I had at first a rather chequered journey: got involved in gardens, butted into houses, and had even once the misfortune to awake a sleeping family, the father of which, as I suppose, menaced me from the window with a blunderbuss.
Поначалу путешествие мое оказалось полно превратностей: я плутал в огородах, натыкался на стены домов, а один раз даже имел несчастье разбудить целую семью, и кто-то, должно быть, отец, появился в окне и прицелился в меня из мушкетона.

There are spots of darkness on your horizon, though they will disappear when you become completely stupid. But a long and chequered path lies before you, and of this I am glad.
О, у вас есть еще черные точки на горизонте; они пройдут, когда вы поглупеете окончательно, что недалеко; но всё-таки вам предстоит длинный и разнообразный путь, не скажу веселый, и этому рад.

Through the chequered light and shade of the snow-tunnels (horrible caverns of rude timbering) we ground our way, halting now and again to allow a downtrain to pass.
Мы прокладывали путь сквозь пестроту светотени туннелей (кошмарные пещеры, сложенные из неотесанных бревен), время от времени останавливаясь, чтобы пропустить поезд, идущий вниз.

But in spite of the brilliant sunlight and the green fans of the trees waving in the soothing sea-breeze, the world was a confusion, blurred with drifting black and red phantasms, until I was out of earshot of the house in the chequered wall.
Несмотря на яркое солнце и зеленые веера колеблемых морским ветром пальм, весь мир казался мне мрачным хаосом, полным черных и кровавых призраков, до тех пор, пока я не отошел далеко от дома с каменной оградой.

He called him the "Chequered Careerist," and spoke of his patterned legs as "shivery shakys."
Он называл Хинкса «карьеристом в клеточку» и «нешуточным шутом».
