一个风暴夜晚，我起身
沿梅奈梦幻般曲岸而行;
风很大，野兽摧动海潮，
浪涛于卡纳封之侧咆哮。
但第二天早上，我走过那路径，
梅奈之岸铺延着天堂般寂静;
风很柔，海如花一朵
太阳在卡纳封塔上打盹。

Night and Morning
One night of tempest I arose and went
Along the Menai shore on dreaming bent;
The wind was strong, and savage swung the tide,
And the waves blustered on Caernarfon side.
But on the morrow, when I passed that way,
On Menai shore the hush of heaven lay;
The wind was gentle and the sea a flower
And the sun slumbered on Caernarfon tower.
猫与海
这是个有关一只黑猫的事件
三月，在裸秃悬崖之巅
它双目期盼
那金雀花花瓣;
一个猫乖驯咕噜声的
正规等式
与大海之镜的
冰冷内部。
（微笑 译）
The Cat and the Sea
It is a matter of a black cat
On a bare cliff top in March
Whose eyes anticipate
The gorse petals;
The formal equation of
A domestic purr
With the cold interiors
Of the sea's mirror.
