Candle wax and unwashed human—and the cold, fetid reek of Mirovitch, dust and magick and feces and chalk and aftershave.
Свечами, немытым человеческим телом — и стояла холодная, мерзкая вонь, которую издавал Мирович, вонь от пыли, магии, фекалий, мела и крема после бритья.

Beside it were the crumbling remains of the cottages of the miners, driven away no doubt by the foul reek of the surrounding swamp.
Рядом с ним стояли развалившиеся лачуги рудокопов, которых, вероятно, выгнали отсюда ядовитые болотные испарения.

Pushing open a swinging door, he made his way into the crowded bar, where the reek of bad spirits and the smell of squalid humanity seemed to Tom to be even more horrible than the effluvium of the grease-laden hold.
Он толкнул вращающуюся дверь, и они очутились в переполненном народом баре. Том вдохнул удушливый запах винного перегара, нищеты и грязи человеческой, и он показался ему еще ужасней, чем миазмы, поднимавшиеся из трюма корабля.

The awful reek of her almost got to Bensenhaver, but he kept his face very close to her, where he could hear her.
От нее исходила такая ужасная вонь, что Бензенхавер едва стоял на ногах, но не отстранялся, не отворачивал лицо, чтобы расслышать ее слабый голос.

He again didn't ask any useless questions, just stood watchful as the pressure behind the bloodspray lessened. The tide of blood mixed with the ectoplasm, and I smelled the reek of released bowels.
Он по-прежнему не задавал мне вопросов, лишь молча смотрел и ждал, когда иссякнет река крови и эктоплазмы. В воздухе противно запахло блевотиной.

The rattle of the engines, the reek of oil and paint, and a very familiar sound in the next cabin roused him to his new inheritance.
Шум машины, и запах смазочного масла и свежей краски, и знакомые звуки в соседней каюте пробудили его к новой жизни.

I was, perhaps, more used to seeing it from this comprehensive view-point when it was veiled and softened by night; now it came out in all its weekday reek, under a clear afternoon sun.
Вероятно, я просто привык видеть широкий ландшафт, открывающийся с этого места, задернутым смягчающим покровом ночи, а теперь видел его при будничном свете яркого послеполуденного солнца.

But he might be gone away some time, or he might be lying out on the mountain-side keeping watch, and still I expect smokes and steams would come out of the gates: all the halls within must be filled with his foul reek."
- Если бы даже дракон улетел или притаился где -нибудь на одном из склонов, подкарауливая добычу, дым и пар, наверное, все равно выходили бы наружу. Гора изнутри, вероятно, заполнена его зловонными испарениями.
