Spiridione's brother was now station-master at Bologna, and thus he himself could spend his holiday travelling over Italy at the public expense.

Spiridione 的兄弟现在是博洛尼亚的站长， 因此他自己可以花假期自费在意大利旅行。

They have generally, therefore, been educated at the public expense; and their numbers are everywhere so great, as commonly to reduce the price of their labour to a very paltry recompence.

因此，他们通常接受公费教育；他们的人数到处都是如此之多，以至于通常将他们的劳动价格降低到非常微不足道的报酬。
