Leaning over in his hammock, Queequeg long regarded the coffin with an attentive eye.

斜倚在吊铺上，奎奎格把这棺材专注地打量了好半天。

On the way he meets Queequeg, a rough and dangerous looking man who works as a harpooner.

在途中，他遇到了魁魁格，一个看上去粗暴而危险的鱼叉手。

" Look-e here, " said Queequeg, pointing down.

“看这里。”奎奎格说，指着水下面。

Then Queequeg the harpooner gets a bad fever and a coffin is made for him in anticipation of his death.

后来鱼叉手魁魁格发烧了，船员们以为他会死去，于是给他做了棺材。

Queequeg dies game! —mind ye that; Queequeg dies game! — take ye good heed of that; Queequeg dies game!

奎奎格死得壮烈！——记住了，奎奎格死得壮烈——你们得好好注意了，奎奎格死得壮烈！

Now, when this strange circumstance was made known aft, the carpenter was at once commanded to do Queequeg's bidding, whatever it might include.

当这个奇怪的情况被传到船尾的时候，木匠马上受命按照奎奎格的吩咐行事，无论涉及什么，都一律照办。

Queequeg patted their foreheads; Starbuck scratched their backs with his lance; but fearful of the consequences, for the time refrained from darting it.

奎奎格轻拍它们的前额；斯塔巴克用鱼枪抓搔它们的后背；只因怕有什么后果，才暂时不去戳它们。

Not a man of the crew but gave him up; and, as for Queequeg himself, what he thought of his case was forcibly shown by a curious favor he asked.

水手中没有一个人放弃他；而至于奎奎格自己，他对病情的想法鲜明体现在他所提出的一个奇怪要求上面。

But after he befriends the Pacific Islander Queequeg and joins Ahab's crew aboard the Pequod, Ishmael becomes more of an omniscient guide for the reader than a traditional character.

但在他与太平洋岛民奎奎格成为朋友并加入亚哈在佩阔德号上的船员之后，伊斯梅尔对读者来说更像是一个无所不知的向导，而不是一个传统人物。

And this thought it must have been which suggested to Ahab that wild exclamation of his, when one morning turning away from surveying poor Queequeg—" Oh, devilish tantalization of the gods! "

亚哈心中一定产生过这样的想法，有天早上，查看过可怜的奎奎格之后，他转身离开时感叹地说：“啊，这众神恶魔般的挑逗！”

In about three minutes' time, Queequeg's harpoon was flung; the stricken fish darted blinding spray in our faces, and then running away with us like light, steered straight for the heart of the herd.

大约三分钟之后，奎奎格便掷出了标枪；被刺中的鲸鱼把令人眼花缭乱的水花泼溅在我们脸上，然后像一道光一样飞速逃离，径直奔向鲸群的中央。

While Daggoo and Queequeg were stopping the strained planks; and as the whale swimming out from them, turned, and showed one entire flank as he shot by them again; at that moment a quick cry went up.

达戈和奎奎格正忙着堵受损船板上的漏洞。鲸鱼离开了他们，转过身，从他们旁边飞快地游过，露出整个的侧面；就在这时，响起一声急促的叫喊。

In a word, it was Queequeg's conceit, that if a man made up his mind to live, mere sickness could not kill him: nothing but a whale, or a gale, or some violent, ungovernable, unintelligent destroyer of that sort.

一句话，这是奎奎格的玄想，如果一个人打定主意要活，区区疾病是无法要他的命的，只有鲸鱼、狂风，或者某些不可控制而又愚昧无知的暴力才能把他毁灭。
