The gale of his grief had blown away his words; his freshet of tears had soaked away the crust of his grief.
Исступление горя лишило его языка; свежесть слез отмочила кору горя.

The freshets had made a small sandy beach through which the pool flowed, and bright green watercress grew in the damp sand.
Весенние потоки образовали здесь нечто вроде песчаной отмели, и во влажном песке вокруг бочажка зеленел водяной кресс.
