The vast necropolis in the city 's northeastern corner sits on a few rolling hills , now completely covered with mausoleums , crypts , and graves .
大墓地坐落在城市东北角的一片起伏的山丘上,当然,他现在已经被各式各样的陵墓完全覆盖了。
The following words were written on the tomb of an anglican bishop in the crypts of westminster abbey : when I was young and free and my imagination had no limits , I dreamed of changing the world .
They began as a secret place for adherents of banned religions to bury their dead in consecrated grounds , and evolved over the centuries into expansive underground networks , sometimes with up to four layers of crypts .
But the site 's survival is precarious : sewage runoff and irrigation have affected the underground reservoir beneath the crypts , eroding their stone foundations .
但该遗址眼下岌岌可危:污水横流,作物灌溉已经影响了墓穴下的蓄水池,侵蚀了石头围基。
Someone who steals valuables from graves or crypts .
从坟墓或地下室里偷取贵重物品的人。
Note the crypts that are lined by numerous goblet cells .
