〔R118〕 I begin with “e,” but I'm more than vitamin E, and I don't belong to the e-generation like ye. Still, you may think of me when you want to prolong your life perpetually. And you may say, “Come, ye lick, sir!” when actually you want to lick me yourself and you do not mean to share me with him or her. 〔译注〕 我以 “e” 开始，但是我超过维他命E，而且我不属于e世代就像你。照样的，你会想到我，当你要永远地延长你的生命时。而且你会说 「来，你舐吧，先生！」当时事实上你要自己舐我，而不打算跟他或她来分享我。
注： e-generation:
电子的 (electronic) 世代；大家都普遍在使用电子产
prolong perpetually: 永远地延长。 ye: 为 you 之古字。 〔提问〕 If I am a hypothetical (假定的) substance (物质) to prolong life, or a supposed remedy (救药) for all ailments (病痛), sought for by medieval (中世纪的) alchemists (炼丹家), what am I then? 〔谜底〕 e_____ |
