Now all you ramblers in mourning go, For the prince of ramblers is lying low, And all you maidens that love the game, Put on your mourning veils again.英文原著 · 《A Book of Scoundrels》
He remained indifferent, tracing a pattern with his finger on the dusty surface of a little rustic table. Fleur's future! 'I want fair sailing for her,' he thought. 'Nothing else matters at my time of life.' A lonely business--life! What you had you never could keep to yourself! As you warned one off, you let another in. One could make sure of nothing! He reached up and pulled a red rambler rose from a cluster which blocked the window.英文原著 · 《Awakening & To Let》
Would he ever be able to live down here, not seeing her? And he closed up utterly, going early to bed. It would not make him healthy, wealthy, and wise, but it closeted him with memory of Fleur in her fancy frock. He heard Val's arrival--the Ford discharging cargo, then the stillness of the summer night stole back--with only the bleating of very distant sheep, and a night-Jar's harsh purring. He leaned far out. Cold moon--warm air--the Downs like silver! Small wings, a stream bubbling, the rambler roses! God--how empty all of it without her!英文原著 · 《Awakening & To Let》
What sound was that? That piano thing! A dark tune, with a thrum and a throb! She had set it going--what comfort could she get from that?

I'm taking a squint along this coast just to get an idea of the countries where the rubber and red pepper and revolutions come from. I had no idea there was so much scenery down here. Why, Central Park ain't in it with this neck of the woods.英文原著 · 《Cabbages and Kings》
"Thanks," said the yachtsman, "but I wouldn't put you the trouble. I'd like to meet the guys you speak of, but I won't be here long enough to do much knocking around. That cool gent on the beach spoke of a doctor; can you tell me where to find him? The ~Rambler~ ain't quite as steady on her feet as a Broadway hotel; and a fellow gets a touch of seasickness now and then. Thought I'd strike the croaker for a handful of the little sugar pills, in case I need 'em."英文原著 · 《Cabbages and Kings》
I put one through the window of my old man's Rambler, and he thought my baby brother did it.美剧 · 《Modern Family》
