Chapter 3: Odet
Zigfried left, and Odile went inside the castle.
Odet, the wizard's evil daughter, was behind a tree.
When she saw Odile talking to the Prince,she was jealous; she wanted to go to the ball, and what was more, she wanted to marry the Prince.
She didn't like Odile, because she was so beautiful and kind.
But the wizard loved her, so Odet couldn't do anything to hurt her... until now!
Odet went to the wizard's room, but he was not there.
The room looked like a museum.
There was an Egyptian statue against one wall, and large aquariums full of strange fish.
On a table stood many different colored bottles.
Odet opened one of the bottles.
Smoke came out of it.
It smelled of burning wood.
The magic owl flew into the open window,unseen by Odet, and changed back into the wizard.
"Do you like the smell?"
"Oh, Father! You scared me."
"You wouldn't be afraid if you were not in my room when I wasn't here."
"I know father, but I have something very important to tell you. It's about Odile."
The wizard opened his eyes wide.
He was a tall man, with a long, white beard and long, white hair.
He wore a big black hat and a long black robe with stars on it.
"Tell me what you know!"
"First, you must promise to do something for me."
"What is it?"
"I can't tell you now. First, I must tell you about Odile, then I will ask for something. Will you do it?"
The wizard was very much in love with Odile.
He would change his daughter into a frog because he wanted to know about Odile.
"Today, I saw Odile talking to Prince Zigfried. The Prince asked Odile to go to the royal ball tonight. He wants to marry her and free her from your evil powers. "
The wizard turned in a circle and pointed his hand at the floor.
Fire came from his fingers and hit the floor.
The whole castle shook.
"I should have destroyed the Prince today, when I saw him with Odile."
"You saw him, too?"
"Yes, at the lake. I attacked him,but I was only an owl. Odile knew this and she left him. He must have followed her here."
"Oh yes Father, and he is so handsome! You should see his face!"
"Silence!"
The wizard turned himself into a large,stone ball.
He threw himself against the walls,making the castle shake again.
Alone in her room, Odile felt the castle shaking.
She hid her head under a pillow on her bed; she hated it when the wizard got angry.
The wizard changed back into himself in his room.
"Now Father, you promised you'd do something for me."
"I never promised you anything!"
"Oh, Father. I want to go to the ball! I want to marry the prince."
The wizard angrily raised his hand again.
Then, he thought of something.
Slowly, he lowered his hand.
"You would like to go to the ball,wouldn't you?"
"Oh yes, Father!"
"And you would like to marry the prince?"
"Yes, I would." "
Then you will, and he will think that you are Odile."
"Oh Father, what a wonderful idea!"
She put her arms around him.
His body was cold as stone, and his eyes were filled with fire.

第三章：奥德
齐格弗里德走了，奥迪尔进了城堡。
奥德，巫师的邪恶女儿，在一棵树后面。
当她看到奥迪尔和王子说话时，她很嫉妒；她想去参加舞会，更重要的是，她想嫁给王子。
她不喜欢奥迪尔，因为她是如此美丽和善良。
但是巫师爱她，所以奥德不能做任何伤害她的事……直到现在!
奥德去了巫师的房间，但他不在那里。
这个房间看起来像个博物馆。
墙上有一尊埃及雕像，还有满是奇奇怪怪的鱼的大水族箱。
桌子上放着许多不同颜色的瓶子。
奥德打开了其中一个瓶子。
烟从里面冒出来。
它有木头燃烧的味道。
那只神奇的猫头鹰在奥德没有看见的情况下飞进开着的窗户，变回了巫师。
“你喜欢这种味道吗？”
“噢,爸爸!你吓到我了。”
“如果我不在的时候你不在我的房间里，你就不会害怕了。”
“我知道，爸爸，但我有非常重要的事情要告诉你。是关于奥迪尔的。”
巫师睁大了眼睛。
他个子很高，留着长长的白胡子和长长的白发。
他戴着一顶黑色的大帽子，穿着一件上面有星星的黑色长袍。
“告诉我你知道些什么！”
“首先，你必须答应为我做点什么。”
“什么事？”
“我现在不能告诉你。首先，我必须告诉你关于奥迪尔的事，然后我再提点要求。你愿意做吗？”
巫师深深地爱上了奥迪尔。
他想把他的女儿变成一只青蛙，因为他想了解奥迪勒。
“今天，我看见奥迪尔和齐格弗里德王子说话。王子邀请奥迪尔今晚去参加皇家舞会。他想娶她，把她从你的邪恶力量中解救出来。”
巫师转了一个圈，用手指着地板。
火从他的指缝里冒出来，打在地板上。
整个城堡都震动了。
“我今天看到王子和奥迪尔在一起时，真应该把他干掉的。”
“你也看见他了？”
“是的，在湖边。我攻击了他，但我只是一只猫头鹰。奥迪尔知道这一点，于是离开了他。他一定是跟着她来的。”
“哦，是的，爸爸，他是如此英俊！”你应该看看他的脸！”
“安静!”
巫师把自己变成了一个巨大的石球。
他一头撞在墙上，城堡再次摇晃起来。
奥迪尔独自一人在房间里，感到城堡在摇晃。
她把头藏在床上的枕头下面；她讨厌巫师生气的样子。
巫师回到自己的房间里变回了自己。
“爸爸，你答应过要为我做点什么。”
“我从来没有答应过你什么！”
“哦,爸爸。我想去参加舞会！我想嫁给王子。”
巫师又愤怒地举起了手。
然后，他想到了一件事。
慢慢地，他把手放下来。
“你想去参加舞会，是吗？”
“噢，是的，爸爸！”
“你愿意嫁给王子吗？”
“是的，我愿意。”
然后你会，他会认为你是奥迪尔。”
“噢，爸爸，多好的主意啊！”
她搂着他。
他的身体冷得像石头，眼睛里充满了火焰。
