He made as if to leap from the bed, but Torpenhow's arms were round him, and Torpenhow's chin was on his shoulder, and his breath was squeezed out of him. He could only gasp, 'Blind!' and wriggle feebly.
Он сделал движение, словно хотел выскочить из кровати, но Торпенгоу обхватил его обеими руками и прижался подбородком к его плечу, так что он едва мог дышать, и, слабо сопротивляясь, он повторял одно только слово: ослеп! ослеп!

Other shimmering flashes lit up the palace of Herod the Great facing the temple on the western hill; as they did so the golden statues, eyeless and fearful, seemed to leap up into the black sky and stretch their arms towards it.
Другие трепетные мерцания вызывали из бездны противостоящий храму на западном холме дворец Ирода Великого, и страшные безглазые золотые статуи взлетали к черному небу, простирая к нему руки.
