这场戏：以为誓愿应验又去寻他
第 2 章 · 共 25 章 · 2'49"
萨列里向神父回忆：他当年发过誓，起初以为上帝真的应了——没几年就当上 court composer（宫廷作曲家）。他说自己 was a model of virtue（是美德的典范），kept my hands off women（从不碰女人）。可紧接着一句 Until he came（直到他来了），一切就变了。想学怎么讲人生转折、怎么自我表彰，这几句很有戏。

萨列里对着福格勒神父回忆自己的「得救」：My life changed forever（我的人生从此彻底变了），他认定 God had arranged it all（这一切都是上帝安排的），因为他当年许过誓。他以为誓愿应验了——没几年就成了 court composer（宫廷作曲家），天天陪奥地利皇帝弹二重奏。他还强调自己遵守誓言：was a model of virtue（美德的典范），kept my hands off women（从不碰女人），教学生常常 for free（白教）。可这一切在 Until he came（直到他来了）之后结束。他赶到萨尔茨堡大主教府邸，去 seek him out（找到他），心里还玩着一个小游戏：那样的才华，written on the face（会写在脸上吗）。想学怎么讲述转折、自我辩护，这些表达很到位。
