這個也許有參考價值

從這首詩似乎可以看出詩人是把flask和wine聯係在一起的。 （直譯：酒的好壞不取決於盛置的容器。）

A Toad, can die of Light –

 

A Toad, can die of Light –
Death is the Common Right
Of Toads and Men –
Of Earl and Midge
The privilege –
Why swagger, then?
The Gnat's supremacy is large as Thine –


Life – is a different Thing –
So measure Wine –
Naked of Flask – Naked of Cask –
Bare Rhine –
Which Ruby’s mine?

• 這首詩真好。值得一譯。不過這也是寫酒，而不是酒精。life-is a different Thing-,寫的真棒。典型的狄金森。 -立- ♀ (0 bytes) () 05/26/2021 postreply 19:24:59
