At first blinding spots of light, then rainbow colours and dark patches, flitted before his eyes. He made haste to dive again, opened his eyes in the water and saw something cloudy-green like a sky on a moonlight night.Сначала ослепительные искры, потом радуги и темные пятна заходили в его глазах; он поспешил опять нырнуть, открыл в воде глаза и увидел что-то мутно-зеленое, похожее на небо в лунную ночь.Чехов, А.П. / СтепьChekhov, A. / The steppeThe steppeChekhov, A.© BiblioBazaar, LLCСтепьЧехов, А.П.© Издательство "Художественная литература", 1974

Time has softened down the colours, but the same stream of light still falls upon the forgotten tomb, of which no trace remains; and, to this day, the stranger is shown in York Cathedral, an old window called the Five Sisters.'Время смягчило краски, но по-прежнему поток света льется на забытую могилу, от которой не осталось ни следа, и по сей день приезжему показывают в Йоркском соборе старинный витраж, называемый «Пять сестер».Диккенс, Чарльз / Жизнь и приключения Николаса НикльбиDickens, Charles / The Life and Adventures of Nicholas NicklebyThe Life and Adventures of Nicholas NicklebyDickens, Charles© Wordsworth Editions Limited 1995Жизнь и приключения Николаса НикльбиДиккенс, Чарльз© Издательство "Правда", 1989
