Английский с Эдгаром По. Падение дома Ашеров

“Not hear it? – yes, I hear it, and have heard it. Long – long – long – many minutes, many hours, many days, have I heard it – yet I dared not – oh, pity me, miserable wretch that I am! – I dared not – I dared not speak! We have put her living in the tomb! Said I not that my senses were acute? I now tell you that I heard her first feeble movements in the hollow coffin. I heard them – many, many days ago – yet I dared not – I dared not speak! And now – tonight – Ethelred – ha! ha! – the breaking of the hermit’s door, and the death-cry of the dragon, and the clangour of the shield! – say, rather, the rending of her coffin, and the grating of the iron hinges of her prison, and her struggles within the coppered archway of the vault!

Oh whither shall I fly (о, куда мне лететь)

? Will she not be here anon (разве она не будет здесь скоро)? Is she not hurrying to upbraid me for my haste (не поспешает ли она, чтобы выбранить меня за мою спешку)? Have I not heard her footstep on the stair

(не слышал ли я ее шага на ступеньке)? Do I not distinguish that heavy and horrible beating of her heart (не различаю ли я это тяжелое и ужасное биение ее сердца)? MADMAN!” here he sprang furiously to his feet, and shrieked out his syllables, as if in the effort he were giving up his soul (безумец! – здесь он вскочил яростно на ноги и выкрикнул свои слоги =

слова, словно этим усилием он выплескивал свою душу; to spring – прыгать; to give up – отдавать) – “MADMAN! I TELL YOU THAT SHE NOW STANDS WITHOUT THE DOOR

(безумец! я говорю вам, что она теперь стоит за дверью; without – без; снаружи)!”
