塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《自助论》· Self-Help · 领导

His father still insisting on his becoming a flute-player, Benvenuto continued to practise on the instrument, though he detested it. His chief pleasure was in art, which he pursued with enthusiasm. Returning to Florence, he carefully studied the designs of Leonardo da Vinci and Michael Angelo; and, still further to improve himself in gold-working, he went on foot to Rome, where he met with a variety of adventures. He returned to Florence with the reputation of being a most expert worker in the precious metals, and his skill was soon in great request. But being of an irascible temper, he was constantly getting into scrapes, and was frequently under the necessity of flying for his life. Thus he fled from Florence in the disguise of a friar, again taking refuge at Sienna, and afterwards at Rome.

白话

父亲仍坚持让他当吹笛手,切利尼虽然讨厌笛子,还是继续练习。他最大的乐趣在艺术,满怀热情地追求。回到佛罗伦萨后,他仔细研究达·芬奇和米开朗基罗的设计;为进一步提高金工技艺,他步行去罗马,一路上遇到各种奇遇。他带着贵金属加工大师的名声回到佛罗伦萨,手艺很快大受欢迎。但他脾气暴躁,不断惹麻烦,常常不得不逃命。有一次他扮成修士逃出佛罗伦萨,又到锡耶纳避难,后来去了罗马。

上下文
