Subject: заключенный в четырех стенах Контекст был следующий: Им беззащитным, не каждый день имеющим возможность купить хлеб, принять обезболивающие средства, заключенным в четырех стенах, не видящих ничего, кроме потолка, необходимо наше милосердие.Я дошла только до варианта They unprotected, not every day able to buy bread, take anaesthetics, staying at home, who see nothing excepy the ceiling are need our mercy. Так можно? |
если дословно: locked within (these) four walls excepy the ceiling are need |
rabotat' etc not able = unable |
unable to buy bread every day, taking anasethetics, ....having no real life... |
Какая мрачная картина - хлеба нет, уколоться нечем... |
They, helpless, who can't afford to buy bread, taking anasethetics, living within the four walls of a township dwelling and observing the room ceiling, need our mercy/compassion |

for stylistic effect use absolute construction: Helpless, unable to buy bread and medicine,etc., they need your grace and mercy. |
