After meeting Napoleon in 1796, a Venetian governor described him as " a vain man who believes he is superhuman" .

在1796年与拿破仑会面后，一位威尼斯总督将他描述为“一个自认为是超人的虚荣之人”。

In what a disgraceful light might it not strike so vain a man! It might seem as if she had purposely thrown herself in his way again!

以他这样傲慢的一个人，又会怎样瞧不起这件事！她这次好像是重新自己送上门来。

To be sure, there were several patches on him, but the tinsmiths did a good job, and as the Woodman was not a vain man he did not mind the patches at all.

不过，从此他身上多了好几个补钉，那是难以避免的，这些铁皮匠已经把工作做得非常精细啦，而且铁皮人并不图慕外表的虚容，这些补钉，他不放在眼里。

How strange must it appear to him! In what a disgraceful light might it not strike so vain a man! It might seem as if she had purposely thrown herself in his way again!

他会觉得多么奇怪！以他这样傲慢的一个人，又会怎样瞧不起这件事！她这次好象是重新自己送上门来。
