Dorothy wept bitterly at the passing of her hope to get home to Kansas again;
多萝茜要回到堪萨斯州去的希望，又成为幻影，她伤心地哭了；
but when she thought it all over she was glad she had not gone up in a balloon.
然而，她还是庆幸，自己没有坐在轻气球上飘升而去，
And she also felt sorry at losing Oz, and so did her companions.
她和她的同伴们，都为奥芝的失踪而忧虑。
The Tin Woodman came to her and said:
铁皮人难过地对她说：
"Truly I should be ungrateful if I failed to mourn for the man who gave me my lovely heart.
“真的，我应该为把一颗可爱的心给我的人的失踪而悲伤，不然我就是忘恩负义了。
I should like to cry a little because Oz is gone, if you will kindly wipe away my tears, so that I shall not rust."
因为奥芝失踪了；我要哭一会儿，请你帮助我，揩去我的眼泪，免得让我发锈。”
"With pleasure," she answered, and brought a towel at once.
“好的，”多萝茜回答说，说着就抽出一条手帕来。
Then the Tin Woodman wept for several minutes, and she watched the tears carefully and wiped them away with the towel.
于是铁皮人放声哭了起来，她拿着手帕用心地揩掉那流出来的眼泪，
When he had finished, he thanked her kindly and oiled himself thoroughly with his jeweled oil-can, to guard against mishap.
当他哭停了以后，马上亲切地向她道谢；并且拿出那饰着珠宝的油罐，用油涂抹了一下全身，好防止那发锈的灾难。
The Scarecrow was now the ruler of the Emerald City,
现在由稻草人管理翡翠城，
and although he was not a Wizard the people were proud of him.
虽然他是什么魔术家，但是百姓都敬重他。
"For," they said, "there is not another city in all the world that is ruled by a stuffed man."
他们说：“因为在这个地球上，只有我们这个城市，是一个稻草人领导的。”
And, so far as they knew, they were quite right.
就他们所知道的来说，这话是很对的。
