This account of the bank of Amsterdam, however, it will appear hereafter, is in a great measure chimerical.

然而，阿姆斯特丹银行的这个账户在很大程度上是虚构的，下文将对此加以说明。

A thousand guilders in the bank of Amsterdam, for example, are of more value than a thousand guilders of Amsterdam currency.

例如，阿姆斯特丹银行的一千荷兰盾比一千荷兰盾的阿姆斯特丹货币更有价值。

In 1672, when the French king was at Utrecht, the bank of Amsterdam paid so readily, as left no doubt of the fidelity with which it had observed its engagements.

1672 年，当法国国王在乌得勒支时，阿姆斯特丹银行如此迅速地付款，毫无疑问，它遵守约定的忠诚度。

The bank of Amsterdam has, for these many years past, been the great warehouse of Europe for bullion, for which the receipts are very seldom allowed to expire, or, as they express it, to fall to the bank.

多年来，阿姆斯特丹银行一直是欧洲的金银大仓库，这些金条的收据很少允许过期，或者如他们所说，不会落入银行。
