Английский язык с Шерлоком Холмсом. Собака Баскервилей (ASCII-IPA)

"Well, I am glad from my heart that you are here, for indeed the responsibility and the mystery were both becoming too much for my nerves. But how in the name of wonder did you come here, and what have you been doing? I thought that you were in Baker Street working out that case of blackmailing."

"That was what I wished you to think."

"Then you use me, and yet do not trust me!" I cried, with some bitterness. "I think that I have deserved better at your hands, Holmes."

"My dear fellow, you have been invaluable to me (мой дорогой друг, ваша /помощь всегда/ неоценима для меня) in this as in many other cases (в этом случае так же, как и во многих других), and I beg that you will forgive me (и я прошу, чтоб вы простили меня) if I have seemed to play a trick upon you (если /вам/ показалось, что я сыграл с вами шутку). In truth (на самом деле), it was partly for your own sake (это было отчасти для вашего же собственного блага) that I did it (что я сделал это), and it was my appreciation of the danger which you ran (я понял: «это было мое понимание», какой опасности вы подвергались; to run — бежать; подвергаться /риску, опасности и т. д./) which led me to come down (что и побудило меня приехать; to lead — вести; склонять, убеждать) and examine the matter for myself (и изучить это дело самому). Had I been with Sir Henry and you (будь я с вами и сэром Генри) it is evident that my point of view would have been the same as yours (очевидно, что моя точка зрения была такой же, как ваша), and my presence would have warned our very formidable opponents (а мое присутствие /было бы/ предупреждением нашим грозным противникам) to be on their guard (быть начеку). As it is, I have been able to get about (а так я мог /свободно/ передвигаться) as I could not possibly have done (чего я просто не мог бы делать) had I been living at the Hall (живи я в Баскервиль-холле), and I remain an unknown factor in the business (и я остаюсь неизвестным фактором), ready to throw in all my weight at a critical moment (готовым всеми силами: «всем своим весом» нанести удар в критический момент; to throw — бросать; нанести сильный удар)."

"But why keep me in the dark (но почему вы меня держали в неведении: «в темноте»)?"
