         ♦ Впоследствии она сама попала за колючую проволоку, хлебнула горя, но то, как и почему она не простилась с отцом, которого больше не увидела, не могло не остаться пятном на её душе (Мандельштам 2). Later she wound up behind barbed wire herself and had her own share of suffering, but she never ceased to be troubled in her mind at not having said goodbye to her father, whom she never saw again (2a).
         ♦ "В войну [мадам Бранд] попала в Германию, горя, я думаю, не пригубила, а хлебнула взахлёб" (Михайловская 1). "During the war she [Madame Brand] found herself in Germany, where, I think, she had her share of grief" (1a).
         ♦ "Нас в этих ротах недаром смертниками звали. До одного выкашивало. Как я выжил? Как я выжил? Однако, вообрази, весь этот кровавый ад был счастьем по сравнению с ужасами концлагеря..." - "Да, брат, хлебнул ты горя" (Пастернак 1). "They called our company the death squad. It was practically wiped out. How and why I survived, I don't know. And yet - would you believe it-all that utter hell was nothing, it was bliss compared to the horrors of the concentration camp...." "Yes, poor fellow. You've taken a lot" (1a).
