and Codros led his forces out against them.

寇德罗斯率军迎敌
He fought brilliantly and bravely,

他作战神勇足智多谋
and drove the enemy from the field,

赶走了敌人
but in the course of the battle he himself was killed.

但在战争中他不幸战死沙场
The Athenians loved and respected him so much

雅典人民深深爱戴这位国王
that they gave him the almost unheard honor

因而给予他前所未闻的最高的殊荣
of burying him right on the spot where he fell in the field,

把他安葬在战场上他牺牲的地方
and thereafter,

从此以后
his name was always followed with glory,

他的名字总是和光荣尊敬
admiration and devotion.

还有赤诚联系在一起
Well, what kind of story is that?

好这是个什么样的故事呢
Why do you get rid of a kingdom? Why would you get rid a king?

为什么要抛弃那样的君主那样的王国呢
