turbulent fellows that Greenwood had no motive in his act beyond simple common courtesy. The prisoner, however, was still detained in the grasp of the Turks, till the will of the insulted Pasha could be known. On deck soon came the irate Pasha, in company with an old gentleman who was said to have been tutor, formerly, to the present Sultan of Turkey. When the two heard the charge and the explanation, and had consulted together a little while, Greenwood was released. But for the friendly interposition of the Greek, he might have been bastinadoed, or even bowstrung.

白话
格林伍德因为一个希腊人出面说情才免于受刑，这提醒我们：在陌生环境里，主动帮别人一把，往往能化解大麻烦。当时他被土耳其人抓住，等帕夏发落。帕夏带着一位据说是苏丹老师的老人来问话，听了指控和解释后，两人商量片刻就放了他。要不是那个希腊人友好地插话，他可能被杖打甚至被绞死。所以，遇到别人有难时，别吝啬一句公道话；自己遇险时，也要争取有人替你说话。平时多结善缘，关键时刻才有人愿意为你开口。
