Godfrey Norton, the frequent visitor, is a lawyer. Is Miss Adler his client, his friend, or his lover? The answer would change Holmes’s expectations about where the photograph might be kept. Near Briony Lodge, the detective weighs the possibilities, uncertain which direction his investigation should take from this point onward.

"This Godfrey Norton was evidently an important factor in the matter.「このゴドフリー・ノートンという男が、事件の重要な要素であることは明らかだった。
He was a lawyer.彼は弁護士だった。
That sounded ominous.これはどうも不吉な響きだ。
What was the relation between them, and what the object of his repeated visits?二人はどんな間柄で、彼が何度も訪ねてくる目的は何なのか？
Was she his client, his friend, or his mistress?彼女は彼の依頼人か、友人か、それとも愛人か？
If the former, she had probably transferred the photograph to his keeping.依頼人なら、おそらく写真を彼に預けているだろう。
If the latter, it was less likely.愛人なら、その見込みは薄い。
On the issue of this question depended whether I should continue my work at Briony Lodge, or turn my attention to the gentleman's chambers in the Temple.この問いの答えしだいで、ブライオニー荘での仕事を続けるか、テンプルにあるその紳士の事務所に目を向けるかが決まるわけだ。
It was a delicate point, and it widened the field of my inquiry.微妙な問題で、おかげで調べる範囲が広がってしまった。
I fear that I bore you with these details, but I have to let you see my little difficulties, if you are to understand the situation."こんな細かい話で退屈させているかもしれないが、状況をわかってもらうには、私のちょっとした悩みどころを知っておいてもらわないとね」
"I am following you closely," I answered.「ちゃんとついて行っているよ」と私は答えた。
