Nor could he hear anywhere of the beggar-woman (не слышал: «не мог он услышать» он нигде о нищенке) who was his mother (которая была его матерью), though for the space of three years (хотя за три года: «за период времени в три года»; space — протяженность; промежуток времени) he wandered over the world (он обошел весь мир), and often seemed to see her (и часто, казалось, видел ее) on the road in front of him (на дороге впереди себя), and would call to her (и звал ее), and run after her (и бежал за ней) till the sharp flints (до тех пор, пока острые камни; flint — кремень, камень) made his feet to bleed (не разбивали ее ноги в кровь: «не заставляли его ноги кровоточить»; to make (made), to bleed — кровоточить, истекать кровью).
