Julia was careless, and withal

一不小心，我的朱丽娅

She rather took than got a fall;

没能坐稳，竟然摔下了马。

The wanton ambler chanc’d to see

可那混蛋畜牲却得以一瞥

Part of her legs’ sincerity:

朱丽娅漏出一截腿的纯洁。

And ravish’d thus, it came to pass,

事实是，她遭到如此玷污， 

The nag (like to the prophet’s ass)

那匹马（犹如预言师的蠢驴）

Began to speak, and would have been

却突然开口，想说给所有人听

A-telling what rare sights he’d seen

它看到的是怎样难得的盛景；

And had told all; but did refrain

可它还没说出，就已被封口，

Because his tongue was tied again.

因为马嚼子拴住了它的舌头。
