taking out his spectacles, he rubbed them with his great yellow bandana handkerchief, and putting them on very carefully, 用一条黄色的大手绢擦了擦,认真地戴好,
came out of the wigwam, and leaning stiffly over the bulwarks 1, took a good long look at Queequeg. 走到魁魁格跟前,仔细地端详起来。
How long hath he been a member? he then said, turning to me; not very long, I rather guess, young man. 他做教友多长时间了?我看不会太久吧!他这样问我。
No, said Peleg, and he hasn't been baptized right either, or it would have washed some of that devil's blue off his face. 不不不,他还受过洗呢!否则他脸上不会这么毫无血色的!
Do tell, now, cried Bildad, is this Philistine 2 a regular member of Deacon Deuteronomy's meeting? I never saw him going there, and I pass it every Lord's day. 法勒船长抢着说。 魁魁格脸上那种因为做了一天斋戒而来的黯淡成了他们下判断的把柄。 老实说吧,小伙子,他在德多罗诺米·科尔曼的教堂里当了多长时间的教友了?我每个礼拜日都去。
