Turn the page. Chapter 1 The Dead King It was a bitterly cold night in Elsinore, in the Kingdom of Denmark. Three men huddled together on the battlements of the King's castle. They were waiting for someone.

请翻页。 第一章 死去的国王 这是丹麦王国埃尔西诺尔一个冷得刺骨的夜晚。 三个男人挤在国王城堡的城垛上。 他们正在等什么人。

A young man named Horatio stood with two of the king's guards. I think you were seeing things last night, he began. I don't believe in go - Shhh! hissed one of the guards. It's here! Horatio gasped. A shadowy figure had appeared beside them.

一个叫霍雷肖的年轻人和两名国王的卫兵站在一起。 “我觉得你们昨晚是看错了，”他开口说道，“我才不信有幽——” “嘘！”其中一名卫兵嘶声说，“它来了！” 霍雷肖倒吸一口冷气，一个模糊的黑影出现在了他们身边。

"'It looks exactly like the King!' cried Horatio in terror. "'The dead King!' "'Why are you here?' he asked the figure. "'Please, speak!' But the ghost shook its head and did not reply. As the sun began to rise, he faded away into thin air. "'Cock -a -doodle -doo!' "'I must tell Hamlet,' said Horatio. "'Hamlet was his best friend and the dead King's son.'

“‘他长得和国王一模一样！’霍雷肖吓得大叫起来。 “‘是死去的国王！’ “‘你为什么会在这里？’他问那个黑影。 “‘求求你，开口说话吧！’ 可鬼魂摇了摇头，没有回答。 太阳开始升起的时候，他渐渐消失在了空气里。 “‘喔——喔——喔！’ “‘我得把这件事告诉哈姆雷特，’霍雷肖说。 “‘哈姆雷特是他最好的朋友，也是去世国王的儿子。’

Prince Hamlet had been utterly miserable since his father died. He kept himself and dressed mostly in black. Just one month after Hamlet lost his father, his mother had married the new king, his uncle. It made Hamlet's blood boil.

哈姆雷特王子自从父亲去世后就一直痛苦不堪。 他总是独来独往，几乎只穿黑色的衣服。 哈姆雷特失去父亲才刚过了一个月，他的母亲就嫁给了新 国王，也就是他的叔叔。这让哈姆雷特怒火中烧。

How could she forget his father so quickly? He was suspicious about his father's death, too. It had been so sudden. All these thoughts churned over and over in his mind. When Horatio came to see Hamlet the next morning, his friend was sitting alone, and looking very gloomy indeed.

她怎么能这么快就忘了父亲呢？他也对父亲的死充满了怀疑，一切都太突然了。这些念头在他脑海里翻来覆去，停不下来。 第二天早上霍雷肖来看哈姆雷特的时候，他正独自坐着，看起来心情格外低落。
