They listened then, and they could hear the old man muttering to himself as he turned the cards, “Spades and Diamonds, Courage and Power; Clubs and Hearts, Knowledge and Pleasure.”
“That is the kind of talk he has been going on with for the last hour (подобного рода разговоры он ведет в течение последнего часа; to go on – много говорить, болтать /разг./),” said the man of the house (сказал хозяин дома), and Hanrahan turned his eyes from the old man (и Ханрахан отвел взгляд от старика; eyes – глаза; взгляд, взор) as if he did not like to be looking at him (как будто ему не нравилось смотреть на того).
“I got your message,” Hanrahan said then (я получил твое послание, – сказал тогда Ханрахан); “he is in the barn with his three first cousins from Kilchriest (он в амбаре с тремя своими двоюродными братьями из Килкриста; first cousin – двоюродный брат, двоюродная сестра),” the messenger said (сказал посланец), “and there are some of the neighbours with them (и с ними там еще кое-кто из соседей).”

“It is a kind message, indeed,” said the young man (это сердечное послание, на самом деле, – сказал молодой человек), “for it comes from your sweetheart, Mary Lavelle (ибо оно происходит от твоей возлюбленной, Мэри Лэвелл; to come – приходить; происходить, иметь происхождение).”
“How would you get a message from her (как же ты получил послание от нее), and what do you know of her (и что ты знаешь о ней)?”
