[J-170] Poked and Jabbed 又刺又戳
Here is one of Martial's epigrams:
“I felt a little ill and called Dr. Symmachus. Well, you came, Symmachus, but you brought 100 medical students with you. One hundred ice-cold hands poked and jabbed me. I didn't have a fever, Symmachus, when I called you. But now I do.”
[译注]
这是一则马休尔的警句： 「我感到有点不舒服，而叫了希玛卡斯医生。好啦，你来了，希玛卡斯。可是你跟着带来了一百个医科学生。一百只冰冷的手在我身上又刺又戳的。希玛卡斯呀，当我叫你来的时候，我是没有发烧的。可是，现在我发烧了。」
注：1. Martial（马休尔）是古罗马的文人，以写警句（epigrams）出名。 2. poke（以尖物刺），jab（刺、戳）。
