" Stoneworks," she said, mumbling the word as she chewed. She swallowed, wishing she had a drink.
– Камни на пустоши, – пробормотала она, горько сожалея о том, что поблизости нет ни капли пресной воды, чтобы запить скудный сухой паек.

Such was the state of his mouth, that he could hardly speak; but mumbling something about his being willing and able to do what the captain dared not attempt, he snatched the rope and advanced to his pinioned foe.
