From the fourteenth of August to the twenty sixth, incessant Rain, so that I could not stir, and was now very careful not to be much wet. [qh]
从八月十四日到二十六日,雨下个不停,我无法出门
In this Confinement I began to be straitned for Food, but venturing out twice, I one Day killed a Goat, and the last Day, which was the twenty sixth, found a very large Tortoise, which was a Treat to me, and my Food was regulated thus; [qh]
在此期间,一直困在屋内,粮食贮备逐日减少
I eat a Bunch of Raisins for my Breakfast, a Piece of the Goat's Flesh, or of the Turtle for my Dinner broiled; for to my great Misfortune, I had no Vessel to boil or stew any Thing; and two or three of the Turtle's Eggs for my Supper. [qh]
我的粮食是这样分配的:早餐吃一串葡萄干,中餐吃一块烤羊肉或烤鳖(不幸的是,我没有蒸东西或煮东西的器皿),晚餐吃两三个鳖蛋
During this Confinement in my Cover, by the Rain, I worked daily two or three Hours at enlarging my Cave, and by Degrees worked it on towards one Side, till I came to the Out-Side of the Hill, and made a Door or Way out, which came beyond my Fence or Wall, and so I came in and out this Way; [qh]
在我被大雨困在家里时,每天工作两三个小时扩大山洞
but I was not perfectly easy at lying so open; [qh]
但这样进出太容易,我晚上就睡不安稳;[qh]
for as I had managed myself before, I was in a perfect Enclosure, whereas now I thought I lay exposed, and open for any Thing to come in upon me; [qh]
因为以前,我总是把自己围起来,密不透风
and yet I could not perceive that there was any living Thing to fear, the biggest Creature that I had yet seen upon the Island being a Goat. [qh]
当然,至今还没有发现有什么可怕的野兽,我在岛上见到过的最大的动物,只不过是山羊而已
September the thirtieth, I was now come to the unhappy Anniversary of my Landing. [qh]
九月十三日到今天我正好来到荒岛一周年
I cast up the Notches on my Post, and found I had been on Shore three hundred and sixty five Days. [qh]
我计算了一下柱子上的刻痕,发现我已上岸365天了
I kept this Day as a Solemn Fast, Setting it apart to Religious Exercise, prostrating myself on the Ground with the most serious Humiliation, confessing my Sins to God, acknowledging his Righteous Judgments upon me, and praying to him to have Mercy on me, through Jesus Christ; [qh]
我把这天定为斋戒日,并举行了宗教仪式,以极端虔诚谦卑的心情跪伏在地上,问上帝忏悔我的罪行,接受他对我公正的惩罚,求他通过耶稣基督可怜我,饶恕我
and having not tasted the least Refreshment for twelve Hours,even till the going down of the Sun, I then eat a Bisket Cake, and a Bunch of Grapes, and went to Bed, finishing the Day as I began it. [qh]
从早到晚,十二小时中我不吃不喝,直到太阳下山,我才吃了几块饼干和一串葡萄干,然后就上床睡觉
