The slave trade would still be a British trade if it had not been forbid den by law through the efforts of British philanthropists who, with their eyes in the ends of the earth, did not know that British children were being overworked and beaten in British factories as cruelly as the Negro children in the plantations. (B. Shaw, ‘The Intelligent Woman's Guide to Socialism and Capitalism’, ch. 37) — Англичане продолжали бы заниматься работорговлей, если бы английские филантропы не добились, чтобы она была запрещена законом. Эти люди видели, что делается в отдаленных уголках земли, но не замечали, что у них под носом английских детей морят голодом и избивают не менее жестоко, чем негритянских ребятишек на плантациях.
As for dealers they have come from the ends of the earth. (J. B. Priestley, ‘The Good Companions’, book I, ch. II) — Что касается торговцев, то они понаехали издалека.
