1. 'Oh, doctor,' we cried, 'what shall we do (что /следует/ нам делать)? Where is

he wounded (куда он ранен)?'

2. 'Wounded (ранен)? A fiddle-stick's end (чепуха: «конец скрипичной

палочки»)!' said the doctor. 'No more wounded than you or I (не более ранен,

чем вы или я). The man has had a stroke (у него был удар), as I warned him (как

я предупреждал

его). Now, Mrs Hawkins, just you run upstairs to your husband

(сейчас, миссис Хокинс, просто бегите наверх к вашему мужу), and tell him, if

possible, nothing about it (и скажите ему, если возможно, ничего об этом =

ничего об этом не рассказывайте). For my part (с моей стороны), I must do my

best to save this fellow's trebly worthless life (я должен сделать свое лучшее =

постараюсь спасти трижды никчемную жизнь этого товарища); and Jim, you

get me a basin (Джим, принеси мне таз).'

1. 'Oh, doctor,' we cried, 'what shall we do? Where is he wounded?'

2. 'Wounded? A fiddle-stick's end!' said the doctor. 'No more wounded than

you or I. The man has had a stroke, as I warned him. Now, Mrs Hawkins, just

you run upstairs to your husband, and tell him, if possible, nothing about it.

For my part, I must do my best to save this fellow's trebly worthless life; and

Jim, you get me a basin.'

1. When I got back with the basin (когда я вернулся с тазом), the doctor had

already ripped up the captain's sleeve (доктор уже вспорол рукав капитана), and

exposed his great sinewy arm (и обнажил его большую мускулистую руку; to

expose — выставлять на показ, обнажать; sinew — сухожилие;

мускулатрура). It was tattooed in several places (она была татуирована в

нескольких местах). 'Here's luck (вот удача = на счастье),' 'A fair wind

(попутный ветер),' and 'Billy Bones his fancy (удачи Билли Бонсу; fancy —

увлечение, пристрастие),' were very neatly and clearly executed on the forearm

(были

очень аккуратно и четко выполнены на предплечье); and up near the

shoulder (/вверху/ возле плеча) there was a sketch of a gallows and a man

hanging from it (был рисунок виселицы и человека, свисающего с = висящего

на ней) — done, as I thought, with great spirit (сделано, как я подумал, с

великой живостью; spirit — дух; воодушевление, задор).

2. 'Prophetic (пророческий /рисунок/),' said the doctor, touching this picture with

his finger (сказал доктор, трогая эту картину пальцем). 'And now, Master Billy

Bones (а теперь, капитан Билли Бонс; master — господин, капитан), if that be

your name (если это ваше имя), we'll have a look at the colour of your blood

(посмотрим на цвет вашей крови). Jim,' he said, are you afraid of blood (ты

боишься крови)?'

Master Billy Bones, if that be your name, we'll have a look at the colour of

your blood. Jim,' he said, are you afraid of blood?'

1. 'No, sir,' said I.

2. 'Well, then,' said he, 'you hold the basin (держи таз);' and with that he took his

lancet and opened a vein (с этим = сказав так, он взял ланцет и вскрыл вену).

3. A great deal of blood was taken (значительное количество крови было взято

= вытекло) before the captain opened his eyes and looked mistily about him
