Dracula — Page 6

English → Korean CHAPTER I Level 7/10

" She smiled, and gave some message to an elderly man in white shirt-sleeves, who had followed her to the door.

" 그녀는 미소를 지으며, 흰 셔츠 소매를 걷어 올린 노인에게 무언가 전갈을 전했는데, 그 노인은 그녀를 따라 문까지 왔었다.

He went, but immediately returned with a letter:--

그는 갔다가, 즉시 편지 한 통을 들고 돌아왔다:--

"My Friend.--Welcome to the Carpathians.

"나의 친구에게.--카르파티아에 오신 것을 환영합니다.

I am anxiously expecting you.

나는 당신을 간절히 기다리고 있습니다.

Sleep well to-night.

오늘 밤 편히 주무십시오.

At three to-morrow the diligence will start for Bukovina; a place on it is kept for you.

내일 세 시에 부코비나행 역마차가 출발할 것입니다; 그 마차에 당신을 위한 자리가 마련되어 있습니다.

At the Borgo Pass my carriage will await you and will bring you to me.

보르고 고개에서 나의 마차가 당신을 기다렸다가 나에게로 데려다 줄 것입니다.

I trust that your journey from London has been a happy one, and that you will enjoy your stay in my beautiful land.

런던에서의 여정이 즐거우셨기를 바라며, 나의 아름다운 땅에서의 체류도 즐기시길 바랍니다.

"Your friend, "DRACULA."

"당신의 친구, "드라큘라."

_4 May._--I found that my landlord had got a letter from the Count, directing him to secure the best place on the coach for me; but on making inquiries as to details he seemed somewhat reticent, and pretended that he could not understand my German.

_5월 4일._--나는 내 집주인이 백작으로부터 편지를 받았다는 것을 알았는데, 그 편지에는 마차에서 나를 위해 가장 좋은 자리를 확보하라는 지시가 담겨 있었다; 그러나 세부 사항에 대해 물어보니 그는 다소 말을 아끼는 것 같았고, 내 독일어를 이해하지 못하는 척했다.

This could not be true, because up to then he had understood it perfectly; at least, he answered my questions exactly as if he did.

이것은 사실일 리 없었는데, 왜냐하면 그때까지 그는 독일어를 완벽하게 이해했기 때문이다; 적어도, 그는 마치 이해하는 것처럼 내 질문에 정확히 대답했었다.

He and his wife, the old lady who had received me, looked at each other in a frightened sort of way.

그와 그의 아내, 즉 나를 맞이했던 그 노부인은 겁에 질린 듯한 표정으로 서로를 바라보았다.

He mumbled out that the money had been sent in a letter, and that was all he knew.

그는 돈이 편지에 동봉되어 보내졌다고 중얼거렸고, 그것이 그가 아는 전부였다.

When I asked him if he knew Count Dracula, and could tell me anything of his castle, both he and his wife crossed themselves, and, saying that they knew nothing at all, simply refused to speak further.

내가 드라큘라 백작을 아는지, 그리고 그의 성에 대해 무언가 말해줄 수 있는지 물었을 때, 그와 그의 아내 둘 다 성호를 그었고, 아무것도 모른다고 말하며 더 이상 말하기를 단호히 거부했다.
