The heat in the street was terrible: and the airlessness, the bustle and the plaster, scaffolding, bricks, and dust all about him, and that special Petersburg stench, so familiar to all who are unable to get out of town in summer--all worked painfully upon the young man's already overwrought nerves.

거리의 열기는 끔찍했다. 답답한 공기, 소란스러움, 그리고 사방에 널린 회반죽, 비계, 벽돌, 먼지, 그리고 여름에 도시를 벗어날 수 없는 모든 이들에게 너무나 익숙한 그 특유의 페테르부르크 악취—이 모든 것이 이미 극도로 예민해진 젊은이의 신경을 고통스럽게 자극했다.

The insufferable stench from the pot-houses, which are particularly numerous in that part of the town, and the drunken men whom he met continually, although it was a working day, completed the revolting misery of the picture.

그 동네에 유독 많은 선술집에서 풍겨 나오는 참을 수 없는 악취와, 평일임에도 불구하고 끊임없이 마주치는 술 취한 사람들이 그 역겨운 비참함의 그림을 완성시켰다.

An expression of the profoundest disgust gleamed for a moment in the young man's refined face.

젊은이의 세련된 얼굴에 잠시 깊은 혐오감의 표정이 스쳐 지나갔다.

He was, by the way, exceptionally handsome, above the average in height, slim, well-built, with beautiful dark eyes and dark brown hair.

그는 그런데, 유난히 잘생긴 외모를 지녔는데, 키는 평균 이상이었고, 날씬하고 체격이 좋았으며, 아름다운 검은 눈과 짙은 갈색 머리카락을 가지고 있었다.

Soon he sank into deep thought, or more accurately speaking into a complete blankness of mind; he walked along not observing what was about him and not caring to observe it.

이윽고 그는 깊은 생각에 잠겼다. 더 정확히 말하자면 완전한 정신적 공백 상태에 빠져들었다. 그는 주변에서 일어나는 일을 관찰하지도, 관찰하려 하지도 않으며 걸어갔다.

From time to time, he would mutter something, from the habit of talking to himself, to which he had just confessed.

때때로 그는 혼잣말을 하는 습관으로 무언가를 중얼거렸는데, 그 습관은 그가 방금 전에 인정한 것이었다.

At these moments he would become conscious that his ideas were sometimes in a tangle and that he was very weak; for two days he had scarcely tasted food.

그런 순간에 그는 자신의 생각이 때로는 뒤엉켜 있다는 것과 자신이 매우 허약하다는 것을 의식하게 되었다. 이틀 동안 그는 음식을 거의 입에 대지 못했던 것이다.

He was so badly dressed that even a man accustomed to shabbiness would have been ashamed to be seen in the street in such rags.

그는 너무나 형편없이 차려입고 있어서, 남루함에 익숙한 사람조차도 그런 누더기 차림으로 거리에 나서는 것을 부끄러워했을 것이다.

In that quarter of the town, however, scarcely any shortcoming in dress would have created surprise.

그러나 그 동네에서는 옷차림의 어떤 결함도 거의 놀라움을 자아내지 않았을 것이다.
