2. 'Thank you, my man (спасибо), says Captain Smollett. 'I'll ask you later on, to give us a help (я спрошу вас = обращусь к вам позднее, чтобы дать нам помощь = если будет нужна помощь). You may go (можете идти).
3. I was surprised at the coolness with which John avowed his knowledge of the island (я удивился хладнокровию, с каким Джон открыто признал свое знакомство с островом); and I own I was half-frighten' (и, признаться, я был полумертв от страха: «полунапуган»; frighten' = frightened) when I saw him drawing nearer to myself (когда увидел, как он приближается ко мне). He did not know to be sure, that I had overheard his council from the apple barrel (он не знал, конечно, что я подслушал его совещание /с пиратами/ из яблочной бочки), and yet I had, by this time, taken such a horror his cruelty, duplicity, and power (и все же, к тому времени, я взял такой ужас = он внушал мне такой ужас своей жестокостью, двуличностью и властью), that I could scarce conceal a shudder (что я мог с трудом скрыть дрожь) when he laid his hand upon my arm (когда он положил руку мне на плечо).

1. 'Ah, says he, 'this here is a sweet spot, this island (этот остров здесь — славное место; sweet — сладкий, дорогой, милый) — a sweet spot for a lad to get ashore on (славное место для парня, чтобы сойти на берег). You'll bathe, and you'll climb trees, and you'll hunt goats, you will (ты будешь купаться, ты будешь карабкаться на деревья, охотиться на /диких/ коз, да); and you'll get aloft them hills like a goat yourself (и ты будешь сам взбираться на холмы, словно коза;
