I trode on an edging of turf that the crackle of the pebbly gravel might not betray me : he was standing among the beds at a yard or two distant from where i had to pass ; the moth apparently engaged him 我踩在路邊的草皮上,免得沙石路的咔嚓聲把自己給暴露。他站在離我必經之地一兩碼的花壇中間,顯然飛蛾吸引了他的注意力。 “我會順利通過, ”我暗自思忖。

Sometimes the water spread like a sheen over the pebbly bed . 有時河水泛流在圓石子的河床上,晶瑩發光。
