spondulics

I ain t as rich as old jim hornback , and i can t be so blame generous and good to tom , dick , and harry as what he is , and slam around money the way he does ; but i ve told him a many a time t i wouldn t trade places with him ; for , says i , a sailor s life s the life for me , and i m derned if i d live two mile out o town , where there ain t nothing ever goin on , not for all his spondulicks and as much more on top of it 不過,我對他講過不只一回了,我可不愿意跟他對調一下位置。我說,因為一個水手的生活,這便是我的生活。要是叫我住在鎮子外面兩英里路的地方,沒有什么地方好玩的,別說他那點兒臭錢都給了我,就是再加上一倍,我也不會干。
