caught them by the throats and smashed their skulls together while that skinny lad beside him was opening Lannister's cell with a bit of wire, gods curse him.

If you ask me, the man sounded nothing like me, and yet the oafs were raising the portcullis all the same."

This was the Imp's work, Catelyn suspected;
这是小恶魔的把戏，凯特琳揣测，

“喔，事情发生时，我恰巧不在城里。
I'd crossed the Tumblestone to, ah..."
我去腾石河对面……喔……”
"You were whoring or wenching. Get on with the tale."
“混妓院还是去偷情？继续刚才的故事。”

"It was the hour before dawn, and I was only then returning.

When Long Lew saw my boat and recognized me, he finally thought to wonder who was standing below barking commands, and raised a cry."
长人卢远远看到我的船，认出我的面容，终于开始怀疑昨晚到底是谁在城下发号施令，便发出警报。”

Jaime got hold of a sword, slew Poul Pernford and Ser Desmond's squire Myles,

At the sound of steel, some of the other red cloaks rushed to join him, barehand or no.

We'll have no more escapes from that one.
我们不会再让他逃掉了，这一次，
He's down in the dark this time, chained hand and foot and bolted to the wall."
他被关进黑牢，戴上手铐脚镣，拴在墙上。”
"And Cleos Frey?"
“克里奥·佛雷呢？”
"He swears he knew naught of the plot. Who can say?
“他发誓一点也不知情。谁知道？
The man is half Lannister, half Frey, and all liar.
他一半是兰尼斯特，一半是佛雷，两者都是骗子。
I put him in Jaime's old tower cell."
我把他关进詹姆以前在塔里的囚室。”
