VI) — Мы должны сообщить вам, что этот приятный молодой человек на самом деле ставленник крупных воротил с железной хваткой, которые предпочитают держаться в тени.
Endymion Porter was one of the backroom boys of the Stuart monarchy. Without ever coming much into public notice, he seems to have enjoyed considerable influence in a quiet way. (‘Daily Worker’) — Эндимион Портер был крупным закулисным деятелем при Стюартах. Будучи мало известен широкой публике, он, по-видимому, пользовался большим влиянием.
