She looked round at them out of the corner of those lustrous, mild, cynical eyes, and from her grey lips a little dribble of saliva threaded its way towards the straw.

Clarissa craned her neck to get a better look at him and shuddered: Gauche's face was hideously contorted and there was dark blood bubbling out of the centre of his forehead and dribbling onto the floor in two narrow rivulets.
Кларисса изогнула шею, чтобы получше рассмотреть лежащего, и передернулась: лицо Гоша было чудовищно искажено, а посреди лба пузырилась темная кровь, двумя струйками стекая на пол.

A spike of fire jabbed through my left lung, blood dribbling down my chin, muscles pulled out of alignment by smashed bones, I swayed on my numb feet and saw what I had done.
В тот же миг огненный штырь пробил мое левое легкое. Жгучая боль, кровь, текущая по подбородку, сломанные кости, непослушные мышцы… Качаясь, не чувствуя под собой ног, я смотрела на то, что у меня получилось.
