【Notes Toward a Supreme Fiction—It Must Be Abstract·IX (1942)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) The romantic intoning, the declaimed clairvoyance Are parts of apotheosis, appropriate And of its nature, the idiom thereof. They differ from reason’s click-clack, its applied Enflashings. But apotheosis is not The origin of the major man. He comes, Compact in invincible foils, from reason, Lighted at midnight by the studious eye, Swaddled in revery, the object of The hum of thoughts evaded in the mind, Hidden from other thoughts, he that reposes On a breast forever precious for that touch, For whom the good of April falls tenderly, Falls down, the cock-birds calling at the time. My dame, sing for this person accurate songs. He is and may be but oh! he is, he is, This foundling of the infected past, so bright, So moving in the manner of his hand. Yet look not at his colored eyes. Give him No names. Dismiss him from your images. The hot of him is purest in the heart. —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《最高虚构笔记——它必定抽象·之九》(1942年)】 异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【红霞译】 浪漫的语调，颂扬的洞察力 组成神化部分，恰当 而又自然，独具风格。 它们不同于理性的噼啪声，运用起来 光华四射。但神化不是 救世主的起源。他出现了， 不合逻辑地矮小，基于理性， 午夜时分被勤奋的眼光照亮， 满怀遐想，捕捉 脑海中闪现的念头， 避开其它想法，他依靠 触及心灵而永远珍贵的胸脯， 四月的美好温柔地为他折腰、 倾倒，顿时雄鸡鸣叫。 女主人，为这个人唱些精准的歌曲吧。 他是也许是但是哦！ 他是，他是， 过去曾受伤害的弃儿，却那么阳光灿烂， 总以他的方式魅惑众生。 然而别看他的彩色眼睛。让他 没有名字。舍弃你对他的印象。 他心中的炽热是最纯粹的。 【注】漫步者城距离费城仅有16英里/26公里，到处一片开阔的农田，19世纪宾州铁路北线的通车，极大地推动了交通运输和经济发展，加上本地白云石矿盛产碳酸镁——石棉纤维原材料，魅力与恩赐公司(Keasbey and Mattison Company)便从费城搬迁到漫步者城并投入巨资，引进了意大利南部石匠来帮助建造400间宿舍别墅以供工人和管理人员使用，另有办公楼、歌剧院、三一纪念圣公会教堂(Trinity Memorial Episcopal Church)和恩赐私人庄园的菩提树林城堡(Lindenwold Castle)，定居下来的意大利移民又大大促进了其文化认同。1881年—1934年魅力与恩赐公司繁荣期间，大批非裔劳工的加盟，让漫步者城由此跃居世界石棉之都。一战后全球性经济大萧条使得该公司走向衰退，而石棉引起间皮瘤(mesothelioma)致癌率激增，漫步者城因为魅力与恩赐公司的最终破产而造受重创。 以下建筑仅是漫步者城商业区(Downtown Ambler)的一个缩影。

The asbestos-manufacturing companies pay for the removal and capping of contaminated soil, fencing and signage around the site, and erosion and sedimentation control. A dense stand of trees eventually grows on the site.
