Sherlock Holmes was a man, however, who, when he had an unsolved problem upon his mind, would go for days, and even for a week, without rest, turning it over, rearranging his facts, looking at it from every point of view until he had either fathomed it or convinced himself that his data were insufficient.
Sin embargo, Sherlock Holmes era un hombre que cuando tenía en la cabeza un problema sin resolver, podía pasar días, y hasta una semana, sin dormir, dándole vueltas, reordenando los datos, considerándolos desde todos los puntos de vista, hasta que lograba resolverlo o se convencía de que los datos eran insuficientes.
