A Tale of Two Cities — Page 3
It is likely enough that in the rough outhouses of some tillers of the heavy lands adjacent to Paris, there were sheltered from the weather that very day, rude carts, bespattered with rustic mire, snuffed about by pigs, and roosted in by poultry, which the Farmer, Death, had already set apart to be his tumbrils of the Revolution.
파리 인근의 무거운 땅을 경작하는 일부 농부들의 허름한 헛간 안에는, 바로 그날, 시골의 진흙투성이로 뒤덮이고 돼지들이 킁킁거리며 냄새를 맡고 가금류가 깃들어 쉬는 투박한 수레들이 날씨를 피해 보관되어 있었을 것이 분명하며, 그 수레들은 농부인 죽음이 이미 혁명의 짐수레로 쓰기 위해 따로 마련해 둔 것들이었다.
But that Woodman and that Farmer, though they work unceasingly, work silently, and no one heard them as they went about with muffled tread: the rather, forasmuch as to entertain any suspicion that they were awake, was to be atheistical and traitorous.
그러나 그 나무꾼과 그 농부는 쉬지 않고 일하면서도 묵묵히 일하였고, 그들이 발소리를 죽이며 돌아다닐 때 아무도 그들의 소리를 듣지 못하였다. 더욱이 그들이 깨어 있다는 어떠한 의심을 품는 것 자체가 신을 부정하고 반역을 저지르는 일로 여겨졌기 때문이다.
In England, there was scarcely an amount of order and protection to justify much national boasting.
영국에서는 국가적 자랑을 정당화할 만한 질서와 보호가 거의 갖추어져 있지 않았다.
