Bleak House — Page 2
Fog in the eyes and throats of ancient Greenwich pensioners, wheezing by the firesides of their wards; fog in the stem and bowl of the afternoon pipe of the wrathful skipper, down in his close cabin; fog cruelly pinching the toes and fingers of his shivering little 'prentice boy on deck.
오래된 그리니치 연금 수급자들의 눈과 목구멍 속에 낀 안개, 그들이 머무는 병동의 난롯가에서 쌕쌕거리며; 꽉 막힌 선실 아래, 성마른 선장의 오후 파이프 대롱과 그릇 속에 낀 안개; 갑판 위에서 떨고 있는 어린 견습 소년의 발가락과 손가락을 잔인하게 꼬집는 안개.
Chance people on the bridges peeping over the parapets into a nether sky of fog, with fog all round them, as if they were up in a balloon and hanging in the misty clouds.
다리 위의 우연한 행인들이 난간 너머로 안개로 가득 찬 아래 하늘을 들여다보고, 마치 기구를 타고 올라가 안개 낀 구름 속에 매달려 있는 것처럼 사방이 안개로 둘러싸여 있다.
Gas looming through the fog in divers places in the streets, much as the sun may, from the spongey fields, be seen to loom by husbandman and ploughboy.
거리 곳곳에서 안개를 뚫고 희미하게 떠오르는 가스등, 마치 해면 같은 들판에서 농부와 쟁기질하는 소년에게 태양이 희미하게 보이듯이.
Most of the shops lighted two hours before their time—as the gas seems to know, for it has a haggard and unwilling look.
대부분의 상점들이 정해진 시간보다 두 시간 일찍 불을 밝혔는데, 가스등도 이를 아는 듯 핼쑥하고 마지못한 표정을 짓고 있다.
The raw afternoon is rawest, and the dense fog is densest, and the muddy streets are muddiest near that leaden-headed old obstruction, appropriate ornament for the threshold of a leaden-headed old corporation, Temple Bar.
을씨년스러운 오후가 가장 을씨년스럽고, 짙은 안개가 가장 짙으며, 진흙투성이 거리가 가장 진창인 곳은 둔중한 머리의 오래된 장애물, 둔중한 머리의 낡은 법인의 문턱에 어울리는 장식인 템플 바 근처이다.
And hard by Temple Bar, in Lincoln's Inn Hall, at the very heart of the fog, sits the Lord High Chancellor in his High Court of Chancery.
그리고 템플 바 바로 옆, 링컨스 인 홀에서, 안개의 바로 한복판에, 대법관이 형평법 고등법원에 앉아 있다.
Never can there come fog too thick, never can there come mud and mire too deep, to assort with the groping and floundering condition which this High Court of Chancery, most pestilent of hoary sinners, holds this day in the sight of heaven and earth.
아무리 짙은 안개도, 아무리 깊은 진흙과 수렁도, 오늘 하늘과 땅이 보는 앞에서 이 형평법 고등법원, 그 유구한 죄인들 중 가장 해로운 이 법원이 처해 있는 더듬고 허우적거리는 상태와 어울리기에는 결코 부족하지 않을 것이다.
