The sea in the loch was deep. and themountains on each side were high，rough and wild.
It was a hard country，but Alan loved it.
林尼灣內水很深，兩岸的高山崎嶇荒涼，是一個貧瘠的地區，可是艾倫喜歡它。
The sun was shining on the water - side in thedistance. From the boat，I saw something moving alongthe coast there. I saw the red of soldiers’coatsand the flash of steel . The troops were marching againstthe tenants of Appin. It was a sad thought.
一輪紅日照著遠處的水邊。我從小船裏看到那邊海岸上有一些東西在移動。我看清了，是士兵們的紅色號衣和刀劍在閃光。他們正向亞品行進，去鎮壓那裏佃戶。想到這裏我心裏感到難過。
We crossed the loch，and the boatman put meashore. Above me I saw the wood of Lettermorem.
Birch trees grew on the mountain - side and brackencovered the ground. A road ran north and souththrough the middle of the wood. I sat down by theedge to eat some bread，and to think of my position.
我們駛到海灣對麵，船夫讓我上了岸。我看見萊特莫森林矗立在麵前。山坡上長著樺樹，山下遍地都是羊齒植物。林中有一條南北方向的大道。我坐在森林外麵，邊吃麵包邊考慮自己的處境。
I remembered Mr Henderland’s words aboutthe Appin Stewarts. They made me anxious. Whatought I to do？Why was I going to Alan？He was
我想起亨德蘭德先生講的有關亞品的斯圖爾特家族的話，感到心神不寧。我該怎麼辦呢？我為什麼要去找艾倫呢？他是個不服王法的
an outlaw - perhaps a murderer. Why did I not turnand walk back south to my own country？
人--也許還是個殺人犯呢？我幹嗎不轉身往南走，返回自己的故鄉去呢？
I was sitting and thinking，when I heard asound of men and horses. Four people were comingalong the road through the birch trees. It was narrowand rough here. They were walking one behindanother，and leading their horses.
我正坐在那兒考慮時，聽見有說話聲和馬蹄聲。四個人從樺樹林中的路上走過來了。那一段路又狄窄又凹凸不平，他們牽著馬，排成一行走著。
The first was a great，proud gentleman withred hair. The second wore neat black dress and awhite wig. I saw he was a lawyer. The third was aservant，and the fourth a sheriff，an officer of thelaw.
打頭的是一位長著紅頭發、身材高大、滿臉傲氣的紳士。第二個穿著整潔的黑衣服，戴著白色假發。
看得出來，他是一位律師。第三個是仆人，第四個是一位行政司法長官。
When the first man reached me，I rose fromthe bracken. I asked the way to Aucharn.
第一個人走到我跟前時，我站起身來，打聽去奧查恩怎麼走。
The gentleman stopped and looked at mestrangely. He turned to the lawyer.
