     Бе́нтлі Дрэ́мль быў ве́льмі хму́ры юна́к. Ён на́ват за кні́гу бра́ўся так, як бы́ццам а́ўтар яе́ абра́зіў яго асабі́ста; з такою-ж ласка́васцю адносіўся ён і да сваі́х знаёмых.

     Bjéntli Drémlʹ byŭ vjélʹmi xmúry junák. Jon návat za kníhu bráŭsja tak, jak býccam áŭtar jajé abráziŭ jahó asabísta; z takóju-ž laskávascju adnósiŭsja jon i da svaíx znajómyx.

     [original: Bentley Drummle, who was so sulky a fellow that he even took up a book as if its writer had done him an injury, did not take up an acquaintance in a more agreeable spirit.]
