The War of the Worlds: Chapter 1 (2)

For my own part, I was much occupied in learning to ride the bicycle, and busy upon a series of papers discussing the probable developments of moral ideas as civilisation progressed.

One night (the first missile then could scarcely have been 10,000,000 miles away) I went for a walk with my wife. It was starlight and I explained the Signs of the Zodiac to her, and pointed out Mars, a bright dot of light creeping zenithward, towards which so many telescopes were pointed. It was a warm night. Coming home, a party of excursionists from Chertsey or Isleworth passed us singing and playing music. There were lights in the upper windows of the houses as the people went to bed. From the railway station in the distance came the sound of shunting trains, ringing and rumbling, softened almost into melody by the distance. My wife pointed out to me the brightness of the red, green, and yellow signal lights hanging in a framework against the sky. It seemed so safe and tranquil.

For my own part, I was much occupied in learning to ride the bicycle, and busy upon a series of papers discussing the probable developments of moral ideas as civilisation progressed. Ze swojej strony byłem bardzo zajęty nauką jazdy na rowerze i serią artykułów omawiających prawdopodobny rozwój idei moralnych w miarę postępu cywilizacji.

One night (the first missile then could scarcely have been 10,000,000 miles away) I went for a walk with my wife. Pewnej nocy (pierwszy pocisk rakietowy był wtedy ledwie 10 000 000 mil stąd) poszedłem z żoną na spacer. It was starlight and I explained the Signs of the Zodiac to her, and pointed out Mars, a bright dot of light creeping zenithward, towards which so many telescopes were pointed. W świetle gwiazd wyjaśniłem jej znaki zodiaku i wskazałem na Marsa, jasną kropkę światła pełznącą zenitalnie, w kierunku której skierowanych było tak wiele teleskopów. It was a warm night. Coming home, a party of excursionists from Chertsey or Isleworth passed us singing and playing music. Voltando para casa, um grupo de excursionistas de Chertsey ou Isleworth passou por nós cantando e tocando música. There were lights in the upper windows of the houses as the people went to bed. W górnych oknach domów paliły się światła, gdy ludzie kładli się spać. From the railway station in the distance came the sound of shunting trains, ringing and rumbling, softened almost into melody by the distance. De la gare, au loin, venait le bruit des trains qui manœuvraient, sonnant et grondant, adouci presque en mélodie par la distance. Ze stacji kolejowej w oddali dochodził dźwięk manewrujących pociągów, dzwonienie i dudnienie, złagodzone niemal do melodii przez odległość. My wife pointed out to me the brightness of the red, green, and yellow signal lights hanging in a framework against the sky. Ma femme m'a fait remarquer la luminosité des feux de signalisation rouges, verts et jaunes suspendus dans un cadre contre le ciel. Moja żona zwróciła mi uwagę na jasność czerwonych, zielonych i żółtych świateł sygnalizacyjnych zawieszonych w ramie na tle nieba. It seemed so safe and tranquil. |||||спокойный
