????文中“/”是我根據(jù)稿件BV1NX4y1V7rR的朗讀來進(jìn)行劃分的停頓號，當(dāng)然也有基于自己的朗讀習(xí)慣；文中的注釋是我自己個人的理解，不一定是對的，若有錯誤歡迎指出。

????They perfect （v.使…完美，完善）nature, and are/ perfected by experience: for natural abilities /are like natural plants, that need/ pruning（prune/pru:n/ v.刪除，刪節(jié)；修剪〔樹枝〕；n.梅干，（洋）李脯）/ by study; and studies themselves/ do give forth（ad.向外，往外；往前） directions/ too much/ at large, except that/ they/ be bounded（a.受（某事物）約束） in/ by experience. 經(jīng)驗與學(xué)習(xí)

????Crafty（a.詭計多端的，狡猾） men/ contemn（v. 蔑視；侮辱）/ studies, simple men /admire them, and wise men/ use them;for they/ teach not/ their own use; but that/ is a wisdom/ without them, and above them, won /by observation.

????Read not/ to contradict（v.反駁，駁斥）/ and confute（v.駁倒，完全否定）; nor/ to believe/ and take for granted; nor/ to find talk/ and discourse; but to weigh/ and consider.

????Some books/ are to be tasted, others/ to be swallowed, and some /few/ to be chewed /and digested; that is, some books/ are to be read/ only in parts; others/ to be read, but not /curiously; and some few/ to be read wholly, and with/ diligence（a.勤奮的，勤勉的）/ and attention. Some books/ also may be read/ by deputy（請人代表）, and extracts（n.節(jié)錄；選段） /made of them/?by others; but/ that would be/ only in the less important arguments, and the meaner/ sort of books; else distilled（adj. 由蒸餾得來的） books/ are,like common distilled waters, flashy（a.俗艷的;浮華的;招搖的；） things.

????Reading/ maketh a full man; conference/ a ready man; and writing/ an exact man. And therefore, if a man/ write little, he had/ need have/ a great memory; if he confer（v.商談;商議;交換意見；） little, he had/ need have/ a present wit（n.頭腦；智慧；）; and if he read little, he had/ need have/ much cunning（a.狡猾的，狡詐的 ）, to seem/ to know/ that he doth（does的一種形式） not.

????Histories/ make men wise; poets/ witty（a.說話風(fēng)趣的；妙趣橫生的）; the mathematics /subtile（adj. [古]微妙的；狡猾的；敏銳的；隱約的）; natural philosophy/ deep; moral/ grave; logic /and rhetoric（n.修辭;修辭學(xué)；） able to contend（v. 處理;對付;解決；聲稱;爭辯;主張；競爭;爭奪；）. Abeunt studia in morse.

????Nay /there is no stand/ or impediment （n.〔生理問題導(dǎo)致的〕言語[聽覺，行動]障礙）/in the wit, but may be wrought（work在舊時的過去式和過去分詞） out/ by fit studies: like as diseases/ of the body/ may have appropriate exercises. Bowling is good for the stone/ and reins（n. 腎臟；腰部；感情；肺腑）; shooting/ for the lungs /and breast; gentle walking/ for the stomach; riding/ for the head; and the like. So/ if a man's wit/ be wandering（徘徊，閑逛；）, let him study the mathematics; for/ in demonstrations, if his wit /be called away/ never so little, he must begin again. If his wit/ be not apt/ to distinguish/ or find differences, let him study/?the schoolmen（n. 學(xué)校教師；經(jīng)院哲學(xué)家；教授? 經(jīng)院哲學(xué) Scholasticism）; for they/ are cymini sectores（句中“cymini sectores”來自拉丁語，英文釋義是“dividers of cumin seeds，or hair-splitters”，從? 這樣的解釋中可以體現(xiàn)出經(jīng)院哲學(xué)家們工作的精細(xì)程度。來自 <https://www.fx361.com/page/2017/1220/2589702.shtml> ）. If he/ be not apt/ to beat over matters, and/ to call up（ (陸、海、空軍)征召…入伍；；選中,挑選(…參加運(yùn)動隊)；） one thing/ to/ prove and illustrate/ another, let him study the lawyers' cases. So every defect（缺點(diǎn)，缺陷，毛?。?/span> of the mind/ may have/ a special receipt.
