Was she not his companion, his obedient helpmate, whom God had sent to him that his manhood might not wither up in solitude?
Разве она не подруга его, не покорная служанка, которую бог послал ему, дабы мужская сила его не иссохла в одиночестве?

But as they went farther down the curve of Mother Skaith's last green girdle, the Fertile Belt, this richness began to wither.
Однако, по мере того, как они приближались к изгибу последнего зеленого пояса Матери Скэйта - Плодородного пояса этой планеты - богатство уменьшалось.

Well, good-bye,' he said once more in Russian, and grasping his horse by the withers, looked round at those seeing him off and affectionately encountered Marya Dnzitrievna's eye.
Ну, прощай, - сказал он опять по-русски и, взявшись за холку лошади, обвел глазами всех провожавших его и ласково встретился взглядом с Марьей Дмитриевной.

Once obviously tall and strongly formed, the rabbi lay withered and exhausted in his bed, his luxuriant white beard almost falling to his chest.
Он явно когда-то был высоким и хорошо сложенным мужчиной, а теперь лежал в постели увядший и изнемогший. Пышная седая борода казалась приклеенной и вот-вот готовой свалиться на одеяло.

The old lady got up and made me a bow, not letting go out of her withered hands a fat worsted reticule that looked like a sack.
Старушка привстала и поклонилась мне, не выпуская из сухощавых рук толстого гарусного ридикюля в виде мешка.

I turned homewards; but it was long before the figure of poor Akulina faded out of my mind, and her cornflowers, long since withered, are still in my keeping.
Я вернулся домой; но образ бедной Акулины долго не выходил из моей головы, и васильки ее, давно увядшие, до сих пор хранятся у меня…
