Then they all rode home in one of the largest waggons , in the company of a broad tarnished moon that had risen from the ground to the eastwards , its face resembling the outworn goldleaf halo of some worm - eaten tuscan saint 收工后，他们都坐上最大的一辆马车，黯淡的圆月刚从东边地平线上升起，他们就在月亮的伴随下动身回家，月亮的脸就如同被虫蛀过的托斯卡纳圣像头上用晦暗的金叶贴成的光环一样。

Now , by way of having a resting - place during his excursions , avoiding the wretched cookery - which has been trying its best to poison me during the last four months , while you have manfully resisted its effects for as many years , - and obtaining a bed on which it is possible to slumber , monte cristo has furnished for himself a temporary abode where you first found him ; but , to prevent the possibility of the tuscan government taking a fancy to his enchanted palace , and thereby depriving him of the advantages naturally expected from so large an outlay of capital , he has wisely enough purchased the island , and taken its name 而为了在他旅行的途中有一个休息的地方，为了逃避那种毒害我们的可怕的饭菜我吃了四个月，你吃了四年，这了避免睡这种谁都无法入睡的讨厌的床铺，他在基督山安置了一个窝。然后，当他把地方安排好以后，他又怕托斯卡纳政府会把他赶走，使他白白损失那一笔安置费，所以他买下了那个岛，并袭用了小岛的名字。

Except the knowledge of blazons , that enables me to decipher them , i am very ignorant of heraldry - i , a count of a fresh creation , fabricated in tuscany by the aid of a commandery of st . stephen , and who would not have taken the trouble had i not been told that when you travel much it is necessary 我对纹章虽有点研究，能略做辨别，但对于家谱学却很不了解。我是一个新封的伯爵，这个头衔是在托斯卡纳依靠圣爱蒂埃总督的帮忙弄来的，要不是他们说这是旅行所必需的，我本来还不高兴来这一套呢。
