" yes , captain , returned carlini . at nine o clock to - morrow rita s father will be here with the money 是的，头儿，卡烈尼答道，明天早晨九点钟，丽达的父亲就会带着钱到这儿来的。
As he approached , carlini raised his head , and the forms of two persons became visible to the old man s eyes 当他走近一些的时候，卡烈尼抬起头，于是两个人的形体便呈现在老人的眼前了。
Carlini besought his chief to make an exception in rita s favor , as her father was rich , and could pay a large ransom 卡烈尼恳求他的头儿为丽达破一次例，因为她的父亲很有钱，可以出一大笔赎金。
Carlini obeyed , rejoined his comrades , folded himself in his cloak , and soon appeared to sleep as soundly as the rest 卡烈尼只得服从，回到了他的同伴那儿，用大氅裹住身体，不久也象其余那些人一样地睡熟了。
He was the man who had proposed to carlini the health of their chief , and to whom carlini replied by breaking the glass across his face 他就是那个向卡烈尼建议为他们的头儿祝福，而被卡烈尼用玻璃杯砸了脸的人。
But he was unable to complete this oath , for two days afterwards , in an encounter with the roman carbineers , carlini was killed 但他没能完成他的誓言，因为两天以后，在一场对罗马骑兵的遭遇战里，卡烈尼被杀死了。
" there , said he , demand thy child of carlini ; he will tell thee what has become of her ; and he returned to his companions 喏，他说，向卡烈尼去要你的孩子吧，她怎么样了，他会告诉你的。说完他回到他的伙伴们那儿去了。
" it so happened that night that cucumetto had sent carlini to a village , so that he had been unable to go to the place of meeting “事情是这样的，那天晚上古古密陀曾派卡烈尼到邻村去公干，所以他无法到那个地方去赴约了。
Carlini fetched two pickaxes ; and the father and the lover began to dig at the foot of a huge oak , beneath which the young girl was to repose 卡烈尼去拿了两把鹤嘴锄，于是那父亲和那情人就开始在一棵大橡树脚下挖掘起来，准备让那年轻姑娘长眠在橡树底下。
This apparition was so strange and so solemn , that every one rose , with the exception of carlini , who remained seated , and ate and drank calmly 这一幕突然出现的景象是这样奇特，这样严肃，以致大家都站了起来，只有卡烈尼例外，他仍旧坐着，镇定地吃着喝着。
