英语翻译
Epistle IV,To Richard Boyle,Earl of Burlington
作者:Alexander Pope
诗歌本身太长,贴不上来,度娘也不让我甩地址,劳烦搜一下全文
开头是这样的Est brevitate opus,ut currat sententia,neu se
Impediat verbis lassas onerantibus aures:
Et sermone opus est modo tristi,saepe jocoso,
Defendente vicem modo Rhetoris atque Poetae,
Interdum urbani,parcentis viribus,atque
Extenuantis eas consulto.
(Horace,Satires,I,x,17-22) 'Tis strange,the miser should his cares employ
To gain those riches he can ne'er enjoy:
Is it less strange,the prodigal should waste
His wealth to purchase what he ne'er can taste?
Not for himself he sees,or hears,or eats;
Artists must choose his pictures,music,meats:
He buys for Topham,drawings and designs,
For Pembroke,statues,dirty gods,and coins;
Rare monkish manuscripts for Hearne alone,
And books for Mead,and butterflies for Sloane.
Think we all these are for himself?no more
Than his fine wife,alas!or finer whore.

google 翻译试试,能出个大概(我试过了),然后自己再润色一下,信达雅,就好啦
