外甥

D ear friend, replied the uncle, my young nephew has a snug berth, a nice bit of money in hand, and plenty of bread to break, besides he has quite as many patches as I have. And as he spoke, he slapped the patches on his trousers, but in that district small pieces of land were called patches also.

"亲爱的朋友，"舅舅回答，"我那年轻的外甥有一个温暖的店铺，手里有亮晶晶的钱，有许多面包等着招待宾客，另外他和我一样有很多农田，"(他一边说着一边拍着他的裤子，在那个地区小块农田被称做补丁)。

PS：下次问问题记得把整段都发上来。这个案子的基本案情是，叔叔或者舅舅或者伯伯答应侄子或外甥如果他在21岁之前不喝酒不抽烟不赌博，则在他21岁的时候给他5000刀。侄子或外甥很听话。结果他满21岁的时候，他叔叔的遗产执行人（他叔叔。。。已经翘掉了）拒绝执行。认为这都是为他好。他不抽烟喝酒赌博是应该的。他叔叔的利益没有受好的影响。

We have no common name for a mime of Sophron or Xenarchus and a Socratic Conversation; and we should still be without one even if the imitation in the two instances were in trimeters or elegiacs or some other kind of verse--though it is the way with people to tack on 'poet' to the name of a metre, and talk of elegiac-poets and epic-poets, thinking that they call them poets not by reason of the imitative nature of their work, but indiscriminately by reason of the metre they write in.

索夫农 、森那库斯和苏格拉底式的对话采用的模仿没有一个公共的名称；三音步诗、挽歌体或其他类型的诗的模仿也没有——人们把&诗人&这一名词和格律名称结合到一起，称之为挽歌体诗人或者史诗诗人，他们被称为诗人，似乎只是因为遵守格律写作，而非他们作品的模仿本质。
