Where the text names it

P098.L03

یک گازانبر زنگ‌زده، یک آبدوات‌کن، یک شانهٔ دندانه‌شکسته، یک بیلچه و یک کوزهٔ لعابی گذاشته

a rusty pair of pincers, an inkpot tool, a comb with broken teeth, a small spade, and a glazed jar,

P099.L01

یادم هست همان روز رفتم سر بساط پیرمرد قیمت کوزه‌اش را پرسیدم. از میان شال گردن دو دندان کرم‌خورده از لای لب شکریش بیرون آمد، خندید، یک خنده زننده خشک کرد که مو به تن آدم راست می‌شد؛ و گفت:

P183.L02

«آیا ندیده می‌خری؟ این کوزه قابلی نداره هان. جوون ببر، خیرشو ببینی».

“Are you buying without seeing? This jar is not worthy of you, eh. Young man, take it; may you see its good.”
