3. 'I don't feel sharp (мне не очень хочется; sharp — острый, резкий),' growled

Morgan (проворчал Морган). 'Thinkin' o' Flint — I think it were — as done me

(размышление о Флинте, думаю, это повлияло на меня = как вспомнил

Флинта, так сразу аппетит отбило).'

4. 'Ah, well, my son, you praise your stars he's dead (что ж, сын мой, благодари

свою

судьбу, что он мертв; to praise — хвалить; star — звезда),' said Silver.

5. 'He were an ugly devil (он был безобразным дьяволом),' cried a third pirate,

with a shudder (воскликнул третий пират, вздрагивая); 'that blue in the face, too

1. Silver, as he sat, took certain bearings with his compass.

2. 'There are three "tall trees" ' said he, 'about in the right line from Skeleton

Island. "Spy-glass Shoulder," I take it, means that lower p'int there. It's

child's play to find the stuff now. I've half a mind to dine first.'

был синим). That's a true word (это верное слово = именно так и было).'

2. Ever since they had found the skeleton and got upon this train of thought (с того

времени, как они нашли скелет и стали следовать этому ходу мыслей), they

had spoken lower and lower, and they had almost got to whispering by now (они

говорили

все тише и тише, и почти перешли на шепот теперь), so that the

sound of their talk hardly interrupted the silence of the wood (так что звук их

разговора едва нарушал тишину леса). All of a sudden, out of the middle of the

trees in front of us (вдруг из гущи деревьев = из рощи перед нами), a thin, high,

trembling voice struck up the well-known air and words (тонкий, высокий

дрожащий голос затянул хорошо знакомую песню и /такие/ слова; to strike up

— начинать(ся) /о музыке/; запеть; air — воздух; мелодия, песня): —

1. I never have seen men more dreadfully affected than the pirates (я никогда не

видел людей, ужаснее напуганных, чем эти пираты; to affect — действовать,

влиять; волновать, поражать). The colour went from their six faces like
