When Pete returned to where Jean Grace waited, a package lay in his hand, wrapped in scarlet paper and tied with a bow of green.

当皮特回到珍等候着的柜台前时，他手里拿着一个小盒子，是用鲜红的纸包起来的，上面还系着一跟打成蝴蝶结的绿丝带。

youdao

Now I come to Thy holy temple, Bow down at Thy throne of grace;

我今来到主的圣殿，俯伏施恩宝座前；

youdao

Let us bow in deep humility to adore God for this wonderful love, and ask for grace in very deed to yield ourselves to the denial and the death of self.

让我们为这奇妙的爱深深谦卑敬拜神，祈求祂帮助我们使我完全舍己，降服在祂面前。

youdao

Satan finds it ignominious and shameful to lower himself to God, to bow and sue for grace with suppliant knee and deify His power, but this kind of submission is shameful not because it's simply always shameful so to debase oneself.

撒旦认为对上帝放低身段，屈膝承欢，并认可他的力量实在是可耻的，但是这种屈从之所以是耻辱,并非是因为通常身段被贬低时会感到耻辱。
