仪式上

The purpose of the ritual is to be spiritually cleansed of sin.

这个仪式的目的是在精神上洗涤罪恶。

Forthwith from every Squadron and each Band The Heads and Leaders thither hast where stood Thir great Commander; Godlike shapes and forms Excelling human, Princely Dignities, And Powers that earst in Heaven sat on Thrones; [ 360 ] Though of thir Names in heav'nly Records now Be no memorial blotted out and ras'd By thir Rebellion, from the Books of Life. Nor had they yet among the Sons of Eve Got them new Names, till wandring ore the Earth, [ 365 ] Through Gods high sufferance for the tryal of man, By falsities and lyes the greatest part Of Mankind they corrupted to forsake God thir Creator, and th' invisible Glory of him that made them, to transform [ 370 ] Oft to the Image of a Brute, adorn'd With gay Religions full of Pomp and Gold, And Devils to adore for Deities: Then were they known to men by various Names, And various Idols through the Heathen World.

各队的队长，各班的班长，都匆匆地奔向他们的大司令站立的地方；一个个雄姿英发，形貌非凡人能比，有王者的威严，都是天上有座位的诸掌权者；虽然由于叛逆，他们的名号已从生命册上被删除了，在天上群生的记忆中，如今已渐渐被淡忘，在夏娃的子孙中也没有得到过新的名号，一直到后来，在天神的允许下，得以游历人间来试探世人，用各种的诡计、谎言去腐蚀他们，使他们背叛天神，他们的创造者，并且把创造主无形的光彩，转化做兽类的形像，用浮华的装饰，打扮得金碧辉煌，用淫乐的仪式，把魔鬼尊为神明。

Within there are Jews from Jerusalem who are tearing each other in pieces over their foolish ceremonies, and barbarians who drink and drink and spill their wine on the pavement, and Greeks from Smyrna with painted eyes and painted cheeks, and frizzed hair curled in columns, and Egyptians silent and subtle, with long nails of jade and russet cloaks, and Romans brutal and coarse, with their uncouth jargon. Ah! how I loathe the Romans! They are rough and common, and they give themselves the airs of noble lords.

在筵席上，从耶路撒冷来的那些犹太人，总是为他们那些无聊的仪式争争吵吵，恨不得把彼此撕成碎片；有些野蛮人老是没完没了地喝酒，还把酒洒得满地；从士抹拿来的希腊人画了眼睛，涂了面孔，头发烫成一串串圆筒；阴险沉默的埃及人戴着玉石的长指甲，穿着棕红色的袍子；粗鲁野蛮的罗马人满口奇怪的土话，啊，我多讨厌那些罗马人，又粗野，又庸俗，却摆出一副贵族老爷的神气。

This growing soft power of China was strengthened by the 2008 Olympics extravaganza, and the Shanghai Expo next year will similarly dazzle. The 60th anniversary celebration in Beijing on Oct. 1 will impress, if not frighten, the world with an arresting display of military hardware and goose-stepping soldiers.

中国的软实力在08年的奥运盛事上得以加强和提高，2010年的上海世博会也会同样地令人惊叹。2009年10月1日，中国将举行盛大的阅兵仪式，不出意外的话全世界的目光都将聚焦于天安门广场，看到最新式的武器和迈着正步昂首走过的士兵。

As a result of a simple action, Western and Eastern religions are provocatively melded together, thereby shedding light on the fact that very different rituals, ceremonial procedures and iconographies fundamentally are grounded on similar, if not the same, human desires.

也说明了一个事实：不同的仪式，不同的祭祀过程，不同的肖像，基本上均建立在相似的、尽管不尽相同的欲望上。

Fitness competitions such as climbing, rappelling, obstacle course, and military drill and ceremony provide unique physical and mental challenges experienced only by a St.

身体素质比赛，如爬山、绳索下山、障碍超越课程、军事训练及军事仪式纪念活动让学生们在身体和精神上都接受只有在St。

In one work, she reclines on a rock, hair and body covered with crystals, and appearing like a ceremonial priestess, or a sacrificial offering, candied and displayed in the most appetizing way for a deity with a serious sweet tooth.

其中一幅是她斜倚在一块岩石上，头发和身体都被糖所覆盖着，像一个举行仪式的神职人员，又像一个令人垂涎欲滴的祭祀品，全身裹满糖，正等待着献给长着甜蜜的牙齿的女神。

But Mr Prendergast cannot conceal his scorn for what, he considers, has become "an altogether shoddier affair, progressively mummified into formal ritual orchestrated by assorted dignitaries" and "media kitsch".

但是Prendergast无法掩饰自己的轻蔑，他认为该节日已经成为一项虚情假意的活动，并日渐萎缩成由任一小撮高官和媒体的庸俗报道所主导的形式上的仪式。

Mystical rites are prescribed by which, slowly, the sense objects become spiritualized and sense attraction is transformed into a love of God.

它指定了神秘仪式，慢慢地，物质感官会变得灵性，感官会逐渐转变到对神之爱的吸引上。

At the Opening Ceremony, more than 10,500 athletes marched together, representing 204 republics, theocracies, city-states, protectorates and even a certain island that competes under the name of Chinese Taipei.

在开幕式上，超过10500名运动员参加了入场仪式，代表了204个共和国，神权国家，城邦，保护国，甚至还有一个小岛以&中华台北&的名义参赛。

Plunder melds and run with this jewel!

掠夺melds和运行与此宝石！

My dream is to be a crazy growing tree and extend at the edge between the city and the forest.

此刻，也许正是在通往天国的路上，我体验着这白色的晕旋。
