There was a group of shabbily dressed men smoking and laughing in a corner, a scissors-grinder with his wheel, two guardsmen who were flirting with a nurse-girl, and several well-dressed young men who were lounging up and down with cigars in their mouths.

街头拐角有一群穿得破破烂烂、抽着烟、的人，一个带着脚踏磨轮的磨剪子的人，两个正在同保姆调情的警，以及几个衣着体面、嘴里叼着雪茄烟、吊儿郎当的年轻人。

Twice more in the darkness the bell at the great gate sounded, and the irruption was repeated, and the grindstone whirled and spluttered.

中，大门上的铃又响了两次，每次都有人群冲进来， 磨轮旋转着， 发出嘶嘶声。

Nevertheless, its charm lay chiefly in the past; for the scissor-grinder's wheel had hissed in his childish ears.

然而，它的魅力主要在于过去。因为剪刀磨轮在他幼稚的耳朵里发出嘶嘶声。
