Grant remembered Lee very well.
李将军不怎么记得格兰特。
Lee didn't quite remember Grant.
从他们很久以前就认识
That was understandable
这点来说,那样的场面是可以理解的;
from the time that they were acquainted back in the early days,
但我认为那是因为
but I think it was the sensitivity that
两个人对于彼此、对于那个时刻的敏感,
the two men had for each other and for the moment,
有极度的尊重,但也有必要的失礼——
enormous dignity and yet the necessary informality--
格兰特不想太快切入正题,
Grant not wanting to get to the point too quickly,
李将军马上把他引到他们为什么在这里的话题上来;
Lee bringing him up shortly to the point of why they're together;
李穿着他最后一套高级制♥服♥,
Lee dressed in his last good uniform,
格兰特道歉说,他从战场赶来,没时间换衣服。
Grant apologizing that he was rushing from the field and didn't have time to change;
抄写员没法把笔拿稳,
The scribe being unable to hold the pen steady
就让另一个士兵握住它。
and having it taken by another soldier;
从罗伯特.李的观点来看,这是个糟糕的时刻,
The, uh...that, from Lee's point of view, awful moment,
从格兰特的观点看是个光荣的时刻,而从两人来看,
and from Grant's point of view, glorious moment, and yet for the two of them,
一个伤心而平静的时刻;
a sad and quiet moment;
在获得合理的条件之后,
and Lee taking his leave
李将军告辞,在“旅行者”上脱帽致意,
(“旅行者”是罗伯特.李的著名坐骑)
and doffing his hat from traveller and riding back to his troops
然后骑马返回他的部队。
after securing those reasonable terms.
这是国家统一的开始。
It was the beginning of the unification of the country.
格兰特提出的条件简单而慷慨。
The terms Grant offered were simple and generous.
南方邦联军官可以保留随身武器和个人财产。
Confederate officers could keep their side-arms and personal possessions.
拥有马匹的军官和士兵也可以保留马匹。
Officers and men who owned their own horses could keep them, too.
时值播种季节。
It was planting season.
格兰特问李将军他有多少人,是否需要口粮。
Grant asked Lee how many men he had and if they needed any rations.
李说他也无法知道自己军队的规模了,
Lee said he no longer knew the size of his army,
但他确信他所有部下都很饿。
but he was sure all his men were hungry.
格兰特提供了2万5千份口粮。
Grant offered 25,000 rations.
“这将在我的部下当中产生最佳效果。
"This will have the best effect upon my men.
这很让人欣慰,对安抚我们的人♥大♥有裨益。”
It will be very gratifying and do much toward conciliating our people."
伊莱.S.帕克上校是塞内卡印地安人,
格兰特的随员之一,
Colonel Eli S. Parker, a Seneca Indian and a member of Grant's staff,
他把投降条款写下来,供两位指挥官签字。
inscribed the articles of surrender for the two commanders to sign.
两个人再次握手。
The two men shook hands again.
李离开屋子,跨上战马,向他的军队走去。
Lee left the house, mounted traveller, and started back toward his army.
北军士兵开始欢呼。
The Union soldiers began to cheer.
格兰特命令他们停下来。
Grant ordered them to stop.
“南军现在是我们的俘虏了,”他解释说,
"The Confederates are now our prisoners," he explained,
“我们不想为他们的垮台而欢呼雀跃。
"and we do not want to exult over their downfall.
“战争结束了。
"The war is over.
叛军再次成为了我们的国民。”
The rebels are our countrymen again."
罗伯特.李的部队在通往营地的路上排成一行。
Lee's men lined the road to his camp.
“当他走近时,我们可以看到缰绳松弛下来,
"As he approached, We could see the reins hanging loose,
他的头低垂在胸前。
"and his head was sunk low on his breast.
“当士兵们开始欢呼,他抬起头,手里拿着帽子,
"As the men began to cheer, he raised his head, and, hat in hand,
他走了过去,满脸通红,眼中燃烧着火焰。”
he passed by, his face flushed, his eyes ablaze."
“当他走过时,
"As he passed,
“他们眼含热泪抬头望着他。
"they raised their heads and looked upon him with swimming eyes.
“那些讲不出再见的人们。
"Those who could find voice said good-bye.
那些轻轻伸出手放在‘旅行者’的马身两侧
却无语凝噎的人。”
Those who could not speak passed their hands gently over the sides of traveller."
“如果说一支军队辍饮胜利的喜悦,
另一支喝下失败的苦酒,
"If one army drank the joy of victory and the other the bitter draught of defeat,
“那么喜悦感会因回首曾付出的代价
"It was a joy moderated by the recollection of the cost
“变得逐渐减少;
"at which it had been purchased
“而挫败感会因往昔辉煌的觉醒得到抚慰。
"and a defeat mollified by the consciousness of many triumphs.
“但愿胜利者能记得莫尔文山、安提坦、
葛底斯堡、五岔口,
"If the victors could recall a Malvern Hill, an Antietam, a Gettysburg, a Five Forks,
失败者能记得马纳萨斯、弗雷德里克斯堡、
钱瑟勒斯维尔、冷港。”
The vanquished could recall a Manassas, a Fredericksburg, a Chancellorsville, a Cold Harbor."
一群士兵等在李将军的帐篷前。
A crowd of soldiers waited in front of Lee's tent.
