The Lion thought it might be as well to frighten the Wizard, 那狮子想道，最好是去恐吓一下那魔术家，

so he gave a large, loud roar, which was so fierce and dreadful that Toto jumped away from him in alarm and tipped over the screen that stood in a corner. 所以就高声地吼着，那是怎样猛烈而且可怕的呛哮，吓得托托从狮子身旁跑开，撞在那安放在角落里的屏风上。
As it fell with a crash they looked that way, and the next moment all of them were filled with wonder. 屏风拍挞一声倒下来，他们全都很好奇。
For they saw, standing 1 in just the spot the screen had hidden, a little old man, with a bald head and a wrinkled face, who seemed to be as much surprised as they were. 因为他们看见站在屏风后面，是一个秃了头、皱了脸的、又矮小又丑的老头儿，那老头儿也和他们一样，非常吃惊。
The Tin Woodman, raising his axe 2, rushed toward the little man and cried out, "Who are you?" 铁皮人举起了他的斧头，向这个矮小的老头儿冲过去，并大叫道：“你是谁？”
"I am Oz, the Great and Terrible," said the little man, in a trembling voice. “我是伟大的可怕的奥芝，”那矮小的老头儿用一种颤动的声音说。
"But don't strike me--please don't--and I'll do anything you want me to." “但是请不要伤害我——我可以为你们做任何事情。”
Our friends looked at him in surprise and dismay. 他们惊异而失望地看着他。
"I thought Oz was a great Head," said Dorothy. 多萝茜说：“我想奥芝是一个大头怪兽。”
"And I thought Oz was a lovely Lady," said the Scarecrow. 稻草人说：“我想奥芝是一个可爱的美丽的贵妇人。”
"And I thought Oz was a terrible Beast," said the Tin Woodman. 铁皮人说：“我想奥芝是一只恐怖的巨兽。”
"And I thought Oz was a Ball of Fire," exclaimed the Lion. 狮子解释着说：“我想奥芝是一个燃着的火球。”
"No, you are all wrong," said the little man meekly 3. "I have been making believe." “不，你们看到的都不是我本人，”矮小的老人温和谦逊地说。“那都是假的。”
"Making believe!" cried Dorothy. "Are you not a Great Wizard?" “假的？”多萝茜喊着。“你并不是魔术师奥芝？”
"Hush 4, my dear," he said. "Don't speak so loud, or you will be overheard--and I should be ruined. I'm supposed to be a Great Wizard." “我的朋友们，静一点儿，轻一点儿，”他说，“说话声音不要那么大，不然你们的话被人偷听了去——我就完蛋了。我是假扮做一个魔术师的。”
"And aren't you?" she asked. “你真的不是伟大的奥芝吗？”她问。
"Not a bit of it, my dear; I'm just a common man." “我的亲爱的，的确不是的；我和你一样是一个普通的人。”
