"Clara's making me scenes about you (Клара устраивает мне сцены из-за вас).
She's found out (она догадалась, что) I'm in love with you (я люблю вас). It's
only common sense (это будет очень разумным: «это просто здравый смысл»)
that we shouldn't see one another any more (что мы не будем видеть друг друга
больше)."
This time (на этот раз) Julia slightly shook her head (Джулия слегка покачала
головой). She gave a sob (она всхлипнула). She leant back in the chair (она
откинулась /назад/ в кресле) and turned her head aside (и отвернулась:
«повернула голову в сторону»). Her whole body (все ее тело) seemed to express
the hopelessness of her grief (казалось выражало безысходность:
«безнадежность» ее горя). Flesh and blood couldn't stand it (/ни один/ живой
человек не мог вынести этого; flesh and blood — люди, род человеческий,
плоть и кровь). Charles stepped forward (Чарльз сделал шаг вперед) and
sinking to his knees (и, опустившись на колени) took that broken woebegone
body in his arms (обнял ее: «то» разбитое /горем/, безутешное тело; to take
smb. in one's arms — брать кого-либо на руки, обнимать кого-либо).
"For God's sake (/о,/ ради Бога) don't look so unhappy (не будь: «не выгляди»
так несчастна). I can't bear it (я не могу этого вынести). Oh, Julia, Julia, I love
you so much (о, Джулия, Джулия, я так сильно тебя люблю), I can't make you
so miserable (я не могу делать тебя такой несчастной). I'll accept anything (я
согласен на все = я приму все). I'll make no demands on you (я ничего не
потребую от тебя /взамен/; demand — требование, настойчивая просьба)."

"For God's sake don't look so unhappy. I can't bear it. Oh, Julia, Julia, I love
You so much, I can't make you so miserable. I'll accept anything. I'll make no
demands on you."
She turned her tear-stained face to him (она повернула свое заплаканное лицо к
нему; tear-stained — со следами слез, stain — пятно) ("God, what a sight I must
look now (Боже, ну и пугалом же я сейчас выгляжу)") and gave him her lips (и
подставила ему: «дала» свои губы). He kissed her tenderly (он поцеловал ее
нежно). It was the first time (это был первый раз) he had ever kissed her (/когда/
он целовал ее).
"I don't want to lose you (я не хочу потерять вас)," she muttered huskily (она
произнесла чуть слышно сиплым /голосом/; to mutter — бормотать,
говорить невнятно).
"Darling, darling (дорогая, дорогая)!"
"It'll be just as it was before (все будет, как и прежде: «как было раньше»)?"
"Just (как прежде: «точно»)."
She gave a deep sigh of contentment (она издала глубокий вздох
удовлетворения) and for a minute or two rested in his arms (и пару минут:
«минуту или две» оставалась неподвижной в его объятьях: «отдыхала в его
руках»). When he went away (и когда он ушел) she got up and looked in the
glass (она встали и посмотрелась в зеркало).
"You rotten bitch (/ты/ отвратительная сука)," she said to herself (сказала она
себе).
