On their decks, reddened with blood, the murderers of St. Bartholomew and of the Sicilian Vespers, with the fires of Smithfield, 甲板被鲜血染红了,圣巴尔托洛繆和西西里晚祷大屠杀的刽子手手上拎着史密斯菲尔德火枪,

with shivered masts and ragged 5 sails — exist only as unmanageable wrecks 6, weltering on the uncertain waves, 卷起的船桅和破布一般的船帆,仅剩难以控制的破坏,在吉凶难测的波浪上颠簸摇晃。
whose temporary lull 7 of peace is now their only safety. 暂时的这段平静现在成了他们唯一的凭靠。
