Nothing delights Watson more than watching Holmes reason at close range, so he dresses quickly and follows him downstairs. A woman in black stands by the window, her face concealed by a heavy veil. She rises to greet them, and Holmes cheerfully invites her to take a seat near the fire.

I had no keener pleasure than in following Holmes in his professional investigations, and in admiring the rapid deductions, as swift as intuitions, and yet always founded on a logical basis with which he unravelled the problems which were submitted to him.私にとって、ホームズの職業上の調査につき従い、直感のように素早いのに、いつも論理の土台に支えられた彼の推理が、持ち込まれた問題を解きほぐしていくのに見とれることほど、大きな楽しみはなかった。
I rapidly threw on my clothes and was ready in a few minutes to accompany my friend down to the sitting-room.私は大急ぎで服を着て、数分で、友人について居間へ降りていく支度を整えた。
A lady dressed in black and heavily veiled, who had been sitting in the window, rose as we entered.黒い服を着て厚いヴェールをかぶった女性が、窓辺に座っていたが、私たちが入ると立ち上がった。
"Good-morning, madam," said Holmes cheerily.「おはようございます、お嬢さん」とホームズは陽気に言った。
"My name is Sherlock Holmes.「私はシャーロック・ホームズです。
This is my intimate friend and associate, Dr. Watson, before whom you can speak as freely as before myself.こちらは親友であり仕事仲間のワトソン博士で、私に話すのと同じくらい自由に、彼の前でもお話しになれますよ。

I am glad to see that Mrs. Hudson has had the good sense to light the fire.ハドソン夫人が気を利かせて暖炉に火を入れてくれたようで、何よりです。
Pray draw up to it, and I shall order you a cup of hot coffee, for I observe that you are shivering."どうぞ火のそばにお寄りなさい。熱いコーヒーを頼んで差し上げましょう。震えておいでのようですから」
