For the moment, the doctor insists on perfect quiet and repose. So forgive me, old man, for asking you not to raise your voice. A hushed whisper is the stuff to give the troopt. (P. G. Wodehouse, ‘Very Good, Jeeves!’, ch. VI) — Сейчас доктор предписывает вам полный покой. Простите, дружище, но вам не следует повышать голос. Говорите шёпотом. Вот что теперь вам необходимо.
