I had everything in readiness; I held Moscow in my hand-like this!

我把一切都准备好了，瞧，我把莫斯科掌握是牢牢的！

This is because everything moves in a fluid continuum of completion and the layers of readiness dont always line up as they need to.

这是因为一切都处于易变的连续统一体之中，准备就绪的层面并不总是按它们需要的程度排在一起。

Everything is in readiness.

一切准备就绪。
