"emaciated bony hands"
"a nightmare population of gaunt men and skeletal boys"
"eyes were haggard and cavernous"
"small pinched faces"
"kept life in his wasted frame only by grim concentration"
"we had long anticipated his cadaverous end"
Death and decay, cadaverous smell.
死亡与腐烂,苍白的味道。

苍白的梦何时不再苍白?
