141 smb.'s evil genius
злой гений кого-л.; см. тж. smb.'s good geniusAnd this, like every other trouble and anxiety, I have had of late times, springs from that old dotard and his darling child - two wretched feeble wanderers! I'll be their evil genius yet. (Ch. Dickens, ‘The Old Curiosity Shop’, ch. LXVII) — Кто же причина и этой, и всех прочих неприятностей и бед, которые постигли меня за последнее время? Выживший из ума старик и его дражайшая внучка - двое жалких, бездомных бродяг. Они еще почувствуют, кто является их злым гением.
