He entered bent in two like a big bear, for he was a giant. At first he made a wry face, holding his nose, because of the acrid smell of the souse.英文原著 · 《AN ICELAND FISHERMAN》
HUSBANDMAN. Talk not of goose nor capon, give me good beef or bacon, And good bread and cheese, now at hand; With pudding, brawn, and souse, all in a farmer's house, That is living for the husbandman. SERVINGMAN. Why the clothing that we wear is delicate and rare, With our coat, lace, buckles, and band; Our shirts are white as milk, and our stockings they are silk, That is clothing for a servingman. HUSBANDMAN. But I value not a hair your delicate fine wear, Such as gold is laced upon; Give me a good grey coat, and in my purse a groat, That is clothing for the husbandman. SERVINGMAN. Kind sir!英文原著 · 《Ancient Poems》

The little man started back, but the dirty torrent caught him and soused him through. The bucket followed, struck him full on the chest, and rolled him over in the mud. After it with a rush came David. "I'll let yo' know, spyin' on me!" he yelled. "I'll--" Maggie, whose face was as white now as it had been crimson, clung to him, kxampering him. "Dinna, David, dinna!" she implored.英文原著 · 《Bob Son of Battle》
While they waited for the program they talked in low tones, a mumble of commonplaces. Bud forgot for the moment his distaste for such places, and let himself slip easily back into the old thought channels, the old habits of relaxation after a day's work was done. He laughed at the one-reel comedy that had for its climax a chase of housemaids, policemen, and outraged fruit vendors after a well-meaning but unfortunate lover. He saw the lover pulled ignominiously out of a duck pond and soused relentlessly into a watering trough, and laughed with Frank and called it some picture.英文原著 · 《Cabin Fever》
"I love to watch a star," Joe breathed softly. "So you hadn't heard how Bud's turned out to be a regular souse? Honest, didn't you know it?"英文原著 · 《Cabin Fever》
"You said it, Marie. Stacked up to me like a guy that's got just enough dough for a good big souse. He ain't hard to forget --is he, girlie?"英文原著 · 《Cabin Fever》
