Tome -- tramp The tome As the assistant raced through the rain that was coming down in a torrent,

巨着大雨如注, 助手在雨中奔跑,

He was relieved that the golf tournament had been postponed. Competition was tough and his boss hoped

因为高尔夫锦标赛 推迟了, 他松了口气.竞争很激烈, 老板希望

That the tome he carried would hold some magic spell that could help them. Stepping off the trail and into a hidden shack,

他拿来的这本大部头会 施展一些魔力, 帮他获 胜.走下小径, 躲进一间隐蔽的小屋,

The assistant put the tome on the table, Quickly dried off with a towel

助手把大部头放在桌上迅速用毛巾擦干身子,

And then went into the main room that was lit with torches. So you're back.Did anyone follow you on the track?

然后走入火把照亮 的主屋.你回来啦. 有人跟踪你吗?

Asked his boss in a torpid manner. It would be a tragedy for you if we were discovered!

老板懒洋洋地问道, 如果我们被人发现, 你就惨了!

No. No one is even outside. That was the one trait he despised;

没人跟踪我, 外边连人都没有.他最瞧不起老板 这个特点了,

His boss was sometimes too cautious with a trace of meanness. He could really be quite toxic if he chose to be.

他有时太谨慎, 让人觉得有点儿小气.如果他愿意, 他可以变得十分恶毒.

That's why the assistant was always firmly in tow. Good.Let's see the tome.Ahhh, yes.

这就是助手总是严格 受控制的原因.好, 咱们看看这本 巨着.啊, 对,

It has topical organization with a total index for all the spells present. Hmmmm.How to turn a tramp into a princess... No, it's not that one,

这本书是按主题来组织 编写的, 上面有关于 所有符咒的全部索引.嗯, 如何将妓女 变公主...... 不, 不是这个.

How to increase your intelligence twofold...no, not that one either. How to manipulate topographic detail. That would be good.

如何将自己的智商提高 两倍......也不是这个如何巧妙处理地形细节 这个很棒.

Ah, here's the one. How to change personal traits. With this spell I canmake the favored golfer lose all of his concentration.

啊, 就是这个, 如何改变个性特征, 用这个符咒我可以让那 个有天赋的高尔夫球运 动员不能集中注意力,

No one will ever suspect that his tragic performance was influenced by magic. And you can enhance your own golf skills! The assistant said.

没有人会怀疑他的 悲剧性表现是由于 魔力的影响.你还可以提高你自己 的高尔夫技能!助手说

But he regretted it immediately When he saw his boss flip the page about turning a person into a frog.

他马上就后悔自己 讲了这句话.但是看到老板翻到把人 变成青蛙的那一页.
