Line Information

  • Differences among the manuscripts and editions:
  • English translations (Windeatt: 1998): Shame on the devil! Think what sort of a person he is, and what a state he is in! Come on now! Think how time spent in such delaying is only wasted. You’ll both say that, when you two are one! In the second place, no one as yet suspects anything about you two. Come on now, if you can! While people are taken in, you see, that whole time is pure gain.
  • Japanese translations (Sasamoto: 2012): みっともなさを知りなさいよ!その人はどんな人か考えなさい、そしてその人はどんな窮状にあるかもね、急ぎなさい。考えてごらん、こんなにぐずぐずしていたのだ、時間の損失だよ。一つにお前たちが結ばれれば、お前たち二人はそれが分かるだろう。第二に、お前たち二人については誰も全然怪しまないよ、さあ、できるだけ、急げ。目が眩んで人びとが見えない間こそ、書き入れ時だよ。
  • Chinese translations (Fang: 1956): 让魔鬼滚远些,你该顾念他是个何等人物,你看他躺在那里何等可怜;快进来!要晓得,你若犹疑,就是浪费了时间!到了你俩结合的时候,自然就会明瞭了。赶快,此刻正是没有人怀疑;无人在旁的顷刻间最是可贵!
