On the contrary, all his energies were aroused in order to meet his expected fate, with a calmness that should do credit to his colour and his manhood; one equally removed from recreant alarm, and savage boasting.
Он напряг все душевные силы, чтобы встретить свою участь спокойно и мужественно, не выказывая ни малодушной боязни, ни дикарского бахвальства.

My nerves are not easily shaken by trifles, but on this occasion I started to my feet in a fright - called out - received no answer - summoned back my recreant courage, and looked under the seat.
Нервы мои в порядке, и я не прихожу в ужас из-за пустяков, но на этот раз я вскочила на ноги от страха, окликнула – никто не отозвался, собрала остатки храбрости и посмотрела под скамью.
