Act III, Scene 1
Before the castle.

第一場　塞浦路斯。城堡前

[Enter CASSIO and some Musicians]
Cassio. Masters, play here; I will content your pains; Something that's brief; and bid 'Good morrow, general.' 
[Music]
[Enter Clown]

　 　　　凱西奧及若干樂工上。 
凱西奧 列位朋友，就在這兒奏起來吧；我會酬勞你們的。奏一支簡短一些的樂曲，敬祝我們的主帥晨安。（音樂。） 
　 　　　小丑上。 

Clown. Why masters, have your instruments been in Naples, that they speak i' the nose thus? 

小丑 怎麼，列位朋友，你們的樂器都曾到過那不勒斯，所以會這樣嗡嚨嗡嚨地用鼻音說話嗎？ 

First Musician. How, sir, how! 

樂工甲 怎麼，大哥，怎麼？ 

Clown. Are these, I pray you, wind-instruments? 

小丑 請問這些都是管樂器嗎？ 

First Musician. Ay, marry, are they, sir. 

樂工甲 正是，大哥。 

Clown. O, thereby hangs a tail. 

小丑 啊，怪不得下面有個那玩藝兒。

First Musician. Whereby hangs a tale, sir? 

樂工甲 怪不得有個什麼玩藝兒，大哥？ 

Clown. Marry. sir, by many a wind-instrument that I know. But, masters, here's money for you: and the general so likes your music, that he desires you, for love's sake, to make no more noise with it.

小丑 我說，有好多管樂器就都是這麼回事。可是，列位朋友，這兒是賞給你們的錢；將軍非常喜歡你們的音樂，他請求你們千萬不要再奏下去了。

First Musician. Well, sir, we will not. 

樂工甲 好，大哥，我們不奏就是了。 

Clown. If you have any music that may not be heard, to't again: but, as they say to hear music the general does not greatly care. 

小丑 要是你們會奏聽不見的音樂，請奏起來吧；可是正像人家說的，將軍對於聽音樂這件事不大感到興趣。 

First Musician. We have none such, sir. 

樂工甲 我們不會奏那樣的音樂。

Clown. Then put up your pipes in your bag, for I'll away: go; vanish into air; away! 
[Exeunt Musicians]

小丑 那麼把你們的笛子藏起來，因為我要去了。去，消滅在空氣裡吧；去！（樂工等下。） 

Cassio. Dost thou hear, my honest friend? 

凱西奧 你聽沒聽見，我的好朋友？ 

Clown. No, I hear not your honest friend; I hear you. 

小丑 不，我沒有聽見您的好朋友；我只聽見您。 

Cassio. Prithee, keep up thy quillets. There's a poor piece of gold for thee: if the gentlewoman that attends the general's wife be stirring, tell her there's one Cassio entreats her a little favour of speech: wilt thou do this? 

凱西奧 少說笑話。這一塊小小的金幣你拿了去；要是侍候將軍夫人的那位奶奶已經起身，你就告訴她有一個凱西奧請她出來說話。你肯不肯？ 

Clown. She is stirring, sir: if she will stir hither, I shall seem to notify unto her. 

小丑 她已經起身了，先生；要是她願意出來，我就告訴她。

Cassio. Do, good my friend.
[Exit Clown]
[Enter IAGO] 
In happy time, Iago. 

凱西奧 謝謝你，我的好朋友。（小丑下。） 
　 　　　伊阿古上。 

凱西奧 來得正好，伊阿古。 

Iago. You have not been a-bed, then? 

伊阿古 你還沒有上過床嗎？ 

Cassio. Why, no; the day had broke Before we parted. I have made bold, Iago, To send in to your wife: my suit to her Is, that she will to virtuous Desdemona Procure me some access. 

凱西奧 沒有；我們分手的時候，天早就亮了。伊阿古，我已經大膽叫人去請你的妻子出來；我想請她替我設法見一見賢德的苔絲狄蒙娜。

Iago. I'll send her to you presently; And I'll devise a mean to draw the Moor Out of the way, that your converse and business May be more free. 

伊阿古 我去叫她立刻出來見你。我還要想一個法子把那摩爾人調開，好讓你們談話方便一些。 

Cassio. I humbly thank you for't.
[Exit IAGO]
I never knew A Florentine more kind and honest. 
[Enter EMILIA]

凱西奧 多謝你的好意。（伊阿古下）我從來沒有認識過一個比他更善良正直的弗羅稜薩人。 
　 　　　愛米利婭上。 

Emilia. Good morrow, good Lieutenant: I am sorry For your displeasure; but all will sure be well. The general and his wife are talking of it;
And she speaks for you stoutly: the Moor replies, That he you hurt is of great fame in Cyprus, And great affinity, and that in wholesome wisdom
He might not but refuse you; but he protests he loves you And needs no other suitor but his likings To take the safest occasion by the front To bring you in again. 

愛米利婭 早安，副將！聽說您誤觸主帥之怒，真是一件令人懊惱的事；可是一切就會轉禍為福的。將軍和他的夫人正在談起此事，夫人竭力替您辯白，將軍說，被您傷害的那個人，在塞浦路斯是很有名譽、很有勢力的，為了避免受人非難起見，他不得不把您斥革；可是他說他很喜歡您，即使沒有別人替您說情，他由於喜歡您，也會留心著一有適當的機會，就讓您恢復原職的。

Cassio. Yet, I beseech you, If you think fit, or that it may be done, Give me advantage of some brief discourse With Desdemona alone. 

凱西奧 可是我還要請求您一件事：要是您認為沒有妨礙，或是可以辦得到的話，請您設法讓我獨自見一見苔絲狄蒙娜，跟她作一次簡短的談話。

Emilia. Pray you, come in; I will bestow you where you shall have time To speak your bosom freely. 

愛米利婭 請您進來吧；我可以帶您到一處可以讓您從容吐露您的心曲的所在。 

Cassio. I am much bound to you. 
[Exeunt] 

凱西奧 那真使我感激萬分了。（同下。）
