fetidness

1. Slow suffocation by filth, a stone box where asphyxia opens its claw in the mire and clutches you by the throat; fetidness mingled with the death-rattle; slime instead of the strand, sulfuretted hydrogen in place of the hurricane, dung in place of the ocean!
    死在芳香甘美的葡萄酒大木桶中，象克拉朗斯①那样，这还可以；如果死在清道夫的垃圾坑中，如艾斯古勃洛，那就太可怕了，在里面挣扎是极丑的，临终时还在粘泥中打滚。

2. A gust of fetidness informed him of the place in which he stood.
    一股恶臭提醒他自己在什么地方。。。。
