Chapter 28 cloud

cloud For thirsty flowers, from rivers, from seas, bring fresh rain; I put a light shade on the green leaves, when they Rest in the dreamland of the siesta. Shake the dew from my wings, to awaken Every sweet bud, Shaking as their mother dances around the sun make them fall asleep in their arms. I shake the flail of the hail, and turn the green fields Beaten like silver; Then melt the ice and snow with rainwater, I burst out laughing, When I walk through the thunder. I sifted snowflakes and sprinkled them all over the peaks and mountains of the lower world, The giant pine groans and calls out in terror;

The snow is my pillow all night long, When I sleep soundly under the caress of the strong wind. On the tower of my castle in the air, sits Majestic lightning - my charioteer, Below is a cave in which the thunder is imprisoned, let out a burst of struggle and roar; Over land and sea, my charioteer guide me gently, Fairies deep in the purple waves, with their love tempted his heart; Across lakes, rivers, plains, and cliffs and rolling hills, Wherever he yearns, the spirit he loves Always at the bottom of the mountain, in the water; Although he will dissolve in the rain, I will always

Bathed in a heavenly blue smile. ② The blood-red morning sun opens his fireball eyes, When the light is extinguished, Then shake off his flaming feathers and jump on me The back of Feixia with sails galloping; Like a fallen eagle, with golden wings, in an earthquake Rocking, quivering, steep peaks Stay for a brief moment. When the setting sun spills from the shimmering sea Passion longing for love and rest, And above, the crimson curtain of dusk rises from The depths of the sky descend; I fold my wings and rest in an ethereal nest like a dove As quiet as when hatching. A girl with a round face glowing with white flames,

Mortals call her the Moon, Dimly glowing, gliding in the night wind on my woolen rug; Wherever her invisible feet tread lightly, So light that only angels can hear, If you break the qingluo on the top of my tent, The stars peeped from behind her; I couldn't help laughing, seeing them running around, Like a swarm of golden bees, When I widen the cracks in my wind-made tent, Until the peaceful rivers, lakes and oceans Like patches of sky falling through me, Embedded with these stars and moons. I wrapped the throne of the sun with burning ribbons, Embrace the moon with a beam of pearls;

Volcanoes eclipsed, stars shaken and jolted— When the whirlwind flies my banner. From corner to corner, like a huge long bridge, The raging waves of the ocean; I hang high in the sky, like a sun-impermeable roof, The pillars are lofty mountains. With ice and snow, hurricane, and blazing fire, I carry, Through the arch of the triumphal arch, At this time, the power of the atmosphere dragged my car seat, The arch is a majestic rainbow; Spheres of fire weave soft colors above, The wet earth smiles. I am the daughter of earth and water, Also the adopted son of the sky, I go to and from all pores of sea and land—

I change, but I don't die. Because although the sky washed after the rain is naked, And, spotless, Wind and sun with their cabochons Build the dome of the blue sky, I silently laugh at my own empty grave, out of the rain cave, Like a baby from its mother, like a ghost from a cemetery, I vacated and demolished it again. Translated by Jiang Feng ① means that the earth revolves around the sun. ② For the above ten lines, note home W.Alexander commented as follows: "These lines use What kind of natural phenomenon is described by the language of poetry is not clear. But since the lightning is the driver of the clouds, it might be possible for Shelley to think that the influence

The movement of the clouds is caused by the opposite sex electricity on the ground, which is referred to here as It's a fairy.And the part where the driver drives the cloud to the earth is his dream Think of where fairies or elves (i.e. electricity of the opposite sex) are located.And because of this electric Affected, the lower layer of the cloud turns into rain, while the upper layer is still bathed in the blue sky. smile.
