"It is for me to ask you that," he shrieked, "you thieves! Spies and thieves!
"這句話是要由我來問你們才對!"他尖聲叫喊說,"你們這幫賊!賊探子!
I have caught you, have I? You are in my power. I'll serve you!"

He turned and clattered down the stairs as hard as he could go.

"最好把門關(guān)上,"福爾摩斯說,于是我們一起向樓下沖去。

"我的天,"他大聲喊著,"什么人把狗放出來了。它已經(jīng)兩天沒喂過食啦,快,快,要不就來不及了!"
