After that he began to dream of the long yellow beach (после этого ему начал сниться длинный желтый пляж) and he saw the first of the lions come down onto it in the early dark (и он увидел, как первый лев: «первый из львов» вышел на него /на пляж/ в ранних сумерках) and then the other lions came (а затем вышли остальные львы) and he rested his chin on the wood of the bows (и он оперся подбородком на доски =

Then be dreamed that he was in the village on his bed and there was a norther and he was very cold and his right arm was asleep because his head had rested on it instead of a pillow.
After that he began to dream of the long yellow beach and he saw the first of the lions come down onto it in the early dark and then the other lions came and he rested his chin on the wood of the bows where the ship lay anchored with the evening off-shore breeze and he waited to see if there would be more lions and he was happy.
The moon had been up for a long time but he slept on and the fish pulled on steadily and the boat moved into the tunnel of clouds.
He woke with the jerk of his right fist coming up against his face (он проснулся от рывка своего правого кулака, ударившего его в лицо) and the line burning out through his right hand (и от лесы, которая, обжигая правую ладонь, уходила в воду). He had no feeling of his left hand (он не чувствовал левую руку) but he braked all he could with his right (но он затормозил /движение лесы/ изо всех сил правой) and the line rushed out (и леса стремительно уходила;

He woke with the jerk of his right fist coming up against his face and the line burning out through his right hand. He had no feeling of his left hand but he braked all he could with his right and the line rushed out. Finally his left hand found the line and he leaned back against the line and now it burned his back and his left hand, and his left hand was taking all the strain and cutting badly. He looked back at the coils of line and they were feeding smoothly. Just then the fish jumped making a great bursting of the ocean and then a heavy fall. Then he jumped again and again and the boat was going fast although line was still racing out and the old man was raising the strain to breaking point. He had been pulled down tight onto the bow and his face was in the cut slice of dolphin and he could not move.
