Frank called her a name which ladies seldom apply to one another in affection. In a moment the waiter brought her croissants, butter, jam and coffee.

Lena smiled bravely. | Arrow and Beatrice gave her a quick look. Everyone knows how fattening cocktails are. | In each napkin were two little antifat rusks. Lena gave a bright smile as she put them by the side of her plate. | Beatrice stifled a sigh, and reached for the saccharine. | The stony silence that followed this speech was only broken by the entrance of the butler. | She threw herself on her knees and enveloped what she could of Frank in her own plump arms. She wept and the mascara ran down her cheeks. | Beatrice only wanted peace and quiet. | But Beatrice suddenly thought she would like a meringue. | Lena smiled bravely. | The stony silence that followed this speech was only broken by the entrance of the butler. |

"Where's the cream, you fool?" she roared like a lioness at bay.

She began to eat (она начала есть). She ate gluttonously (она ела жадно: «прожорливо»). The place was beginning to fill up with bathers (место = кафе начало заполняться купальщиками) coming to enjoy a cocktail or two (пришедшими насладиться = судовольствиемвыпить коктейль или два) after having done their duty by the sun and the sea (после /того, как они/ исполнили свой долг перед солнцем и морем). Presently Arrow strolled along with Prince Roccamare (вскоре /и/ Эрроу прошествовала вместе с принцем Роккамаре; to stroll — прогуливаться, бродить, гулять/обычномедленно, праздно/). She had on a beautiful silk wrap (на ней была красивая шелковая накидка; to have on — бытьодетымв; wrap — шаль, платок; накидка, пелерина) which she held tightly round her with one hand (которую она стянула туго вокруг себя одной рукой; to hold — держать) in order to look as slim as possible (с тем, чтобы выглядеть как можно стройнее; possible — возможный) and she bore her head high (и она высоко держала свою голову; to bear — нести) so that he should not see her double chin (так, чтобы он не увидел ее двойной подбородок). She was laughing gaily (она весело смеялась). She felt like a girl (она чувствовала /себя/ словно девчонка). He had just told her (in Italian) (он только что сказал ей, на итальянском) that her eyes made the blue of the Mediterranean look like pea-soup (что ее глаза заставляют синеву Средиземного моря выглядеть /просто/ как гороховый суп). He left her to go into the men's room (он оставил ее, чтобы пойти в мужскую уборную: «комнату») to brush his sleek black hair (чтобы причесать свои гладкие/прилизанные черные волосы) and they arranged to meet in five minutes for a drink (и они договорились встретиться через пять минут, чтобы выпить по стаканчику; for — для, на; ради; drink — питье, напиток; алкогольныйнапиток). Arrow walked on to the woman's room (Эрроу пошла дальше в женскую уборную; to walk on — идтивперед; продолжатьидти) to put a little more rouge on her cheeks and a little more red on her lips (чтобы подрумянить щеки и подкрасить губы: «наложить немного больше румян на щеки и немного больше помады на губы»; red — красныйцвет; что-либо, имеющеекраснуюокраску). On her way she caught sight of Frank and Beatrice (по дороге она заметила: «поймала вид» Фрэнк и Беатрис). She stopped (она остановилась). She could hardly believe her eyes (она едва могла поверить своим глазам).

"My God!" she cried (Боже мой! закричала она). "You beasts (твари; you— ты, вы; употребляется также для усиления восклицания;beast— животное; зверь; скотина). You hogs (свиньи)." She seized a chair (она схватила стул). "Waiter (официант)."

Her appointment went clean out of her head (ее свидание начисто вылетело: «вышло» из ее головы). In the twinkling of an eye the waiter was at her side (в мгновение ока официант был возле нее: «у ее бока»).

"Bring me what these ladies are having," she ordered (принесите мне /то же самое/, что у этих леди, заказала она).
