Was this small plant for thee cut down? So was the plant of great renown, Which Mercy sends For nobler ends. Thus think, and smoke tobacco. Doth juice medicinal proceed From such a naughty foreign weed? Then what's the power Of Jesse's flower? Thus think, and smoke tobacco. The promise, like the pipe, inlays, And by the mouth of faith conveys, What virtue flows From Sharon's rose. Thus think, and smoke tobacco.英文原著 · 《Ancient Poems》
Then came Tom and Peter, with the second letter from the council, about the captives. Though they were Indians, I got them by the hand, and burst out into tears. My heart was so full that I could not speak to them; but recovering myself, I asked them how my husband did, and all my friends and acquaintance? They said, "They are all very well but melancholy." They brought me two biscuits, and a pound of tobacco. The tobacco I quickly gave away. When it was all gone, one asked me to give him a pipe of tobacco. I told him it was all gone. Then began he to rant and threaten.英文原著 · 《Captivity and Restoration》
Smith was no friend to tobacco, and although he favored the production to a certain limit as a means of profit, it is interesting to note his true prophecy that it would ultimately be a demoralizing product. He often proposes the restriction of its cultivation, and speaks with contempt of "our men rooting in the ground about tobacco like swine." The colony would have been much better off "had they not so much doated on their tobacco, on whose furnish foundation there is small stability."英文原著 · 《The Complete Writings-3》

In the darkness she could not make him out. "What name?" she asked sharply. "What name belong you?"
"Me Aroa," he said. She remembered him as one of the two sick boys she had nursed at the hospital. The other one had died. "Me take 'm plenty fella medicine too much," Aroa was saying. "Well, and you all right now," she answered. "Me want 'm tobacco, plenty fella tobacco; me want 'm calico; me want 'm porpoise teeth; me want 'm one fella belt."
She looked at him humorously, expecting to see a smile, or at least a grin, on his face.英文原著 · 《Adventure》
For though I had formerly used tobacco, yet I had left it ever since I was first taken. It seems to be a bait the devil lays to make men lose their precious time. I remember with shame how formerly, when I had taken two or three pipes, I was presently ready for another, such a bewitching thing it is. But I thank God, He has now given me power over it; surely there are many who may be better employed than to lie sucking a stinking tobacco-pipe.英文原著 · 《Captivity and Restoration》
You know, just because you cleaned the tobacco out of your teeth don't mean it's your wedding day, pardon the expression.美剧 · 《Bojack Horseman》
