The remains of a fountain burbled in the center of cracked flagstones, sending up a stench redolent of primitive plumbing.
В окружении потрескавшихся плит булькали остатки фонтана, распространяя вонь примитивного водопровода.

As machines, we were flabby bags of ancient plumbing and wiring, of rusty hinges and feeble springs.
Но как машины, мы были только мешками с подержанной проводкой и канализацией, с проржавленными петлями и с ослабевшими пружинами.

It was about touching that hair with the side of his fingertip, and knowing yet plumbing fearlessly the depths of her ocean eyes.
Он любил ее за то, что мог осторожно гладить ее волосы и безрассудно бросаться в глаза-океаны.

Bill also had a plumber in to check out the pipes, and got my okay to replace some of the older plumbing and the well-pump.
Он также пригласил сантехника и получил мое согласие на замену некоторых труб и водяного насоса. Потом выяснилось, что надо менять и автономный генератор.

Shabby, with plumbing and electricity and light-pipes cut into the architecture, added as afterthoughts.

Only the classic golem looked like a clay man, and he was brought to life by means of runes inserted in a special opening (when it came to this detail, the magicians’ sense of humor usually plumbed the depths).
Вот только классический голем походил на глиняного человека и оживлялся посредством рун, вложенных в специальное отверстие (тут чувство юмора у магов обычно падало ниже плинтуса).

Day by day we plumbed the valleys, scaled the heights, and tramped the plateaus in search of the miraculous plant.
День за днем, мы измеряли долины, лазили ча вершины и топтали плоскогория в поисках целебного растения.

There are others around him: cray and menfish and Bastard John, he supposes, curious to plumb as far as they are able, but he cannot see them.
Он полагает, что вокруг него есть и другие - креи, рыболюди, Сукин Джон, которым тоже не терпится проверить, насколько глубоко они смогут опуститься, - но он их не видит.

My excuse to the highly skeptical elders was that, in order to be a successful priest, one had to plumb the depths of human nature as well as aspire to its heights.
И оправдывался перед весьма скептически настроенными старшими тем, что нельзя успешно служить Господу, только воспаряя к высотам натуры человеческой и не ныряя в ее глубины.

Naturally, we declined. We had the house on them, and before we were done refusing, that old 'dobe was plumb full of lead.
Жители ранчо были за нас, и пока мы отказывались, весь дом был изрешечен пулями.
