Английский с Дэвидом Г. Лоуренсом. Тень в розовом саду / D. H. Lawrence. The Shadow in the Rose Garden

 It was difficult for her to endure his presence, for he would interfere with her. She could not recover her life. She rose stiffly and went down. She could neither eat nor talk during the meal. She sat absent, torn, without any being of her own. He tried to go on as if nothing were the matter. But at last he became silent with fury. As soon as it was possible, she went upstairs again, and locked the bedroom door. She must be alone. He went with his pipe into the garden. All his suppressed anger against her who held herself superior to him filled and blackened his heart. Though he had not know it, yet he had never really won her, she had never loved him. She had taken him on sufferance.

This had foiled him (это сбило его с толку; to foil – /охот./ сбивать со следа /собаку/; одурачивать, ставить в тупик). He was only a labouring electrician in the mine, she was superior to him (он всего лишь электрик, работающий в шахте, она – выше его; to labour – работать, трудиться /тяжело/; labour – труд; mine – рудник; шахта). He had always given way to her (он всегда уступал ей; to give way – отступать, уступать; давать дорогу, пропускать). But all the while, the injury and ignominy had been working in his soul (но всё это время обида и унижение бурлили в его душе; while – время; промежуток времени; injury – рана, ушиб, травма; обида, оскорбление; ignominy – бесчестье, позор, унижение; to work – работать; действовать; метаться, бурлить, кипеть) because she did not hold him seriously (потому что она не принимала его всерьез). And now all his rage came up against her (и теперь поднялась вся его ярость по отношению к ней; to come up – подниматься, повышаться; усиливаться).

He turned and went indoors (он повернулся и вошел в дом). The third time, she heard him mounting the stairs (в третий раз она услышала, как он поднимается по лестнице; time – время; раз). Her heart stood still (ее сердце замерло; to stand – стоять; быть в каком-л. положении; to stand still – останавливаться; замирать; стоять смирно, неподвижно). He turned the catch and pushed the door – it was locked (он повернул ручку и толкнул дверь – она была заперта; catch – задвижка, защелка, щеколда). He tried it again, harder (он попробовал снова, сильнее). Her heart was standing still (ее сердце замирало).

“Have you fastened the door (ты заперла дверь; to fasten – связывать, скреплять; застегивать/ся/; запирать /на засов, защелку/)?” he asked quietly, because of the landlady (спросил он тихо, из-за хозяйки).

“Yes (да). Wait a minute (погоди минуту).”
