It was the deuce of a shock. 2 You never can tell, Jeeves!

ДЖИВС И НЕЗВАННЫЙ ГОСТЬ | Quot;Lady Malvern wishes to see you, sir," said Jeeves. | Quot;Who the deuce is Lady Malvern, Jeeves?". | Dashed unpleasant. I could see that the man was wounded. But I was firm. I tied the tie, got into the coat and waistcoat, and went into the sitting-room. | Quot;Yes, mother," he said, and corked himself up again. | There was something about this woman that sapped a chappie's will-power. | They went out, and I howled for Jeeves. | Quot;Lord Pershore will be staying here from to-night, Jeeves," I said coldly. | Quot;Lord Pershore gone to bed, Jeeves?" I asked, with reserved hauteur and what-not. | I went to the front door. The man was right. There was Motty huddled up outside on the floor. He was moaning a bit. |

2 "You never can tell, Jeeves!"

3 "Very seldom, sir."

4 "Remove the eye of authority and where are you?"

5 "Precisely, sir."

6 "Where is my wandering boy to-night and all that sort of thing, what?"

7 "It would seem so, sir."

8 "Well, we had better bring him in, eh?"

9 "Yes, sir."

So we lugged him in, and Jeeves put him to bed, and I lit a cigarette and sat down to think the thing over. I had a kind of foreboding. It seemed to me that I had let myself in for something pretty rocky.

 

 

1 Next morning, after I had sucked down a thoughtful cup of tea (следующим утром, после того, как я высосал задумчивую чашку чаю; thoughtful [TLtful]), I went into Motty's room to investigate (я пошёл в комнату Мотти, чтобы расследовать; to investigate [In'vestIgeIt]). I expected to find the fellow a wreck (я ожидал обнаружить парня развалиной; wreck [rek] сущ. – крушение, авария; развалина / о человеке /), but there he was (но там он был), sitting up in bed, quite chirpy, reading Gingery Stories (сидящий в кровати, вполне весёлый, читающий «Пикантные истории»; chirpy ['CWpI] веселый, живой, радостный = merry; gingery ['GInGqrI] – досл. имбирный, пряный = spicy, piquant ['pJkqnt]).

 

2 "What ho (привет; what ho! – оклик или приветствие: эй, там! привет! и т.п.)!" I said (я сказал).

 

3 "What ho (привет)!" said Motty (сказал Мотти).

 

4 "What ho (привет)! What ho (привет)!"

 

5 "What ho (привет)! What ho (привет)! What ho (привет)!"

 

6 After that it seemed rather difficult to go on with the conversation (после этого, казалось довольно сложно продолжать разговор; conversation ["kOnvq'seIS(q)n]).

And, by Jove, he was right! Once on the right track, you couldn't mistake it. Motty was under the surface.| After that it seemed rather difficult to go on with the conversation.
