Examples from texts

That "sublime and beautiful" weighs heavily on my mind at forty But that is at forty; then-oh, then it would have been different!
Это "прекрасное и высокое" сильно-таки надавило мне затылок в мои сорок лет; но это в мои сорок лет, а тогда — о, тогда было бы иначе!

So it is, that what is grand to some persons' eyes appears grotesque to others; and for certain sceptical persons, that step, which we have heard of, between the sublime and the ridiculous, is not visible.
Так уж повелось на свете: что одному представляется великим, другого - смешит; а иные скептики просто не замечают того расстояния в один шаг, которое, как мы слышали, отделяет великое от смешного.

At this sublime instant one of the hands gave the unexpected cry of "A sail!"
И в эту торжественную минуту неожиданно раздался чей-то возглас: — Парус!

You may laugh, but there were so many people drawn at the moment of their death, and so many who spoke such sublime words at that moment that I quite genuinely thought . . . well, I thought that by dying you were transported above yourself.
Ты смеешься, но на картинках было столько людей, изображенных в минуту смерти, и столько людей произносили в этот миг возвышенные слова, что я искренне верила… в общем, я думала, что в минуту агонии человек способен стать выше самого себя.

She ran away to indulge the inclination, leaving the tender and the sublime of pleasure to Harriet's share.
Не в силах более противиться ему, она убежала к себе, оставив радости более нежного и возвышенного свойства на долю Гарриет.

"An author has written AS YOU WILL: at once I drink to the health of "anyone you will" because I love all that is "sublime and beautiful."
Автор написал "как кому угодно"; тотчас же пью за здоровье "кого угодно", потому что люблю все "прекрасное и высокое".

I should then have turned everything into the sublime and the beautiful; in the nastiest, unquestionable trash, I should have sought out the sublime and the beautiful.
Я бы все на свете обратил тогда в прекрасное и высокое; в гадчайшей, бесспорной дряни отыскал бы прекрасное и высокое.

Noble women have indeed a sublime mission to fulfil to suffering and sickened hearts,-- the mission of the sister of charity who stanches the wound, of the mother who forgives a child.
Женщине избранной предназначена высокая роль возле страждущего и больного сердца: она становится сестрой милосердия и врачует его раны, делается матерью и все прощает своему ребенку.

- my-soul-bless-my-soul! - it is not in human language to say how the sublime Dante puzzles the pretty heads of all three!
И, помилуй меня господь, нет слов, чтобы передать, как труден божественный Данте для этих трех хорошеньких головок!

The gesture and attitude corresponded with the voice and looks, and altogether presented a spectacle which was at once beautiful and fearful; so much of the sublime had the energy of passion united with the Countess Amy's natural loveliness.
Жесты и поза соответствовали голосу и выражению лица, и все вместе являло зрелище одновременно восхитительное и устрашающее, настолько величественным и могучим был гнев, соединенный с природным очарованием графини Эми.

And of course Hugh had the most extraordinary, the most natural, the most sublime respect for the British aristocracy of any human being he had ever come across.
И верно - он в жизни не видывал, чтобы кто-то еще, кроме Хью, так истово, набожно, так торжественно преклонялся перед английской аристократией.

But I had a means of escape that reconciled everything-that was to find refuge in "the sublime and the beautiful," in dreams, of course.
Но у меня был выход, все примирявший, это — спасаться во "все прекрасное и высокое", конечно, в мечтах.

The more conscious I was of goodness and of all that was "sublime and beautiful," the more deeply I sank into my mire and the more ready I was to sink in it altogether.
Чем больше я сознавал о добре и о всем этом "прекрасном и высоком", тем глубже я и опускался в мою тину и тем способнее был совершенно завязнуть в ней.

I adored her face as it shone to me in the darkness. Suddenly I fancied I perceived a meaning in her words, a mysterious significance which made her to my eyes sublime.
Я любовался ее лицом, всплывшим во мраке, когда мне вдруг показалось, что я отгадал скрытый смысл ее слов, их тайное значение, и от этого Анриетта еще возвысилась в моих глазах.

And one thing more about it: Tao is sublime laziness. It does not believe in aggression, it does not believe in the male element.
И еще кое-что: Дао — это возвышенная лень, оно не верит в агрессивность, оно не верит в мужской элемент.
