《幽梦影》(3)
人生――之十
胸中小不平，可以酒消之；世间大不平，非剑不能消也。
（周）星远曰：看剑饮杯长，一切不平皆破除矣。
迂庵曰：苍苍者未必肯以太阿假人，似不能代作空空儿也。
悔庵曰：龙泉太阿，汝知我者，岂止苏子美以一斗读《汉书》耶？
A small injustice can be drowned by a cup of wine;a great injustice can be vanquished only by the sword.
Shingyuan:So you drown all sorrows by holding a cup of wine with a sword in sight.
Yu-an:I do not think the Blessed Lord would easily give such a sword to men.It might raise more trouble than it can settle.
Huei-an:O,Lungchuan and Tai-o ,trust me !I can handle both!
人生――之十一
多情者必好色，而好色者未必尽属多情；红颜者必薄命，而薄命者未必尽属红颜；能诗者必好酒，而好酒者未必尽属能诗。
竹坡曰：情起于色者，则好色也，非情也。祸起于颜色者，则薄命在红颜，否则，亦止曰命而已矣。
（洪）秋士曰：世亦有能诗而不好酒者。
A great lover loves women,but one who loves women is not necessarily a greatlover.A beautiful woman often has a tragic life,but not all those who have tragic lives are beautiful.A good poet can always drink,but being a great drinker does not make one a poet.
Chupoassion which is based on sex must after all be distinguished from true love.Tragedy sometimes comes from being a great beauty,but sometimes has to connection with it,but is just fate.
Chiushih:There are poets who cannot drink.
人生――之十二
有青山方有绿水，水惟借色于山；有美酒便有佳诗，诗亦乞灵于酒。
（李）圣许曰：有青山绿水，乃可酌美酒而咏佳诗，是诗酒亦发端于山水也。
Green hills come with blue waters which borrow their blueness from the hills;good wine produces beautiful poems,which draw sustenance from the spirits.
Shengshu:Green hills and blue waters make it possible to enjoy wine and poetry.So everything goes back to the hills and waters.
人生――之十三
天下无书则已，有则必当读；无酒则已，有则必当饮；无名山则已，有则必当赏玩；无才
子佳人则已，有则必当爱慕怜惜。
弟木山曰：谈何容易，即我家黄山，几能得一到耶？
If there were no books,then nothing need be said about it ,but since there are联单books,they must be read;if there were no wine,then nothing need be said.but since there is ,it must be drunk;since there are famous mountains,they must be visited;since there are flowers and the moon,they must be enjoyed ;and since there are poets and beauties they must be loved and protected.
Mushan:Easier said than done.There is the famous Yellow Mountain right in our district.But how many have visited it?
人生――之十四
不得已而谀之者，宁以口，毋以笔；不可耐而骂人者，亦宁以口，毋以笔。
（张）豹人曰：但恐未必能自主耳。
竹坡曰：上句立品，下句立德。
迂庵曰：匪惟立德，亦以免祸。
天石曰：今人笔不谀人，更无用笔之处矣。心斋不知此苦，还是唐宋以上人耳。
云士曰：古笔铭曰：“毫毛茂茂，陷水可脱，陷文不活。”正此谓也。亦有谄以笔而实讥之者，亦有以笔而若誉之者，总以不笔为高。
If one has to praise someone,rather do it by word of mouth than by pen;if there are persons that must be stigated,also do it by word of mouth rather
than in writing.
Paojen:You have no control over it sometimes.
Chupo:The first half of the sentence helps one's integrity,the second halfone's character.
Yu-an:It not only helps character,but saves one from getting into trouble.
Tienshih:There are writers today who find no other use for their pen except writing eulogies.Shintsai is not aware of the circumstances which force them to do it.He lives mentally in the Golden Age.
Yunshih:An ancient inscription on a pen says,"The little hair-brush.You can get out when dipped in water,but when you get into writing,you may be crushed."There are eulogies with tongue-in-check sarcasms and apparent denunciations which cover real praise.But the best thing is not to commit it to paper at all.
