      У плота́ стоя́ли две больши́е, тяжёлые ло́дки, угрю́мого ви́да, вро́де тех новозела́ндских пиро́г, кото́рые мо́жно ви́деть в кни́гах Жю́ля Ве́рна.
      U plotá stojáli dve bolʹšíje, tjažólyje lódki, ugrjúmovo vída, vróde tex novozelándskix piróg, kotóryje móžno vídetʹ v knígax Žúlja Vérna.
      At the landing-stage stood two heavy big boats of a forbidding aspect, like the New Zealand pirogues which one may see in the works of Jules Verne.
