Chapter 7 At the King's palace
第7章 在王宫里
Although Glumdalclitch tried to make things as comfort- able aspossible for me，such an exhausting life was beginning to havea bad effect on my health.I was becoming thinner andthinner.When my master noticed this，he thought I wouldnot live much longer.But it was clear that he wanted to makeas much money out of me as he could.
尽管葛兰达克利赤尽可能使一切对我来说舒适些，如此使人精疲力尽的生活对我的健康还是开始产生了不良影响，我越来越瘦了。当主人注意到这点，他认为我活不长了，但是他显然想从我身上捞到尽可能多的钱。
While he was thinking how to do this，he was asked to bring me to the palace.The Queen andher ladies had heard about me and wanted to see me.When we arrived in front of the Queen，Ifell on my knees and begged to be allowed to kiss her foot.But she kindly held out her hand tome.I took her little finger in both my arms，and put it very politely to my lips.She seemed verypleased with me，and finally she said，Would you enjoy living here in the palace，do you think?
他正在考虑怎么做到这一点时，他被要求带我进官。王后和她的贵妇听说了我，想见见我。当我们到达王后的面前，我双膝跪下，请求吻她的脚，但是她仁慈地把手伸给了我。我双臂抱着她的小指，非常礼貌地放到我的双唇上。她似乎对我很高兴，最后她说，你觉得，你会喜欢住在宫里吗?
Great queen，I answered，I must do what my master wants，but if I were free，I would want tospend my whole life obeying your orders.She immediately arranged to buy me from mymaster.He was delighted to receive a good price for me，especially as he felt sure I would notlive longer than a month.
伟大的王后，我回答说，我必须按我主人的要求做，不过要是我是自由的话，我愿意一生都听从您的使唤。她马上安排从我的主人那儿买过我。他非常高兴我能卖到好价钱，特别是他很肯定我活不过一个月。
I also begged the Queen to let Glumdalclitch stay with me，because she had always taken suchgood care of me.The Queen agreed，and Glumdalclitch could not hide her happiness.
我也请求王后让葛兰达克利赤留下来陪我，因为她照料我一直照料得很好。王后同意了，葛兰达克利赤也掩饰不住她的喜悦。
