18 Still Waiting

18 Still Waiting Outside the fox's hole, Boggis and Bunce and Bean sat beside their tents with their guns on their laps. It was beginning to rain. Water was trickling down the necks of the three men and into their shoes. 'He won't stay down there much longer now,' Boggis said. 'The brute must be famished,' Bunce said. 'That's right,' Bean said. 'He'll be making a dash for it any moment. Keep your guns handy'

在狐狸的洞外，博吉斯、邦斯和比恩坐在他们的帐篷旁，腿上放着枪。 天开始下雨了。水顺着三个人的脖子往下淌，流进他们的鞋子里。 “他现在不会在下面待太久了，”博吉斯说。 “那畜生一定是饿坏了。”邦斯说。 “没错，”比恩说。 “他随时都会冲过去的。 把枪放在手边。”

They sat there by the hole, waiting for the fox to come out. And so far as I know, they are still waiting.

他们坐在洞边，等着狐狸出来。 据我所知，他们还在等。
