His colossal fortune, with the exception of the comparatively small portion wasted in the first wanton period of his inheritance, went to his brother, to the great satisfaction of the latter.
Всё огромное состояние его, кроме некоторой, сравнительно говоря, весьма малой доли, истраченной в первоначальном кутеже, перешло к братцу его, Семену Семеновичу, к большому удовольствию сего последнего.

The wind entered in slight puffs, rustling the curtains to and fro; but she was quite unconscious of it. Yet the shawl had slipped off her shoulders, and her hair had become unwound, some wanton tresses sweeping down to her hips.
Легкие порывы ветра колебали занавески. Элен не ощущала холода, хотя шаль соскользнула с ее плеч, приоткрыв грудь; прическа ее растрепалась, своевольные пряди волос беспорядочно ниспадали до самой поясницы.

I cut off my superfluous and unnecessary desires, I subdue my proud and wanton will and chastise it with obedience, and with God's help I attain freedom of spirit and with it spiritual joy.
Отсекаю от себя потребности лишние и ненужные, самолюбивую и гордую волю мою смиряю и бичую послушанием, и достигаю тем, с помощию божьей, свободы духа, а с нею и веселья духовного!
