Examples from texts

“And how can you be an official of the government after that, when you agree to demolishing churches, and marching on Petersburg armed with staves, and make it all simply a question of date?”
- Так какой же вы после этого чиновник правительства, если сами согласны ломать церкви и идти с дрекольем на Петербург, а всю разницу ставите только в сроке?

There were six men, all holding lanterns on poles, all bearing staves, all clad in the distinctive black cloak and black cocked hat of Fouche's police.
Все они держали в руках фонари и палки. Мужчины были в черных плащах и черных шляпах. Такую форму носили полицейские министра Фуше.

Then came a loud explosion of noise, as if a thunderclap had pealed between the staves, and a short gust of wind towards the gap between them, as if a sudden drawing in of air had occurred.
Раздался громкий взрыв, словно ударила молния, и воздух устремился в сторону посохов, словно втягиваясь в пространство между ними.

He blinked across the room to the rack of staves, his brown fingers curling around a quarterstaff.
Он засеменил к стойке с деревянными палками; покопавшись коричневыми пальцами в связке, вытащил оттуда две самые длинные.

They were on their way to the entrenchments that ringed the town—no shallow, hastily dug trenches, these, but earthworks, breast high, reinforced with sandbags and tipped with sharpened staves of wood.
Они направлялись к укреплениям, опоясывавшим город, — не мелким, наспех вырытым стрелковым гнездам, а земляным укреплениям почти в рост вышиной, обложенным мешками с песком, утыканным поверху острыми деревянными кольями.

Two of the outlaws, taking up their quarter-staves, and desiring Gurth to follow close in the rear, walked roundly forward along a by-path, which traversed the thicket and the broken ground adjacent to it.
Двое разбойников взяли свои дубины и повели Гурта окольной тропинкой через чащу вниз, к оврагу.

By the planks that were lashed along their staves they scrambled across and over the piles of shattered masonry into the courtyard beyond where none waited them, for all who watched here were dead or maimed.
По доскам, привязанным к перекладинам, осаждающие перебежали на другую сторону рва и, перебравшись через нагромождение камней, устремились во двор, где их никто не ждал, так как все сторожившие здесь были убиты или покалечены.

Within half an hour all the monkeys were dripping peach juice and could hardly move; several members of the staff, too, were surreptitiously wiping juice off their chins.
Через полчаса все обезьяны вымазались в персиковом соке и так наелись, что еле двигались. Да и некоторые служащие тоже потихоньку вытирали мокрый подбородок.
