"How!" exclaimed Athelstane. "Is this the noble King Richard?"

"Yes, it is Richard himself," replied Cedric. "But let me remind you that since he came here as a guest of his own free will, he may not be harmed or taken prisoner. Think of your duty as a host."

"Yes," said Athelstane, "and my duty as an Englishman (и о моем долге англичанина)! I promise to be loyal to you, Richard (я обещаю быть верным тебе, Ричард; loyal — верный, преданный)!"

"Think of the freedom of England (подумайте о свободе Англии; freedom — независимость, самостоятельность, свобода)!" exclaimed Cedric.

"Bread and water in a dungeon (хлеб и вода в темнице) do wonderful things to a man's ambition (делают удивительные вещи с честолюбивыми замыслами человека)! I rise out of the grave a wiser man (я восстал из могилы куда более мудрым человеком; to rise — подниматься, вставать на ноги; воскресать, оживать) than I was when I went into it (чем я был, когда вошел = попал в нее). I have no interest (мне не интересно: «у меня нет никой заинтересованности») in being king anywhere else than here (быть королем где бы то ни было еще, кроме как здесь), on my own land (на моей собственной земле). And my first act as king (и моим первым делом в качестве короля; act — дело, поступок, деяние) will be to hang that priest (будет повешение того священника; to hang — вешать, развешивать; вешать; казнить через повешение)."

loyal ['lɔɪəl], freedom ['fri:dəm], wise [waɪz], anywhere ['enɪwɛə]

"Yes," said Athelstane, "and my duty as an Englishman! I promise to be loyal to you, Richard!"

"Think of the freedom of England!" exclaimed Cedric.

"And my ward, Rowena (а моя воспитанница, Ровена)," said Cedric, "you don't intend to leave her as well (вы же не собираетесь оставить и ее также)?"

"Cedric," said Athelstane, "be reasonable (будьте благоразумны; reasonable — обладающий разумом; разумный, благоразумный). The Lady Rowena does not care for me (леди Ровена не любит меня; to care — заботиться; любить, питать интерес). She loves the little finger of Wilfred more (она любит мизинец: «маленький палец» Уилфрида больше) than my whole person (чем меня целиком: «чем мою всю персону»).

ward [wɔ:d], reasonable ['ri:z(ə)nəb(ə)l], little finger ['lɪtl'fɪŋɡǝ]

"And my ward, Rowena," said Cedric, "you don't intend to leave her as well?"

"Cedric," said Athelstane, "be reasonable. The Lady Rowena does not care for me. She loves the little finger of Wilfred more than my whole person.

"There, she can tell you herself (вот же, она может сказать вам сама). No, don't blush, Rowena (нет, не краснейте, Ровена). Give me your hand instead (дайте мне вашу руку /вместо этого/). Here, Wilfred of Ivanhoe, to you, I will give (здесь, Уилфрид Айвенго, тебя я отдам) — Hey! Wilfred has disappeared (эй, Уилфрид исчез)! Unless I am just weak from hunger (если я только не ослабел от голода), I am sure he was just here (я уверен, что он только что был здесь)."

"There, she can tell you herself. No, don't blush, Rowena. Give me your hand instead. Here, Wilfred of Ivanhoe, to you, I will give — Hey! Wilfred has disappeared! Unless I am just weak from hunger, I am sure he was just here."

Everyone looked for Ivanhoe (все разыскивали Айвенго; to look for — искать), but he was gone (но он исчез; gone — пропащий, потерянный). They discovered (они обнаружили = выяснили) that an old Jew had come to Coningsburgh asking for Ivanhoe (что какой-то старый еврей пришел в Конингсбург и спрашивал Айвенго). After speaking briefly to the old man (после того, как /он/ недолго поговорил со стариком; briefly — кратко, сжато), Ivanhoe had left the castle in a great hurry together with Gurth (Айвенго покинул замок в большой спешке вместе с Гуртом; hurry — суматоха, суета; спешка, поспешность).

"Beautiful Rowena (прекрасная Ровена)," said Athelstane, "I'm sure Ivanhoe had a very good reason (я уверен, что у Айвенго есть очень веская причина; good — хороший; убедительный, обоснованный) to disappear like that (чтобы исчезнуть подобным образом) —"

"Beautiful Rowena," said Athelstane, "I'm sure Ivanhoe had a very good reason to disappear like that —"

But Rowena, who had found the whole situation very embarrassing (но Ровена, которая сочла всю эту ситуацию очень неловкой; to find — находить, обнаруживать; считать, полагать, признавать; to embarrass — беспокоить, смущать, сбивать с толку), had left the room as well (также покинула комнату). "Well, certainly women cannot be trusted (что ж, безусловно женщинам нельзя доверять; to trust — верить, доверять)!" exclaimed Athelstane. "To you I turn instead (к вам я обращаюсь, /вместо этого/), noble King Richard, as a loyal (благородный король Ричард, как верный) —"

whole [hǝʋl], embarrassing [ɪm'bærəsɪŋ], trusted ['trʌstɪd]

But Rowena, who had found the whole situation very embarrassing, had left the room as well. "Well, certainly women cannot be trusted!" exclaimed Athelstane. "To you I turn instead, noble King Richard, as a loyal —"

But King Richard was gone, too (но король Ричард тоже исчез), and no one had seen where he went (и никто не видел, куда он ушел). From Wamba, they later discovered (от Вамбы они позже узнали; to discover — обнаруживать, раскрывать, узнавать) that he had gone to find the old Jew (что тот ушел отыскать того самого старого еврея) who had come to see Ivanhoe (который приходил повидаться с Айвенго). The King and the Jew had then mounted their horses (король и еврей затем вскочили/сели на своих коней) and ridden off in the same direction as Ivanhoe and Gurth (и ускакали в том же самом направлении, что и Айвенго с Гуртом; same — тот /же/ самый; одинаковый).