“孩子们,”他告诉他们,
"Boys," he told them,
“我已经为你们尽了全力。现在回家吧,
"I have done the best I could for you. Go home now,
“如果你们象当兵一样当个好公民,那就很好,
"And if you make as good citizens as you have soldiers, you will do well,
“我会永远为你们感到自豪。
"and I shall always be proud of you.
再会,上帝保佑你们大家。”
Good-bye, and God bless you all."
他转身消失在自己帐篷里。
He turned and disappeared into his tent.
正式投降仪式在3天后举♥行♥。
The formal surrender came 3 days later.
约翰.B.戈登,
General John B. Gordon,
这位曾在效力南军期间脸部被击穿、
负伤4次以上的将军,
shot through the face and wounded 4 more times in the service of the Confederacy,
率领2万人朝着北军阵地最后一次前进——
led 20,000 men toward the Union lines for the last time--
不是去战斗,而是堆起武器和交出战旗。
not to fight, but to stack their arms and surrender their battle flags.
接收他们的是约书亚.劳伦斯.张伯伦少将,
There to receive them was Major General Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain,
他本人曾为北军负伤6次。
himself wounded six times for the Union.
他在彼得斯堡战场濒死时获得晋升,奇迹般活了下来。
Promoted on the field at Petersburg near death, he had somehow survived.
“他们来了,迈着老式便步走的摇摆步伐,
举着摇晃的战旗。
"On they come with the old swinging route step and swaying battle flags.
“带着自尊的屈辱站在我们面前的
是一群真正的男子汉——
"Before us in proud humiliation stood the embodiment of manhood--
“瘦削、疲惫而饥饿,但挺直腰杆,平视我们的眼睛,
"thin, worn, and famished, but erect and with eyes looking level into ours,
“如此唤醒我们的记忆,把我们和他们联♥系♥在一起。
"waking memories that bound us together as no other bond.
“难道不该欢迎这帮男子汉回到
久经考验、值得信赖的联邦吗?
"Was not such manhood to be welcomed back into the Union so tested and assured?
“在我们这边,不再有小号♥声,也没有敲战鼓,
"On our part, not a sound of trumpet more nor roll of drum,
“没有欢呼,没有言语,
没有自得的耳语,没有肢体动作,
"not a cheer nor word nor whisper of vain glorying nor motion of man,
“只有一种充满敬畏的寂静,屏住呼吸,
"but an awed stillness, rather, and breath-holding,
仿佛那是些逝去的死者。”
as if it were the passing of the dead."
约书亚.劳伦斯.张伯伦
Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain.
此时张伯伦做了一个不寻常的举动。
Now Chamberlain made an extraordinary gesture.
“张伯伦让他的士兵站成一排,
"Chamberlain called his men into line,
“当我的士兵行进到他们面前时,
"and as my men marched in front of them,
“穿蓝制♥服♥的老兵们向战败的英雄们行了一个军礼,
"the veterans in blue gave a soldierly salute to those vanquished heroes,
这象征着美国人对美国人的敬意。”
a token of respect from Americans to Americans."
约翰.B.戈登将军
General John B. Gordon.
“听到手臂齐刷刷的噼啪敬礼声,
"At the sound of that machinelike snap of arms,
“戈登将军策马向前,
"General Gordon started,
“然后他拨转战马,面朝着我,
"then wheeled his horse, facing me,
“用马刺轻触马身,让马略微抬起前蹄,
"touching him gently with the spur so that the animal slightly reared,
“接着,当他转身时,马匹和骑手做了一个动作。
"and, as he wheeled, horse and rider made one motion.
“马头向下摇摆,优雅的鞠了一个躬,
"the horse's head swung down with a graceful bow,
戈登将军垂下他的剑指向脚趾致敬。”
and General Gordon dropped his sword point to his toe in salutation."
[焰火声]
[fireworks exploding]
在华盛顿,烟花缀满了天空。
In Washington, fireworks filled the sky.
铺天盖地的人群聚集在白宫周围,呼唤着林肯。
A great crowd gathered around the White House and called for Lincoln.
他过于疲惫,无法发表正式演说,
但安排乐队演奏了《迪克西》。
He was too weary to make a formal speech but asked the band to play Dixie.
“我一直觉得这是我听过的最好的曲子,”他说。
"I have always thought it one of the best tunes I ever heard," he said.
第二天,林肯走到第7街和D街拐角处的
The next day, Lincoln walked over to Alexander Gardner's studio
亚历山大.加德纳的工作室,坐下来拍另一幅肖像照。
at the corner of Seventh and D Street to sit for another portrait.
不知何故,照相玻璃底板在显影过程中裂开了。
Somehow, the glass-plate negative cracked while being developed.
摄影师制♥作♥了一张相片,就扔掉了底板。
The photographer made a single print, then threw the negative away.
在接下来的4年里,还有很多时间拍更多的林肯肖像。
Over the next 4 years, there would be plenty of time to make more Lincoln portraits.
仅几个街区之外,约翰.威尔克斯.布斯的朋友
发现他独自坐在昏暗的房♥间里,
Just a few blocks away, a friend found John Wilkes Booth alone in his darkened room
于是问他要不要喝点什么。
and asked him if he wanted to get a drink.
布斯现在每天喝1夸脱白兰地,“好的,”他说,
"Yes," said Booth, who was now drinking a quart of brandy a day,
“任何能够赶走北军的东西都可以。”
"anything to drive away the Blues."
