balls full of seed

精力旺盛,蓄势待发(带有性意味)

这是一个非常粗俗且带有性暗示的表达。字面意思是「睾丸里充满了精子」,引申为「精力旺盛」、「性欲旺盛」或者「充满男子气概、准备大干一场」的样子。在剧中使用,是对这些年轻骑士的讽刺,暗指他们上场比武并非完全出于荣耀,而是带着年轻人的冲动和荷尔蒙。

Their lords sent them to the tourney field
with fists full of steel and balls full of seed,
and we expect them to act with honor and grace.
