It was a rich compound of whiskey after-shave lotion shoe polish woolens and the rankness of a mature male.

那是一种成分丰富的气味，混合着威士忌酒、须后水、鞋油、羊毛衣物以及一个成熟男人的味道。

Good things lost amid a wilderness of weeds, to be sure, whose rankness far overtopped their neglected growth;

好东西埋没在一片荒草中，当然野草蔓生以后，就盖过了它们的不被重视的成长；

You'd think New Yorkers would be quick to defend the capital of the world - but the nose knows; city residents ranked our rankness as the second-worst in the nation, behind, obviously, Baltimore.

你可能以为纽约人会迅速跳起来为这个世界之都辩护，但是天晓得纽约居民也把纽约评为全国第二脏的城市，当然，仅次于巴尔的摩。
