Taurusn. 1 (The old medical astrology supposed thatthe twelve signs of the Zodiac controlled the variousorgans of the human body.) The Bull,the zodiacalsign that controls “l(fā)egs and thighs”(主宰人體中小腿和大腿的)金牛星座,金牛宮。(根據(jù)古老的醫(yī)療占星術(shù),黃道十二宮中的每一個(gè)星宮都主宰人體的某些部分?;蛟平鹋m主宰小腿和大腿。) △Tw. 1. 3. 148 (137): “What shall we do else?were we not born under Taurus?”除了這個(gè),我們還有什么事好做? 咱們不是生在“金牛星”下面嗎? (按:意即生來(lái)就該跳舞。因此下文Sir Aguecheek所說(shuō)的sides and heart“腰和心”錯(cuò)誤。一說(shuō)Sir Toby也錯(cuò),Taurus應(yīng)主宰neck andthroat “頸與喉”。)
