"It's all clear," he whispered. "Have you the chisel and the bags? Great Scott! Jump, Archie, jump, and I'll swing for it!"

他小聲地說(shuō)："一切都很順當(dāng)。你把鑿子和袋子都帶來(lái)了嗎？天啊，不好了！阿爾奇，跳，趕緊跳，別的由我來(lái)對(duì)付！"

Sherlock Holmes had sprung out and seized the intruder by the collar.

歇洛克·福爾摩斯一躍而起，跳過(guò)去一把揪住這個(gè)偷偷潛入的人的領(lǐng)子。

The other dived down the hole, and I heard the sound of rending cloth as Jones clutched at his skirts.

另一個(gè)人猛然一下子跳到洞里去了。我聽到撕破衣服的聲音，瓊斯當(dāng)時(shí)一把抓住了他的衣服的下擺。

The light flashed upon the barrel of a revolver,

一枝左輪手槍的槍管在亮光中閃現(xiàn)了一下，

but Holmes's hunting crop came down on the man's wrist, and the pistol clinked upon the stone floor.

但福爾摩斯的打獵鞭子驟然打在那個(gè)人的手腕上，手槍當(dāng)?shù)匾宦暤粼谑宓厣稀?/p>

"It's no use, John Clay," said Holmes blandly. "You have no chance at all."

福爾摩斯無(wú)動(dòng)于衷似地說(shuō)："約翰·克萊，那是徒勞的，你逃不過(guò)這一關(guān)了。"

"So I see," the other answered with the utmost coolness.

對(duì)方極其冷靜地回答說(shuō)："我看是這樣。

"I fancy that my pal is all right, though I see you have got his coat-tails."

我想我的好友會(huì)平安無(wú)事的，雖然我看見你們揪住了他的衣角。"

"There are three men waiting for him at the door," said Holmes.

福爾摩斯說(shuō)："三個(gè)人正在那邊門口等著他呢。"

"Oh, indeed! You seem to have done the thing very completely. I must compliment you."

"噢，真的，你們辦事似乎很周到。我應(yīng)該向你們致敬！"

"And I you," Holmes answered. "Your red-headed idea was very new and effective."

福爾摩斯回答道："彼此，彼此。你的那個(gè)紅頭發(fā)點(diǎn)子很新穎，也很有效。"

"You'll see your pal again presently," said Jones.

瓊斯說(shuō)："你將會(huì)同你的伙伴愉快地會(huì)面的。

"He's quicker at climbing down holes than I am. Just hold out while I fix the derbies."

他鉆進(jìn)洞里的動(dòng)作比我來(lái)得快。伸出手來(lái)，讓我銬上。"

"I beg that you will not touch me with your filthy hands," remarked our prisoner as the handcuffs clattered upon his wrists.

當(dāng)手銬把我們的俘虜?shù)氖滞罂凵系臅r(shí)候，他說(shuō)："我請(qǐng)求你們不要用你們的臟手碰我。

"You may not be aware that I have royal blood in my veins.

你們也許不知道我是皇族后裔。

Have the goodness, also, when you address me always to say 'sir' and 'please.'"

我還要請(qǐng)你們跟我說(shuō)話時(shí)，在任何時(shí)候都要用'先生'和'請(qǐng)'字。"

"All right," said Jones with a stare and a snigger.

瓊斯瞪大眼睛，忍住了笑說(shuō)："好吧，

"Well, would you please, sir, march upstairs, where we can get a cab to carry your Highness to the police-station?"

唔，'先生'請(qǐng)你往臺(tái)階上走吧，到了上面，我們可以弄輛馬車把閣下送到警察局去?？梢詥?？"

"That is better," said John Clay serenely.

約翰·克萊安詳?shù)卣f(shuō)："這就好些。"

He made a sweeping bow to the three of us and walked quietly off in the custody of the detective.

他向我們?nèi)撕芸斓鼐狭藗€(gè)躬，然后默默無(wú)言地在警探的監(jiān)護(hù)下走了出去。
