Big house it was, with a lot of piny grounds around it.

那是一座大房子，周围有很多松树地。

It was far too dark to distinguish firs from other trees by the eye alone, but the peculiar dialect of sylvan language which the piny multitude used would have been enough to proclaim their class at any time.

天，单凭肉眼无法冷杉与其他树开来，但松树群使用的特殊森林方言足以在任何时候宣布它们的等级。
