[00:15.12]Four Chaps in the Library
[00:22.07]图书馆的四个家伙
[00:36.63]"Well, Grim Shaw," snarled 1 the second chap,
[00:41.11]whose name was Blake,
[00:42.98]and who was exactly as tiresome
[00:45.77]as Rhodes-Fotheringham,
[00:47.97]"my chums and I
[00:49.31]were in the process of recounting horrific tales of ghosts
[00:53.12]and apparitions 2.
[00:55.27]If you wish to remain in our company,
[00:57.55]you must endure this."
[01:00.07]"And not go fleeing from the room in fright!"
[01:03.29]added the third monster,
[01:04.81]a scoundrel by the name of Atkinson.
[01:08.64]I endeavored not to be afraid,
[01:11.02]which was not a simple task,

[01:15.80]were sufficient to cause a shivering sensation inside me.
[01:19.72]We were all seated,
[01:22.11]with discreet 3 distances between each,
[01:24.82]in huge Victorian armchairs
[01:27.23]facing the blazing flames of the log fire.
[01:31.02]The library itself was enormous,
[01:33.91]and must have contained thousands of books
[01:36.58]on all subjects.
[01:38.33]Including the topic of ghosts.
[01:42.58]"I remember one chap," said Rhodes-Fotheringham,
[01:47.41]a cigar of eager proportions in his ample hand,
[01:51.37]"whose name I cannot recall.
[01:53.90]He regularly encountered the ghostly figure
[01:56.52]of an old man in a pale-colored nightgown,
[02:00.74]who was prone 4 to walking up and down the stairs
[02:03.91]of the chap's home,
[02:05.83]and with his head held under his arm!"
