| I wish she was alive, to ride in Jos's carriage once again. | Ах, если бы она была жива, могла бы опять покататься в экипаже Джоза! |
| She kept her own and became it very well." | У нее был свой собственный, и она была в нем очень хороша! |
| And his eyes filled with tears, which trickled down his furrowed old face. | И слезы выступили у него на глазах и заструились по морщинистому старческому лицу. |
| Amelia wiped them away, and smilingly kissed him, and tied the old man's neckcloth in a smart bow, and put his brooch into his best shirt frill, in which, in his Sunday suit of mourning, he sat from six o'clock in the morning awaiting the arrival of his son. However, when the postman made his appearance, the little party were put out of suspense by the receipt of a letter from Jos to his sister, who announced that he felt a little fatigued after his voyage, and should not be able to move on that day, but that he would leave Southampton early the next morning and be with his father and mother at evening. Amelia, as she read out the letter to her father, paused over the latter word; her brother, it was clear, did not know what had happened in the family. Nor could he, for the fact is that, though the Major rightly suspected that his travelling companion never would be got into motion in so short a space as twenty-four hours, and would find some excuse for delaying, yet Dobbin had not written to Jos to inform him of the calamity which had befallen the Sedley family, being occupied in talking with Amelia until long after post-hour. | Эмилия отерла их, с улыбкой поцеловала отца, завязала ему шейный платок нарядным бантом и вколола красивую булавку в жабо его лучшей рубашки. В этой рубашке и праздничной траурной паре старик и сидел с шести часов утра в ожидании приезда сына. |
| There are some splendid tailors' shops in the High Street of Southampton, in the fine plate-glass windows of which hang gorgeous waistcoats of all sorts, of silk and velvet, and gold and crimson, and pictures of the last new fashions, in which those wonderful gentlemen with quizzing glasses, and holding on to little boys with the exceeding large eyes and curly hair, ogle ladies in riding habits prancing by the Statue of Achilles at Apsley House. | На главной улице Саутгемптона есть несколько великолепных портновских мастерских, где в прекрасных зеркальных витринах висят всевозможные роскошные жилеты - шелковые и бархатные, золотые и пунцовые, и выставлены модные картинки, на которых изумительные джентльмены с моноклями ведут за руку кудрявых маленьких мальчиков с непомерно большими глазами и подмигивают дамам в амазонках, скачущим на конях мимо статуи Ахиллеса у Эпсли-Хауса. |
