Holmes appears to have learned much more from Mary than Watson did. Watson did not fail to see the evidence, Holmes says; he failed to notice it. After stressing the importance of sleeves, thumbnails, and bootlaces, Holmes invites Watson to describe Mary’s appearance from memory, and Watson begins listing every detail he can recall.

"You appeared to read a good deal upon her which was quite invisible to me," I remarked.「きみには、私にはまったく見えなかったことが、彼女についてずいぶん読み取れたようだね」と私は言った。
"Not invisible but unnoticed, Watson.「見えなかったのではなく、気づかなかったのだ、ワトソン。
You did not know where to look, and so you missed all that was important.どこを見るべきか知らなかったから、肝心なことをすべて見落としたのだよ。
I can never bring you to realise the importance of sleeves, the suggestiveness of thumb-nails, or the great issues that may hang from a boot-lace.私はどうしてもきみに、袖の重要さや、親指の爪が何を物語るか、一本の靴ひもに重大な問題がかかっていることを、分かってもらえない。
Now, what did you gather from that woman's appearance?さて、あの女性の外見から何を読み取ったかね。
Describe it."説明してみたまえ」
"Well, she had a slate-coloured, broad-brimmed straw hat, with a feather of a brickish red.「そうだな、石板のような灰色のつばの広い麦わら帽子をかぶり、れんが色がかった赤い羽根が付いていた。
Her jacket was black, with black beads sewn upon it, and a fringe of little black jet ornaments.上着は黒で、黒いビーズが縫い付けてあり、小さな黒玉の飾りの房が付いていた。
Her dress was brown, rather darker than coffee colour, with a little purple plush at the neck and sleeves.服はコーヒー色よりやや濃い茶色で、首と袖には少し紫のプラッシュがあった。
Her gloves were greyish and were worn through at the right forefinger.手袋は灰色がかっていて、右の人差し指のところがすり切れていた。
Her boots I didn't observe.靴は見なかったよ。
She had small round, hanging gold earrings, and a general air of being fairly well-to-do in a vulgar, comfortable, easy-going way."小さな丸い金のイヤリングを下げていて、全体として、俗っぽいが気楽でのんきな、かなり暮らし向きのよい人という様子だった」
