Besides this, there were nearly three hundred very fine pearls, twelve of which were set in a gold coronet.

除此之外，還有三百多顆精圓的珍珠，其中有十二顆珍珠是鑲在一個金項圈上的。

By the way, these last had been taken out of the chest, and were not there when I recovered it.

從櫻沼別墅拿回寶箱以后，經(jīng)過點驗，別的還全在，只缺少了這個項圈。

After we had counted our treasures we put them back into the chest and carried them to the gateway to show them to Mahomet Singh.

我們點過以后，把寶物放回箱里，又拿出堡外給莫郝米特·辛格看了一遍。

Then we solemnly renewed our oath to stand by each other and be true to our secret.

我們又重新隆重地宣誓：要團結(jié)一致謹(jǐn)守秘密。

We agreed to conceal our loot in a safe place until the country should be at peace again,

我們決定把寶箱藏匿起來，靜候大局平定以后

and then to divide it equally among ourselves.

再來平均伙分。

There was no use dividing it at present, for if gems of such value were found upon us it would cause suspicion,

當(dāng)時就把贓物分了是不妥的，因為珠寶價值太高，假若在我們身上被發(fā)現(xiàn)了，會引起別人的疑心，

and there was no privacy in the fort nor any place where we could keep them.

再說我們的住處也沒有隱蔽的地方可以收藏。

We carried the box, therefore, into the same hall where we had buried the body,

因此我們把箱子搬到埋尸的那間屋子去，

and there, under certain bricks in the best-preserved wall, we made a hollow and put our treasure.

從最完整的一面墻上拆下幾塊磚來，把箱子放進去，再把磚放回，掩蓋嚴(yán)密。

We made careful note of the place, and next day I drew four plans, one for each of us,

我們小心地記清了藏寶的地方，第二天我畫了四張圖，每人各執(zhí)一張，

and put the sign of the four of us at the bottom,

下面都寫好了四個人的簽名作為我們起誓的標(biāo)記

for we had sworn that we should each always act for all, so that none might take advantage.

從此以后我們一舉一動全要代表四個人的利益，不得獨自吞沒。

That is an oath that I can put my hand to my heart and swear that I have never broken.

我可以對天起誓，從來沒有違反過這個誓言。
