“Then I learned just how much of an aerodynamic wonder the batten sail is-it makes a sort of flat curve.Только потом я узнал, каким чудом аэродинамики является парус на бамбуковых реях.

The brain had its own food on which it battened, and the imagination, made grotesque by terror, twisted and distorted as a living thing by pain, danced like some foul puppet on a stand and grinned through moving masks.Мозг питался своими запасами и работал усиленно, фантазия, изощренная страхом, корчилась и металась, как живое существо от сильной боли, плясала подобно уродливой марионетке на подмостках, скалила зубы из-под меняющейся маски.Wilde, Oscar / The Picture of Dorian GrayУайльд, Оскар / Портрет Дориана ГреяПортрет Дориана ГреяУайльд, Оскар© Государственное издательство художественной литературы, 1960The Picture of Dorian GrayWilde, Oscar
