And it blew up and it blew burning embers into Mutondo's nice new tent. And it went up in a sheet of flame.

爆竹在篝火中爆炸，炸飞的余烬落到穆通多的新帐篷里，火苗顿时腾空而起。

This ecstasy, this forgetfulness of living, comes to the artist, caught up and out of himself in a sheet of flame;

这种狂喜，这种忘我的状态，艺术家达到时，便着了迷要化为一团火焰；

Imagine a burning candle, and imagine moving a sheet of heavy paper slowly over the flame of the candle, you're gonna get a series of burned spots in the paper.

想象一下一根燃烧着的蜡烛，再想象一下慢慢把一张很厚的纸移到蜡烛火焰的上方，你会看到纸上有一连串烧焦了的斑点。
