They had now reached the house of the parish clerk.

他们现在已经到了教区书记员的家。

But the parish clerk is also lusting after the wife, and comes by every night to sing outside her house.

但是教区书记员也对妻子很感兴趣，每天晚上都到她家外面唱歌。

This may seem a strange mode of speaking about the reading of a parish clerk—a man in rusty spectacles, with stubbly hair, a large occiput, and a prominent crown.

这似乎是一种奇怪的谈论教区书记阅读的方式——一个戴着锈迹斑斑的眼镜、短发、大枕骨和突出头冠的人。

Then, wot with undertakers, and wot with parish clerks, and wot with sextons, and wot with private watchmen (all awaricious and all in it), a man wouldn’t get much by it, even if it wos so.

然后，与承办人一起工作， 与教区书记员一起工作， 与教堂司事一起工作，与私人看守人一起工作（所有人都心存侥幸， 全都参与其中），一个人不会从中得到多少， 即使是这样。
