wore [wɔ: ], knight [naɪt], visit [ˈvɪzɪt]

"Those were ostrich plumes Zogar Sag wore," he said. "I've seen them on the helmets of knights who rode from the East to visit the barons of the marches. There are no ostriches in this forest, are there?"

"They came from Kush," answered Conan (они пришли = попали сюда из Куша, — ответил Конан). "West of here, many marches, lies the seashore (на западе отсюда, /во/ многих переходах лежит берег моря). Ships from Zingara occasionally come and trade weapons and ornaments and wine to the coastal tribes for skins and copper ore and gold dust (корабли из Зингары время от времени приходят и обменивают оружие, украшения и вино у прибрежных племен на шкуры, медную руду и золотой песок). Sometimes they trade ostrich plumes they got from the Stygians (иногда они меняют страусиные перья, которые они получили у стигийцев), who in turn got them from the black tribes of Kush, which lies south of Stygia (которые в свою очередь получили их от черных племен Куша, который лежит = находится южнее Стигии). The Pictish shamans place great store by them (пиктские шаманы платят много за них; to place — вкладывать, вкладывать деньги / капитал делать, размещать заказ; great store — большое количество, большие средства). But there's much risk in such trade (но есть большой риск в такой торговле). The Picts are too likely to try to seize the ship (пикты вполне могут попытаться захватить корабль; to be likely to V — вероятно сделать что-л.). And the coast is dangerous to ships (а побережье опасно для кораблей). I've sailed along it when I was with the pirates of the Barachan Isles, which lie southwest of Zingara (я ходил[41] вдоль него, когда я был с пиратами Барахских островов, которые лежат на юго-востоке от Зингары)."
