三个火枪手
[法]亚历山大・大仲马
达达尼昂为了成为一名国王的火枪手去了巴黎，在那里他遇到了波尔多斯，阿多斯和阿拉米斯。路易斯国王去英国，随身携带一件给英国国王的礼物。
达达尼昂听说国王的敌人，红衣主教黎塞留，计划偷走这件礼物。达达尼昂和火枪手们试图到英国去帮助路易斯国王，但红衣主教的卫兵拦击他们。他们中只一个人到达了英国。
[译文]
达达尼昂想成为一名国王的火枪手。“到巴黎去，”他父亲说，“把这封信交给特雷威先生。他是我的朋友，他能帮助你。”
达达尼昂去见特雷威尔先生。
在房间里有三个火枪手。
“这是波尔多斯，阿尔多斯和阿拉米斯，”特雷威尔先生说，“他们都是很好的剑手。”
在达尼昂和三个火枪手一起去吃饭。
红衣主教黎塞留的卫兵在小餐馆里。
红衣主教黎塞不是国王的朋友！火枪手和卫兵是仇敌。
“上！”阿多斯大喊。
达达尼昂和三个火枪手同卫兵打起来。剑光闪闪！人们跳上桌子，在楼梯上跑上跑下。
“停下来！停下来！”小餐馆老板喊道。
国王的火枪手非常开心！他们胜利了！
“老板，给我们的新朋友来杯葡萄酒，”阿拉米斯说。
“好吧，”餐馆老板说，“你们得给我买些新家具。”
达达尼昂住在波拿希厄先生一栋巴黎的房子里。
它是国王宫殿旁的一栋小房子。
波拿希厄太太是皇宫里的裁缝。
一天，她对达达昆昂说道：
“路易斯国王在伦敦，”波拿希厄太太说，“他给英国国王带了一件美丽的斗篷，红衣主教想把斗篷送给罗马教皇。”
“斗篷放在一个盒子里，”波拿希厄太太接着说，红衣主教的卫兵将调换盒子把斗篷带到罗马。英国国王会非常愤怒。
达达尼昂告诉了特雷威尔先生。“你必须去伦敦，”他说，“阿多斯，波尔多斯和阿拉米斯可以和你一起去。小心红衣主教的卫兵。”
达达尼昂和三个火枪手飞马奔向伦敦。他们在恰迪利停下来吃早饭。红衣主教的卫兵在饭馆里。
“我来对付卫兵，”波尔多斯喊道。
阿拉米斯，阿多斯和达达尼昂继续赶路。
十个人在树林里伏击了火枪手们。阿拉米斯受伤不能再骑马了。
“把我留在这儿，”他说，“你们必须到国王那儿去。”
达达尼昂和阿多斯到达加拉斯，来到码头。
“哦，不，”达达尼昂说，“红衣主教的卫兵就在船旁边！”
阿多斯挥剑刺向卫兵并向达达尼昂大喊，“跳上船，我留在这儿。”
达达尼昂把红衣主教的计划告诉国王。
路易斯国王非常气愤。
“陛下，我有个主意，”达达尼昂说，“今天夜里把这个盒子放在您卧室的椅子上。”
当晚，达达尼昂躲在国王的床下。他看见两个人拿着一个盒子。他们进了国王的卧室并调换了盒子。
“哈，哈，哈――”达达尼昂笑了。他高兴极了。
当英国国王打开盒子，发现里面是一件美丽的斗篷。他非常兴奋。
罗马教皇对红衣主教送的礼物并不满意。在他的盒子里是一条短裤！
