It would not even need a skull behind it; almost anonymous, it would only need vague inference of some walking flesh and blood desired by someone else even if only in some shadow-realm of make-believe.
И совсем не обязательно, чтобы, за ним скрывался череп; пусть это будет любое безымянное лицо, смутный намек на какое-то живое существо, предмет желаний другого существа, хотя бы даже только в призрачном мире сказки.

Capitalism would perhaps not need to enter into active combat with this “invincible armada” which, even without that, will be wrecked on the reefs of land hunger and the burden of taxation.
Капитализм мог бы, пожалуй, и не вступать в активную борьбу с этой «Непобедимой Армадой»; она и без того разрушается о подводные камни малоземелья и налоговых тягостей.
