I walked aft until i reached the mainmast 我朝船尾走去，到主桅前边停了下来。

Aii hands about ship ! off tacks and sheets ! prepare the mainsail to haul 全体船员！离开船舷！准备拉动主桅！
3.
For the mainmast , lads 瞄准主桅,各位
4.
We can patch up the main and mizzen . foresail ' s gone , so we ' ii bend our spare 我们可以修好主桅以及后桅前桅的大帆也不能用了，我们只好用备用的
5.
I placed my palms against the mainmast , which was of a goodish bigness , and waited , every nerve upon the stretch 我抱住相当粗的主桅等着，每一根神经都绷紧了。
6.
That hill to the nor ard they calls the fore - mast hill ; there are three hills in a row running south ard - fore , main , and mizzen , sir 北边的那座小山他们叫做前桅山从那儿向南看，并列的是三座山前桅主桅和后桅，阁下。
7.
Just forward of the mainmast i stopped , drew a pistol from my pocket , took a cool aim , though he had already turned and was once more coming directly after me , and drew the trigger 我在主桅前站住，从口袋里取出一支手枪。尽管他已经转过身来，再次向我直扑过来。我还是镇定地瞄准后扣动扳机。
8.
But the main - that s the big un , with the cloud on it - they usually calls the spy - glass , by reason of a look - out they kept when they was in the anchorage cleaning ; for it s there they cleaned their ships , sir , asking your pardon 但是主桅就是大的上面有云的那座他们通常叫它望远镜山，因为当他们在锚地洗船时，总派个人在那里担任观望因为他们就是在那儿洗船，阁下。不当之处，请您见ino ”

Towards evening the mate and boat - swain begg d the master of our ship to let them cut away the foremast , which he was very unwilling to : but the boat - swain protesting to him , that if he did not , the ship would founder , he consented ; and when they had cut away the foremast , the main - mast stood so loose , and shook the ship so much , they were obliged to cut her away also , and make a clear deck 但水手长抗议说，如果船长不同意砍掉前桅，船就会沉没。这样，船长也只好答应了。但船上的前桅一砍下来，主桅随风摇摆失去了控制，船也随着剧烈摇晃，于是他们又只得把主桅也砍掉。

The ship drew on and had safely passed the strait , which some volcanic shock has made between the calasareigne and jaros islands ; had doubled pom gue , and approached the harbor under topsails , jib , and spanker , but so slowly and sedately that the idlers , with that instinct which is the forerunner of evil , asked one another what misfortune could have happened on board 尽管船上扯起了三张主桅帆，一张大三角帆和一张后桅帆，但它驶得非常缓慢，一副无精打采的样子，以致岸上那些看热闹的人本能地预感到有什么不幸的事发生了，于是互相探问船上究竟发生了什么不幸的事。
