Line Information
- Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
- English translations (Windeatt: 1998): But at last this unhappy Troilus, nearly dead with pain, burst out in loud cries, and in a sorrowful voice, amongst his sobs and his bitter sighs, said: ‘You see, Pandarus, I’m a dead man—there’s nothing more to be said! Haven’t you heard at parliament,’ he said, ‘how my Criseyde is given up for Antenor?’
- Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012): しかしついに、この悲嘆に暮れるトロイルスは苦痛のために死にそうになり、突然うめき出し、すすり泣き、深いため息をつきながら、悲しそうな声をだしてこう言った。「見ろよ、パンダルス、おれは死んだのだ、手の施しようがなく。議会で聞かなかったのかい？アンテノールと交換におれのクリセイデが譲渡されることを。」
- Chinese translations (Fang: 1956): 后来，特罗勒斯郁闷万分，哼出了一声，在呜咽叹息之间，哑着嗓子喊道，“彭大瑞，我只有一死，不可救了。你听到议会中决定了牺牲我的克丽西德去换回恩屯诺吧？”
