English → Korean CHAPTER I. Mrs. Rachel Lynde Is Surprised Level 6/10

And yet here was Matthew Cuthbert, at half-past three on the afternoon of a busy day, placidly driving over the hollow and up the hill;

그런데 바로 여기, 매슈 커스버트가 바쁜 하루의 오후 세 시 반에, 조용히 마차를 몰아 움푹 패인 곳을 지나 언덕을 오르고 있었다;

moreover, he wore a white collar and his best suit of clothes, which was plain proof that he was going out of Avonlea;

게다가, 그는 흰 칼라를 달고 가장 좋은 옷을 차려입고 있었는데, 이는 그가 에이번리를 떠나는 길이라는 분명한 증거였다;

and he had the buggy and the sorrel mare, which betokened that he was going a considerable distance.

그리고 그는 마차와 밤색 암말을 이끌고 있었는데, 이는 그가 상당히 먼 거리를 가고 있음을 나타냈다.

Now, where was Matthew Cuthbert going and why was he going there?

자, 매슈 커스버트는 어디를 가고 있었으며 왜 그곳에 가고 있었던 걸까?

Had it been any other man in Avonlea, Mrs. Rachel, deftly putting this and that together, might have given a pretty good guess as to both questions.

에이번리의 다른 남자였다면, 레이첼 부인은 이것저것을 능숙하게 종합하여 두 질문 모두에 꽤 그럴듯한 답을 내놓을 수 있었을 것이다.

But Matthew so rarely went from home that it must be something pressing and unusual which was taking him;

그러나 매슈는 집을 떠나는 일이 매우 드물었기에 그를 나서게 한 것은 분명 급하고 예사롭지 않은 일임에 틀림없었다;

he was the shyest man alive and hated to have to go among strangers or to any place where he might have to talk.

그는 세상에서 가장 수줍음을 많이 타는 사람이었고, 낯선 사람들 사이에 가거나 말을 해야 할지도 모르는 어떤 장소에 가는 것을 몹시 싫어했다.

Matthew, dressed up with a white collar and driving in a buggy, was something that didn't happen often.

흰 칼라를 차려입고 마차를 모는 매슈의 모습은 좀처럼 일어나지 않는 일이었다.

Mrs. Rachel, ponder as she might, could make nothing of it and her afternoon's enjoyment was spoiled.

레이첼 부인은 아무리 곰곰이 생각해 봐도 아무것도 알아낼 수 없었고, 그녀의 오후 즐거움은 망쳐버렸다.

"I'll just step over to Green Gables after tea and find out from Marilla where he's gone and why," the worthy woman finally concluded.

"차를 마신 후에 그린 게이블즈에 잠깐 들러 마릴라에게 그가 어디에 왜 갔는지 알아봐야겠어," 하고 그 훌륭한 여인은 마침내 결론을 내렸다.
