Q168

Reasonable grief

On his deathbed poor Lubin lies；His spouse is in despair；With frequent sobs and mutual cries；They both express their care．“A different cause，”says Parson Sly，“The same effect may give：Poor Lubin fears that he may die ；His wife，that he may live”

合理的哀伤
可怜的鲁宾躺在他的病床里；他的妻子陷入绝望；频频啜泣，相对哭啼，他们都表达着忧伤。“不同原因，”滑头牧师说，“可产生同样结果：可怜的鲁宾怕他会死；他老婆，怕他会活。”
