on his deceased wife 梦亡妻
milton
me thought i saw my late espousèd saint
brought to me like alcestis from the grave,
whom joves great son to her glad husband gave,
rescu'd from death by force though pale and faint.
我仿佛看见了我那圣洁的亡妻，
好像从坟墓回来的阿尔雪斯蒂，
由约夫的伟大儿子送还她丈夫，
从死亡中被抢救出来，苍白而无力。
mine as whom washt from spot of child-bed taint,
purification in the old law did save,
and such, as yet once more i trust to have
full sight of her in heaven without restraint,
我的阿尔雪斯蒂已经洗净了产褥的污点，
按照古法规净化，保持无瑕的白璧；
因此，我也好像重新得到一度的光明，
毫无阻碍地、清楚地看见她在天堂里，
。
