He staggered, still trying to hold off the cold bite of death.
Pot cal sa a st le sa snazil odolať chladn mu uhryznutiu smrti.
He had seen this before, but always from the winning side.
Uz to videl predt m, ale vzdy z v ťaznej strany.

Teraz bol na strane porazen ch; porazen ch; koristi; smrti.
Buck circled for the final blow, the ring of dogs pressed closer.
Buck kr zil pre posledn der, kruh psov sa pritlačil blizsie.
He could feel their hot breaths; ready for the kill.
C til ich hor ce dychy; pripraven zabiť.
A stillness fell; all was in its place; time had stopped.
Nastalo ticho; vsetko bolo na svojom mieste; čas sa zastavil.
Even the cold air between them froze for one last moment.
Dokonca aj studen vzduch medzi nimi na posledn chv ľu zamrzol.
