After laying down my pen, I took several turns in a berceau, or covered walk of acacias, which commands a prospect of the country, the lake, and the mountains.

我放下了笔，在金合欢树荫盖的步道上走了几个来回。从那里可以看见田野、湖水和远山。

The revanche du berceau (“revenge of the cradle”) dreamed of by some romantic nationalists as retaliation for the British conquest of 1759 didn’t seem so far-fetched.

但一些理想的民族主义者以“摇篮的报复”来回击英国1759年的占领[1]这一梦想，却似乎没有如此深远的影响。
