14 a tale that is told
нечто эфемерное, преходящее, кажущееся из-за удалённости во времени или пространстве призрачным, нереальным, несущественным; ≈ дела давно минувших дней, было и быльём поросло [этим. библ. Psalms XC, IX]Such are the changes which a few years bring about, and so do things pass away, like a tale that is told! (Ch. Dickens, ‘The Old Curiosity Shop’, ch. LXXIII) — Вот как все переменилось за несколько лет. Все проходит, минует, порастает травой забвения.
The quest for excitement, work, appreciation, and pleasure in distant places seemed to be as a tale which was told. (Kenk) — Труд, почести, удовольствия - вся эта мирская суета в дальних странах кажется призрачной, эфемерной.
The path of history is strewn with dead civilization. Today they are all as tale that is told. (Kenk) — Тропа истории усеяна костями древних цивилизаций. Сегодня все они не больше чем пустой звук.

17 count one's chickens before they are hatched
(count one's chickens before they are hatched (сокр. count one's chickens))радоваться раньше времени, делать преждевременные выводы; ≈ делить шкуру неубитого медведя [часть пословицы don't count your chickens before they are hatched; см. don't count your chickens before they are hatched]Wickham: "I'm afraid it's a great disappointment to you, Miss Marsh." Norah (lightly): "I never count my chickens before they're hatched." (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Land of Promise’, act I) — Викем: "Боюсь, что это большой удар для вас, мисс Марш." Нора (спокойно): "Я никогда не радуюсь раньше времени."
...he had his superstitions, and one of them was that counting your chickens in advance brought bad luck. (P. G. Wodehouse, ‘Summer Lightning’, ch. 3) —...достопочтенный Галахед верил в дурные приметы; он считал, например, что нельзя делить шкуру неубитого медведя - обязательно не повезет.
‘When our ship comes home,’ she would say, and at once sternly warn me about ‘counting our chickens before they were hatched’. With an air of harsh realism, she told me that we mustn't expect the first prize every week. (C. P. Snow, ‘The Affair’, ch. 31) — "Когда мы разбогатеем", - говорила мама и тут же строго учила меня, что цыплят по осени считают. Прикидываясь суровой реалисткой, она говорила, что нельзя рассчитывать на первый приз каждую неделю.
