A pleasing anecdote is related of an elephant which was the property of the nabob of Lucknow.

还有一个人们喜闻乐见的故事，一位印度王子有一头不同寻常的象。

If you like an alliterative phrase—the knights of nowhere battling the nabobs of nullity—by all means throw it in and see how it looks on paper.

如果你喜欢某句押头韵的短语一(乌有地武无其人富豪）一不管七二十一，先把这句来，看看白纸黑字写出来是个什么样子。

The road to the palace gate was covered with the sick and dying, lying on the ground at the moment the nabob was about to pass.

当王子要经过王宫门的时候，道路上到处躺着生病和垂死的人。

Regardless of the suffering he must cause, the nabob held on his way, not caring whether his beast trod upon the poor helpless creatures or not.

王子骑着象继续赶路，毫不顾及会不会踩到人，也不管会带来多的痛苦。

I am a nabob born, and it is a great dream of mine to get rid of this disguise of poverty, though it be for a day only, and to see myself in my true character.

我是一个出身名门望族，摆脱这种贫穷的伪装，尽管只有一天时间，并且看清自己的真实性格，这是我的一个伟梦想。
