expose [Iks'p@uz], foresee [fO:'si:], business ['bIznIs]

"That Sir Henry should have been exposed to this is, I must confess, a reproach to my management of the case, but we had no means of foreseeing the terrible and paralyzing spectacle which the beast presented, nor could we predict the fog which enabled him to burst upon us at such short notice. We succeeded in our object at a cost which both the specialist and Dr. Mortimer assure me will be a temporary one. A long journey may enable our friend to recover not only from his shattered nerves, but also from his wounded feelings. His love for the lady was deep and sincere, and to him the saddest part of all this black business was that he should have been deceived by her.

"It only remains to indicate the part (остается только упомянуть о роли; to indicate — показывать; упомянуть; part — часть; участие, роль) which she had played throughout (какую она сыграла /в этом деле/; throughout — повсюду, на всем протяжении) . There can be no doubt (не может быть никаких сомнений) that Stapleton exercised an influence over her (что Стэплтон имел на нее влияние; to exercise — осуществлять, проявлять) which may have been love or may have been fear (которое могло быть любовью, а могло быть страхом) , or very possibly both (а, очень возможно, и тем, и другим) , since they are by no means incompatible emotions (поскольку это вполне совместимые: «отнюдь не несовместимые» эмоции) . It was, at least, absolutely effective (по крайней мере, это было вполне эффективно) . At his command she consented to pass as his sister (по его указанию: «приказу» она согласилась выдавать себя за его сестру: «проходить как его сестра») , though he found the limits of his power over her (хотя он обнаружил предел своей власти над ней) when he endeavoured to make her the direct accessory to murder (когда он пытался сделать ее непосредственным соучастником убийства) . She was ready to warn Sir Henry (она была готова предупредить сэра Генри) so far as she could without implicating her husband (насколько могла, не впутывая своего мужа) , and again and again she tried to do so (и пыталась сделать это снова и снова) .

indicate ['IndIkeIt], exercise ['eks@saIz], emotion [I'm@uS(@)n]

"It only remains to indicate the part which she had played throughout. There can be no doubt that Stapleton exercised an influence over her which may have been love or may have been fear, or very possibly both, since they are by no means incompatible emotions. It was, at least, absolutely effective. At his command she consented to pass as his sister, though he found the limits of his power over her when he endeavoured to make her the direct accessory to murder. She was ready to warn Sir Henry so far as she could without implicating her husband, and again and again she tried to do so.

"Stapleton himself seems to have been capable of jealousy (сам Стэплтон, похоже, был способен на ревность) , and when he saw the Baronet paying court to the lady (и, когда он увидел, как баронет ухаживает за его женой: «дамой»; to pay court to smb. — ухаживать за кем-либо) , even though it was part of his own plan (даже хотя это было частью его плана) , still he could not help interrupting with a passionate outburst (он все же не смог не вмешаться, вспыхнув от гнева; passionate — пылкий, страстный; outburst — взрыв; вспышка) that revealed the fiery soul (что показало /его/ пламенную душу; to reveal — открывать, разоблачать; показывать) which his self-contained manner so cleverly concealed (которую он так умело скрывал за сдержанными манерами) . By encouraging the intimacy he made it certain (поощряя эти ухаживания, он был уверен; intimacy — тесная связь, близость; to make certain — удостовериться) that Sir Henry would frequently come to Merripit House (что сэр Генри будет часто приходить в Меррипит-хаус) and that he would sooner or later get the opportunity (и что рано или поздно он получит возможность) which he desired (о которой мечтал; to desire — желать, испытывать сильное желание, мечтать) . On the day of the crisis, however (однако в критический момент: «в день кризиса») , his wife turned suddenly against him (его жена внезапно взбунтовалась; to turn against — восстать: «повернуться» против) . She had learned something of the death of the convict (она что-то узнала о смерти каторжника) , and she knew that the hound was being kept in the out-house on the evening (и она знала, что собаку держали в сарае в тот вечер) that Sir Henry was coming to dinner (когда сэр Генри /собирался/ прийти к обеду) . She taxed her husband with his intended crime (она обвинила мужа в умышленном злодеянии; to tax — облагать налогом; обвинять; to intend — намереваться; планировать) , and a furious scene followed (и последовала бурная сцена; furious — яростный; неистовый; fury — неистовство; бешенство, ярость) , in which he showed her for the first time (во /время/ которой он дал ей понять: «показал» впервые) that she had a rival in his love (что у нее есть соперница в любви) .

jealousy ['dZel@sI], passionate ['p&S(@)nIt], scene [si:n]

"Stapleton himself seems to have been capable of jealousy, and when he saw the Baronet paying court to the lady, even though it was part of his own plan, still he could not help interrupting with a passionate outburst that revealed the fiery soul which his self-contained manner so cleverly concealed. By encouraging the intimacy he made it certain that Sir Henry would frequently come to Merripit House and that he would sooner or later get the opportunity which he desired. On the day of the crisis, however, his wife turned suddenly against him. She had learned something of the death of the convict, and she knew that the hound was being kept in the out-house on the evening that Sir Henry was coming to dinner. She taxed her husband with his intended crime, and a furious scene followed, in which he showed her for the first time that she had a rival in his love.

"Her fidelity turned in an instant to bitter hatred (ее преданность мгновенно превратилась в жгучую ненависть; bitter — горький; сильный) and he saw that she would betray him (и он понял, что она выдаст его) . He tied her up, therefore (поэтому он ее связал) , that she might have no chance of warning Sir Henry (чтобы у нее не было возможности предупредить сэра Генри) , and he hoped, no doubt (и он наверняка надеялся) , that when the whole countryside put down the Baronet's death to the curse of his family (что когда /жители/ всей округи припишут смерть баронета проклятью его рода; to put down to — приписывать /чему-либо/) , as they certainly would do (что они, конечно, и сделали бы) , he could win his wife back to accept an accomplished fact (он сможет вернуть жену, /которая/ примет все как свершившееся; to win back — возвратить) and to keep silent upon what she knew (и /будет/ хранить молчание о том, что знает) . In this I fancy that in any case he made a miscalculation (в этом, я думаю, во всяком случае он просчитался: «сделал просчет») , and that, if we had not been there (и, если бы нас там не было) , his doom would none the less have been sealed (его судьба все равно была бы решена; none the less — тем не менее; to seal — скреплять печатью, ставить печать; окончательно решать; seal — печать) . A woman of Spanish blood (женщина испанской крови) does not condone such an injury so lightly (не смирится с подобным оскорблением столь легко; injury — повреждение; оскорбление) . And now, my dear Watson, without referring to my notes (а теперь, дорогой Ватсон, не обратясь к моим записям) , I cannot give you a more detailed account of this curious case (я не смогу дать вам более подробный отчет об этом любопытном деле) . I do not know that anything essential has been left unexplained (я не думаю, что не объяснил: «оставил необъясненным» что-то существенное) ."

"He could not hope to frighten Sir Henry to death (он не мог надеяться напугать сэра Генри до смерти) as he had done the old uncle (как он сделал с его старым дядюшкой) with his bogie hound (этой призрачной собакой; bogie — привидение) ."
