Like all killers, you fear that a greater killer will stalk you as you stalk others.
Аэнир, подобно всем хищникам, боится, как бы к нему не подкрался более крупный хищник.

Then it pivoted on its stalk-like legs and I could see its great eyes looking at us in the faint moon-glow of Venus.
Оно развернулось на суставчатых ногах, и я увидел его большие глаза смотревшие на нас в тусклом свете Венеры.

This bucket fascinated him, and after he had drunk his fill he would upset the remains of the water and then pat the bucket with his great paws, making it roll round the cage so that he could stalk it and pounce on it.
Ведро стало его любимой игрушкой. Он напьется из него вдоволь, остатки воды выльет и хорошенько стукнет по ведру могучей лапой. Потом бежит вдогонку и валится на него.

She vanished altogether under her hat; nothing could be seen but her neck, supple and tender as the stalk of a big flower.
Она вся исчезла под шляпой: виднелась только шея, гибкая и нежная, как стебель крупного цветка.

One stalk was broken, and half of it hung down with a soiled flower at its tip. The other, though also soiled with black mud, still stood erect.
Один стебель был сломан, и половина его, с грязным цветком на конце, висела книзу; другой, хотя и вымазанный черноземной грязью, все еще торчал кверху.

Constrained to stalk from behind windows but nonetheless full of enthusiasm for the hunt, with a rough growl to express confidence in his prowess, Merlin abandoned his post.

A two-foot-long, bulky piece of maguey stalk had been carved so that the porous tissue served as a pillow, or a neckrest.
Большой, длиной в два фута стебель агавы был разрезан таким образом, что пористая ткань служила подушкой или опорой для шеи.

So while Dilsey held the horse Luster put a splint on the flower stalk with a twig and two bits of string and gave it to Ben.

It gave no sign of speaking, let alone reciting poetry. It looked utterly bestial, with no trace of intelligence beyond what it needed to stalk its prey.
Никаких признаков того, что дракон говорит, а тем более читает стихи, не наблюдалось. Огромная зверюга, чьих мозгов хватало лишь на то, чтобы поймать и сожрать добычу.
