he showed his filed and pointed³ teeth. On, on we flew; and our offing gained, the Moss⁴ did homage⁵ to the blast;  他嘴巴微张、鼻孔张大，一脸的兴奋之色。 摩斯号进入深海，巨浪排挞而来，船头一起一伏，

ducked and dived her bows as a slave before the Sultan. Sideways leaning, we sideways darted⁶;  像个叩头的奴隶。帆绳绷得紧紧的，

every ropeyarn tingling⁷ like a wire; the two tall masts buckling⁸ like Indian canes⁹ in land tornadoes¹⁰.  桅杆随船摇晃着， 

So full of this reeling scene were we, as we stood by the plunging¹¹ bowsprit,  一派壮观的航行景象。

that for some time we did not notice the jeering¹² glances of the passengers, a lubber-like assembly, who marvelled¹³ that two fellow beings should be so companionable;  可船上其他的旅客却把我们俩当成了稀罕的景致，

as though a white man were anything more dignified¹⁴ than a whitewashed¹⁵ negro.  在他们看来，一个白人和一个野人如此亲密简直不能容忍。 

Queequeg caught one of these young saplings mimicking¹⁶ him behind his back.  魁魁格一回头，正碰上一个在他身后扮鬼脸儿的毛头小伙子。

I thought the bumpkin's hour of doom¹⁷ was come. Dropping his harpoon¹⁸, the brawny¹⁹ savage²⁰ caught him in his arms,  魁魁格以一种不可思议的力量一下抓起了那小伙子，顺手抛向空中，

and by an almost miraculous²¹ dexterity²² and strength, sent him high up bodily into the air; then slightly tapping his stern in mid-somerset,  让他在空中翻着跟斗时再拍击一掌，那家伙踉跄着落在了地上。 

the fellow landed with bursting lungs upon his feet, while Queequeg, turning his back upon him, lighted his tomahawk pipe and passed it to me for a puff²³.  魁魁格转过身来，点起烟斗斧，给我递过来。 

Capting! Capting!" yelled the bumpkin, running towards that officer; Capting, Capting, here's the devil. 船长，船长，船长，他…他…他，他是魔鬼！
