Examples from texts

But the drafts of fresh air were few and brief, and the smells of the sewer were always quick to return.
Но и эти потоки прохлады не приносили путникам облегчения. Слишком уж быстро зловоние поглощало их, и запах из сточной канавы становился еще невыносимее.

So I quickly gave up the place and preferred to visit a "sewer"--I don't know what else to call it--it was a wretched sordid little place for roulette, managed by a kept woman, who, however, never showed herself in the saloon.
Таким образом, я скоро там бросил и пристрастился ездить в один клоак - иначе не умею назвать. Это была рулетка, довольно ничтожная, мелкая, содержимая одной содержанкой, хотя та в залу сама и не являлась.

There is the Little Ease, for common fees of the crown - rather dark, and the common sewer runs below it; and some gentlemen object to the company, who are chiefly padders and michers.
Есть дрянные камеры но сходной цене — одна крона, -но там темно и внизу проходит сточная труба; да и джентльменам бывает не по душе тамошнее общество — сплошь воры и мошенники.

Those princes of the sewer, swift to dart and turn, had gone mad.
Эти властители сточных труб, всегда такие верткие, — шмыг, и нет ее, — теперь точно все перебесились.

My dear boy," he added turning to me, "there's an eating house close here, it's really a horrible sewer, but one could get tea there, and I invite you to a cup ... this way, quite close, come along."
Милый мой, - обратился он ко мне, - тут есть одна харчевня, в сущности страшный клоак, но там можно чаю напиться, и я б тебе предложил... вот тут сейчас, пойдем же.
