" You have heard of a man of bad character, whose true name is Compeyson" ?

“你听说过一个性格恶劣的人，他的真名是康佩森”？

Compeyson says to me, 'Separate defences, no communication, ' and that was all.

康佩森对我说，‘单独防御，没有交流’，仅此而已。

His expression was, 'a round score o' year ago, and a'most directly after I took up wi' Compeyson.

他的表情是， “一年前的一轮得分” ，以及“在我接手康佩森之后最直接的得分” 。

If Compeyson were alive and should discover his return, I could hardly doubt the consequence.

如果康佩森还活着并且发现他回来了， 我几乎不会怀疑后果。

And what was Compeyson's business in which we was to go pardners?

我们要合作的康佩森公司的业务是什么？

Compeyson's business was the swindling, handwriting forging, stolen bank-note passing, and such-like.

康佩森的生意是诈骗、伪造笔迹、偷走钞票等等。

So I begun wi' Compeyson, and a poor tool I was in his hands.

所以我开始与 Compeyson 合作，而我在他手中是一个糟糕的工具。

The opportunity that the day's rest had given me for reflection had resulted in my fully determining to say nothing to him respecting Compeyson.

一天的休息给了我反思的机会，这让我下定决心不对他说任何关于康培生的事情。

And when I says to Compeyson, 'Once out of this court, I'll smash that face of yourn!

当我对康佩森说，‘一旦离开这个法庭，我就砸烂你的脸！

' ain't it Compeyson as prays the Judge to be protected, and gets two turnkeys stood betwixt us?

’ 康佩生不就是祈祷法官受到保护，让两把交钥匙站在我们中间吗？

At last, me and Compeyson was both committed for felony, —on a charge of putting stolen notes in circulation, —and there was other charges behind.

最后，我和康佩森都犯了重罪，罪名是流通被盗的钞票，而且还有其他罪名。

The late Compeyson having been beforehand with him in intelligence of his return, and being so determined to bring him to book, I do not think he could have been saved.

已故的康佩生在得知他回来的消息之前就与他取得了联系，并且下定决心要将他绳之以法，我认为他不可能得救。

His right name was Compeyson; and that's the man, dear boy, what you see me a pounding in the ditch, according to what you truly told your comrade arter I was gone last night.

他的正确名字是康佩森；就是那个人，亲爱的孩子，你看到我在沟里跳动，根据你昨晚离开后你告诉你的战友的真实情况。

And when it come to speech-making, warn't it Compeyson as could speak to 'em wi' his face dropping every now and then into his white pocket-handkercher, —ah!

说到演讲，康佩森可不可以和他们说话，他的脸时不时地掉进他的白色手帕里，——啊！

All sorts of traps as Compeyson could set with his head, and keep his own legs out of and get the profits from and let another man in for, was Compeyson's business.

康佩森可以用他的脑袋设下各种陷阱，让自己的腿远离，并从中获利，让另一个人上当，这是康佩森的事。

Arthur lived at the top of Compeyson's house (over nigh Brentford it was), and Compeyson kept a careful account agen him for board and lodging, in case he should ever get better to work it out.

亚瑟住在康佩森家的顶层（就在布伦特福德附近），康佩森为他的食宿留了一笔账，以防万一他能更好地解决这个问题。

Him and Compeyson had been in a bad thing with a rich lady some years afore, and they'd made a pot of money by it; but Compeyson betted and gamed, and he'd have run through the king's taxes.

几年前，他和康佩森与一位富家小姐闹得不可开交，因此赚了一大笔钱；但是康佩森下注和博弈，他会通过国王的税收。

Nobody doubted it; but Compeyson, who had meant to depose to it, was tumbling on the tides, dead, and it happened that there was not at that time any prison officer in London who could give the required evidence.

没有人怀疑它；但是，本打算宣誓作证的康佩森却在海浪中翻滚，死了，碰巧当时伦敦没有任何狱警可以提供所需的证据。

So, Arthur was a dying, and a dying poor and with the horrors on him, and Compeyson's wife (which Compeyson kicked mostly) was a having pity on him when she could, and Compeyson was a having pity on nothing and nobody.

所以，亚瑟是一个垂死的人，一个垂死的穷人，身上充满了恐怖，而康佩森的妻子（康佩森经常踢她）在她可能的时候同情他，而康佩森对任何人都没有同情。
