But his misfortune did not drowse. No more than two days had passed before they jerked him onto a prisoner transport again and this time took him all the way to Pechora.
Но беда его не дремала: двух суток не прошло - его дернули опять на этап и теперь повезли на Печору.

Low shuttered shops ran off on either hand; a tram went by with nobody in it, labelled Depot only, ringing and swinging down the empty road, the conductor drowsing on a seat inside, the roof gleaming from the storm.
По обеим сторонам дороги тянулись ряды низеньких, закрытых ставнями, лавочек; по безлюдному шоссе, звеня и качаясь, прошел пустой трамвай с надписью «В парк»; пассажиров в нем не было, кондуктор дремал на одной из скамеек, крыша блестела от ливня.

suddenly she was again keeping half a dozen dates a day with half a dozen men, and drowsing asleep at dawn with the beads and chiffon of an evening dress tangled among dying orchids on the floor beside her bed.
Снова она за день успевала побывать на полдюжине свиданий с полудюжиной молодых людей, снова замертво валилась в постель на рассвете, бросив на пол измятое бальное платье вместе с умирающими орхидеями.

Lunch being over we drifted into the shade of the nearby olives and drowsed sleepily through the heat of the afternoon, while the sharp, soothing song of the cicadas poured over us.
После ленча мы удалились под сень олив и дремали там в течение самой жаркой части дня, усыпленные пением цикад.
