1·Vanity, it may be, chose to mortify itself, by putting on, for ceremonials of pomp and state, the garments that had been wrought by her sinful hands.
一些人可能是为了抑制自己的虚荣心，才在一些堂皇庄重的场合专门穿戴由她那双有罪的手缝制的服装。
2·Is it not this: to humiliate oneself in order to mortify one's pride?
这个是不是：用羞辱自己的尊严来抑制自己的高傲？
1·It seemed to be utterlv without purpose in my life, except to mortify me when I became aroused during bed baths.
