The Works of Lucian of Samosata — Volume 04

The barbarian has a keen appreciation of gold: to the treasures of art he is blind.

野蛮人对黄金有敏锐的鉴赏力，却对艺术珍品视而不见。

I feel as if a certain mental exaltation resulted from this magnificence: it is suggestive; the imagination is stimulated.

我感到这种壮丽带来一种精神上的振奋：它令人遐想，激发想象。
