　　"Don't you try and frighten me, my lady. “夫人，你少跟我来这套。

　　Your husband's in some traitor's cell under the Red Keep, your father's sick, might be dying, and Jaime Lannister's got your brother in chains. 你丈夫因叛国被关在红堡底下的牢房，你老爹卧病在床，弄不好快没气了，而詹姆·兰尼斯特又抓了你老弟，

　　What do you have that I should fear? 你拿什么来吓唬我？

　　That son of yours? 你那宝贝儿子吗？

　　I'll match you son for son, and I'll still have eighteen when yours are all dead." 我可以跟你一个换一个，等你儿子死光了，我还剩下十八个。”

　　Joffrey's the king now, and that makes you and your boy and all those fools out there no better than rebels. 这会儿既然乔佛里是国王了，你和你家小鬼，以及外面那群蠢蛋不就是叛徒嘛？对不对？

　　If I had the sense the gods gave a fish, I'd help the Lannisters boil you all." 这事连鱼都知道，我应该帮兰尼斯特把你们通通杀光。”

　　"Why don't you?" she challenged him. “那你为什么不帮他？”她质问他。

　　Lord Walder snorted with disdain². 瓦德侯爵不屑地哼了一声。

　　"Lord Tywin the proud and splendid, Warden³ of the West, Hand of the King, oh, “泰温大人，他可是个大人物哩，既是西境守护，又是御前首相，呵，
