Mr. Brown came to an inn on a very cold day, and could get no room near the fire.
在一个寒冷的冬日， 布朗先生来到一家小客栈，发现火炉旁边已经没有空位了。
He called to the hostler to fetch a peck of oysters, and give them to his horse.
于是，他让旅店的马夫去拿些牡蛎来喂他的马。
"Will your horse eat oysters?" said the hostler.
“您的马吃牡蛎吗？”马夫问道。
"Try him, " said Mr. Brown.
“你试着喂喂吧。”布朗先生回答。
Immediately the people ran to see this wonder, and Mr. Brown who alone remained in the room, chose the best seat by the fire and made himself comfortable. 　
顷刻间，人们都跑去看这一奇观，而布朗先生却独自呆在屋里，他在火炉旁找了个最好的座位，舒舒服服地坐在那取暖了。
