He walked at the other's heels with a swing to his shoulders, and his legs spread unwittingly, as if the level floors were tilting up and sinking down to the heave and lunge of the sea.

他跟在那人的后面走，双肩一摇一摆的，两条腿不知不觉地张开着，好像这平坦的地板正随着海浪的起伏和涌动忽儿上升，忽儿下沉似的。

I remembered the flit gun man with his grey wax hands and his grey wax face, his arms spread wide and his legs drawn up and he did look a little like a butterfly; not too much, you know.

我想起了那个手拿喷雾器的男人的那双灰色的蜡像手，那张灰色的蜡像脸，胳膊伸展着，腿曲着，确实有点像蝴蝶，可是也不太像，你知道的。
