A mist of fine, drizzling rain enveloped the whole country, swallowing up every ray of light, every gleam of colour, and transforming everything into one smoky, leaden, indistinguishable mass.
Мелкий, тонкий дождь проницал всю окрестность, поглощая всякий отблеск и всякий оттенок и обращая всё в одну дымную, свинцовую, безразличную массу.

It was a short man, and seemed like an artisan who had been drinking; he was shabbily and scantily dressed; a cloth cap, soaked by the rain and with the brim half torn off, perched on his shaggy, curly head.
Человек росту невысокого и в роде как бы загулявшего мещанинишки; одет не тепло и неприглядно; на лохматой курчавой голове торчал суконный мокрый картуз, с полуоторванным козырьком.

For a moment Treebeard stood under the rain of the falling spring, and took a deep breath; then he laughed, and passed inside.
Древень постоял под струистой завесой, глубоко-глубоко вздохнул, рассмеялся и вошел в покой.

And she had this sweetly smelling note in her hand, and she was poised on the Garps' porch with it, when it began to rain.
Итак, она стояла на крыльце, держа в руке приторно пахнущий конвертик, который она как раз намеревалась опустить в почтовый ящик, когда пошел дождь.
