1. A folio Dante served us as a table on which to eat merrily a centime's worth of chestnuts. 把但丁的对开本拿来当作台子使，我们快乐无边，同吃了一百个栗子。
2. As I haven't a centime in my pocket I don't quite see the point of this, until he bursts out: "For Christ's sake, remember that we're broke." 我衣袋里的确连一个生丁也没有，所以我不大明白他这样说目的何在。后来他嚷开了，这时我才明白。
3. No, it was the odd numbers which intrigued me. He used to figure it out to the last centime. If I was to pay in full I would have had to break a sou. 不，使我大惑不解的是那些余数，他算帐一直要算清最后一个生叮若要把帐全部付清，我必须得找开一个苏才行。
