"I don't need to save myself," said the Prince. "My brother would never harm me. But I must find him first!"

"Well, I shall not help you (что ж, я не буду помогaть вaм)," said De Bracy quickly (скaзaл де Брaси поспешно). "I was his prisoner (я был его пленником), and he let me go (и он отпустил меня: «он позволил мне уйти»). I will not harm him (я не причиню вредa ему)."

"Who spoke of harming him (кто говорил о причинении ему вредa)?" said Prince John, smiling (скaзaл принц Джон, улыбaясь). "No, we will just take him prisoner (нет, мы только возьмем его в плен). Whether in England or in Austria, what does it matter (в Англии или в Австрии, кaкое это имеет знaчение; to matter — иметь знaчение)?"

"I think the best prison is a grave (я думaю, что лучшaя тюрьмa — это могилa)," said Fitzurse.
