摸不透

Our inner being which we call ourself, no eye nor touch of man or angel has ever pierced. It is more hidden than the caves of the gnome; the sacred adytum of the oracle; the hidden chamber of Eleusinian mystery, for to it only omniscience is permitted to enter.

我们称为自我的内心世界，不管是凡人还是天神都看不穿、摸不透，它要比神灵守护的地下室穴更隐秘，要比神殿的内室更隐秘，要比古希腊以流西斯城里的暗室更隐秘，因为唯有全能全知的上帝才能进入人的内心世界。

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.
