Английский с Эдгаром По. Падение дома Ашеров

“I-n-d-e-e-d-!” ejaculated the Baron (неуже-е-ели! – воскликнул барон), as if slowly and deliberately impressed with the truth of some exciting idea (будто медленно и постепенно пораженный истиной какой-то будоражащей мысли; deliberately – нарочно, намеренно; медленно, не торопясь; to impress – впечатлять, внушать, поражать).

“Indeed;” repeated the vassal (в самом деле, – повторил вассал).

“Shocking!” said the youth, calmly (поразительно! – сказал юноша спокойно), and turned quietly into the château (и молча направился в замок).

“It is indeed true, my lord; and, to a noble of your name, will be, I imagine, no unwelcome intelligence.”

A rapid smile shot over the countenance of the listener. “How died he?”

“In his rash exertions to rescue a favorite portion of his hunting stud, he has himself perished miserably in the flames.”

From this date a marked alteration took place (с этого дня: «даты» явное изменение произошло: «взяло место») in the outward demeanor of the dissolute young Baron Frederick von Metzengerstein (во внешнем поведении распутного юного барона Фредерика фон Метценгерштейна). Indeed, his behavior disappointed every expectation (действительно, его поведение обманывало все ожидания: «разочаровывало каждое ожидание»), and proved little in accordance with the views of many a manoeuvering mamma (и оказывалось мало в соответствии со взглядами = и мало соответствовало взглядам многих интриганок-маменек: «маневрирующих»; many a mamma = many mammas

); while his habits and manner, still less than formerly (а его привычки и манера еще меньше, чем прежде), offered any thing congenial with those of the neighboring aristocracy (предлагали = являли что-либо родственное привычкам и манерам соседнего дворянства; those – эти, те; зд.: слово-заменитель вместо «привычки и манера»).
