16 hangi
m. a body hanging on a gallows (hann settist undir hanga).* * *a, m. a law term, a body hanging on a gallows, Fms. v. 212: the mythol. phrase, sitja, setjask undir hanga, to sit under a gallows, of Odin, in order to acquire wisdom or knowledge of the future;—for this superstition see Yngl. S. ch. 7;—whence Odin is called hanga-guð, hanga-dróttinn, hanga-týr, the god or lord of the hanged, Edda 14, 49, Lex. Poët.; varðat ek fróðr und forsum | fór ek aldregi at göldrum | … nam ek eigi Yggjar feng und hanga, I became not wise under waterfalls, I never dealt in witchcraft, I did not get the share of Odin (i. e. the poetical gift) under the gallows, i. e. I am no adept in poetry, Jd. 3 (MS., left out in the printed edition). According to another and, as it seems, a truer and older myth, Odin himself was represented as hangi, hanging on the tree Ygg-drasil, and from the depths beneath taking up the hidden mystery of wisdom, Hm. 139; so it is possible that his nicknames refer to that; cp. also the curious tale of the blind tailor in Grimm’s Märchen, No. 107, which recalls to mind the heathen tale of the one-eyed Odin sitting under the gallows. -

18 мерзость запустения
библ.the abomination of desolation; desolation and neglect; lying wasteПод игом грязи и мерзости запустения, под бременем сумасшедшей скуки и бессмысленного безделья, люди как-то рассеялись, замолчали и ушли в себя: точно сидели под колпаками, из которых постепенно выкачивался воздух. (А. Блок, Интеллигенция и революция) — Under the yoke of filth and the abomination of desolation, under the burden of crazy boredom and non-sensical idleness, human beings somehow became scattered, fell silent and withdrew into themselves: as though each were sitting under his own separate bell-glass from which the air was gradually being pumped out.
В избе его красный квадрат заката дрожал на грязной запущенной стене... Пахло мышами, пустотой, мерзостью запустения. (В. Аксёнов, Дикой) — In the cottage a red square of the sunset quivered on the dust-covered wall... The house smelt of mice, of emptiness, desolation and neglect.
