All this Labour I was at the Expence of, purely from my Apprehensions on the Account of the Print of a Man's Foot which I had seen; for as yet I never saw any human Creature come near the Island, and I had now liv'd two Years under these Uneasinesses, which indeed made my Life much less comfortable than it was before; as may well be imagin'd by any who know what it is to live in the constant Snare of the Fear of Man; and this I must observe with Grief too, that the Discomposure of my Mind had too great Impressions also upon the religious Part of my Thoughts, for the Dread and Terror of falling into the Hands of Savages and Canibals, lay so upon my Spirits, that I seldom found my self in a due Temper for Application to my Maker, at least not with the sedate Calmness and Resignation of Soul which I was wont to do; I rather pray'd to God as under great Affliction and Pressure of Mind, surrounded with Danger, and in Expectation every Night of being murther'd and devour'd before Morning; and I must testify from my Experience, that a Temper of Peace, Thankfulness, Love and Affection, is much more the proper Frame for Prayer than that of Terror and Discomposure; and that under the Dread of Mischief impending, a Man is no more fit for a comforting Performance of the Duty of praying to God, than he is for Repentance on a sick Bed: For these Discomposures affect the Mind as the others do the Body; and the Discomposure of the Mind must necessarily be as great a Disability as that of the Body, and much greater, Praying to God being properly an Act Of the Mind, not of the Body.

现在，再接着说说我接下去做的事。我把一部分家畜安置妥当后，便走遍全岛，想再找一片这样深幽的地方，建立一个同样的小圈地养羊。我一直往岛的西部走，到了一个我从前从未涉足的地方。我往海里一看，仿佛看到极远处有一只船。我曾从破船上一个水手的箱子里找到了一两只望远镜，可惜没有带在身边。那船影太远，我也说不准到底是否是船。

Beginning with the triumph of Sammael over Michael at the expected event, it tells how Moses had entered rather to be changed into a beast or a bird than to die; how Gabriel and Michael had successively refused to bring the soul of Moses; how Moses, knowing that Sammael was coming for the purpose, had armed himself with the Ineffable Name; how Moses had in boastfulness recounted to Sammael all his achievements, real legendary; and how at last Moses had pursued the Enemy with the Ineffable Name, and in his anger taken off one of his horns of glory and blinded Satan in one eye.

从胜利Sammael超过迈克尔在预期的事件，它讲述摩西已进入而改变成一个野兽或鸟类，而不是死亡；如何加布里埃尔和迈克尔曾先后拒绝把摩西的灵魂；如何摩西，明知Sammael是未来的目的，武装了自己的无法形容的名称；如何摩西在boastfulness回忆到Sammael他的所有成就，真正的传奇；以及如何在去年摩西推行了敌人的无法形容的名称，并在他的愤怒起飞他的一个角的光荣和失明撒旦的一只眼睛。

Result After addition of wood vinegar, the fermentation temperature of sawdust was obviously increased, and the highest temperature reached 67.0℃,being 3.5℃ higher than that of CK, and the days when fermentation temperature was above 55℃ reached 57 d, being 40 d more than that of CK. After addition of wood vinegars, the bulk density, water-holding voidage and total voidage of sawdust before and after maturity were all higher than that of CK, pH value and EC value were all lower than that of CK, and the proportion of sawdust whose particle size was smaller than 0.5 mm was higher than that of CK, and that of sawdust whose particle size was 0.5-1.0 mm and bigger than 1.0 mm were lower than that of CK.

Critics worry about why people would rather see a terrible film than a great play, why they'd rather read a trashy magazine than a book, and why the most god-awful dance music sells more than Steve Reich .

I'd like to lower my head thinking of problems than look around to find beauties in frond of a lift. I'd like to fill my ears with earphone and listen to music rather than envy those sweet pairs passing by. I'd like to stay in library and dedicate myself into pabulum rather than talk about others' love story with friends in dorm.

我宁愿站在电梯前低头思考着自己的问题，而不是东张西望的去寻找美女；我宁愿将耳机塞进自己的耳朵欣赏音乐，而不是去羡慕路过的幸福情侣；我宁愿呆在图书馆一个下午去专心于精神食粮，而不是呆在宿舍和朋友们谈论别人的爱情故事。

And yet you are sure, as I am sure, that were the world confined to these hard-headed, hard-hearted, and hard-fisted methods exclusively, were there no one prompt to help a brother first, and find out afterwards whether he were worthy; no one willing to drown his private wrongs in pity for the wronger's person; no one ready to be duped many a time rather than live always on suspicion; no one glad to treat individuals passionately and impulsively rather than by general rules of prudence; the world would be an infinitely worse place than it is now to live in.

可是你也确信，如同我也确信，如果世界只剩下精明、冷酷而且吝啬的话，将没有人会急著对兄弟伸出援手，而不管是否值得为他们这麼做；也不会有人怜悯犯错的人而愿意抿除私怨；大家会只愿活在对人的猜忌中，而不会有人愿意屡屡受骗；也将不会有人充满热情对待别人而不先计算利害得失。这样的世界，一定会比现在坏上无数倍而不堪人居。

How much better to be a king displaying his valor, or a handy tool in a house, the joy of its owner, than these false gods; or the door of a house, that keeps safe those who are within, rather than these false gods; or a wooden post in a palace, rather than these false gods!

Through the analysis of specific historical facts, we can obviously find that the incident in 1327 is just a traditional coup d'etat rather than "constitutional revolution" in the modern sense. The impeachment case in 1376 was sprung from conflicts among the noble groups. The impeachment procedure was not standardized, and the outcome lack of effective protection and the constitutional impact was very limited. The incident in 1399 was just Henry Bolingbroke usurp the throne by force, taking advantage of Richard II deserted circumstance, which had nothing to do with the pursuit democratic constitution or against the autocratic rule. It is still a dynasty change in the traditional sense, rather than the so-called "Lancaster Constitutional Revolution".

当然，通过具体史实的分析，我们不难发现，1327年事件只是一场传统意义上的宫廷政变，而不是近代意义上的"宪政革命"。1376年的弹劾案源于贵族之间的派别矛盾，弹劾程序并不规范，弹劾成果缺乏保障，弹劾的宪政影响也相当有限。1399年事件则是亨利·博林布罗克利用理查德二世众叛亲离之机，实行武力篡位的结果，与反对专制统治追求民主宪政无关；这仍然属于传统意义上的改朝换代，并非所谓的"兰开斯特宪政革命"。
