Scientists researched the stratum underneath the streamlet.

科学家研究小溪底下的地层。

The stillness of things was disturbed by a bird coming to the streamlet to drink.

一只鸟来到小溪喝水， 打破了万物的宁静。

In the lower ground, a streamlet ran among the trees, and, being dammed with dead leaves and clay of its own carrying, spread out every here and there, and lay in stagnant pools.

在地势较低的地方，一条小溪在树林间流过，被枯叶和自己携带的泥土拦住了，到处散开，变成死水潭。

From the front door an irregular series of rough and misshapen steps, cut in the solid rock, led down to the edge of the streamlet, which, at their extremity, was hollowed into a basin through which the water trickled.

从前门开始，在坚硬的岩石上开凿出一系列不规则的粗糙和畸形的台阶，通向小溪的边缘，小溪的尽头被挖空成一个盆地，水从中滴流。
