When he looked up at poor Meggie, she seemed to be very high above him. 当他往上看可怜的梅吉时，她好像在他上面很高的位置。
Moni saw that it was going to be hard to reach the young goat, 莫尼知道他很难到达小山羊那里，
and still harder to climb down again with Meggie on his back. 并且要背着梅吉回来会更加困难。
But that was the only way to save the little animal. 但这是拯救小家伙的唯一办法。
So the boy started at once to climb up the cliff until he reached the tree. 男孩立刻往悬崖上爬去，直到爬到大树旁边。
Then he made his way to the bough 1 on which the frightened little animal hung. 接着他朝挂着害怕的小山羊的树枝艰难地爬去。
Grasping the trembling kid fast in both hands, he raised her to his shoulders, 他双手紧紧得抓住了颤抖的小家伙，把她举起来放在了他的肩膀上，
and with the greatest care climbed back down. 然后非常小心地爬下来。
When his feet touched firm earth again and he saw that Meggie was safe, 当他的脚再次站到坚实的大地上时，他知道梅吉安全了。
he cried, "Oh, dear God, I thank Thee a thousand times for helping 2 me to save Meggie. 他喊道：“啊，亲爱的上帝，是你帮我救了梅吉。我们千万次得感谢您。
How happy we both are!" 我们两个都很高兴！”
Then Moni sat down and stroked the kid, whose delicate limbs still trembled with fright; 然后莫尼坐下来抚摸着小家伙，她那纤弱的小腿还在吓得打哆嗦。
And when it was time to lead the flock home-ward, the goat boy took the kid in his arms, 到了该带领羊群回家的时候，牧羊男孩把那只小山羊抱在怀里，
saying tenderly, "come, poor Meggie,you are still shaking. 柔声说：“嗨，可怜的梅吉，你还在颤抖。
You can't walk home. I will carry you." 你不能走回家了，我会抱着你的。”
And so he carried the little animal the whole way down, 就这样，莫尼抱着那只小山羊一路走下来，
and the villagers who came to get their goats from Moni heard the story and were filled with surprise. 前来从莫尼这里领回自家山羊的村民们听说了这个故事都感到非常吃惊。
They had always thought that the goat boy had nothing to do all day 他们之前一直以为牧羊男孩整天无所事事，
but lie in a cool mountain pasture, singing his songs. 只会躺在山上凉爽的草地上唱着他的歌。
n.大树枝，主枝
- I rested my fishing rod against a pine bough.我把钓鱼竿靠在一棵松树的大树枝上。
- Every bough was swinging in the wind.每条树枝都在风里摇摆。
