But he was by now muttering mechanically, he was too much crushed by what he had learned, and was completely thrown out of his reckoning.

He kept walking up and down, absorbed in himself and muttering something to himself with a diabolical but triumphant smile.
Он всё еще так же расхаживал взад и вперед, углубившись в себя и бормоча что-то себе под нос с ехидною, но торжествующею улыбкой.

Several times Bersenyev got up from his little sofa, approached the bed on tip-toe, and listened with a heavy heart to his disconnected muttering.

Thor and Bjarn beamed at him with such fellowship and good will that he became impatient with gloomy Skapti beside him, who kept muttering and worrying until it was a wonder he didn't spoil the entire celebration
Тор и Бьярн улыбались ему так дружески и добродушно, что его начал раздражать мрачный Скапти, который сидел рядом и так ворчал и тревожился, что только чудом не испортил всего торжества.

Sometimes he would pace up and down tapping the blade against his palm, muttering to himself, reciting poetry. T. S. Eliot mostly, “The Waste Land.”
Иногда он расхаживал взад-вперед, постукивая лезвием ножа по ладони, бормоча чьи-нибудь стихи себе под нос, чаще всего Элиота, какую-нибудь «Бесплодную землю».
