精彩书摘

　　晚饭后他在甲板上待了很长时间，然而这也无济于事。回到舱里，他还是无法入睡。连这种短暂的休息他也享受不到，这叫他无法忍受。他打开电灯，想看会儿书。有一本诗集是斯温伯恩的著作。他躺在床上翻阅了起来，翻着翻着突然来了兴趣。他把一个章节看完，还想朝下看，可不由又翻了回来。他将书反扣在胸口上，陷入沉思。答案就在这里，这就是答案。奇怪，以前他怎么就没想到过！所有的一切都在此不白自明；他的漫游一直都走的是这个方向，而今斯温伯恩向他指明这就是痛快的出路。他渴望安息，而归宿就在这里。他望了望敞开的舷窗，看到那儿倒是挺宽敞。几个星期以来，他第一次有了喜悦的心情，因为他终于找到了治疗自身病疾的良方。他捧起诗集，慢慢地朗诵那一节：

　　放弃了对生活的热恋，

　　摆脱恐惧、告别希望，

　　我们虔诚地祈祷，

　　感谢冥冥的上苍，

　　幸喜生命终有尽期；

　　死去的不复站起；

　　纵使疲倦的河流蜿蜒曲回，

　　总会平安归向海洋。

　　他又望了望那舷窗。斯温伯恩提供了答案。生活是一场噩梦，或者更确切地说，它变成了一场噩梦，化为叫人无法忍受的东西。“死去的不复站起！”这一诗行深深打动了他，令他感激涕零。这可是天地之间唯一叫人向往的事情。当生活充满了痛苦，令人厌倦的时候，死亡会哄你沉沉入睡、长眠不醒。还有什么可犹豫的呢？该走啦！

　　他立起身，抱头探出舷窗，低头望着那浑浊的浪花。马利波萨号满载着旅客，吃水很深，用两手抓住窗子，便可以把脚伸进水里。他可以无声无息地钻入水里，谁都听不见，一朵浪花飞溅起，打湿了他的面孔。他的嘴唇发咸，那味道很是不错。他想着是否应该写一篇绝笔，但随即便一笑置之。已经没有时间了，他迫不及待地要赴黄泉之路。

　　他熄掉舱里的灯，免得暴露行踪，然后把脚先伸出了舷窗，不料肩膀却被卡住了，于是他抽回身，将一条胳膊紧贴在身旁，再次朝外钻。船体的摆动帮了他的忙，他借力钻出，用手抓紧窗子。双脚一触到海水，他就松了手，落入浑浊的泡沫里。马利波萨号的舷体似一堵黑墙从他身边擦过，星星点点的舷窗里亮着灯光。轮船向前疾驶，几乎未待他清醒过来就把他甩到了后边。他慢慢地在泡沫飞溅的海面上游着。

　　一条鲣鱼在他白皙的身子上咬了一口，惹得他笑出了声。他身上掉了一块肉，疼痛感才使他想起了投海的目的。他刚才过于忙碌，竟忘了自己的目标。马利波萨号上的灯光在远方愈来愈模糊，而他却在这儿满怀信心地游着泳，就好像一门心思要游到千里开外的最近的陆地似的。

　　这是一种不由自主地求生本能。他停止了游泳，但一觉得海水漫过嘴，便又猛然伸手划水，让身子朝上浮。他心想这是求生的意志，随即便轻蔑地哼了一声。哈，他还有意志——坚强的意志！只消最后一用劲，这意志就会毁于一旦、烟消云散。

　　他变变姿势，直立起来，抬头望望静悄悄的群星，同时吐净了肺里的空气。他猛然手脚并用，狠劲划水，将肩膀和半个胸脯都露出水面。这样做是为了能在潜水时多一份冲力。接着，他放松身子，一动不动地朝下沉，似一尊白色雕像没入海中。他有意识地深深吸一口海水，就像一个人服麻醉剂一样。他感到窒息，可这时他的胳膊和腿却乱划一气，把他托出水面，使他又清楚地看到了群星。

　　他竭力不让空气进入他那快要破裂的肺里，但却徒劳一场。他不肩地心想这是求生的意志在作祟。看来，必须重新换一种方法。他把空气吸进肺里，让里边充得满满的，这样便可以潜得深一些。他转过身，头朝下用出全身的力气和全部的意志往底层游去。他愈潜愈深，睁眼望着那磷光闪闪、幽灵般冲来冲去的鲣鱼群。他一边游，一边希望那些鱼不要来咬他，因为那样会摧毁他紧绷的意志。幸好那些鱼没有咬他，于是他充满了感激之情，感谢生活赐给他这最后一点好处。

　　他不断地往下游，累得四肢发酸，几乎动弹不得。他知道自己已到了深处。他的耳膜被海水挤压得发痛，脑袋嗡嗡作响。他的耐受力正在崩溃，可他拼命划动四肢把自己朝更深处送，直至意志动摇，肺里的空气猛然喷射出来。一串串气泡朝上泛起，似小气球般跳动着，摩擦着他的脸颊和眼睛。旋踵而至的便是疼痛和窒息。他眩晕的大脑里闪过这样一个念头：这不是死亡，因为死亡没有痛苦。他还活着，这是生存的痛苦，是一种可怕的令人窒息的感觉。这是生活所能给予他的最后一击。

