Anne of Green Gables — Page 12
But reflecting that it would be a good two hours at least before his arrival she concluded to go up the road to Robert Bell's and tell the news.
하지만 그가 도착하려면 적어도 두 시간은 족히 걸릴 것이라고 생각한 그녀는 길을 따라 로버트 벨의 집으로 올라가 소식을 전하기로 결심했다.
It would certainly make a sensation second to none, and Mrs. Rachel dearly loved to make a sensation.
그것은 분명 누구도 따를 수 없는 대단한 화제가 될 것이었고, 레이첼 부인은 화제를 만드는 것을 무척이나 좋아했다.
So she took herself away, somewhat to Marilla's relief, for the latter felt her doubts and fears reviving under the influence of Mrs. Rachel's pessimism.
그래서 그녀는 자리를 떠났는데, 이는 마릴라에게 다소 안도감을 주었다. 마릴라는 레이첼 부인의 비관적인 말에 영향을 받아 자신의 의심과 두려움이 다시 살아나는 것을 느끼고 있었기 때문이다.
"Well, of all things that ever were or will be!" ejaculated Mrs. Rachel when she was safely out in the lane.
"세상에, 지금까지도 앞으로도 이런 일이 어디 있담!" 레이첼 부인은 골목길에 무사히 나서자 외쳤다.
"It does really seem as if I must be dreaming.
"정말 꿈을 꾸고 있는 것 같은 기분이에요.
Well, I'm sorry for that poor young one and no mistake.
저런, 그 불쌍한 아이가 참 안됐군요, 틀림없이.
Matthew and Marilla don't know anything about children and they'll expect him to be wiser and steadier than his own grandfather, if so be's he ever had a grandfather, which is doubtful.
매튜와 마릴라는 아이에 대해 아무것도 모르면서 그 아이가 자기 할아버지보다도 더 현명하고 듬직하기를 바랄 거예요. 할아버지가 있기나 했다면 말이지만, 그것도 의심스럽고요.
It seems uncanny to think of a child at Green Gables somehow; there's never been one there, for Matthew and Marilla were grown up when the new house was built--if they ever _were_ children, which is hard to believe when one looks at them.
그린 게이블즈에 아이가 있다고 생각하면 왠지 묘한 느낌이 드는군요. 거기에는 아이가 한 번도 없었으니까요. 매튜와 마릴라가 새 집을 지을 때는 이미 다 컸었거든요. 그들이 정말 어린아이였던 적이 있었는지도 의심스럽지만요. 그 둘을 보면 도무지 믿기지 않으니까요.
I wouldn't be in that orphan's shoes for anything.
저는 절대로 그 고아의 처지가 되고 싶지 않아요.
My, but I pity him, that's what."
정말이지, 그 아이가 불쌍하기 짝이 없어요, 그게 다예요."
So said Mrs.
레이첼 부인은 그렇게 말했다.
