Единоборство Роланда и Оливера, силы которых были равны, не привело к победе ни одного из них]...remember, you have kept a secret from me, and if I give thee not a Rowland [= Roland] for thine Oliver, my name is not Dickon sludge! (W. Scott, ‘Kenilworth’, ch. V) —...не забудь, что у тебя был секрет от меня. Мы еще сквитаемся, не будь я Дикон Сладж!
Comforted... by the thought that he had given Mrs. Carr a Roland for her Oliver. (H. R. Haggard, ‘Dawn’, ch. XXXIII) — Его утешала... мысль, что он удачно отпарировал слова миссис Карр.
I had to bite my lip to prevent myself from laughter. What he said had a hateful truth in it, and another defect of my character is that I enjoy the company of those however depraved who can give me a Roland for my Oliver. (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Moon and Sixpense’, ch. XL) — Я закусил губу, чтобы не расхохотаться. Стрикленд высказал роковую истину. Еще одним недостатком моего характера является то, что мне нравятся люди пусть дурные, но которые за словом в карман не лезут.
