Faulkner, William

He thought of himself laughing when he'd just caused death for his own pleasure, and he was ashamed, but that shame was tempered, it was softened, cause he knew that it would never happen again.
Он вспомнил, как смеялся, используя чужую смерть для собственного удовольствия и ему стало стыдно, но этот стыд не был невыносимым и не терзал его, потому что он знал, что это никогда больше не повторится.

The east wind tempered the spring warmth; wool-white clouds flying in from the Mexican Gulf hindered the direct rays of the April sun.
Восточный ветерок умерял весеннюю жару. Белые, точно шерстяные облака, налетавшие с Мексиканского залива, преграждали путь прямым лучам апрельского солнца.

"Do you know, Dounia, I was looking at you two. You are the very portrait of him, and not so much in face as in soul. You are both melancholy, both morose and hot tempered, both haughty and both generous....
-- Знаешь, Дуня, смотрела я на вас обоих, совершенный ты его портрет и не столько лицом, сколько душою: оба вы меланхолики, оба угрюмые и вспыльчивые, оба высокомерные и оба великодушные...

'Jane, I am not a gentle-tempered man- you forget that: I am not long-enduring; I am not cool and dispassionate.

I would she had retained her original haughtiness of disposition, or that I had a larger share of Front-de-Boeuf's thrice-tempered hardness of heart!”
Уж лучше бы она продолжала держаться все так же высокомерно, или я имел бы побольше той выдержки и жестокости, что у барона Фрон де Бефа».

Dick's hatred was tempered with gratitude for a few moments, and then he forgot the girl entirely. Only the sense of shame remained, and he was nursing it across the Park in the fog.
Ненависть к ней Дика несколько смягчилась чувством благодарности, а затем он совершенно забыл о рыжеволосой девушке, а на душе у него осталось только мучительное чувство стыда, которое он уносил с собой, когда шел в тумане через парк к своему дому.

But I have always observed, that they who are good-natured when children, are good-natured when they grow up; and he was always the sweetest-tempered, most generous-hearted boy in the world."
Но я всегда замечала, что добрые дети вырастают хорошими людьми. А он был самым отзывчивым, самым благородным мальчиком, какого мне когда-либо приходилось встречать.

But hark ye, Lovel; - you are a quiet, gentle-tempered lad; had not you better set up your staff at Monkbarns for a month or two, since I conclude you do not immediately intend to leave this country? -
Но послушайте, Ловел, вы — человек спокойного и мягкого нрава, почему бы вам не разбить свой шатер в Монкбарнсе на месяц-другой, раз вы, по-видимому, не собираетесь немедленно уезжать?

In answer to one question, he sketched his brother's character as that of a man, violent-tempered perhaps and carried away by his passions, but at the same time honourable, proud and generous, capable of self-sacrifice, if necessary.
Отвечая по одному вопросу, он очертил характер брата как человека может быть и неистового и увлеченного страстями, но тоже и благородного, гордого и великодушного, готового даже на жертву, если б от него потребовали.

I know that I myself would be silent for days, and fear that my moodiness must often have tried the sweetest-tempered woman in the world who lived with me.
Я ведь сам знаю, что мне случается погружаться в молчание на несколько дней, и боюсь, что мой угрюмый нрав нередко является немалым испытанием для кротчайшего из всех земных существ, разделяющего со мной мою судьбу.
