Они отвешивали Тихону Ильичу низкие, смиренные поклоны, но теперь ему уже опять всё казалось жульничеством. - Смиренницы! А грызутся небось на ночёвках, как собаки! (И. Бунин, Деревня) — Crowds of female pilgrims, footsore and exhausted by the heat, were plodding down the road with measured step, leaning on tall staves. They bowed low and humbly to Tikhon Ilyich, but once again everything seemed a swindle to him. 'Huh, the saints! I'll bet they fight like cats and dogs when they stop for the night.'
