At the foot of the altar steps Cardinal Montanelli knelt alone, bare-headed, with clasped hands.

在祭坛台阶脚下，红衣主教蒙泰尼里双手合十，光着头，独自跪着。

The altar steps had a carpet of grass green, strewn with white and gold daisies.

祭坛台阶上铺着草绿色的地毯，上面点缀着白色和金色的雏菊。

So he passed up the nave to the chancel rails; and there the bearers paused, and he went out from under the canopy and up to the altar steps.

所以他从中殿走到圣坛栏杆；抬轿的人在那儿停了下来，他从华盖下出来，走到祭坛的台阶上。
