两个老实的叙利亚人将他们的存款拼凑起来买了一块磨石,因为他们的住处相距好几英里。他们就约定,岁数大的那位先留着磨石用,直到把这块磨石刚好用掉一半的体积,然后转给另一个人。
Two frank Syrians pieced together their money to buy a holystone.Because their abodes are many miles away from each other,the elder one can use the holystone first until the half of the holystone will be used. Then the holystone will be delivered to the other one.
