Leaving Baker Street at a quarter past six, Holmes in his clergyman’s disguise and Watson reach Serpentine Avenue before seven. Dusk is falling and the street lamps are being lit. They walk outside Briony Lodge awaiting its mistress, but the supposedly quiet little street is unexpectedly crowded with people that evening.

It was a quarter past six when we left Baker Street, and it still wanted ten minutes to the hour when we found ourselves in Serpentine Avenue.私たちがベイカー街を出たのは六時十五分で、サーペンタイン通りに着いたときは、まだ七時の十分前だった。
It was already dusk, and the lamps were just being lighted as we paced up and down in front of Briony Lodge, waiting for the coming of its occupant.すでに夕闇が迫っており、私たちがブライオニー荘の前を行きつ戻りつしながら住人の帰りを待つうちに、ちょうど街灯がともされはじめた。
The house was just such as I had pictured it from Sherlock Holmes' succinct description, but the locality appeared to be less private than I expected.家はシャーロック・ホームズの簡潔な説明から思い描いていたとおりだったが、あたりは予想していたほど人目のない場所ではなさそうだった。
On the contrary, for a small street in a quiet neighbourhood, it was remarkably animated.それどころか、閑静な界隈の小さな通りにしては、驚くほどにぎわっていた。
There was a group of shabbily dressed men smoking and laughing in a corner, a scissors-grinder with his wheel, two guardsmen who were flirting with a nurse-girl, and several well-dressed young men who were lounging up and down with cigars in their mouths.角ではみすぼらしい身なりの男たちがたばこを吸いながら笑い合い、ほかにも砥石車を据えた研ぎ屋、子守娘に言い寄る二人の近衛兵、それに葉巻をくわえてぶらぶらと行き来する身なりのよい若者が何人かいた。
