      Generalʹša, vpročem, i sama ne terjala appetita, i obyknovenno, v polovine pervovo, prinimala učastije v obilʹnom zavtrake, poxožem počti na obed, vmeste s dočerʹmi.
      Mrs. Epanchin had a fair appetite herself, and generally took her share of the capital mid-day lunch which was always served for the girls, and which was nearly as good as a dinner.
