   纳鲁斯跟普鲁吐斯

      Of all the small sea divinities Nereus and Proteus stood out as Peculiar sea-gods.Nereus,known as“the Old Man of the sea”,represented the pleasant aspect of ocean waters.He lived beneath the sea with his fifty lovely daughters,of whom the most famous were Amphritrite,Thetis,Galate a and Panope.It was Nereus who advised Heracles to seek Prometheus in the hero's search of the golden apples.

      在所有的小海神中,纳鲁斯跟普鲁吐斯异样独特。纳鲁斯是人们熟知的“海中的老人”。他代表了海水友善的一面。他和50个可恶的女儿一起生活在海中。她们当中最著名的有;安菲瑞垂托、塞提丝、盖拉蒂和潘诺珀。在勇敢地寻找金苹果的时候,纳鲁斯倡导赫格破斯寻找普罗米修斯。

 

 

      Proteus was Poseidon's herdsman. He was well known for two qualities:the gift of prophecy and the power to take various forms.At one time he was a lion with a curly wavy hairs;at another he appeared in the shape of a wild boar;and still another he stood a stately tree covered with rich leaves.When,after all these and many other changes,he failed to get rid of his questioner, the god offered detailed answers.

      普鲁吐斯是波塞冬的牧羊人。他有两种非凡的才干:他能预言,他还可以变成不同的动物。有时他是一头狮子,有着波浪般的卷发。有时他是一头凶猛的野猪。而有时他又是一棵枝叶旺盛、名义森严的大树。经过这些变革之后,当他无法摆脱询问者时,神就替他作出详尽的回答。
