"пасть льва", опасное место [этим. библ. Psalms XXII, 21]She had an ally in the lion's mouth: a spy in the friend's camp; a faithful traitor! Thus mixing her metaphors she scurried back to her aunt's house. (J. Galsworthy, ‘Flowering Wilderness’, ch. XV) — У нее есть союзник в самой пасти льва, соглядатай в дружеском стане, преданный предатель! И, нарочно путая все метафоры, Динни спешила назад к дому тетки.