　　他那倔强的手脚开始击打水，间歇地，有气无力地划动。他愚弄了它们，愚弄了驱使它们击打和划动的求生意志。他游得太深了，它们已无法把他送到海面上去了。他似乎懒洋洋地漂浮在梦境的海洋里。五彩光环包裹着他、沐浴着他，浸透了他的身体。那是什么？好像是一座灯塔。其实，那东西仅存在于他的大脑中——是一道耀眼夺目的白光，闪动得愈来愈快。随着长长的一声轰隆巨响，他觉得自己滚下了非常长的一条宽楼梯。到了底层，他跌入黑暗之中。他明白自己坠入黑暗的世界。就在他明白这一点的瞬间，他的感觉停止了。

　　He stayed late on deck, after dinner, but that did not help him, for when he went below, he could not sleep. This surcease from life had failed him. It was too much. He turned on the electric light and tried to read. One of the volumes was a Swinburne. He lay in bed, glancing through its pages, until suddenly he became aware that he was reading with interest. He finished the stanza, attempted to read on, then came back to it. He rested the book face downward on his breast and fell to thinking. That was it. The very thing. Strange that it had never come to him before. That was the meaning of it all; he had been drifting that way all the time, and now Swinburne showed him that it was the happy way out. He wanted rest, and here was rest awaiting him. He glanced at the open port-hole. Yes, it was large enough. For the first time in weeks he felt happy. At last he had discovered the cure of his ill. He picked up the book and read the stanza slowly aloud:—

?? “‘From too much love of living,

????From hope and fear set free,

???We thank with brief thanksgiving

????Whatever gods may be

???That no life lives forever;

???That dead men rise up never;

????That even the weariest river

???Winds somewhere safe to sea.’”

　　He looked again at the open port. Swinburne had furnished the key. Life was ill, or, rather, it had become ill—an unbearable thing. “That dead men rise up never!” That line stirred him with a profound feeling of gratitude. It was the one beneficent thing in the universe. When life became an aching weariness, death was ready to soothe away to everlasting sleep. But what was he waiting for? It was time to go.

　　He arose and thrust his head out the port-hole, looking down into the milky wash. The Mariposa was deeply loaded, and, hanging by his hands, his feet would be in the water. He could slip in noiselessly. No one would hear. A smother of spray dashed up, wetting his face. It tasted salt on his lips, and the taste was good. He wondered if he ought to write a swan-song, but laughed the thought away. There was no time. He was too impatient to be gone.

　　Turning off the light in his room so that it might not betray him, he went out the port-hole feet first. His shoulders stuck, and he forced himself back so as to try it with one arm down by his side. A roll of the steamer aided him, and he was through, hanging by his hands. When his feet touched the sea, he let go. He was in a milky froth of water. The side of the Mariposa rushed past him like a dark wall, broken here and there by lighted ports. She was certainly making time. Almost before he knew it, he was astern, swimming gently on the foam-crackling surface.

　　A bonita struck at his white body, and he laughed aloud. It had taken a piece out, and the sting of it reminded him of why he was there. In the work to do he had forgotten the purpose of it. The lights of the Mariposa were growing dim in the distance, and there he was, swimming confidently, as though it were his intention to make for the nearest land a thousand miles or so away.

　　It was the automatic instinct to live. He ceased swimming, but the moment he felt the water rising above his mouth the hands struck out sharply with a lifting movement. The will to live, was his thought, and the thought was accompanied by a sneer. Well, he had will,—ay, will strong enough that with one last exertion it could destroy itself and cease to be.

　　He changed his position to a vertical one. He glanced up at the quiet stars, at the same time emptying his lungs of air. With swift, vigorous propulsion of hands and feet, he lifted his shoulders and half his chest out of water. This was to gain impetus for the descent. Then he let himself go and sank without movement, a white statue, into the sea. He breathed in the water deeply, deliberately, after the manner of a man taking an anaesthetic. When he strangled, quite involuntarily his arms and legs clawed the water and drove him up to the surface and into the clear sight of the stars.

　　The will to live, he thought disdainfully, vainly endeavoring not to breathe the air into his bursting lungs. Well, he would have to try a new way. He filled his lungs with air, filled them full. This supply would take him far down. He turned over and went down head first, swimming with all his strength and all his will. Deeper and deeper he went. His eyes were open, and he watched the ghostly, phosphorescent trails of the darting bonita. As he swam, he hoped that they would not strike at him, for it might snap the tension of his will. But they did not strike, and he found time to be grateful for this last kindness of life.

　　Down, down, he swam till his arms and leg grew tired and hardly moved. He knew that he was deep. The pressure on his ear-drums was a pain, and there was a buzzing in his head. His endurance was faltering, but he compelled his arms and legs to drive him deeper until his will snapped and the air drove from his lungs in a great explosive rush. The bubbles rubbed and bounded like tiny balloons against his cheeks and eyes as they took their upward flight. Then came pain and strangulation. This hurt was not death, was the thought that oscillated through his reeling consciousness. Death did not hurt. It was life, the pangs of life, this awful, suffocating feeling; it was the last blow life could deal him.

　　His wilful hands and feet began to beat and churn about, spasmodically and feebly. But he had fooled them and the will to live that made them beat and churn. He was too deep down. They could never bring him to the surface. He seemed floating languidly in a sea of dreamy vision. Colors and radiances surrounded him and bathed him and pervaded him. What was that? It seemed a lighthouse; but it was inside his brain—a flashing, bright white light. It flashed swifter and swifter. There was a long rumble of sound, and it seemed to him that he was falling down a vast and interminable stairway. And somewhere at the bottom he fell into darkness. That much he knew. He had fallen into d 双语译林 壹力文库：马丁·伊登 电子书 下载 mobi epub pdf txt
