Catelyn had been anointed with the seven oils and named in the rainbow of light that filled the sept of Riverrun. 凯特琳身受七种圣油祝福与加持，连命名仪式也是在浸沐於七彩虹光的奔流城圣堂里举行的。

She was of the Faith, like her father and grandfather and his father before him. 她和父祖数代一样信仰七神，
Her gods had names, and their faces were as familiar as the faces of her parents. 她信奉的神有名有姓，脸庞也如同自己双亲般熟悉。
Worship was a septon with a censer, the smell of incense 1, a seven-sided crystal alive with light, voices raised in song. 她在香炉冉冉的圣堂里祷告，燃香气味飘漫，有著光芒共生的七面水晶，和喃喃的人声吟唱。
The Tullys kept a godswood, as all the great houses did, 徒利家族虽然像其他大家贵族般拥有自己的神木林，
but it was only a place to walk or read or lie in the sun. Worship was for the sept. 但只不过是个散步阅读或在暖阳下休憩的处所，敬拜神明向来是圣堂里的事。
For her sake, Ned had built a small sept where she might sing to the seven faces of god, 奈德为她建了座小圣堂，好让她有个向七神诵唱的地方。
but the blood of the First Men still flowed in the veins 2 of the Starks, and his own gods were the old ones, 然而史塔克家族体内依旧流淌著「先民」的血液，他信奉没有名号也没有容貌的远古诸神，
the nameless, faceless gods of the greenwood they shared with the vanished children of the forest. 那些属於苍翠树林，曾经与消失的森林之子共同信仰的神。
At the center of the grove 3 an ancient weirwood brooded over a small pool where the waters were black and cold. "The heart tree," 林子中央有棵古老的鱼梁木，笼罩著一泓黑冷池水，奈德称之为「城心树」。
Ned called it. The weirwood's bark was white as bone, its leaves dark red, like a thousand bloodstained hands. 鱼梁木的树皮灰白如骨，叶色深红，有如千只染血手掌。
A face had been carved in the trunk of the great tree, its features long and melancholy 4, 树干上刻了一张人脸，容貌深长而忧郁，
the deep-cut eyes red with dried sap and strangely watchful 5. They were old, those eyes; 满是乾涸红色树汁的深陷眼凹怪异地充满警戒意味。
older than Winterfell itself. They had seen Brandon the Builder set the first stone, 那是一双古老的眼睛，比临冬城还要古老，它们曾经目睹「筑城者」布兰登安下第一块基石，
if the tales were true; they had watched the castle's granite 6 walls rise around them. 倘若传说属实，它们也见证了城堡的大理石墙在四周逐渐高筑。
It was said that the children of the forest had carved the faces in the trees during the dawn centuries 传说这些脸是森林之子
before the coming of the First Men across the narrow sea. 在「先民」渡过狭海而来之前刻上去的。
