The sea breeze , as though it had the sooner blown itself out by its unusual violence , was already at an end ; it had been succeeded by light , variable airs from the south and south - east , carrying great banks of fog ; and the anchorage , under lee of skeleton island , lay still and leaden as when first we entered it 海風耗竭了淫威,很快地平靜下來,緊跟著,輕柔的海風從南面東南面飄拂而來,攜來了大團大團的霧氣。在骷髏島的下風處,鉛灰色的錨地像我們初次進來時一樣平靜。

Each pailful was poured into tall cans that stood in a large spring - waggon which had been brought upon the scene ; and when they were milked the cows trailed away . dairyman crick , who was there with the rest , his wrapper gleaming miraculously white against a leaden evening sky , suddenly looked at his heavy watch 奶牛場的克里克老板和其他的人呆在一起,在鉛灰色的暮色的映襯下,他身上的圍裙閃著白色的光,突然,他掏出他那塊沉甸甸的懷表看了看。
