Espero hacerlo pronto, y a mi manera: pero es asunto delicado, ya que hemos de vérnoslas con un hombre astuto y desesperado al que presta ayuda, como he podido comprobar, un cómplice de prendas no menos formidables.
This I expect very shortly to do. I have good hopes of managing it through my own arrangements; but it is a thing which needs delicate handling, for we have a shrewd and desperate man to deal with, who is supported, as I have had occasion to prove, by another who is as clever as himself.
