""'Tend to him in a minute!" he cried to Henfrey as he passed the prostrate Huxter, and, coming round the corner to join the tumult, was promptly knocked off his feet into an indecorous sprawl.
– Я сейчас доберусь до него! – крикнул он Хенфри, пробегая мимо распростертого на земле Хакстерса и огибая угол, чтобы присоединиться к толпе, гнавшейся за Невидимкой, но тут же был сшиблен с ног и шлепнулся на дорогу в самом неприглядном виде.

In the neighborhood of the prostrate things that new and lately unexplainable fetor had been wholly dominant; but by this time it ought to have largely given place to the nameless stench associated with those others.
Теперь должен преобладать прежний едкий запах, неизменно сопровождавший звездоголовых. Но все наоборот: ноздри захлестывала та самая вонь, она нарастала с каждой секундой, становясь все ядовитее.

Линтон лежал, распростертый, в новом приступе бессильного страха, возникшего, должно быть, под взглядом отца: ничего другого не было, чем могло быть вызвано такое унижение.
