Lou said to Raymond, ''Do you know, there's something in what they say

about the bog-oak statue in the church."

 

"There may be," said Raymond. "People say so."

Lou could not tell him how she had petitioned the removal of Oxford St.

John But when she got a letter from Henry Pierce to say he was improving,

she told Raymond.;'You see, we asked for Henry to get back the Faith, and

so he did. Now we ask for his recovery and he's improving."

 

"He's having good treatment (он получает хорошее лечение; treatment —

обращение; лечение, уход) at the sanatorium (в санатории)," Raymond said. But

he added (но он добавил), "Of course (конечно) we'll have to keep up the

prayers (мы должны будем продолжать молитвы; prayer — молитва,

просьба, мольба)." He himself (он сам), though not a rosary man (хотя и не

читал усердно молитвы: «не был человеком с четками»), knelt before the

Black Madonna (преклонял колени перед Черной Мадонной; to kneel —

становиться на колени, knee — колено) every Saturday evening after

Benediction (каждым субботним вечером, после Благословения) to pray for

Henry Pierce (чтобы помолиться за Генри Пирса).

Whenever they saw Oxford (каждый раз, когда они видели Оксфорда) he

was talking of leaving Whitney Clay (он говорил о том, что /собирается/

покинуть Уитни Клэй; to leave — оставлять, уезжать). Raymond said: "He's

making a big mistake (он делает большую ошибку; mistake — ошибка,

заблуждение) going to Manchester (что собирается в Манчестер). A big place

can be very lonely (большой город: «место» может быть очень одиноким;

lonely — одинокий, унылый). I hope he'll change his mind (я надеюсь, что он

передумает; to change — менять, переделывать; mind — ум, рассудок)."

"He won't (он не /передумает/)," said Lou, so impressed was she now (так

поражена была она теперь; to be impressed — быть под впечатлением, быть

потрясенным) by the powers of the Black Madonna (божественной силой

Черной Мадонны; power — сила, мощь, энергия). She was good and tired of

Oxford St. John (она основательно устала от Оксфорда Сент-Джона; good —

хороший, приятный; изрядный, основательный; tired — утомленный,

усталый) with his feet up on her cushions (с его /привычкой задирать/ свои

ноги на ее подушки), and calling himself a nigger (и называть себя ниггером).

"We'll miss him (мы будем скучать по нему)," said Raymond, "he’s such a

cheery big soul (он такой большой и веселый человек; soul — душа,

сущность)."

A rosary man, knelt before the Black Madonna every Saturday evening after
