【Phases·III (1914)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) This was the salty taste of glory, That it was not Like Agamemnon’s story. Only, an eyeball in the mud, And Hopkins, Flat and pale and gory! —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《阶段》之三(1914年)】 华莱士·史蒂文斯“异乡人·花环”(1879生—1955卒) 【红霞译】 这是荣耀的苦涩味道， 再现的并非 像阿伽门农神话故事。 仅有一只眼球落地， 如同霍普金斯诗中， 沉郁、苍白和血腥！ 【注】振铃石敲击时会发出钟声般的共鸣，世界各地的巨石场都有记载：英国湖区的音乐石，宾州上黑埃迪的响石，澳大利亚的响岩与贝尔“英俊”岩(Bell Rock)岩。它们被称为“石音器”，却至今无人能提出可靠的理论解释其成因。宾夕法尼亚“山林”东南部这些巨石场来自纽瓦克“新方舟”盆地辉绿岩岩床——2亿年前侏罗纪早期，地壳拉伸，岩浆上升注入沉积盆地，橄榄石与辉石结晶后沉向底部，形成一层厚约10—15英尺/3.0—4.6米的独特岩石单元。更新世冰缘环境的反复冻融，让这层岩石崩解成今天这片广阔的巨石场。 我蹲在巨石场中间，用锤子轻轻敲击脚边一块灰绿色的石头，它发出一声短促而清晰的回响，像远处钟楼被风碰了一下。不是所有石头都会响——大约只有三分之一能发声。而那些被带回实验室的石头，据说立刻失去了音乐能力，仿佛声音只愿意在这片土地里存着，一离开就收回了它的秘密。它不认人，只认山。 我放下锤子，用手掌贴在石头表面——粗糙、冰凉，那些晶粒硌着皮肤，带着一种不愿妥协的硬度。它曾在地下深处被岩浆烧透、被山体挤压变形，又在千万年里被冰川刨过、被河水磨过、被烈日与严寒反复撕扯。一万次冻融，一万次裂开又愈合，才变成今天这样一块会唱歌的石头。我贴着它，仿佛感到一阵微弱的震颤——不是温度，是从漫长忍耐里沉淀下来的某种东西，像人的低声。那一刻我忽然明白：石头的声音从来不是被敲出来的，而是被压了亿年之后，从缝隙里漏出来的。 Today in History(历史上的今天):

 Sonorous Boulder Field, along Channels w/ Adjoining Fissures, Potholes w/ Dents, & Old Surfaces Intensely Pitted
(巨石场·沟渠与裂缝相连，坑洼凹陷，老旧路面布满麻点 02-11-2022)  Lithophonic Rock in these boulder fields of southeastern Pennsylvania and central New Jersey formed from a group of diabase sills in the Newark Basin. The sills were formed when the stretching of the Earth's crust allowed mafic magma to travel up from the upper mantle and be injected into the sedimentary basin 200 million years ago (during the early Jurassic Period). Phenocrysts of two minerals that had crystallized in the upper mantle, olivine and pyroxene, quickly settled out of the magma and collected along the base of the sills. When fully solidified, this crystal-rich layer formed a separate rock unit 10-15 ft (3.0-4.6 m) thick. By the Pleistocene Epoch, the sills had been exposed to the surface by crustal uplift and erosion. During the Pleistocene, outcrops of the olivine diabase were not buried by the glacial sheets; however, they were subjected to severe freezing, or periglacial, conditions. The periglacial environment caused the outcrops to be broken into extensive boulder fields.(响石场的石音岩石·【注解】见上)
