Mrs. Hussey wore a polished necklace of codfishvertebra; and Hosea Hussey had his account books bound in superior old shark-skin.

胡赛太太的项链是用鳘鱼脊骨做成的，胡赛先生的账本也是用上好的鳘鱼皮制成的，

There was a fishy flavor to the milk, too, which I could not at all account for, till one morninghappening to take a stroll along the beach among some fishermen's boats,

就连牛奶里也有股鱼味儿! 这就有点让我百思不得其解了。直到早晨散步时我看见奶牛在吃鱼骨头时，心中才豁然。

I saw Hosea's brindled cow feeding on fish remnants, and marching along the sand with eachfoot in a cod's decapitated head, looking very slip-shod, I assure yes.

那奶牛不仅在吃鱼骨头，四个脚上还套着四个鳘鱼头，像拖鞋似的。

不能带标枪!

Why not? said I; every true whaleman sleeps with his harpoon，but why not? Because it'sdangerous, says she.

为什么?每个真正的捕鲸者都是和标枪共枕同眠的!我辩解着。 这很危险!她说道。
