In the sitting room at Briony Lodge, Holmes, still dressed as a clergyman, sits up on the sofa. From his position outside the window, Watson watches intently and holds his breath. A maid hurries toward the window. The moment for Watson to carry out his assigned task is now drawing near.

Holmes had sat up upon the couch, and I saw him motion like a man who is in need of air.ホームズはソファの上で身を起こしており、空気を求める人のような仕草をするのが私には見えた。
A maid rushed across and threw open the window.女中が駆け寄って、窓を開け放った。
At the same instant I saw him raise his hand and at the signal I tossed my rocket into the room with a cry of "Fire!"同じ瞬間、彼が手を上げるのが見え、その合図で私は「火事だ！」と叫びながら発煙筒を部屋に投げ込んだ。
The word was no sooner out of my mouth than the whole crowd of spectators, well dressed and ill—gentlemen, ostlers, and servant maids—joined in a general shriek of "Fire!"その言葉が私の口から出るやいなや、見物人の群れ全体が、身なりのよい者もそうでない者も――紳士も馬丁も女中も――声をそろえて「火事だ！」と叫んだ。
Thick clouds of smoke curled through the room and out at the open window.濃い煙が渦を巻いて部屋に広がり、開いた窓から外へあふれ出た。
I caught a glimpse of rushing figures, and a moment later the voice of Holmes from within assuring them that it was a false alarm.駆け回る人影がちらりと見え、その直後、中からホームズの声がして、誤報だと皆をなだめていた。
Slipping through the shouting crowd I made my way to the corner of the street, and in ten minutes was rejoiced to find my friend's arm in mine, and to get away from the scene of uproar.叫び立てる群衆の間をすり抜けて私は通りの角へ向かい、十分後には、友の腕が私の腕に組まれているのを知ってほっとし、騒ぎの場から離れることができた。
He walked swiftly and in silence for some few minutes until we had turned down one of the quiet streets which lead towards the Edgeware Road.エッジウェア通りへ通じる静かな通りの一本に曲がり込むまで、彼は数分のあいだ、足早に黙って歩いた。
