查理三世国王在正在进行的癌症治疗期间错过了皇家濯足节仪式

London, March 28, 2024 - Queen Camilla, the Queen Consort, graciously attended the Royal Maundy Service at Worcester Cathedral today on behalf of King Charles III, who is currently undergoing cancer treatment. The King, 75, stepped back from public-facing duties following the revelation of his diagnosis on February 5th.

伦敦，2024 年 3 月 28 日 - 今天，卡米拉王后代表目前正在接受癌症治疗的国王查理三世，慷慨地出席了在伍斯特大教堂举行的皇家濯足节仪式。 75 岁的国王在 2 月 5 日确诊后退出了面向公众的职务。

In his absence, Queen Camilla distributed "Maundy Money," symbolic gifts of silver and commemorative coins, to 75 men and 75 women. The number of recipients corresponded to the King's age, a long-standing tradition within the Royal Maundy Service.

在他缺席期间，卡米拉女王向 75 名男性和 75 名女性分发了象征性的银币和纪念币礼物“濯足钱”。获奖者的数量与国王的年龄相对应，这是皇家濯足院的长期传统。

The Queen's presence at the service marked a historic moment as she became the first consort to lead the ancient tradition, which dates back to the 7th century. In a recorded audio message played at the service, King Charles expressed his profound regret for not being able to attend in person.

女王出席仪式标志着一个历史性的时刻，因为她成为第一位领导这一古老传统的王后，这一传统可以追溯到七世纪。在仪式上播放的录音音频中，查尔斯国王对未能亲自出席表示深切遗憾。

"Ladies and Gentlemen, it is, for me, a great sadness that I cannot be with you all today," the monarch said. "The Maundy Service has a very special place in my heart... As we have just heard, in doing so [washing his disciples' feet], he deliberately gave to them and to us all an example of how we should serve and care for each other."

女王说：“女士们，先生们，对我来说，今天不能和大家在一起是一种巨大的悲伤。” “濯足礼拜在我心中占有非常特殊的地位......正如我们刚才听到的那样，在这样做[为弟子们洗脚]时，他故意给他们和我们所有人树立了一个榜样，告诉我们应该如何服务和关怀对于彼此。”

Despite his absence, King Charles has continued to conduct state business and official paperwork remotely. However, upon medical advice, he has limited his in-person engagements to reduce the number of interactions during his treatment.

尽管缺席，查尔斯国王仍继续远程处理国家事务和官方文书工作。然而，根据医疗建议，他限制了自己的面对面活动，以减少治疗期间的互动次数。

Notably, both King Charles and his daughter-in-law, Catherine, Princess of Wales, are currently undergoing cancer treatment. The Princess confirmed her diagnosis in a video message released on March 24th.

值得注意的是，查尔斯国王和他的儿媳威尔士王妃凯瑟琳目前正在接受癌症治疗。公主在 3 月 24 日发布的视频消息中证实了她的诊断。

While the King was unable to attend the Royal Maundy Service, he is expected to attend the traditional Easter Mattins Service at St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle this Sunday. The event will be smaller in scale than usual, adhering to medical recommendations to minimize the King's exposure to others.

虽然国王无法参加皇家濯足礼拜，但预计他将于本周日参加温莎城堡圣乔治教堂举行的传统复活节晨祷。此次活动的规模将比平时小，并遵循医学建议，以尽量减少国王与他人的接触。

Buckingham Palace has emphasized that King Charles remains in good spirits and is determined to resume his full public duties as soon as possible. His doctors have reassured him that his treatment is progressing well.

白金汉宫强调，查尔斯国王精神状态良好，并决心尽快恢复全部公共职责。他的医生向他保证，他的治疗进展顺利。

The Royal Maundy Service is a centuries-old tradition that symbolizes the monarch's role as a servant of the people. The gifts of money represent the alms given to the poor by early Christian rulers on Maundy Thursday, the day before Good Friday.

皇家濯足礼是一个有着数百年历史的传统，象征着君主作为人民公仆的角色。这些金钱礼物代表早期基督教统治者在濯足节（耶稣受难日的前一天）向穷人施舍的礼物。
