repetition of mystery, ominous feelings I went below-not without a full presentiment of evil 我回到舱房——心中不无一种大祸临头的预感 I went as passenger-having no other inducement than a kind of nervous restlessness which haunted me as a fiend 我这次旅行只有一个原因,那就是我感到了一种像是魔鬼附身似的心神不定。 I went below-not without a full presentiment of evil. Why I did so I can hardly tell An indefinite sense of awe, which at first sight of the navigators of the ship had taken hold of my mind, was perhaps the principle of my concealment 我说不清自己为何要躲藏。也许第一眼看见这船上那些水手时心中所产生的一种 模糊的畏惧感就是我想躲起来的原因。 A feeling, for which I have no name, has taken possession of my soul-a sensation which will admit of no analysis, to which the lessons of bygone times are inadequate, and for which I fear futurity itself will offer me no key. 种莫可名状的感情占据了我的心灵—那是一种不容分析、早年的学识不足以 解释、而未来本身恐怕也给不出答案的感情 OLOOPPA
