      Зате́м она́ усе́лась на дива́не, накры́лась свои́м мерино́совым платко́м и уже́ не дви́гнула бо́лее ни гла́зом, ни бро́вью.
      Zatém oná usélasʹ na diváne, nakrýlasʹ svoím merinósovym platkóm i užé ne dvígnula bóleje ni glázom, ni bróvʹju.
      Then she seated herself upon the sofa, wrapping her merino shawl about her, and sat without moving an eye or an eyebrow.
