Dickens, ‘Oliver Twist’, ch. L) — - Будьте вы прокляты! - крикнул этот отъявленный негодяй... угрожая толпе. - Делайте что хотите! Я еще вас проведу!
‘you ugly dog,’ he was thinking, ‘you think you've got something up your sleeve. Well, do your worst!’ (J. Galsworthy, ‘Caravan’, ‘A Stoic’) — "Эх, скотина, - думал он, - ты воображаешь, что разузнал что-то. Ну что ж, действуй, вреди, как только можешь".
Lady Chiltern: "It is not true! Robert! It is not true!" Mrs. Cheveley (pointing at him with outstretched finger): "Look at him! Can he deny it? Does he dare to?" Sir Robert Chiltern: "Go! Go at once. You have done your worst now." (O. Wilde, ‘An Ideal Husband’, act II) — Леди Чилтерн: "Это неправда! Роберт! Это неправда!" Миссис Чивли (указывая на него пальцем): "Посмотрите на него! Что же он не отрицает, а? Не смеет!" Сэр Роберт Чилтерн: "Уходите. Сейчас же. Вы уже сделали все, что могли."
