The second day two of their sheep plunged into a morass, where they and their burdens were lost; two more died of fatigue a few days after; seven or eight perished with hunger in a desert; and others subsequently fell down precipices.
На другой день два барана увязли в болоте и погибли со всем грузом; два других околели от усталости несколько дней спустя; семь или восемь подохли от голода в пустыне; несколько баранов сорвалось в пропасть.

It would not do to be found in the desert under these circumstances: firing wildly into the cactus from a car full of drugs.
В этом случае найти в пустыне нарушителя спокойствия, бешено палящего в кактус из машины, набитой наркотиками, не представляется возможным.

Dostoevsky, Fyodor
A subject, this, fertile in good resolutions, which impelled him to renounce all earthly goods, and dwell on that fond dream of a desert life, beneath the solitary wealth and luxury of a vast blue sky.
То была благодатная почва для добрых намерений, ибо эта мысль приводила его к отказу от всех благ земных и возвращала к часто лелеемой им мечте о житии в пустыне, единственным богатством которой было бы безбрежное синее небо.

His heart beat fastest when it spoke to the boy of treasure, and more slowly when the boy stared entranced at the endless horizons of the desert.
Сердце учащенно билось, когда говорило о сокровищах, и замирало, когда глаза юноши оглядывали бескрайнюю пустыню.

Well, last year, about St.Peter's day, I went again to that desert--the Lord led me there--and I saw standing in his cell that very thing, a microscope; he had ordered it for a great sum of money from abroad.
Ну так вот, прошлого лета, в Петровки, зашел я опять в ту пустынь - привел господь - и вижу, в келии его стоит эта самая вещь - микроскоп, - за большие деньги из-за границы выписал.

And certainly, though Valetka's extreme thinness was a shock even to an indifferent observer, he still lived and had a long life; and in spite of his pitiable position he was not even once lost, and never showed an inclination to desert his master.
И действительно: хотя Валетка поражал даже равнодушного прохожего своей чрезмерной худобой, но жил, и долго жил; даже, несмотря на свое бедственное положенье, ни разу не пропадал и не изъявлял желанья покинуть своего хозяина.

With a roar and a grunt the Biharin rose to his feet and plunged forward toward the desert, his driver following with shouts and lamentation.
Бишарин с глухим ревом вскочил и стрелой помчался в пустыню. Погонщик с криком и проклятиями кинулся за ним.
