农舍

And Molly was laughing because Rogers and Maggot O'Reilly were mimicking a cock as we passed a farmhouse and Marcus Tertius Moses, the tea merchant, drove past us in a gig with his daughter, Dancer Moses was her name, and the poodle in her lap bridled up and you asked me if I ever heard or read or knew or came across...

The most interesting dwellings in this country, as the painter knows, are the most unpretending, humble log huts and cottages of the poor commonly; it is the life of the inhabitants whose shells they are, and not any peculiarity in their surfaces merely, which makes them picturesque; and equally interesting will be the citizen's suburban box, when his life shall be as simple and as agreeable to the imagination, and there is as little straining after effect in the style of his dwelling.

在我们这国土上，画家们都知道，最有趣味的住宅一般是穷困的平民们的那些毫无虚饰的、卑微的木屋和农舍；使房屋显得别致的，不是仅仅在外表上有的哪种特性，而是外壳似的房屋里面的居民生活；同样有趣味的，要算市民们那些郊外的箱形的木屋，他们的生活将是简单的，恰如想象的一样，他们的住宅就没有一点叫人伤脑筋的风格。
