Real-world Examples

But I own you may be right about the books, for there are many sorts of intemperance, and a library is as irresistible to me as a barroom to a toper.

しかし、あなたが本について正しいかもしれないと思います。なぜなら、無節操には多くの種類があり、図書館は酒場が酔っ払いにとって抗しがたいのと同様に、私にとっても抗しがたいからです。

The room was divided into compartments in the approved manner, between which were screens of ground glass in mahogany framing, to prevent topers in one compartment being put to the blush by the recognitions of those in the next.

その部屋は、認可された方法で区画に分けられ、各区画の間にはマホガニーのフレームに入ったすりガラスのスクリーンがあり、ある区画の酔っ払いが隣の区画の人々の認識によって赤面するのを防ぎました。
