轻松学英语，读《威廉·莎士比亚》初级双语小说连载-04(2)
约翰·莎士比亚是一位手工匠，同时经营其他生意。如羊的买卖生意。但威尔对做生意却不感兴趣。
‘What are we going to do, Toby?’ he said to me one day.
“托比，接下来你有何打算？”有一天他问我。
‘We can’t spend all our lives making shoes and gloves!’
“我们不能一辈子都做鞋匠何做手套吧！”
‘Well,’ I said ‘we could run away to sea and be sailors. Sail around the world, like Francis Drake.
“对呀，”我说，“我们跑到海上当海员吧，像弗朗西斯·杜雷克一样环绕地球航行。”
Drake sailed back to Plymouth in 1581, after his three-year journey around the world, but we were still in Stratford.
杜雷克在环绕地球航行三年后于1581年回到普利茅斯，可我们还是呆在斯特拉福镇。
We made lots of plans, but nothing ever came of them.
尽管也制定了种种计划，但始终未诸行动。
Will was still reading a lot of and he was already writing poems himself.
这段时间威尔依然博览群书并开始自己写诗。
He sometimes showed them to me, and I said they were very good.
