She had laid in several chaldrons of live coals and was prepared to heap them on the heads of her enemies. (Ch. Dickens, ‘Martin Chuzzlewit’, ch. LIV) — Она была преисполнена снисходительности и всепрощения. Она была готова пристыдить всех своих врагов, воздав им добром за зло.
Oh! Mamma, you're too kind to me! I don't deserve it. It's like heaping coals of fire on my head after the way I've gone on. (A. J. Cronin, ‘Hatter's Castle’, book II, ch. 8) — О мама, ты слишком добра ко мне! Я этого не заслужил. Ведь я так себя плохо вел. Твоя доброта жжет мне совесть, как раскаленные уголья.
