Some of them seized my cake, and carried it piecemeal away; others flew about my head and face, confounding me with the noise, and putting me in the utmost terror of their stings.Одни завладели моим пирогом и раскрошили его на кусочки, другие летали над головой, оглушая меня жужжанием и наводя неописуемый ужас своими жалами.Swift, Jonathan / Gulliver's travels into several remote nations of the worldСвифт, Джонатан / Путешествия ГулливераПутешествия ГулливераСвифт, Джонатан© Издательство "Правда", 1987Gulliver's travels into several remote nations of the worldSwift, Jonathan
