【Carnet de Voyage II·One More Sunset (1914)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) The green goes from the corn, The blue from all the lakes, And the shadows of the mountains mingle in the sky.
Far off, the still bamboo Grows green; the desert pool Turns gaudy turquoise for the chanting caravan.
The changing green and blue Flow round the changing earth; And all the rest is empty wondering and sleeping. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《旅行日誌之二·又一次日落》(1914)】 異鄉人•史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【紅霞譯】 玉米地蔥翠, 所有的湖泊泛出湛藍, 山影在天空中交織。
遠處,靜謐的竹林 綠意盎然;沙漠的池塘 為誦經大篷車盛着艷麗的青綠色。
變幻的綠藍色 圍繞變幻的地球流動; 而其它一切無異於空虛遐想及夜夢飄零。 【注】紐約聖母瑪麗“慈悲”教堂以煙熏慈悲(Smoky Mary's)著稱,每次彌撒都使用大量香火,可惜今天我去的時候還沒到禱告時間,因此只能敬拜聖殿。 1990年,紐約慈悲聖母教堂被列為美國《國家史跡名錄》。 Today in History(歷史上的今天): 2024 3-Michelin Le Bernardin, NYC(大四·紐約米其林三星—伯納丁) 2024 SUMMIT One Vanderbilt, NYC(紐約范德堡“山崗人”·頂峰一號大廈) 2024 Yuletide Merriment @ Mid-Town, NYC(紐約中城·聖誕喜樂) 2021 Hand-Crafted Mercer Museum, PA(賓州美世博物館·手工藝品) 2015: Compare─Bold Actions vs. Being a He(對比─大無畏精神與英雄好漢) 2013: Potpourris in Mumbai, India(印度孟買拾遺) 2010: 小學二年級·等價交換(2010 Equivalent Exchange)
