They foresee that, if affairs remain in their present condition, the proletariat will soon take everything, and that is why they are doing their utmost to force the proletariat to barter its impending birthright for a mess of pottage.
Они предвидят, что если дело останется в его современном положении, то скоро пролетариат возьмет все, и потому они всеми силами стремятся заставить его променять предстоящее ему первенство за чечевичную похлебку.

Когда дошло дело до чистописания, я от слез, падавших на бумагу, наделал таких клякс, как будто писал водой на оберточной бумаге.
