“Но, прослышав дня через два, что твердыня добродетели уже взята, философ начал давать больше простора своим желаниям: он не принадлежал к числу тех привередливых людей, которые не прикасаются к лакомству, потому что другой уже отведал его."
"История Тома Джонса, найденыша"
"But when the philosopher heard, a day or two afterwards, that the fortress of virtue had already been subdued, he began to give a large scope to his desires. His appetite was not of that squeamish kind which cannot feed on a dainty because another hath tasted it.”
