Английский язык с Шерлоком Холмсом. Собака Баскервилей (ASCII-IPA)

"Yes."

desertion [dI'z@:S(@)n], come [kVm], intend [In'tend]

I saw by the Baronet's clouded brow that he was deeply hurt by what he regarded as our desertion.

"When do you desire to go?" he asked, coldly.

"Immediately after breakfast. We will drive in to Coombe Tracey, but Watson will leave his things as a pledge that he will come back to you. Watson, you will send a note to Stapleton to tell him that you regret that you cannot come."

"I have a good mind to go to London with you," said the Baronet. "Why should I stay here alone?"

"Because it is your post of duty. Because you gave me your word that you would do as you were told, and I tell you to stay."

"All right, then, I'll stay."

"One more direction! I wish you to drive to Merripit House. Send back your trap, however, and let them know that you intend to walk home."

"To walk across the moor?"

"Yes."

"But that is the very thing (но это же то: «та вещь») which you have so often cautioned me not to do (что вы так часто предупреждали меня не делать; to caution — предостерегать)."

"This time you may do it with safety (в этот раз можете сделать это смело; safety — безопасность). If I had not every confidence in your nerve and courage (если бы у меня не было полной уверенности в вашем мужестве и храбрости; every — каждый; всевозможный; nerve — нерв; сила духа, мужество) I would not suggest it (я бы не предложил этого), but it is essential that you should do it (но необходимо, чтобы вы сделали это)."

"Then I will do it (тогда я сделаю это)."

"And as you value your life (и если вы дорожите жизнью) do not go across the moor in any direction (не идите через болота ни в каком другом направлении) save along the straight path (кроме как по прямой тропинке) which leads from Merripit House to the Grimpen Road (которая ведет от Меррипит-хаус к дороге на Гримпен), and is your natural way home (и является вашей обычной дорогой домой)."

"I will do just what you say (я сделаю так, как вы говорите)."

"Very good. I should be glad to get away (я был бы рад уехать) as soon after breakfast as possible (после завтрака настолько быстро, насколько возможно), so as to reach London in the afternoon (чтобы добраться до Лондона к полудню)."

courage ['kVrIdZ], essential [I'senS(@)l], afternoon [,A:ft@'nu:n]

"But that is the very thing which you have so often cautioned me not to do."

"This time you may do it with safety. If I had not every confidence in your nerve and courage I would not suggest it, but it is essential that you should do it."

"Then I will do it."

"And as you value your life do not go across the moor in any direction save along the straight path which leads from Merripit House to the Grimpen Road, and is your natural way home."

"I will do just what you say."

"Very good. I should be glad to get away as soon after breakfast as possible, so as to reach London in the afternoon."

I was much astounded by this programme (я был сильно удивлен таким планом), though I remembered that Holmes had said to Stapleton on the night before (хотя помнил, что Холмс сказал Стэплтону предыдущим вечером) that his visit would terminate next day (что его пребывание /в Баскервиль-холле/ закончится на следующий день; to terminate — ограничивать; завершать). It had not crossed my mind, however (однако мне не приходило в голову; to cross one’s mind — внезапно прийти в голову; to cross — пересекать), that he would wish me to go with him (что он пожелает, чтобы я ехал с ним), nor could I understand how we could both be absent at a moment (и я не мог понять, как мы оба можем отсутствовать в тот момент) which he himself declared to be critical (который он сам назвал: «объявил» критическим). There was nothing for it, however, but implicit obedience (однако ничего не оставалось, кроме безоговорочного подчинения); so we bade good-bye to our rueful friend (поэтому мы попрощались с нашим опечаленным другом; to bid good-bye — сказать "прощай"), and a couple of hours afterwards we were at the station of Coombe Tracey (и пару часов спустя мы были на железнодорожной станции в Кум-Трэйси) and had dispatched the trap upon its return journey (и отослали коляску назад; return — возвращение; journey — путешествие, поездка). A small boy was waiting upon the platform (маленький мальчик ждал на платформе).

"Any orders, sir (какие приказания, сэр)?"

"You will take this train to town, Cartwright (садитесь на этот поезд и /поезжайте/ в город, Картрайт; to take a train — садиться на поезд). The moment you arrive (в тот момент, когда прибудете) you will send a wire to Sir Henry Baskerville, in my name (вы пошлете телеграмму сэру Баскервилю от моего имени), to say that if he finds the pocket-book (/где/ скажете, что если он найдет мою записную книжку) which I have dropped (которую я оставил; to drop — капать; бросать, оставлять) he is to send it by registered post to Baker Street (пусть пошлет: «он должен послать» ее заказным письмом на Бейкер-стрит)."

"Yes, sir."

"And ask at the station office (и спросите в станционной конторе) if there is a message for me (есть ли сообщение для меня)."

programme ['pr@ugr&m], terminate ['t@:mIneIt], wire [waI@]

I was much astounded by this programme, though I remembered that Holmes had said to Stapleton on the night before that his visit would terminate next day. It had not crossed my mind, however, that he would wish me to go with him, nor could I understand how we could both be absent at a moment which he himself declared to be critical.

"Yes, sir."

"And ask at the station office if there is a message for me."

The boy returned with a telegram (мальчик вернулся с телеграммой), which Holmes handed to me (которую Холмс протянул мне). It ran (она гласила): "Wire received (телеграмму получил; wire — проволока; телеграмма). Coming down with unsigned warrant (приезжаю с незаполненным: «неподписанным» ордером). Arrive five-forty. — LESTRADE (прибываю в пять сорок. Лестрейд)."

"That is in answer to mine of this morning (это ответ на мою /телеграмму/ этим утром = на мою утреннюю телеграмму). He is the best of the professionals, I think (полагаю, он является лучшим из профессиональных детективов), and we may need his assistance (и нам может понадобиться его помощь). Now, Watson, I think that we cannot employ our time better (а теперь, Ватсон, думаю, мы не можем использовать наше время лучше; to employ — употреблять, использовать) than by calling upon your acquaintance, Mrs. Laura Lyons (чем посетив вашу знакомую, миссис Лору Лайонс)."
