1.And on the topmost spray of the Rose-tree there blossomed a marvelous rose, petal following petal, as song followed song.

【難句解析】spray:長(zhǎng)著蓓蕾或花朵的小樹(shù)枝；the topmost spray:the highest spray。此句為倒裝句。句子的主語(yǔ)是rose，謂語(yǔ)是blossomed，on the topmost spray of the Rose-tree作地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)，there作on the topmost spray of the Rose-tree的同位語(yǔ)，as song followed song作方式狀語(yǔ)，petal following petal 作插入語(yǔ)。倒裝句分為部分倒裝和完全倒裝，此句為完全倒裝。部分倒裝只是把強(qiáng)調(diào)的部分放在句首，將主語(yǔ)和助動(dòng)詞或情態(tài)動(dòng)詞交換位置，句子的其他成分位置不變。

2.Bitter, bitter was the pain, and wilder and wilder grew her song, for she sang of the Love that is perfected by Death, of the Love that dies not in the tomb.

【難句釋義】The pain became bitter and bitter and her song grew wilder and wilder, for she sang of the love that grows and grows until she died, and of the love that will live in eternity.

【難句解析】本句的前半部分是倒裝句，主語(yǔ)是the pain和her song; for 后主語(yǔ)是she,謂語(yǔ)是sang of；在for 引導(dǎo)原因狀語(yǔ)從句中，它的后面帶有兩個(gè)帶定語(yǔ)從句的名詞短語(yǔ)the love that...作賓語(yǔ)。
