A Scandal in Bohemia
Capítulo 1, Página 8
"Why,
indeed?"
murmured
Holmes.
"Your
Majesty
had
not
spoken
before
I
knew
I
was
speaking
to
Wilhelm
Gottsreich
Sigismond
von
Ormstein,
Grand
Duke
of
Cassel-Felstein,
and
King
of
Bohemia."
"You
understand,"
said
our
visitor,
sitting
down
again
and
touching
his
forehead,
"I
am
not
used
to
doing
this
myself.
But
the
matter
was
so
delicate
I
could
not
trust
an
agent
without
risking
my
position.
I
came
from
Prague
to
see
you."
"Then,
please
consult,"
said
Holmes,
closing
his
eyes
again.
"The
facts
are
these:
About
five
years
ago,
on
a
long
visit
to
Warsaw,
I
met
the
famous
adventuress,
Irene
Adler.
You
must
know
the
name."
"Please
look
her
up
in
my
index,
Doctor,"
murmured
Holmes
without
opening
his
eyes.
He
had
a
system
of
keeping
all
information,
so
it
was
hard
to
mention
something
he
did
not
know.
I
found
her
biography
between
a
rabbi
and
a
commander
who
wrote
about
deep-sea
fish.
"Let
me
see!"
said
Holmes.
"Hum!
Born
in
New
Jersey
in
1858.
Contralto—hum!
La
Scala,
hum!
Prima
donna
Imperial
Opera
of
Warsaw—yes!
Retired
from
opera—ha!
Living
in
London—quite
so!
Your
Majesty,
as
I
understand,
got
involved
with
this
young
lady,
wrote
her
some
letters,
and
now
wants
them
back."
"Exactly.
But
how—"
"Was
there
a
secret
marriage?"
