It is moreover declared in his pyramidical silence. 而且是表现在它那种莫测高深的缄默上。 And this reminds me that had the great Sperm Whale been known to the young Orient World, he would have been deified by their child-magian thoug
Chapter 80 The Nut 第八十章 脑袋 If the Sperm Whale be physiognomically a Sphinx, to the phrenologist his brain seems that geometrical circle which it is impossible to square. 如果说,从相术上说来,抹香鲸是只狮身男头的巨像的
