The roar dwindled to a mutter, to a breath, to a hiss; the sand slipped aside, booming underneath the wanderer; and smoothed itself over, and was silent again, and still.
Шелест перешел в бурчание, дыхание, шипение, песок разлетался в стороны, затем успокоился. Вокруг снова стало тихо.

От него осталась лишь ниточка крошечных темных силуэтов да дымное желтое зарево, которое вскоре превратилось в расплывчатое желтое пятно на горизонте и, наконец вовсе исчезло в ярком свете нового дня…

The great revolving drum of the Residential Station slowly expanded ahead of us: the untidy collection of domes and pressure-corridors that had been my home for so long dwindled astern.

Men call it Deadmen's Dike, and they fear to tread there. For the folk of Arnor dwindled, and their foes devoured them, and their lordship passed, leaving only green mounds in the grassy hills.
Его именуют Мертвым Форностом, и люди опасаются туда забредать, потому что Враги рассеяли арнорцев и от их когда-то неприступных крепостей остались лишь поросшие полынью курганы.
