He shall have her, and I'll be the first man, when the knot's tied hard and fast, to tell 'em what they've gained and what I've helped 'em to.
Пусть она достанется ему, а когда узел будет затянут накрепко, я первый доложу этим молодчикам, чего они достигли, да еще с моей помощью!

The old lady tied a knot in her handkerchief, sprinkled some eau-de-Cologne on it, sniffed at it, and rubbed her temples with it, drank some tea, and, being still under the influence of the cherrybay drops, fell asleep again.
Барыня завязала в носовом платке узелок, налила на него одеколону, понюхала, потерла себе виски, накушалась чаю и, будучи еще под влиянием лавровишневых капель, заснула опять.
