Now it was that the lucubrations of my ancient predecessor, Mr. Surveyor Pue, came into play.
现在轮到普埃测量员研究发挥作用了。
With his own ghostly voice he had exhorted me, on the sacred consideration of my filial duty and reverence towards him—who might reasonably regard himself as my official ancestor—to bring his mouldy and moth-eaten lucubrations before the public.
他用他自己幽灵般音告诫,基于对他孝顺和尊敬——他可能有理由将自己正宗祖先——神圣考虑, 把他那些发霉、被虫蛀苦行公之于众。
