One afternoon he was returning from a foraging trip to the lower world, with bread and curds and a bottle of thin wine.

一天下午，他从下层世界采集食物回来，带着面包、凝乳和一瓶淡酒。

Caterpillars, black beetles, and ants roam the wilds of this lower world, making their way through miniature groves and thickets like bears in a thick wood.

毛毛虫、黑甲虫和蚂蚁在这个地下世界的荒野中漫游，它们像熊在茂密的树林中一样穿过微型树林和灌木丛。

The sun was setting, and dusk had already fallen on the lower world, but a yellow glare still lay on the lonely hillside and the crouching houses.

夕阳西下，黄昏已经降临下界，但偏僻的山坡和蜷缩的房屋上， 依旧笼罩着一层黄光。

Yet the eager pursuit of the good which every one shapes to his own fancy, proclaims man the lord of this lower world, and to be an intelligential creature, who is not to receive, but acquire happiness.

然而，对每个人按照自己的想象塑造的善的热切追求，宣告人是这个下层世界的主宰，并成为一个有智慧的生物，他不是要接受幸福，而是要获得幸福。
