He was a middle-sized man, coarsely clad as became his calling,
他中等身材，穿着和他的行当相称的粗料子衣服，
with a coloured shirt protruding through the rent in his tattered coat.

He was, as the inspector had said, extremely dirty,

so that three teeth were exposed in a perpetual snarl.

"He certainly needs a wash," remarked Holmes.
"他的确需要洗一洗，"福尔摩斯说，
"I had an idea that he might, and I took the liberty of bringing the tools with me."
"我想了个他可以洗一洗的主意，还自作主张地带了些家伙来。"
He opened the Gladstone bag as he spoke, and took out, to my astonishment, a very large bath-sponge.
他一边说一边打开那个格拉德斯通制造的软提包，取出了一块很大的洗澡海绵，使我吃了一惊。
