Not until then , when i had partly recovered from my fright , did i notice that our teacher had on his handsome blue coat , his plaited ruff , and the black silk embroidered breeches , which he wore only on days of inspection or of distribution of prizes 我从惊慌中稍稍定下神来，这才注意到，我们的老师穿着他那件漂亮的绿色常礼服，领口系着折迭得很精致的领结，头上戴着那顶刺绣的黑绸小圆帽，这套装束，只有在上头派人来学校视察或学校发奖时他才穿戴的。
She saw her father s face , with its bald brow , and reverend white beard , that flowed over the old - fashioned elizabethan ruff ; her mother s , too , with the look of heedful and anxious love which it always wore in her remembrance , and which , even since her death , had so often laid the impediment of a gentle remonstrance in her daughter s pathway 她看到厂她父亲的面容：光秃秃的额头和飘洒在伊丽莎白时代老式环状皱领上的威风凛凛的白须她也看到了她母亲的面容，那种无微不至和牵肠挂肚的爱的表情，时时在她脑海中索绕，即使在母亲去世之后，仍在女儿的人生道路上经常留下温馨忆念的告诫。
Deep ruffs , painfully wrought bands , and gorgeously embroidered gloves were all deemed necessary to the official state of men assuming the reins of power ; and were readily allowed to individuals dignified by rank or wealth , even while sumptuary laws forbade these and similar extravagances to the plebeian order 高高的环状皱领核心编织的饰带和刺绣华丽的手套，都被认定是居官的人夸耀权势的必需品而且，尽管禁止奢侈的法律不准平民等级效法这一类铺张，但是地位高或财富多的人，随时都可得到韶免。
The chair puffed slowly on , slowly surging into the forget - me - nots that rose up in the drive like milk froth , beyond the hazel shadows . clifford steered the middle course , where feet passing had kept a channel through the flowers . but connie , walking behind , had watched the wheels jolt over the wood - ruff and the bugle , and squash the little yellow cups of the creeping - jenny 小车子缓缓地前进，路上棒树影遮不到的地方，蔓生着牛奶泡沫似的毋忘我花，车子打上面经过，克利，福在路中心欢呼着他的车，在花草满地中，这路中心被脚步践踏成一条小径了。
On the wall hung a row of portraits , representing the forefathers of the bellingham lineage , some with armour on their breasts , and others with stately ruffs and robes of peace . all were characterised by the sternness and severity which old portraits so invariably put on ; as if they were the ghosts , rather than the pictures , of departed worthies , and were gazing with harsh and intolerant criticism at the pursuits and enjoyments of living men 墙上悬着一排肖像，都是贝灵汉家族的先祖，有的胸前护着铠甲，有的则穿着衬有环状皱领的乎日的长袍，但个个面露威严，这是当年的肖像所必备的特征，似乎他们都是已故的风云人物的鬼魂而不是他们的画像，以苛刻掘狭的批评目光审视着活人的活动和娱乐。
