颠倒着

And yet, with all his faults, he sets up to be a universal reformer and corrector of abuses, a remover of grievances, rakes into every slut's corner of nature, bringing hidden corruptions to the light, and raises a mighty dust where there was none before, sharing deeply all the while in the very same pollutions he pretends to sweep away. His last days are spent in slavery to women, and generally the least deserving; till, worn to the stumps, like his brother besom, he is either kicked out of doors, or made use of to kindle flames for others to warm themselves by.

不也是一个颠倒的动物，他的兽性老骑在理性背上，他的头去了该放他的脚的地方，老在土里趴着，可是尽管有这么多毛病，还自命为天下的改革家，除弊者，伸冤者，把手伸进人世间每个藏污纳垢的角落，扫出来一大堆从未暴露过的肮脏，把原来干净的地方弄得尘土满天，肮脏没扫走而扫的人自己倒浑身受到了污染；到晚年又变成女人的奴隶，而且是一些最不堪的女人，直到磨得只剩下一支根株，于是像他的扫帚老弟一样，不是给扔出门外，就是拿来生火，供别人取暖了。

The world is reversed in a camera obscura first, but it remains unfixed until you squeeze the airbag, then the image remains there. A dark place harbors a seemingly real world.

在一个暗箱子先将世界颠倒成像，那个时候还不确定，用手捏一下气囊，影就留在那里了，一个黑暗的地方，装着一个看似真实的世界。

So I don't think any of us said very much about time travelling in the interval between that Thursday and the next, though its odd potentialities ran, no doubt, in most of our minds: its plausibility, that is, its practical incredibleness, the curious possibilities of anachronism and of utter confusion it suggested.

所以，我想我们在那个星期四到下一个星期四的这段时间里，谁也没有多谈时间旅行的事，不过我们大多数人的脑子里无疑还惦记着它虽然可疑却有潜在可能性。这就是其表面上可能而事实上不切实际，也就是造成年代颠倒和天下大乱的可能性。

Is it credible that this thoroughly externalized operatic music, incapable of devotion, could be received and cherished with enthusiastic favor, as a rebirth, as it were, of all true music, by the very age in which had appeared the ineffably sublime and sacred music of Palestrina?

我们唯有从希腊的先例来推测，始能了解这种生活的涵义吗？对于我们站在两种不同生活方式的界线上的今人，希腊人的楷模还保持着无比价值，因为以前一切转变和斗争在那儿留下其典范的痕迹；不过现在我们要颠倒次序来经历希腊天才的各个伟大主要时代，例如，从亚历山德里亚时代倒退到希腊悲剧时代。

In Capital-Profit, or better Capital-Interest, Land-Rent, Labor-Wages of Labor, in this economic trinity expressing professedly the connection of value and of wealth in general with their sources, we have the complete mystification of the capitalist mode of production.

在资本-利润(或者，更好的形式是资本-利息)，土地-地租，劳动-工资中，在这个表示价值和一般财富的各个组成部分同财富的各个源泉的联系的经济三位一体中，资本主义生产方式的神秘化…这是一个着了魔的，颠倒的，倒立的着的世界。

In Capital-Profit, or better Capital-Interest, Land-Rent, Labor-Wages of Labor, in this economic trinity expressing professedly the connection of value and of wealth in general with their sources, we have the complete mystification of the capitalist mode of production.… It is an enchanted, perverted

在资本－利润（或者，更好的形式是资本－利息），土地－地租，劳动－工资中，在这个表示价值和一般财富的各个组成部分同财富的各个源泉的联系的经济三位一体中，资本主义生产方式的神秘化…这是一个着了魔的、颠倒的、倒立的着的世界。

She was reading a copy of "The Quibbler" magazine upside down.

她当时正上下颠倒的读着一本《唱唱反调》杂志。

Their shelterless, pale tribes to mountain caves

他颠倒着季候的次序，轮流地降下了

Looking at the Jury and the turbulent audience, he might have thought that the usual order of things was reversed, and that the felons were trying the honest men.

看着陪审团和乱纷纷的观众，他可能以为正常秩序颠倒了过来，是罪犯在审判着正直的人呢！

But a Broom stick, perhaps you'll say, is an Emblem of a Tree standing on i ts Head; and pray what is Man, but a Topsyturvy Creature, his Animal Faculties p erpetually a Cock Horse and Rational; His Head where his Heels should be; grov eling on the Earth, and yet with all his Faults, he sets up to be an universal R eformer and Corrector of Abuses, a Remover of Grievances, rakes into every Slut' s Comer of Nature, bringing hidden Corruptions to the Light, and raises a mighty Dust where there was none before, sharing deeply all the while, in the very sam e Pollutions he pretends to sweep away: His last Days are spent in Slavery to Wo men, and generally the least deserving;'till worn to the Stumps, like his Broth er Bezom, he's either kickt out of Doors, or made use of to kindle Flames, for o thers to warm Themselves by.

或许你会说，一根扫帚把不过象征着一棵头冲下的树而已，那么请问：人又是什么？不也是一个颠倒的动物吗？他的兽性总是骑在理性的背上，他的头去了该脚应去的地方，总是在土里趴着。可是尽管有这么多毛病，他还自命为天下的改革家、除弊者、伸冤者，把手伸进人世间每个藏污纳垢的角落，扫出来一大堆从未暴露过的脏物，把原来干净的地方弄得尘土满天，非但没扫走脏物，还把自己弄得满身污垢。到了晚年，他又变成女人的奴隶，通常是一些最不堪的女人，直到他被折磨得只剩下一根枯枝，于是他也像他的扫帚老弟一样，或者是被扔出门外，或者是被拿来生火，用于温暖别人了。

Plunder melds and run with this jewel!

掠夺melds和运行与此宝石！

My dream is to be a crazy growing tree and extend at the edge between the city and the forest.

此刻，也许正是在通往天国的路上，我体验着这白色的晕旋。
