In the evening room, Holmes makes his visitor sit down. He rests his feet against the corner of the fireplace, puts both hands in his pockets, and leans back. Speaking almost to himself rather than to Watson and Windibank, he begins to reconstruct the events in order and invites correction if any detail is wrong.

"Oh, it won't do—really it won't," said Holmes suavely.「いや、それは通用しませんよ。本当に通用しないのです」とホームズは穏やかに言った。
"There is no possible getting out of it, Mr. Windibank.「逃れることはできません、ウィンディバンクさん。
It is quite too transparent, and it was a very bad compliment when you said that it was impossible for me to solve so simple a question.あまりにも見え透いています。こんな簡単な問題を私に解けるはずがないとおっしゃるのは、ずいぶん失礼な評価でしたね。
That's right!そう、それでよいのです。
Sit down and let us talk it over."お座りになって、話し合いましょう」
Our visitor collapsed into a chair, with a ghastly face and a glitter of moisture on his brow.来客は、青ざめた顔と汗に光る額をして、椅子へへたり込んだ。
"It—it's not actionable," he stammered.「そ、それは訴えられるようなことではありません」と彼はどもった。
"I am very much afraid that it is not.「残念ながら、まったくそのとおりでしょう。
But between ourselves, Windibank, it was as cruel and selfish and heartless a trick in a petty way as ever came before me.ですが、ここだけの話、ウィンディバンクさん、規模こそ小さくとも、私が出会った中で、これほど残酷で利己的で無情な企てはありませんでした。
Now, let me just run over the course of events, and you will contradict me if I go wrong."では、一連の出来事を順にたどってみましょう。私が間違えたら、遠慮なく反論してください」
The man sat huddled up in his chair, with his head sunk upon his breast, like one who is utterly crushed.男は、すっかり打ちのめされた者のように、胸に頭を垂れて、椅子の中で身を縮めていた。
Holmes stuck his feet up on the corner of the mantelpiece and, leaning back with his hands in his pockets, began talking, rather to himself, as it seemed, than to us.ホームズは両足を炉棚の隅へ突き出し、両手をポケットに入れて背にもたれると、私たちにというより、独り言のように話し始めた。
