Orpheus:i.e. the legendary Greek poet and musician.“Presented with the lyre of Apollo,and instructed by the Muses in its use,he enchanted with its music not only the wild beasts,but the trees and rocks upon O-lympus.so that they moved from their places to fol-low the sound of his golden harp.”俄耳甫斯,傳說中的希臘詩人和音樂家。“阿波羅給他一張弦琴,繆斯女神教他彈奏,他彈出的樂曲不但迷住了野獸,也迷住了奧林匹克山上的樹木和石頭,使得它們跟著他那黃金豎琴的聲音而移動。” △Mer.5.1.80:“Orpheus drew trees,stones,and floods;”俄耳甫斯能用音樂感動木石、平息風浪。 △Gent.3.2. 78(77): “ForOrpheus' lute was strung with poets'sinews,”因為俄耳甫斯的琴弦是用詩人的神經(jīng)做成的。 △H.VIII.3.1.3:“Or-pheus with his lute made trees,/ And the mountaintops that freeze,/ Bow themselves when he did sing.”俄耳甫斯把他的琴弦撥弄,高高的樹木和冰凍的山峰,都低下頭來傾聽他的歌聲。 |
