However, when I reflected on this experience, I asked myself:At that time I went away without any debate, is it for modesty and tolerance of Chinese or their self-abasement and recreance?

但当我再次回顾反省时，我扪心自问，那一刻，我没有做任何辩解就愤然离开，（这符合中国人遇事忍让的处世哲学）到底是因为中国人的谦逊与宽容呢，还是中国人的自卑与懦弱呢？

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。
