sixpencen. sixpence a day: possibly alluding to the contemporarypension for an actor (可能指)當時一個演員所得酬金。 △Mid.4.2.21 (20): “O sweet Bully Bottom! Thushath he lost sixpence a day during his life: he couldnot have scaped sixpence a day. An the Duke had notgiven him sixpence a day for playing Pyramus,I'll behanged.”可愛的好家伙線團兒! 他這一輩子再也拿不到一天六便十的酬金了,他本來一定可以一天拿到六便士的。要是公爵看了他演的皮拉摩斯不賞他 一天六便士,我愿意被絞死。 |
