My tillicum did not use the word 'lure' in telling me this legend.

我的 tillicum 在告诉我这传说时并没有使用“诱惑”这词。

My young tillicum had finished his tradition, and his great, solemn eyes regarded me half-wistfully.

我年轻的 tillicum 已经完成了他的传统，他那双严肃的大眼睛若有所思地看着我。

I had learned to love silences when with my old tillicum, for they always led to a legend.

和我的老蒂莉库姆在起时， 我学了热爱沉默， 因为它们引出传奇。

He loved them better than food, better than his tillicums, better than his life.

他爱它们胜过爱食物， 爱他的荚， 爱他的生命。

But all our young men, except one, returned as they went — kind to the poor, kind to those who were foodless, sharing whatever they had with their tillicums.

但我们所有的年轻人，除了，像他们去的样回来了——善待穷人，善待​​那些没有食物的人，分享他们拥有的切。

My old tillicum lifted his paddle-blade to point towards it. 'You know the story'? he asked. I shook my head (experience has taught me his love of silent replies, his moods of legend-telling).

我的老铁匠举起他的桨叶指向它。 '你知道这故事'？他问。我摇摇头（经验告诉我他喜欢沉默的回答，他的传奇故事的心情）。

I thought of all the splendid courage I knew him to possess, so made answer: 'But you say that the shadow of this island has fallen upon you; is it not so, tillicum'?

我想到他所拥有的所有非凡勇气， 于回答说：'但你说这岛的阴影已经落在你身上； 不这样吗， 蒂利库姆？

In telling me the legend of 'The Lost Talisman, ' my good tillicum, the late Chief Capilano, began the story with the almost amazing question, Had I ever heard of Napoleon Bonaparte?

在告诉我“失落的护身符”的传说时，我的好朋友，已故的卡皮拉诺酋长，以几乎令人惊讶的问题开始了这故事，我听说过拿破仑波拿巴吗？

In talking with my many good tillicums, I find this witch-woman legend is the most universally known and thoroughly believed in of all traditions they have honored me by revealing to me.

在与我的许多善良的 tillicums 交谈时，我发现这女巫传说她们通过向我揭示的所有传统中最广为人知和最彻底相信的。

'You know, ' began my young tillicum, 'that only waters unspoiled by human hands can be of any benefit. One gains no strength by swimming in any waters heated or boiled by fires that men build.

“你知道的，”我年轻的 tillicum 开始说，“只有未被人手污染的水才有用。”在人类制造的火加热或煮沸的任何水域中游泳不获得力量。

As I brooded over this strange tale of a daughter's devotion, I watched the sea and sky for something that would give me a clue to the inevitable sequel that the tillicum, like all his race, was surely withholding until the opportune moment.

当我沉思这关于女儿忠诚的奇怪故事时，我注视着大海和天空，希望能给我些关于不可避免的续集的线索，而 tillicum 就像他的所有种族样，肯定等到适当的时候才出现。
