Duke craned his neck to see around the kitchen, just in case jewels and treasure were hanging out of the dresser drawers.
– Герцог вытянул шею, заглядывая в кухню. Уж не там ли хранятся те самые сундуки с золотыми монетами?

I'll be damned if they don't dress like they were trying to make every man they passed on the street want to reach out and clap his hand on it.
Будь я проклят, если они не нарочно для того так одеваются, чтоб каждому прохожему хотелось рукой пощупать.

There was digging and ditching and yamplanting, and a dozen other things to be done, so we were busy enough all day; though in the evening we had a little time to ourselves.
Мы рыли землю, проводили канализацию, работали на бататовых плантациях, и было еще много других работ, так что весь день у нас был занят, зато вечер принадлежал нам.

If it were not a dog I was speaking of, I should have called him 'disillusioned.'

The Company, who had passed the night in a sheltered gully, were already astir, some crowding round the blazing fires and others romping or leaping over each other's backs for their limbs were chilled and the air biting.
Воины Белого отряда, проведя ночь в защищенном ущелье, чуть свет были уже на ногах, и теперь одни грелись, теснясь у костра, другие бегали или играли в чехарду, разминая окоченевшие от резкого холода руки и ноги.

Vyatcheslav Ilarionovitch does not read much; when he is reading he incessantly works his moustaches and eyebrows up and down, as if a wave were passing from below upwards over his face.
Читает Вячеслав Илларионыч мало, при чтении беспрестанно поводит усами и бровями, сперва усами, потом бровями, словно волну снизу вверх по лицу пускает.

Her face, above a spotted dress of dark blue crepe-de-chine, contained no facet or gleam of beauty, but there was an immediately perceptible vitality about her as if the nerves of her body were continually smouldering.
В лице, оттененном синим в горошек крепдешиновым платьем, не было ни одной красивой или хотя бы правильной черты, но от всего ее существа так и веяло энергией жизни, словно в каждой жилочке тлел готовый вспыхнуть огонь.

В его последних словах прозвучал неподдельный интерес, и я заметил, что он проницательно взглянул на меня.

White objects cascaded out, were caught by the wind, and fountained over Ankh-Morpork and the watching crowds.
Из него посыпались белые предметы. Подхваченные игривым ветерком, они разлетались по всему Анк-Морпорку и падали на любопытствующую толпу.

Seven photographers were perching in the mighty crown of an isolated tree like a flock of overgrown crows, their eyes fixed on the opposite bank.
В могучей кроне одинокого дерева, как стая огромных ворон, сидело семь фотографов, вперив взгляд в другой берег.

They were soon charred by the suddenly leaping flame; they cracked and smoked, and began to contract, curling up their burning ends.
Резко зачернелись они на внезапно вспыхнувшем пламени, затрещали, задымились и пошли коробиться, приподнимая обожженные концы.

Nikolka turned round anxiously to his companion, but she was walking beside him apparently unperturbed; only her face was pale and her brows were drawn together in a frown.
Николка тревожно обернулся на свою спутницу, но та – ничего – шла рядом с ним, и только лицо ее было бледно, а брови она нахмурила.
