In one hand I was holding a ragged, long-suffering "Algebra" and in the other a small piece of chalk which had already besmeared my hands, my face, and the elbows of my jacket.
В одной руке я держал изорванную мягкую "Алгебру" Франкера, в другой - маленький кусок мела, которым испачкал уже обе руки, лицо и локти полуфрачка.

I can compare these drawings less to chalk drawings on a blackboard than to drawings made with phosphorus on a dark wall at night, the phosphorus would show luminous vapors which were absent from my lines.
Я могу сравнить эти изображения не с рисунками мелом на черной доске, но с рисунками, сделанными фосфором ночью на темной стене, причем люминесцирующие пары фосфора на моих линиях отсутствовали.
