Cranford — Page 13
Parties in Cranford were solemn festivities, making the ladies feel gravely elated as they sat together in their best dresses.
크랜퍼드의 파티는 엄숙한 축제였으며, 숙녀들은 가장 좋은 드레스를 입고 함께 앉아 진지하게 들뜬 기분을 느꼈다.
As soon as three had arrived, we sat down to "Preference," I being the unlucky fourth.
세 명이 도착하자마자 우리는 "프레퍼런스" 게임을 시작하려고 자리에 앉았고, 나는 불운한 네 번째 사람이었다.
The next four comers were put down immediately to another table; and presently the tea-trays, which I had seen set out in the store-room as I passed in the morning, were placed each on the middle of a card-table.
다음으로 온 네 명은 곧바로 다른 테이블에 배치되었고, 얼마 지나지 않아 내가 아침에 지나치며 창고에 차려진 것을 보았던 차 쟁반들이 각각 카드 테이블 한가운데에 놓였다.
The china was delicate egg-shell; the old-fashioned silver glittered with polishing; but the eatables were of the slightest description.
도자기는 달걀 껍데기처럼 섬세했고, 구식 은그릇은 닦아서 반짝였지만, 먹을 것은 아주 소박한 것들이었다.
While the trays were yet on the tables, Captain and the Miss Browns came in; and I could see that, somehow or other, the Captain was a favourite with all the ladies present.
쟁반들이 아직 테이블 위에 있는 동안 브라운 대위와 브라운 양들이 들어왔고, 어쩐지 대위가 그 자리에 있는 모든 숙녀들에게 인기가 있다는 것을 나는 알 수 있었다.
Ruffled brows were smoothed, sharp voices lowered at his approach.
그가 다가오자 찌푸린 이마가 펴지고 날카로운 목소리가 낮아졌다.
Miss Brown looked ill, and depressed almost to gloom.
브라운 양은 아파 보였고, 거의 우울할 정도로 침울해 보였다.
Miss Jessie smiled as usual, and seemed nearly as popular as her father.
제시 양은 평소처럼 미소를 지었고, 아버지만큼이나 인기가 있는 것 같았다.
He immediately and quietly assumed the man's place in the room; attended to every one's wants, lessened the pretty maid-servant's labour by waiting on empty cups and bread-and-butterless ladies; and yet did it all in so easy and dignified a manner, and so much as if it were a matter of course for the strong to attend to the weak, that he was a true man throughout.
그는 즉시 그리고 조용히 방 안에서 남자의 역할을 맡았고, 모든 사람의 필요를 살피며 빈 찻잔과 버터 바른 빵이 없는 숙녀들의 시중을 들어 예쁜 하녀의 수고를 덜어 주었다. 그러면서도 그 모든 것을 너무나 자연스럽고 품위 있는 태도로, 마치 강한 자가 약한 자를 돌보는 것이 당연한 일인 양 행하였으니, 그는 끝까지 진정한 남자였다.
