Early in the morning the dreamers awoke and started their day's hard work. The people in the castle did not get up until later, but when they did, why did the great bell start ringing? Why did people ride out of the castle to the village as fast as they could?
一大早人们便从睡梦中醒来开始他们一天的辛勤劳作。城堡里的人很晚才会起床的。可等到他们起床时,为什么那个大钟开始响了起来呢?人们为什么骑着马拼命地从城堡往村子里跑呢?
The answer lay in the bed of the Marquis. He lay there, like stone, with a knife pushed into his heart. On his chest lay a piece of paper with the words:
答案就在侯爵的床上。侯爵像一块石头僵躺在床上。一把尖刀插进了他的心脏,在他的胸前放着一张纸条。上面写着:
'Drive him fast to his grave. This is from JACQUES.'
“快把他送进他的坟墓。这是雅克干的。”
