 　　No one could withstand him, the Hound rasped. That's truth enough.  没人挡得住他，猎狗粗声道，此话倒是不假。

　　No one could ever withstand Gregor. That boy today, his second joust¹, oh, that was a pretty bit of business.  的确谁也挡不住格雷果。今天那小伙子，他第二次出场时的那个，喔，干得可真漂亮。

　　You saw that, did you? Fool boy, he had no business riding in this company.  你也看见了吧？那小呆瓜根本是自讨苦吃，

　　No money, no squire², no one to help him with that armor. That gorget wasn't fastened proper.  没钱没跟班又没人帮他穿好盔甲。他的护喉根本就没绑好，

　　You think Gregor didn't notice that?  你以为格雷果没注意到？

　　You think Ser Gregor's lance rode up by chance, do you?  你以为格雷果爵士先生的长枪是不小心往上扬，是吗？

　　You know you want to.  我知道你想看得很。

　　I've watched you turning away all the way down the kingsroad.  国王大道上你一路都故意躲着它，

　　Piss on that. Take your look. 别假惺惺了，爱看就看。

　　His eyes watched hers. Drunken eyes, sullen⁵ with anger. She had to look. 们四目相对，他那双满是醉意的眼里闪着怒火。她不得不看。

　　The right side of his face was gaunt, with sharp cheekbones and a grey eye beneath a heavy brow.  他右半边脸形容憔悴，有着锐利颧骨和浓眉灰眼。

　　His nose was large and hooked, his hair thin, dark. He wore it long and brushed it sideways, because no hair grew on the other side of that face. 他有个鹰钩大鼻，头发色深而纤细。他故意把头发留长，梳到一边，因为他另半边脸半根头发也没有。
