Then he shrieked (尖叫) with the pain. Satan was not disturbed, but I felt faint(头晕的) and sick. I said it was a brutal thing(畜生的行径). “No, it was a human thing. You should not insult the brutes by such a misuse of that word; they have not deserved it,” “不对。你应该说这是人的行径，你不能因为自己乱用了一个词儿，玷辱了动物们的声名；它们的所作所为够不上你的这句谩骂,” 撒旦高能分割线 Fragment “And yet he is such an unreasoning creature that he is not able to perceive that the Moral Sense degrades him to the bottom layer of animated beings and is a shameful possession.” “瞧瞧这就是你们这种毫无理性可言的生物，你们根本没有办法领会到正是这种道德感才降低了你们的地位，堕落到比一般别的动物更为不耻的邪恶深渊的最底层，你们的这种虚伪的道德感的确是你们最可耻的印记。” 持续高能 * *
