His luck had held to the last, even to the crowning mercy of a kindly bullet through his head.
Счастье его не изменило ему до конца; сострадательная пуля сжалилась над ним и пробила ему голову.

Nor, in quite other aspects, does Nature in her least palpable but not the less malicious agencies, fail to enlist among her forces this crowning attribute of the terrible.
Да и сама Природа, уже совсем в ином виде, в своих наименее уловимых, но от этого отнюдь не менее зловредных проявлениях, не пренебрегает услугами этого довершающего признака, свойственного всему ужасному.

From the boy's face one might suppose that sacred emblem to be, in his eyes, the crowning confusion of the great, confused city-so golden, so high up, so far out of his reach.
Лицо у мальчика такое, словно эта священная эмблема – самый непонятный для него предмет во всем огромном, непонятном городе; да и немудрено – ведь крест такой ярко-золотой, вознесен так высоко и так ему недоступен.

Such was the crowning triumph of military science, the ultimate explosive that was to give the 'decisive touch' to war…
Таково было величайшее достижение военной науки, ее триумф - невиданной силы взрыв, который должен был "решительно изменить" самую сущность войны.

They drove them into Urshot, where there was a Rural Fete, and Urshot took them as the crowning glory of a happy day.

Now there is rationality in giving a fresh nip to a rope, or in looking well at your mats, or even in crowning a cable; but damme, priest, if I see the use--luff, luff, you lubber; don't ye see, sir, you are steering for Garmany!
Разумеется, очень полезно вовремя менять снасти, присматривать за мачтами и даже за якорным канатом, но, будь я проклят, пастор, если я понимаю, зачем… Ложись на другой галс, ложись, болван! Не видишь, что держишь курс на Германию?..

Soon there were a good ten thousand people gathered, more than for the crowning of the Queen of the Jasmine, more than for the largest guild procession, more than Grasse had ever seen before.
Вскоре собралось тысяч десять народу, больше чем на праздник Королевы Жасмина, больше чем на самый большой крестный ход, больше чем когда-либо вообще собиралось в Грасе.

Then, the crowning absurdity—he slowly, so slowly, dropped down to his knees, his hand still holding mine. He wrapped his other arm around me and buried his face in my belly.
А потом случилось самое невероятное — демон медленно, очень медленно опустился на колени и, не отпуская моей руки, прижался лицом к моему животу.

I believe that a haunting sense of the intensifying unsoundness of his position accounts largely for his increasing irritability and his increasing secretiveness with my aunt and myself during these crowning years.
Должно быть, его преследовала мысль, что положение его становится час от часу все ненадежнее, и потому в эти последние годы — годы своего расцвета — он все чаще раздражался, все больше замыкался в себе, скрывая многое от тети Сьюзен и от меня.

Форсайт никогда прежде не искал ее общества, и они не обсуждали ее возражения против его избрания.
