« Hope humbly then; with trembling pinions soar;
Wait the great teacher, Death, and God adore;
What future bliss He gives not thee to know,
But gives that hope to be thy blessing now. »― Alexander Pope

……
看到一则影片提到一个词“拜托斯手法”
https://youtu.be/PLdJJ0XgOnk
搜了一圈没有找到到底在说什么
最后是在推荐影片里的另一则影片中找到了对应原文#Bathos，一般翻译成#突降法
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathos
是#AlexanderPope（亚历山大·蒲柏）在《Peri Bathous, Or the Art of Sinking in Poetry》里提出的概念我真的求求了，youtuber在使用专业术语时能不能附上英文原文？特别是想自己自创一个翻译名词的时候？
