It was all over his left thigh, dark and slick in the watery light of a flickering streetlight.
Темную, отливающую блеском в водянистом свете фонарей… все его левое бедро было залито ею.

Not like it needed any help-the only light was from the novenas ranked under Ganej, his eyes twinkling merrily in the flickering gloom.
Свет исходил только от лампад под алтарем Ганеши, глаза которого весело поблескивали в мерцающем сумраке.

The increased illumination was a relief to me, but I wondered if I would ever see daylight again, or if I had already begun an eternity of darkness and flickering candle flame-this in itself stretched before me as a version of hell.
При свете мне стало легче, но я не мог избавиться от мысли, что больше не увижу дневного света и обречен на вечный мрак, прорезанный лишь трепещущими огоньками свечей — они уже воплощали для меня видение ада.

I stood there, breathing hard and looking at him as he stood up by the bathroom door, a pale shadow in the flickering candlelight; his chest and belly heaved with every breath.
На пороге попыталась отдышаться, а дед так и маячил бледной тенью возле ванной комнаты; в мерцании свечей его грудь и живот вздымались при каждом вдохе.

At last the steps sounded close by, and someone coughed. The flickering light seemed to part; a veil dropped from the waggoners' eyes, and they saw a man facing them.
Наконец раздались шаги вблизи, кто-то кашлянул; мигавший свет точно расступился, с глаз спала завеса и подводчики вдруг увидели перед собой человека.

But it sought the fire again as soon as he released it; and remained, addressed towards the flickering blaze, until the nurse appeared, to summon him to bed.
Но оно снова обратилось к камину, как только он его освободил, и не отрывалось от колеблющегося пламени, покуда не пришла нянька укладывать мальчика спать.

But about one o'clock there began a flickering of searchlights athwart that ruddy tumult, a nickering that continued for the rest of the night.
Но около часа ночи по этому багровеющему тревожному небу заметались лучи прожекторов – и не успокаивались до рассвета.

Beyond the line of camp-fires flickering on the open ground, Caswallon silently led a thousand warriors south and then east, circling toward the blackness of Atta forest.
Касваллон под прикрытием горящих костров повел тысячу бойцов на юго-восток, сделал круг и подошел к Атте с другой стороны.

Then the darkness that I'd become so accustomed to gave way to a faint, flickering light.
Потом тьма, к которой я уже успела привыкнуть, сменилась тусклым дрожащим светом.

They went out into the flickering, wind-blown sunlight and strolled down the dreary Euston Road.
Брат и сестра вышли на улицу, где солнечный свет спорил с ветром, нагонявшим тучки, и пошли по унылой Юстон-Род.

The moonlight flickering along their spears, played upon their features and made them ghastly; the chilly night wind tossed their tall and hearse-like plumes.
Лунный свет играл на их копьях и скользил по лицам спящих, делая их похожими на мертвецов. Холодный ночной ветер развевал их плюмажи, похожие на те, что украшают катафалки.

At first it was dark indeed, and we were feeling our way down the steepness of the ancient steps, and then I saw a light flickering in the depths of the vault-not Barley’s lighter, which he relit every few seconds-and I was terribly afraid.
Сперва в самом деле было темно, и мы вслепую нащупывали древние ступени под ногами, но потом впереди, в глубине, замерцал свет сквозь вспышки зажигалки, которой Барли щелкал каждые несколько секунд, — и я страшно испугалась.
