unpossessed

1. " I was then almost assured that the inheritance had neither profited the Borgias nor the family, but had remained unpossessed like the treasures of the Arabian Nights, which slept in the bosom of the earth under the eyes of the genie.

“当时我就几乎肯定，那笔遗产并没有被布琪亚那一族人或他的本族人得去那依旧是一笔无主之财，象《一千零一夜》故事里的宝藏一样，仍在大地的怀抱里，由一个魔鬼看守着。

2. We were unpossessed because ownership of the land was denied us by England and because we did not give ourselves to the land in the spiritual and physical union love demands.

我们没有佔有，因为英国拒绝给我们土地所有权，因为我们并没有奉献于土地，以爱所要求的精神跟肉体的结合。

3. There is always a saying goes like that: The best is always the unpossessed.

所以也常有这样的一句话“得不到的东西永远是最好的”。
