I think of poets and musicians. Of Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" and of Shakespeare, whose Lorenzo declaims in The Merchant of Venice ,"How sweet the moonlight sleeps upon this bank!/ Here will we sit and let the sounds of music / Creep in our ears."

一只蟋蟀在草叶间欢唱，令我想起了诗人和音乐家、想起了贝多芬的《月光交响曲》和莎士比亚笔下的《威尼斯商人》中的洛伦佐的话：&沉睡于河岸的月光是多么的迷人/我们要坐在这里让音乐之声/潜入我们的在耳内。&

Ay, where are they? Think not of them, thou hast thy music too,While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day, And touch the stubble-plains with rosy hue; Then in a waiful choir the small gnats mourn Among the river sallows, borne aloft Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies; And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn; Hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft The red-breast whistles form a garden-croft; And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.

但不要想这些吧，你也有你的音乐--当波状的云把将逝的一天映照，以胭红抹上残梗散碎的田野，这时啊，河柳下的一群小飞虫就同奏哀音，它们忽而飞高，忽而下落，随着微风的起灭；篱下的蟋蟀在歌唱，在园中红胸的知更鸟就群起呼哨；而群羊在山圈里高声默默咩叫；丛飞的燕子在天空呢喃不歇。

A cricket shrills in the grass. I think of poets and musicians.
