In another distant age, Icarus was the first human being who can fly in the sky, light and heat of the sun melted the wax on his wings, finally he drowned in the sea.

另一个遥远的时代，伊卡洛斯是第一位飞向天空的人类，但是他双翼上的蜡被太阳的光热融化，最终葬身大海。

Instead of the cleanly glued-up floor, swept by the bees' wings, there are now bits of wax, excrement, dying bees feebly kicking, and dead bees lying not cleared away on the floor.

再不见涂了一层蜡并由蜂翅扇得干干净净的底板，在底板只有蜂房的碎块，粪便，半死的偶尔伸伸腿的蜜蜂及死后而来消除的蜜蜂。

Icarus was the boy in the ancient Greek myth whose father crafted him wings of wax.
