【Le Monocle de Mon Oncle-III (1918)】 Wallace Stevens (1879—1955) Is it for nothing, then, that old Chinese Sat tittivating by their mountain pools Or in the Yangtse studied out their beards? I shall not play the flat historic scale. You know how Utamaro's beauties sought The end of love in their all-speaking braids. You know the mountainous coiffures of Bath. Alas! Have all the barbers lived in vain That not one curl in nature has survived? Why, without pity on these studious ghosts, Do you come dripping in your hair from sleep? —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— • —— 【《我叔叔的单片眼镜·之三》(1918)】 异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒) 【红霞译】 难道中国老人家闲得无聊? 不是置身山涧整理装束 就是徜徉长江捣饬胡须? 我不应演奏平庸的时段音阶。 要知道浮世绘歌唱画家的美女们如何 从会讲话的发辫里寻求爱情的终结。 亦即水眼城的山峦型发式。 哎呀! 难道理发师全都白让 大自然中一丝爱意化为乌有? 为什么,漠视这些孜孜幽魂, 你醒来头发冒汗? 【注】雪后的纽约早晨寒气袭人,宾州火车站外温度仅有24oF/-4oC,我后悔没穿上昨天扫雪的厚实长衣而只是轻便的短外套,从中城制衣区到下城休北区架不住溜达二、三个钟头,感觉浑身差点被冻成冰棍,于是转念疾扑大衣铺子,打算先裹件棉猴再继续上路。 话说在我居住的宾州,服装鞋帽通常不征收6%的销售税,除非礼服、有些真皮和合成毛皮制品、戏装以及诸如头盔、棒球手套、速比涛(Speedo)泳衣等专项运动服;而在此地,只有购买金额$110以下的服装鞋帽方才免征4.5%纽约市与4%纽约州(合计8.5%)的销售税。我前后试穿了以下运动店时装: 1) REI (休闲设备):“户外研究·舒适”牌羽绒大衣$399 2) Addidas (出色桶匠):宽松衬芯“回收聚酯”纺制大衣$500 3) Nike (胜利女神):旋风羽绒“金标棉·保暖内衬”宽松大衣$216.97 4) Urban Outfitters (城市快捷时尚):“憔悴巴黎·城市运营”独家刺绣徽标羽绒服$325 由此看来,想要在纽约城里淘到免税的羽绒大衣并非易事。 Today in History(历史上的今天): 2024: Church of Our Saviour, NYC(纽约城·救世主罗马天主教堂) 2024: St. Mark's Church in-the-Bowery NYC(纽约城·农场街光辉圣徒教堂) 2024: Street Swimmers on Park Ave, NYC(纽约城·公园大道街头游泳者) 2024: World's Largest Grand Ctr Terminal, NYC(纽约世上最大的火车站) 2024: Hutong in Awesome Setting, NYC(纽约城·非比寻常的“胡同”食府)
