I followed her inside, the fear of the redneck now almost forgotten in the excitement of a looming commission.Я вошел в фургон.

The ledge narrowed as it curved around the looming granite face of the mountain Where it bent around a jutting cornice, it was hardly more than a footpath Garion dismounted and led his horse around the cornice.За гранитным уступом терраса сузилась, а за нависающим карнизом и вовсе стала шириной с пешую тропу. Гарион слез с коня и под уздцы провел его под карнизом.Eddings, David / Magician's GambitЭддингс, Дэвид / В поисках камняВ поисках камняЭддингс, ДэвидMagician's GambitEddings, David© 1983 by David Eddings

Neither of us dared to turn toward that wattle-and-daub cottage that we could feel looming behind us as high as a castle now, not even when the laughter began.Мы так и не посмели обернуться к глинобитной хижине, которая теперь возвышалась позади нас, грозная, точно замок. Даже когда раздался хохот.Beagle, Peter / The Innkeeper's SongБигл, Питер / Песня трактирщикаПесня трактирщикаБигл, ПитерThe Innkeeper's SongBeagle, Peter© Peter S. Beagle, 1993
I looked at that long, solid line of red and blue looming through the smoke of the guns, and I shook my fist at it as I went.Я посмотрел на длинную, сплошную красно-синюю линию, маячившую сквозь пороховой дым, и на скаку погрозил ей кулаком.Conan Doyle, Arthur / The Adventures of Brigadier GerardКонан Дойль, Артур / Приключения бригадира ЖерараПриключения бригадира ЖерараКонан Дойль, Артур© Издательство "Правда", 1966The Adventures of Brigadier GerardConan Doyle, Arthur© 2008 by Fireship Press

There were the woods looming up ahead, just as they do now, there were dogs howling and the shadows and no human sound.Впереди чернел лес, вот как сейчас, двигались тени, выли собаки, а больше — ни звука, точно ты один на всем свете.Fitzgerald, Francis Scott Key / This Side of ParadiseФицджеральд, Фрэнсис Скотт Кей / По эту сторону раяПо эту сторону раяФицджеральд, Фрэнсис Скотт Кей© Издательство "Художественная литература", 1977This Side of ParadiseFitzgerald, Francis Scott Key© 2000 by Literary Classics of the United States, Inc., New York, N.Y.

I do remember the hover looming up out of the crystalline air and thinking, How did he manage to get us back here?Помню вырисовывающийся в прозрачном воздухе силуэт самолета и свой мысленный вопрос: «Как это ему удалось?

As in the distance he caught sight of the Solitaire looming blackly against the purplish sky, and the ruddy glow of the tiles on the church, a faint smile came to his lips, while to his calm eyes there rose an expression of perfect serenity.А когда увидел вдали на лиловатом небе черную полосу «Пустынника» и красные черепицы церковной кровли, то слабо улыбнулся. В светлых глазах его засветилась прежняя ясность.Zola, Emile / Abbe Mouret's TransgressionЗоля, Эмиль / Проступок аббата МуреПроступок аббата МуреЗоля, ЭмильAbbe Mouret's TransgressionZola, Emile© BiblioBazaar, LLC
