When a bachelor marries,

his wife has three qualities she is an economist in the kitchen, an aristocrat in the living room and a devil in bed.

一位單身漢新婚時，妻子有三項優點：

在廚房她是經濟學者、在客廳她是貴族、在床上她是惡魔。

After a few years, sure enough the three qualities remain,

but not in the same order she is an aristocrat in the kitchen, a devil in the living room and an economist in bed.      

若干年後，這三項優點依然存在，可是秩序有點變動：

在廚房她是貴族、在客廳她是惡魔、在床上她是經濟學者。
