“A.E.HOUSMAN(1859-1930)”写的：“When I was one and twenty（一首著名诗作）”
When I was one and twenty
I heard a wise man say,
"Give crowns and pounds and guineas,
But not your heart away;
Give pearls away and rubies
But keep your fancy free."
But I was one-and-twenty,
NO use to talk to me.
When I was two and twenty
I heard him say again
"The heart out of the bossom
Was never given in vain;
'Tis paid with sighs a plenty
And sold for endless rue."
And I am two-and-twenty,
And oh,'tis true,'tis true.
我二十一岁的时候
听一位智者说,
“宁舍王冠金银,
勿轻易捐情输心；
宁舍弃稀世珍宝,
勿丢掉幻想之神.”
可惜我当时二十一岁
对此充耳不闻.
我二十二岁的时候
又听智者说：
“人胸口捧出的心啊,
永远不会白白送人；
它换来的是悠悠哀叹
和不尽的悔恨.”
我现在二十二岁了
唉,这话千真万确,万确千真.
