小时候看过纳西索斯迷恋自己湖水中的倒影,最后溺水而死化为水仙的故事。水仙的英文名也是narcissus。但没想到后面还有湖的故事:
The lake was silent for some time. Finally, it said: “I weep for Narcissus, but I never noticed that Narcissus was beautiful. I weep because, each time he knelt beside my banks, I could see, in the depths of his eyes, my own beauty reflected.”
湖说:我为纳西索斯哭泣,但我从未注意到他的俊美。我哭泣是因为,每次他跪在我岸边,我能在他眼睛深处看到我自己美丽的倒影(我能在他眼睛深处看到自己被映射的美)。
