When we first meet Theoden, his mind is corrupted by Saruman.

希奥顿首次出场时，他的神智被萨茹曼腐蚀。

And so Theoden is spared from death at Helm's Deep, the restoration of his spirit is not yet complete.

因此希奥顿得以免死于海尔姆深谷之战，而他精神尚未全然复元，但在继续。

When we meet Eowyn, she too is trapped by fear, but unlike Theoden, it is not death that scares her.

伊奥温出场时，也正困于恐惧，但与希奥顿不同，她怕的不是死。

Theoden achieves that victory when he shows courage not only for his own people, but for those of Gondor as well.

当希奥顿展现出不限于己族也顾及刚铎人民的胆量时，他便取得了那样的胜利。

It is only after being besieged by the Uruk-Hai, at the very last moment when death is upon him and his people, that Theoden rediscovers the spirit of his ancestors… " Ride out with me."

直到乌鲁克族围城他和子民濒临灭族，这时他才重拾先人的精神“与我并辔冲锋。”
