Verus, however, after he had come to Syria, lingered amid the debaucheries of Antioch and Daphne and busied himself with gladiatorial bouts and hunting.64 And yet, for waging the Parthian war through his legates, he was acclaimed Imperator,65 while meantime Marcus was at all hours keeping watch over the workings of the state, and, though reluctantly and sorely against his will, but nevertheless with patience, was enduring the debauchery of his brother.

Jim said he would "jis''s soon have tobacker in his coffee;" and found so much fault with it, and with the work and bother of raising the mullen, and jews-harping the rats, and petting and flattering up the snakes and spiders and things, on top of all the other work he had to do on pens, and inscriptions, and journals, and things, which made it more trouble and worry and responsibility to be a prisoner than anything he ever undertook, that Tom most lost all patience with him; and said he was just loadened down with more gaudier chances than a prisoner ever had in the world to make a name for himself, and yet he didn't know enough to appreciate them, and they was just about wasted on him.

杰姆说他宁愿在他咖啡壶里放点儿烟叶子的。随后他牢骚一大串，说又要栽毛蕊花，又要给耗子奏口拨琴，又要对蛇、蜘蛛之类献殷勤。并且作为囚徒，论麻烦、论烦恼、论责任，难上加难的，而在这些活儿以外，还得磨笔、题词、写日记、如此等等，没有料想到做囚徒须得干这么多事。这么一说，汤姆可火了，对他失去了耐性。他说，杰姆空有这么好的机会，能比世上任何一个囚徒扬名天下，却不知好歹，眼看这些好机会正在他手里给白白错过了。

When you are patient, it doesn't mean that you endure the situation, just gritting your teeth and waiting for it to be over.

It begins with innocent childhood, followed by awkward adolescence trying awkwardly to adapt itself to mature society, with its young passions and follies, its ideals and ambitions; then it reaches a manhood of intense activities, profiting from experience and learning more about society and human nature; at middle age, there is a slight easing of tension, a mellowing of character like the ripening of fruit or the mellowing of good wine, and the gradual acquiring of a more tolerant, more cynical and at the same time a kindlier view of life; then In the sunset of our life, the endocrine glands decrease their activity, and if we have a true philosophy of old age and have ordered our life pattern according to it, it is for us the age of peace and security and leisure and contentment; finally, life flickers out and one goes into eternal sleep, never to wake up again.

从纯真的童年开始，然后是尴尬的青春期，用他的激情与愚笨，理想与雄心尝试着去适应成人的社会；再之后是密集活动的成年期，从不断的尝试中得到足够的经验并对这个社会与人类的本质有了更多的了解；当人到中年的时候，我们开始慢慢放松那根绷紧的神经，就像成熟的水果与发酵的美酒一样我们的性格也慢慢发酵，变得更加有耐性同时也更加的多疑，生活在我们的眼中也更加的美好；最后，在我们生命的暮年，身体的技能限制了我们的行动，我们也具有了老年人的人生观并且依照它来安排我们的生活，对我们来说这时的生命充满平静、安全、放松与满足；最终生命终结我们进入永恒的睡眠不再醒来。
