This same great personage conceived the brilliant idea of sowing his fields with poppies, as the result of an apparently simple calculation; poppy being dearer than rye, he argued, it is consequently more profitable to sow poppy.
Тот же самый сановник вздумал было засеять все свои поля маком, вследствие весьма, по-видимому, простого расчета: мак, дескать, дороже ржи, следовательно, сеять мак выгоднее.

'Mr Swiveller,' said Quilp, 'being pretty well accustomed to the agricultural pursuits of sowing wild oats, Miss Sally, prudently considers that half a loaf is better than no bread.
— Познав на собственном опыте первую заповедь земледельца: что посеешь, то и пожнешь, — продолжал Квилп, — мистер Свивеллер благоразумно решил, что лучше глодать корочку, чем сидеть вовсе без хлеба.

Near the furthest hut in the hamlet stood a peasant woman in a short petticoat, with long thin legs like a heron. She was sowing something. A white dust floated languidly from her sieve down the hillock.
Около крайней избы поселка стояла баба в короткой исподнице, длинноногая и голенастая, как цапля, и что-то просеивала; из-под ее решета вниз по бугру лениво шла белая пыль.

What lawsuits grow out of the graves of rich men, every day; sowing perjury, hatred, and lies among near kindred, where there should be nothing but love!
Какие тяжбы произрастают повседневно на могилах богачей! Сколько сеется лжи, ненависти, раздоров среди близких родных, там, где нет места ничему, кроме любви.

He awoke in the night and sensed the tension in the air around him; an evil wind blew through the streets, sowing fear and distrust.
Проснувшись среди ночи, он ощутил беспокойство, разлитое в воздухе. По улицам носился злой ветер, сея страх и неверие.

There was no work suitable to our instincts; so me and Liverpool began to subsist on the red rum of the country and such fruit as we could reap where we had not sown.
Работы по нашему вкусу не было, и мы с Ливерпулем стали питаться местным красным ромом и плодами, которые нам удавалось собирать там, где мы не сеяли.
