6 the whirligig of time
превратности судьбы [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Clown: "...But do you remember? ‘Madam, why laugh you at such a barren rascal? an you smile not he's gagged.’ And thus the whirling of time brings in his revenges." (W. Shakespeare, ‘Twelfth Night’, act V, sc. 1) — Шут: "...Вы помните эти слова? "Сударыня, что вы находите смешного в этом безмозглом мерзавце? Если вы сами не улыбаетесь, у него и рот заклепан". Так-то коловращение времени несет с собой возмездие." (перевод М. Лозинского)
But now please observe how "the whirligig of time brings its revenges". (B. Shaw, ‘The Doctor's Dilemma’, ‘Preface on Doctors’) — Пожалуйста, обратите внимание на то, как "превратности судьбы влекут за собой отмщение".

7 ginger shall be hot in the mouth
≈ человеку присуще влечение к удовольствиям, человека влечёт к удовольствиям [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Sir Toby: "...Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?" Clown: "Yes, by saint Anne; and ginger shall be hot i' the mouth too." (W. Shakespeare, ‘Twelfth Night’, act II, sc. 3) — Сэр Тоби: "...Или ты думаешь, что если ты добродетелен, так уж не должно быть ни пирожков, ни пива?" Шут: "Да, клянусь святой Анной, и рот должно обжигать имбирем" (перевод М. Лозинского)
But if our generation flatters itself that it discovered sex, it is wrong. Were there no cakes and ale before girls bobbed their hair and smoked cigarettes? Yes, by Saint Anne, and ginger was hot i' the mouth too. (G. Gould, ‘The English Novel of Today’, ch. IV) — Напрасно наше поколение кичится тем, что оно открыло секс. Это не так. В чем, в чем, а в радостях жизни наши деды знали толк, когда стриженых девиц с сигаретой во рту еще и в помине не было. Клянусь святой Анной, и они умели любить.
