Английский язык с Конаном-варваром

Balthus' knees trembled as he followed Conan (колени Балтуса задрожали, когда он последовал за Конаном). But there was no hint of weakness in the long easy stride of the Cimmerian (но не было /и/ намека на усталость в широком легком шаге киммерийца). There was a kinship between him and the great gaunt brute that glided beside him (было родство между ним и огромным поджарым животным, которое скользило возле него). Slasher no longer growled with his head to the trail (Задира больше не рычал, с /его/ головой, /склоненной/ к тропе). The way was clear before them (путь был чист перед ними). The yelling on the river came faintly to them, but Balthus believed the fort was still holding (крики на реке доносились слабо до них, но Балтус верил, /что/ форт еще держится). Conan halted suddenly, with an oath (Конан вдруг остановился с ругательством = ругнувшись).

He showed Balthus a trail that led north from the road (он показал Балтусу тропу, которая вела на север от дороги). It was an old trail, partly grown with new young growth, and this growth had recently been broken down (это была старая тропа, частично заросшая новой молодой порослью, и эта поросль недавно была сломана). Balthus realized this fact more by feel than sight, though Conan seemed to see like a cat in the dark (Балтус осознал этот факт больше ощущением, нежели зрением, хотя Конана, казалось, видит как кошка в темноте). The Cimmerian showed him where broad wagon tracks turned off the main trail, deeply indented in the forest mold (киммериец показал ему, где широкие следы телеги свернули с главной тропы, глубоко отпечатавшиеся в лесном рыхлом грунте).

"Settlers going to the licks after salt," he grunted (поселенцы едут на солончаки за солью, — проворчал он). "They're at the edges of the marsh, about nine miles from here (они на краю болота, около девяти миль отсюда). Blast it (проклятие)! They'll be cut off and butchered to a man (они будут отрезаны и убиты все до последнего: «до одного человека»)! Listen (слушай)! One man can warn the people on the road (один человек может предупредить людей на дороге). Go ahead and wake them up and herd them into Velitrium (иди вперед и буди их, и гони их в Велитриум). I'll go and get the men gathering the salt (я пойду и заберу людей, собирающих соль). They'll be camped by the licks (они станут лагерем у солончаков). We won't come back to the road (мы не будем возвращаться на дорогу). We'll head straight through the woods (мы пойдем напрямую через лес)."
