Anne of Green Gables — Page 1
MATTHEW Cuthbert and the sorrel mare jogged comfortably over the eight miles to Bright River.
매튜 커스버트와 밤색 암말은 브라이트 리버까지 8마일을 편안하게 천천히 달렸다.
It was a pretty road, running along between snug farmsteads, with now and again a bit of balsamy fir wood to drive through or a hollow where wild plums hung out their filmy bloom.
아늑한 농가들 사이로 이어지는 아름다운 길이었고, 이따금 향기로운 전나무 숲을 지나거나 야생 자두꽃이 하늘하늘 피어 있는 골짜기를 지나기도 했다.
The air was sweet with the breath of many apple orchards and the meadows sloped away in the distance to horizon mists of pearl and purple; while
공기는 여러 사과 과수원의 향기로 달콤했고, 멀리 초원은 진주빛과 보랏빛 수평선의 안개 속으로 완만하게 이어졌다.
"The little birds sang as if it were / The one day of summer in all the year."
"작은 새들은 마치 일 년 중 / 단 하루뿐인 여름날인 양 노래했다."
Matthew enjoyed the drive after his own fashion, except during the moments when he met women and had to nod to them--for in Prince Edward Island you are supposed to nod to all and sundry you meet on the road whether you know them or not.
매튜는 자기 나름의 방식으로 마차 여행을 즐겼지만, 여자들을 만나 고개를 끄덕여 인사해야 할 때만큼은 그렇지 않았다. 프린스 에드워드 섬에서는 길에서 만나는 사람이면 누구에게나, 아는 사람이든 모르는 사람이든 고개를 끄덕여 인사해야 하는 법이었기 때문이다.
Matthew dreaded all women except Marilla and Mrs. Rachel; he had an uncomfortable feeling that the mysterious creatures were secretly laughing at him.
매튜는 마릴라와 레이철 부인을 제외한 모든 여자들을 두려워했다. 그 신비로운 존재들이 자신을 몰래 비웃고 있다는 불편한 느낌이 들었기 때문이다.
He may have been quite right in thinking so, for he was an odd-looking personage, with an ungainly figure and long iron-gray hair that touched his stooping shoulders, and a full, soft brown beard which he had worn ever since he was twenty.
그렇게 생각한 것이 전혀 틀리지 않았을 수도 있었다. 그는 어색한 체형에 구부정한 어깨까지 내려오는 길고 철회색 머리카락을 지닌 이상하게 생긴 사람이었고, 스무 살 때부터 줄곧 기른 숱이 많고 부드러운 갈색 수염을 달고 있었기 때문이다.
In fact, he had looked at twenty very much as he looked at sixty, lacking a little of the grayness.
사실 그는 스무 살 때도 예순 살의 지금과 거의 다를 바 없이 생겼었고, 다만 흰 기운이 조금 덜했을 뿐이었다.
