The air was now clearer and colder, and though still far off, the walls of Mordor were no longer a cloudy menace on the edge of sight, but as grim black towers they frowned across a dismal waste.
В холодном и ясном утреннем свете все же еще далекие стены-утесы Мордора не нависали угрозой на небосклоне, а исполинскими черными башнями сумрачно взирали окрест.

Here was a "menace" to the much-expanded and reinterpreted Monroe Doctrine.
Это Выло «угрозой» доктрине Монроэ, понятой в широком смысле слова и так часто переистолкованной.

Where I saw danger and menace, Bobby saw only innocent ribbing- a little on the harsh side, perhaps, but still innocent.
Там, где я вижу опасность и зло, для Бобби существуют лишь невинные шалости – немного грубоватые, конечно, но все-таки невинные.

Her face was distorted and malignant with menace, even the bridge of the nose wrinkling from tip to eyes so prodigious was her snarl.
Шерсть на ней поднялась дыбом, в горле клокотало яростное рычание, губы и нос судорожно подергивались.

But when he smiled down at her, his eyes were flat and cold, his teeth a flash of menace in his scarlet mouth that struck fear in her heart.
Но когда он улыбался ей, глаза оставались пустыми и холодными, а зубы угрожающе блестели, отчего страх пронзил ее сердце.

The only one not frozen with horror at the thought of some hidden menace lurking round his feet was Theodore, and he gravely bent down, lifted the cloth and poked his head under the table.
Единственный среди гостей, кого не охватил ужас от мысли, что у ног его притаилась опасность, был Теодор. Он спокойно нагнулся, поднял скатерть и заглянул под стол.

He walked over to Fifth Avenue, dodging the blind, black menace of umbrellas, and standing in front of Delmonico's hailed an auto-bus.
Он вышел на Пятую авеню, увертываясь от черной слепой угрозы зонтов, и, остановившись перед «Дельмонико», сделал знак автобусу.

Even the moon above them seemed gray now, pale and unthreatening, washed out and emptied of its menace.
Даже луна в небе казалась серой, бледной и нестрашной. Из нее словно бы вытек весь ужас, и ничего зловещего в ней не осталось.

They halted, cowering on the evil-smelling ground; but they saw nothing in the gloomy evening sky above, and soon the menace passed, high overhead, going maybe on some swift errand from Barad-dur.
Они вжались в сухую зловонную землю, но сумеречные небеса не омрачились: видно, зловещий посланец Барад-Дура промчался стороной.

"Perhaps I haven't forgiven him, though," she said, with a sort of menace in her voice, and she dropped her eyes to the ground as though she were talking to herself.
— А ведь может еще и не простила, — как-то грозно проговорила она, опустив глаза в землю, как будто одна сама с собой говорила.

The point upon which Montrose finally assembled his little army, was in Strathearn, on the verge of the Highlands of Perthshire, so as to menace the principal town of that county.
Сборный пункт, к которому Монтроз в конце концов стянул свое небольшое войско, находился в Стратерне, на границе горных районов Пертшира, откуда маркиз мог угрожать главному городу этого графства.
