Yegorushka took off his hat and did not say a word, but the stew lost all savour for him, and he did not hear Panteley and Vassya intervening on his behalf.

Ah me! sweetmeats have lost their savour for me, however they may rejoice my young ones from the nursery, and the perfume of claret palls upon old noses!
Но, увы, какую бы радость ни доставляли сласти нашим малышам, сам я утратил к ним всякий вкус, и аромат кларета уже не щекочет мои старые ноздри.

'My father, before all, and above all, desired to live, and lived.... Perhaps he had a presentiment that he would not have long to enjoy the 'savour' of life: he died at forty-two.
Отец мой прежде всего и больше всего хотел жить - и жил... Быть может, он предчувствовал, что ему не придется долго пользоваться "штукой" жизни: он умер сорока двух лет.

Specially hath this proud man extended his glove over the children of Judah, as holy David over Edom, holding the murder of a Jew to be all offering of as sweet savour as the death of a Saracen.
Этот гордый человек занес свою железную руку над головами сынов Иудеи, как древний Давид над Эдомом, считая убиение еврея столь же угодным богу, как и смерть сарацина.

I saw the verses; there is little savour in them, and her Grace has been already crammed full with such poetical compliments.
Я видел эти стихи: в них мало оригинальности, и ее величество уже по горло сыта такими поэтическими комплиментами.

He could also taste it coming with a more and more pronounced savour, bringing the healthful acridity of the open air, holding to his lips a feast of sugary aromatics, sour fruits, and milky shoots.
И он обонял его все отчетливее, вдыхая в себя здоровую горечь свежего воздуха, потчевавшего его одновременно и сладкими благовониями цветов, и кислым запахом плодов, и терпким ароматом мелочно‑белого древесного сока.

'Take for yourself what you can, and don't be ruled by others; to belong to oneself - the whole savour of life lies in that,' he said to me one day.
"Сам бери, что можешь, а в руки не давайся; самому себе принадлежать - в этом вся штука жизни", - сказал он мне однажды.

The Press, he held, was the only possible salt of contemporary life, and if the salt had lost its savour... !
Пресса, утверждал он, была единственной солью, возможной для современной жизни, но что поделаешь, если эта соль потеряла свою силу!..

It had a success only with the minority which spends its life in savouring all sorts of theories and ruminating over them; the majority did not understand it.
Оно имело успех только у меньшинства, которое проводит свою жизнь в штудировании и смаковании всяких учений, большинство же не понимало его.

She was sixteen; how strange she looked, with her rather elongated face! she savoured of the open air, of the grass, of mother earth.
Ей было всего шестнадцать лет; он не мог забыть ее странного, чуть продолговатого лица; от всего ее существа так и веяло вольным воздухом, травами, землею.

"Ah!" said M. Bouc. "The speakeasy." He pronounced the word with care, savouring it.

He gave to her that impassioned cult which to Brother Archangias savoured of heresy.
Он оказывал царице небесной такое страстное поклонение, что брат Арканжиа чуял в этом дух ареои.
