"I shall not leave you," I said.
“我不离开你。”我说。
I shall look as if I were suffering. I shall look a little as if I were dying.
我将会象是很痛苦的样子…我有点象要死去似的。
It is like that. Do not come to see that. It is not worth the trouble...
就是这么回事，你就别来看这些了，没有必要。
I shall not leave you.
我不离开你。
But he was worried. I tell you it is also because of the snake.
可是他担心起来。我对你说这些这也是因为蛇的缘故。
He must not bite you. Snakes,they are malicious creatures. This one might bite you just for fun...
别让它咬了你,蛇是很坏的，它随意咬人.
I shall not leave you.
我不离开你。
But a thought came to reassure him: "It is true that they have no more poison for a second bite."
这时，他似乎有点放心了：“对了，它咬第二口的时候就没有毒液了。”
That night I did not see him set out on his way.
这天夜里，我没有看到他起程。
He got away from me without making a sound.
他不声不响地跑了。
When I succeeded in catching up with him he was walking along with a quick and resolute step.
当我终于赶上他的时候，他坚定地快步走着。

He said to me merely:"Ah! You are there... "
他只是对我说道：“啊，你在这儿…”
And he took me by the hand. But he was still worrying.
于是他拉着我的手。但是他仍然很担心：
It was wrong of you to come. You will suffer.
你不该这样。你会难受的。
I shall look as if I were dead;and that will not be true..." I said nothing.
“我会象是死去的样子，但这不会是真的…”我默默无言。
You understand，it is too far.
你明白，路很远。
I cannot carry this body with me. It is too heavy.
我不能带着这付身躯走。它太重了。
I said nothing."But it will be like an old abandoned shell. There is nothing sad about old shells... "I said nothing.
我依然沉默不语。“但是，这就好象剥落的旧树皮一样。旧树皮，并没有什么可悲的。”我依然沉默不语。
