【The Good Man Has No Shape (1947)】

Wallace Stevens (1879—1955)

    Through centuries he lived in poverty.

    God only was his only elegance.

    Then generation by generation he grew

    Stronger and freer, a little better off.

    He lived each life because, if it was bad,

    He said a good life would be possible.

    At last the good life came, good sleep, bright fruit,

    And Lazarus betrayed him to the rest,

    Who killed him, sticking feathers in his flesh

    To mock him. They placed with him in his grave

    Sour wine to warn him, an empty book to read;

    And over it they set a jagged sign,

    Epitaphium to his death, which read,

    The Good Man Has No Shape, as if they knew.

【《善人无形》(1947)】

异乡人·史蒂文斯(1879生—1955卒)

【红霞译】

            他世代贫穷。

            只有上帝才是他唯一的优雅。

            一代接着一代变得

            更强大、更自由，境况有所改善。

            他前世今生，即便不尽人意，

            且说要过上舒坦日子。

            舒坦日子终于到来，睡好觉、鲜果子，

            神助向别人出卖了他，

            还致他于死地，把羽毛插在他身上

            来嘲笑他。他们在他的坟墓里摆放

            酸葡萄酒来警告他、空白书来翻阅；

            他们竖起锯齿形标牌，

            其墓志铭写着：

            善人无形，好像早有所知。
