But the only thing to be considered here is this--what kind of oil is used at coronations?
但是,这里得加考虑的一件事情是...加冕时用的是哪一种油?
Certainly it cannot be olive oil, nor macassar oil, nor castor oil, nor bear's oil, nor train oil, nor cod-liver oil.
当然不能用橄榄油,植物性的发油,蓖麻油,也不能用熊油,更不能用普通鲸油和鳘鱼肝油喽。
What then can it possibly be, but the sperm oil in its unmanufactured, unpolluted state, the sweetest of all oils?
那么,除了用一切油类中最为超特,尚未经过提炼,未被弄脏的那种抹香鲸油以外,还能用什么油呢?
Think of that, ye loyal Britons! we whalemen supply your kings and queens with coronation stuff!
请想想看,你们这些忠诚的不列颠人呵!我们这些捕鲸者可供给你们的国王和女王以加冕用的油料呢!
