When news of the shipment spread, the price of coffee would drop and Miguel would profit handsomely from the difference in price, as dictated by the puts, but these profits would only whet his appetite, a small first course in the larger feast ahead.
Когда дойдут слухи о поступлении большой партии кофе, цена на него упадет — и Мигель получит значительный доход от разницы в цене. Но эти прибыли только возбудят его аппетит, как небольшая закуска перед предстоящим пиршеством.

In the end, in spite of warnings, hunger decided them, because Bombur kept on describing all the good things that were being eaten, according to his dream, in the woodland feast; so they all left the path and plunged into the forest together.
Под конец голод поборол благоразумие: не в силах более слушать, как Бомбур расписывает яства на лесном пире, они все вместе покинули тропу и углубились в лес.
