Alone for the moment, on a solid dun pony, was Peggy Gates, her eyes roving over the crowd in search of someone.
Брет увидел Пегги Гейтс. Она сидела на буланом пони в полном одиночестве и явно искала кого-то глазами в толпе.

An iron mission-style bed with white sheets and a dun comforter, a single chair by the empty fireplace, a full-length mirror next to a flimsy door leading to the Nuevo Rio version of a bathroom.
Простая железная кровать, белые простыни, одеяло, одинокий стул возле холодного камина и большое зеркало рядом с тонкой дверью, ведущей в помещение, которое в Нуэво-Рио считалось ванной.

He too had been to the hospital more than once, not for medical treatment, but to see the doctor about horses -- to ask whether he had not one for sale, and whether his honour would not like to swop his bay mare for a dun-coloured gelding.
В больнице и он бывал не раз, но приезжал не лечиться, а потолковать с доктором насчет лошадей: нет ли продажной и не пожелает ли его высокоблагородие господин доктор променять гнедую кобылку на буланого меринка.

The horsemen too seemed identical – even though some were beardless and others grey-haired, even though some were on dun ponies, others on black…
И всадники в степи все казались одними и теми же, одинаковыми, хоть были они то безбороды и молоды, то в серой седине, то на буланых, то на вороных летучих коньках…

Xavier was not plowing dun English fields, like the worthy forbears of Dr. Kenneth, who were doubtless as rustic as they alleged themselves to be royal.
Ксавье не ходил за плугом по бурым английским полям, как почтенные предки доктора Кеннета, которые, хоть и мнили себя королями, вернее всего были землепашцами.

A long dray laden with old iron came round the corner of Sir Patrick Dun's hospital covering the end of Stephen's speech with the harsh roar of jangled and rattling metal.
Длинная подвода, груженная железным ломом, выехала из-за угла больницы сэра Патрика Дана, заглушив конец фразы Стивена гулким грохотом дребезжащего, громыхающего металла.

Duns Scotus, at all events, may be credited with having related just price to cost, that is, the producers' or traders' expenditure of money and effort (expensae et labores).
Во всяком случае, Дунсу Скоту можно отдать должное за то, что он соотнес справедливую цену с издержками, т. е. с затратами денег и усилий (expensae et labores), производителей и торговцев.
