And out from the fields around, glitter the faint lights of more distant camps, as here some great lord's followers lie mustered, and there false John's French mercenaries hover like crouching wolves without the town.
А вдали, на полях, окружающих город, чуть мерцают огоньки других костров, где, видимо, тоже расположились лагерем отряды каких-нибудь знатных лордов, и рыщут, словно трусливые волки, французские наемники вероломного короля Джона.

She was tormented by hunger, she thought with what greediness she would eat a lamb, and these thoughts made her teeth snap, and her eyes glitter in the darkness like two sparks of light.
Ее мучил голод, она думала о том, с какою жадностью она будет есть ягненка, и от таких мыслей зубы у нее щелкали и глаза светились в потемках, как два огонька.

A glitter of sunlight made the early winter more like a late autumn, and the dark woods were touched here and there with red and golden leaves, like the last rays of a lost sunset.
День был солнечный, и ранняя зима походила на позднюю осень, а в темных лесах еще пестрели кое-где красные и золотые листья, словно последние клочки заката.

At the far end of the room a heavy bag shuddered as a double oddity - a male Necromance, with the trademark spatters of glitter in his aura - worked it low and dirty, throwing an occasional elbow, paying no attention to anything else.
В дальнем конце комнаты вздрагивала большая боксерская груша, вдвойне странно – мужчина некромант с фирменно сияющей аурой – работал, иногда выбрасывая локти, не обращая ни на что внимания.
