A Tale of Two Cities — Page 2
Whenever the leader made this rattle, the passenger started, as a nervous passenger might, and was disturbed in mind.
선두 말이 이 덜거덕거리는 소리를 낼 때마다, 승객은 신경질적인 승객이 그러하듯 깜짝 놀라며 마음이 불안해졌다.
There was a steaming mist in all the hollows, and it had roamed in its forlornness up the hill, like an evil spirit, seeking rest and finding none.
모든 움푹 패인 곳에는 김이 오르는 안개가 자욱하였고, 그 안개는 마치 악령처럼 쓸쓸하게 언덕 위를 떠돌며 쉴 곳을 찾았으나 찾지 못하였다.
A clammy and intensely cold mist, it made its slow way through the air in ripples that visibly followed and overspread one another, as the waves of an unwholesome sea might do.
축축하고 몹시 차가운 안개는, 마치 불결한 바다의 파도처럼 서로를 뒤따르며 덮쳐 퍼지는 물결 모양으로 공기 속을 천천히 나아갔다.
It was dense enough to shut out everything from the light of the coach-lamps but these its own workings, and a few yards of road; and the reek of the labouring horses steamed into it, as if they had made it all.
그 안개는 마차 등불의 빛으로부터 안개 자신의 움직임과 몇 야드의 도로를 제외한 모든 것을 차단할 만큼 짙었으며, 힘겹게 일하는 말들의 냄새가 마치 말들이 안개를 모두 만들어낸 것처럼 그 속으로 피어올랐다.
Two other passengers, besides the one, were plodding up the hill by the side of the mail.
그 한 명 외에 두 명의 승객이 더 우편 마차 옆에서 언덕을 터벅터벅 오르고 있었다.
All three were wrapped to the cheekbones and over the ears, and wore jack-boots.
세 명 모두 광대뼈까지, 그리고 귀 위까지 몸을 감싸고 있었으며, 긴 장화를 신고 있었다.
Not one of the three could have said, from anything he saw, what either of the other two was like; and each was hidden under almost as many wrappers from the eyes of the mind, as from the eyes of the body, of his two companions.
세 명 중 어느 누구도 자신이 본 것만으로는 나머지 두 명이 어떻게 생겼는지 말할 수 없었으며, 각자는 두 동행자의 육체의 눈으로부터와 마찬가지로 마음의 눈으로부터도 거의 같은 수의 감싸개 아래 숨겨져 있었다.
In those days, travellers were very shy of being confidential on a short notice, for anybody on the road might be a robber or in league with robbers.
그 시절에는, 여행자들이 갑작스럽게 속내를 털어놓는 것을 매우 꺼렸는데, 길 위의 누구든 강도이거나 강도와 한패일 수 있었기 때문이다.
