It was a sunny day in October 1579 when I first met Will，just outside Stratford，near a big field of apple trees．

我第一次遇见威尔是在1579年10月的一天。那天，阳光明媚，就在斯特拉福镇外一座大苹果园附近，

I saw a boy up in one of the trees．He had red hair and looked about two years older than me．

我看见有棵苹果树上坐着一位小男孩，长着红棕色头发，看模样大概大我两岁。

What are you doing up there？I called．

你在上边干什么？我叫道。

Just getting a few apples，he said，smiling

摘苹果。他笑着答道。

Those are Farmer Nash's apples，I said，and he'll send his dogs after you if he sees you．

那可是纳什农场主的苹果，我说，如果他发现了，就要放狗咬你的。

Mr Nash has gone to market，the boy said．Come on！They're good apples．

The next minute I was up the tree with him．

一会儿我也上了树。

莎翁经典

我们的身体就象一座园圃，我们的意志是这园圃里的园丁；不论我们插荨麻、种莴苣、载下牛膝草、拔起百里香，或者单独培植一种草木，或者把全园种得万卉纷披，让它荒废不治也好，把它辛勤耕垦也好，那权力都在于我们的意志。《奥赛罗》
