The night before the wedding, 婚礼的前一天晚上,
Juliet was alone in her room, the bottle in her hand. 朱丽叶独自待在房间里,手里攥着那个药瓶。
Doubts flooded in. 各种担忧和疑虑一股脑儿涌了上来。
What if the potion didn't work? 要是这药水不管用怎么办?
What if it was really poison? 万一这根本就是致命的毒药呢?
What if she woke in the tomb before Romeo came, 要是罗密欧还没来,自己就先在墓穴里醒了过来,
surrounded by her ancestors' bones, 身边全是祖先的白骨,
and by Tybalt's body, still bloody in its shroud? 还有提伯尔特裹着带血尸布的尸体,那该怎么办?
Would she go mad in the dark with fear? 她会不会在无边无际的黑暗中活活吓疯?
She imagined his ghost rising, searching for Romeo. 她甚至脑补出提伯尔特的鬼魂爬了起来,正四处搜寻罗密欧的身影。
Courage isn't the absence of fear; it's deciding that something matters more. 勇敢并不意味着没有恐惧,而是认定了有比恐惧更重要的事。
"Romeo, Romeo, Romeo! “罗密欧,罗密欧,罗密欧!
Here's drink. 我把这药喝了,
I drink to thee." 这一杯全是为了你。”
And she drank, and fell back onto the bed. 说完,她一饮而尽,倒在床上昏了过去。
The next morning, her nurse came to wake her for the wedding. 第二天清早,奶妈来叫她起床参加婚礼。
She shook her gently, then harder. 奶妈先是轻轻推了推她,见没反应又用力摇了摇。
Then she screamed. 紧接着,奶妈惊恐地尖叫起来。
The whole house came running. 全屋子的人都慌忙跑了过来。
The bride was dead. 新娘已经没有了呼吸。
