雉堞

我清楚地记得我在《牛津学生地图册》（OxfordSchoolAtlas）中看到了长城的雉堞线。

I vividly recall seeing in the " Oxford School Atlas " the Great Wall with its battlement symbol .

一幢四角有塔楼、墙头有雉堞的四方形宅子。

A four-square house , with corner turrets and battlements .

在微风中，城堡的雉堞式装饰墙上飘著一面旗帜。

From the battlement of the tower float a flag in the soft wind .

离开塘沽那些思乡的美军后，我经天津前往北平，在一九四六年除夕进入城墙上筑有雉堞的北平城。

Leaving the homesick Americans at Tangku , I passed through Tientsin to Peiping , entering the crenelated battlements of the Tartar City on the last day of1946 .

别墅建于20世纪60年代，结合了现代与传统摩洛哥特色，包括金属框架的落地玻璃大窗、粉刷灰泥墙、带有雉堞的马蹄形巨大拱门和棋盘图案的大理石地板。

Built in the 1960s , it incorporates Modernist and traditional Moroccan features including large , metal-framed floor-to-ceiling windows , whitewashed stucco walls , giant crenellated horseshoe arches and checkerboard-marble floors .

这是个绅士的住宅，但不是贵族的宅邸。围在楼顶的雉堞增添了些许诗情画意。

It was three storeys high , of proportions not vast , though considerable : a gentleman 's manor-house , not a nobleman 's seat : battlements round the top gave it a picturesque look .
