Cranford — Page 12

English → Korean CHAPTER I. Level 7/10

He nodded and smiled to his acquaintances; but he shook hands with none until he had helped Miss Brown to unfurl her umbrella, had relieved her of her prayer-book, and had waited patiently till she, with trembling nervous hands, had taken up her gown to walk through the wet roads.

그는 아는 사람들에게 고개를 끄덕이며 미소를 지었다. 하지만 그는 브라운 양이 우산을 펼치는 것을 도와주고, 그녀의 기도서를 받아 들고, 그녀가 떨리는 긴장된 손으로 젖은 길을 걸어가기 위해 가운을 추켜올릴 때까지 참을성 있게 기다린 후에야 비로소 누구와도 악수를 하였다.

I wonder what the Cranford ladies did with Captain Brown at their parties.

크랜퍼드의 숙녀들이 파티에서 브라운 대위를 어떻게 대했을지 궁금하다.

We had often rejoiced, in former days, that there was no gentleman to be attended to, and to find conversation for, at the card-parties.

예전에는 카드 파티에서 신경 써야 할 남자 손님도 없고, 대화 상대를 찾아줄 필요도 없다는 사실에 우리는 종종 기뻐하곤 했다.

We had congratulated ourselves upon the snugness of the evenings; and, in our love for gentility, and distaste of mankind, we had almost persuaded ourselves that to be a man was to be "vulgar"; so that when I found my friend and hostess, Miss Jenkyns, was going to have a party in my honour, and that Captain and the Miss Browns were invited, I wondered much what would be the course of the evening.

우리는 아늑한 저녁 시간에 대해 스스로를 축하하곤 했으며, 품위에 대한 애착과 남성에 대한 반감으로 인해, 남자라는 것은 곧 "천박한" 것이라고 스스로를 거의 설득하기에 이르렀다. 그래서 나의 친구이자 안주인인 젠킨스 양이 나를 위한 파티를 열 예정이고, 브라운 대위와 브라운 양들이 초대되었다는 것을 알았을 때, 나는 그 저녁이 어떻게 진행될지 몹시 궁금하였다.

Card-tables, with green baize tops, were set out by daylight, just as usual; it was the third week in November, so the evenings closed in about four.

초록색 나사 천을 덮은 카드 테이블들이 여느 때처럼 낮 동안에 놓여 있었다. 11월 셋째 주였기 때문에 저녁은 네 시쯤이면 어두워졌다.

Candles, and clean packs of cards, were arranged on each table.

각 테이블에는 양초와 새 카드 묶음들이 가지런히 놓여 있었다.

The fire was made up; the neat maid-servant had received her last directions; and there we stood, dressed in our best, each with a candle-lighter in our hands, ready to dart at the candles as soon as the first knock came.

불은 피워 놓았고, 단정한 하녀는 마지막 지시를 받은 상태였다. 그리고 우리는 가장 좋은 옷을 차려입고, 각자 손에 양초 점화기를 들고, 첫 번째 노크 소리가 들리는 즉시 양초에 불을 붙이려고 준비하며 그곳에 서 있었다.
