As he spoke there was the sharp sound of horses' hoofs and grating wheels against the curb, followed by a sharp pull at the bell.

就在他说话的时候，响起了一阵清脆的马蹄声和马摩擦路边镶边石的轧轧声，接有人猛烈地拉门铃。

With a faint hum and rattle the moving racks crawled imperceptibly through the weeks and the recapitulated aeons to where, in the Decanting Room, the newly-unbottled babes uttered their first yell of horror and amazement.

架带轻微的嗡嗡声和轧轧声，带重新获得的永恒，一礼拜一礼拜难以觉察地移动。直到那一天，新换的胎儿在换室发出了第一声害怕而吃惊的尖叫。
