Coniston — Volume 01 — Page 10
Once a week in summer she went to Brampton, to the Social library there, and sat at the feet of that Miss Lucretia Penniman of whom Brampton has ever been so proud--Lucretia Penniman, one of the first to sound the clarion note for the intellectual independence of American women; who wrote the "Hymn to Coniston"; who, to the awe of her townspeople, went out into the great world and became editress of a famous woman's journal, and knew Longfellow and Hawthorne and Bryant.
여름에 그녀는 일주일에 한 번 브램프턴으로 가서 그곳의 소셜 도서관을 찾았고, 브램프턴이 언제나 자랑스럽게 여겨 온 루크레티아 페니먼 양의 발치에 앉았다--루크레티아 페니먼, 미국 여성의 지적 독립을 위한 나팔 소리를 처음으로 울린 이들 중 하나로, "코니스턴 찬가"를 썼으며, 고향 사람들을 경탄케 하며 넓은 세상으로 나가 유명한 여성 잡지의 편집장이 되었고, 롱펠로와 호손과 브라이언트를 알았던 인물이다.
Miss Lucretia it was who started the Brampton Social Library, and filled it with such books as both sexes might read with profit.
브램프턴 소셜 도서관을 창설하고, 남녀 모두가 유익하게 읽을 수 있는 책들로 그것을 채운 이가 바로 루크레티아 양이었다.
Never was there a stricter index than hers.
그녀보다 더 엄격한 목록은 일찍이 없었다.
Cynthia, Miss Lucretia loved, and the training of that mind was the pleasantest task of her life.
루크레티아 양은 신시아를 사랑했으며, 그 정신을 훈련시키는 일은 그녀 삶에서 가장 즐거운 과업이었다.
Curiosity as a factor has never, perhaps, been given its proper weight by philosophers.
호기심이라는 요소는 아마도 철학자들에게 그에 마땅한 비중을 부여받은 적이 없었다.
Besides being fatal to a certain domestic animal, as an instigating force it has brought joy and sorrow into the lives of men and women, and made and marred careers.
어떤 집 안의 동물에게 치명적인 것이었을 뿐 아니라, 촉발하는 힘으로서 호기심은 남녀의 삶에 기쁨과 슬픔을 가져다주었고, 인생을 만들기도 하고 망치기도 했다.
And curiosity now laid hold of Cynthia Ware.
그리고 이제 호기심이 신시아 웨어를 사로잡았다.
Why in the world she should ever have been curious about Jethro Bass is a mystery to many, for the two of them were as far apart as the poles.
도대체 그녀가 왜 제스로 배스에 대해 호기심을 가지게 되었는지는 많은 이들에게 수수께끼인데, 두 사람은 극과 극처럼 멀리 떨어진 존재였기 때문이다.
