roundly pay for it — if there be no other way — for eight-and-forty hours only — only that — you must, oh, you must, and you shall do this thing."

那只小艇里有我的兒子，我自己的兒子?？丛谏系鄣姆萆稀艺?qǐng)求你，懇求你?！f(shuō)到這里，陌生船的船長(zhǎng)對(duì)亞哈大聲叫喊起來(lái)了，亞哈則直到此時(shí)只是冷冰冰地聽(tīng)他說(shuō)下去。"請(qǐng)把你的船租給我四十八小時(shí)——我情愿付給船租，付高額的船租——如果沒(méi)有發(fā)生其它情形——我只要租四十八個(gè)小時(shí)就夠了——就夠了——你呀，你一定，一定要答應(yīng)我，你得這樣做。"
