What she specially liked about him was that he worked, and supported his family by his toil.
Ей, впрочем, нравится больше всего то, что он работает, трудится и один поддерживает всё семейство.

One summer morning this poor wretch, who had left the world a young man of three-and-twenty, found himself thrust out again from the grey simplicity of toil and discipline, that had become his life, into a dazzling freedom.
И вот в одно прекрасное летнее утро бедняга, чьим уделом с двадцати трех лет был унылый, изнурительный труд и жесткие тюремные правила, вновь очутился в изумительном мире свободы.

Even toil will be a joy, you may deny yourself bread for your children and even that will be a joy.
Тут и работа весела, тут и в хлебе себе иной раз отказываешь для детей, и то весело.

But my enthusiasm was checked by my anxiety, and I appeared rather like one doomed by slavery to toil in the mines, or any other unwholesome trade than an artist occupied by his favourite employment.
Однако к восторгу примешивалась и тревога, и я больше походил на раба, томящегося в рудниках или ином гиблом месте, чем на творца, занятого любимым делом.

Being quite dispirited with toil, and wholly overcome by grief and dispair, I lay down between two ridges, and heartily wished I might there end my days.
Разбитый усталостью и совершенно подавленный горем и отчаянием, я лег в борозду и от всего сердца желал смерти.

He used to toil with special industry for a fortnight before Tatyana Borissovna's birthday; he was the first to present his congratulations and offer her a roll of paper tied up with a pink ribbon.
С особенным усердием трудился он недели за две до именин Татьяны Борисовны: являлся первый с поздравлением и подносил свиток, повязанный розовой ленточкой.

He in the night-watches tackled and disposed of the great mysteries of Life and Death, and was looking forward to a lifetime of toil amid a parish without a single rich man in it.
Ночами он бился над разрешением великих тайн жизни и смерти, повелевал ими и предвкушал земные труды до конца дней своих в кругу прихожан, в числе которых не будет ни одного богатого человека.

It seemed to Mr. Barnstaple that work, in the sense of uncongenial toil, had almost disappeared from Utopia.
И мистеру Барнстейплу показалось, что труд в смысле непривлекательной и нелюбимой работы исчез в Утопии.

The excuse of scarcity, which has justified institutionalised repression since its inception, weakens as man's knowledge and control over nature enhances the means for fulfilling human needs with a minimum of toil.
Это оправдание теряет свою силу по мере того, как развивающееся человеческое познание и управление процессами природы увеличивает средства, позволяющие обеспечивать удовлетворение потребностей людей с помощью минимума затрат орудий производства.
