"And you can do nothing until then?"

"Nothing."

"In that case (в таком случае) I shall continue my professional round (продолжу мой профессиональный обход = поеду к пациентам) . But I shall come back (вернусь) in the evening at the hour you have mentioned (в час, /который/ вы упомянули) , for I should like to see the solution of so tangled a business (хотел бы увидеть окончание столь запутанного дела) ."

"Very glad to see you (/буду/ очень рад вас видеть) . I dine at seven (я обедаю в семь) . There is a woodcock (вальдшнеп /к обеду/) , I believe (я полагаю) . By the way (кстати) , in view of recent occurrences (в виду недавних происшествий) , perhaps I ought to ask (мне следует попросить) Mrs. Hudson to examine its crop (исследовать зоб /вальдшнепа/) ."

I had been delayed at a case (задержался из-за одного дела) , and it was a little after half-past six (немного после половины седьмого) when I found myself in Baker Street once more (снова) . As I approached (когда я приблизился) the house I saw a tall man in a Scotch bonnet (увидел высокого человека в шотландской шапочке) with a coat (в пальто) which was buttoned up to his chin (которое было застегнуто до подбородка) waiting outside in the bright semicircle (ждущего снаружи в ярком полукруге) which was thrown from the fanlight (который был брошен = падал от окна над дверью) . Just as I arrived (подошел: «прибыл») the door was opened, and we were shown up together to Holmes's room (нас обоих: «вместе» провели наверх в комнату Холмса) .

"Mr. Henry Baker, I believe (полагаю) ," said he, rising from his armchair (поднимаясь с кресла) and greeting (приветствуя) his visitor with the easy air of geniality (с непринужденным видом добродушия) which he could so readily assume (который так быстро/легко принять; to assume — принимать, брать на себя) . "Pray take this chair by the fire (прошу вас, садитесь: «берите этот стул» у огня) , Mr. Baker. It is a cold night (холодный вечер) , and I observe that your circulation is more adapted for summer than for winter (а я вижу: «наблюдаю», что ваше кровообращение более приспособлено для лета, чем для зимы) . Ah, Watson, you have just come at the right time (вы только что пришли в правильное время) . Is that your hat, Mr. Baker?"

"Yes, sir, that is undoubtedly my hat (несомненно; doubt — сомнение; to doubt — сомневаться) ."

"Yes, sir, that is undoubtedly my hat."

He was a large man (это был крупный мужчина) with rounded shoulders (с округленными плечами = сутулый) , a massive head (массивной головой) , and a broad, intelligent face (с широким, умным лицом) , sloping down to a pointed beard of grizzled brown (переходящим: «спускающимся» в остроконечную бородку каштанового с сединой /цвета/) . A touch of red in nose and cheeks (оттенок красного = красные пятна на носу и щеках) , with a slight tremor of his extended hand (с легким дрожанием его протянутой руки) , recalled Holmes's surmise as to his habits (напомнили о догадке/предположении Холмса относительно его привычек) . His rusty black frock-coat (его порыжевший черный сюртук) was buttoned right up in front (был застегнут /прямо/ впереди /на все пуговицы/) , with the collar turned up (с воротником, поднятым вверх) , and his lank wrists protruded from his sleeves (и с худощавыми запястьями, торчащими из рукавов) without a sign of cuff or shirt (без /малейшего/ вида манжеты или сорочки) . He spoke in a slow staccato fashion (говорил он в медленной отрывистой манере) , choosing his words with care (выбирая слова с осторожностью) , and gave the impression (производил впечатление) generally of a man of learning and letters (в целом человека интеллигентного: «учености и письма») who had had ill-usage at the hands of fortune (который был сильно помят жизнью: «имел дурное обращение от руки судьбы») .

"We have retained (задержали /сохранили/) these things for some days (на несколько дней) ," said Holmes, "because we expected (ожидали) to see an advertisement from you giving your address (дающее ваш адрес) . I am at a loss to know (я в недоумении узнать = не понимаю) now why you did not advertise (почему вы не дали объявление) ."
