The lament in his words, the droop of his head as he admitted his helplessness, struck a familiar chord in Drizzt.
– Жалоба, прозвучавшая в его словах, голова, поникшая при этом признании в беспомощности, – все это задело знакомую струну в душе Дзирта.

The hobbits fell asleep to the sound of the soft singing of Bregalad, that seemed to lament in many tongues the fall of trees that he had loved.
И хоббиты мирно уснули, внимая горестным песнопениям Брегалада, оплакивавшего на разных языках гибель своих возлюбленных, несравненных деревьев.

It was during this time that I perceived most clearly the effect of manner, and was led to lament most deeply the plainness of my own.
Именно тогда я до конца понял все значение хороших манер и горько оплакивал собственную неотесанность.

A sound in the storm but not of the storm, a keening different from the shrill lament of the wind, drew near, receded, drew near, and once more receded.
Какой-то звук, резкий, пронзительный, отличающийся от завываний ветра, вроде бы и не имеющий отношения к бурану, раздался неподалеку, стих, отдаляясь, вновь приблизился, опять отдалился.

But when the funeral had got round us and turned again into the road, her piteous, heart-piercing lament began again.
Но вот покойник миновал нас, выбрался опять на дорогу, и опять раздалось ее жалобное, надрывающее душу пение.

The words blended with the mourn of the cold breeze, a harmony of fear and lament that seemed so fitting in a place called Fell Pass.
Слова смешались с завыванием холодного бриза, превратившись в мелодию страха и причитания, так подходившую этому месту, названному Лютым Ущельем.

The manner of his saying this convinced me thoroughly of what I had scarce ventured to suspect: that, so far from suffering any penitence for the attempt, he did but lament his failure.
То, как он это сказал, окончательно подтвердило догадку, на которую я до сих пор едва отваживался. Он не только не терзался содеянным, но сожалел о неудаче.

The very same writers who lament fragmentation also demand freedom — yet overlook the unfreedom of people bound together in totalistic relationships.
Те же самые писатели, которые причитают по поводу фрагментации, требуют в то же время свободы; однако при этом они упускают из виду отсутствие свободы людей, связанных неразрывными узами.

By reflecting on the former, they find themselves cut off from all possibility of pleasure; and whenever they see a funeral, they lament and repine that others have gone to a harbour of rest to which they themselves never can hope to arrive.
Размышляя над первыми, они с горечью сознают, что для них совершенно отрезана всякая возможность наслаждения; а при виде похорон ропщут и жалуются, что для них нет надежды достигнуть тихой пристани, в которой находят покой другие.
