Dracula — Page 8
Finally she went down on her knees and implored me not to go; at least to wait a day or two before starting.
마침내 그녀는 무릎을 꿇고 나에게 가지 말라고, 적어도 출발하기 전에 하루 이틀은 기다려 달라고 간청했다.
It was all very ridiculous but I did not feel comfortable.
모든 것이 매우 우스꽝스러웠지만 나는 편안함을 느끼지 못했다.
However, there was business to be done, and I could allow nothing to interfere with it.
하지만 처리해야 할 일이 있었고, 나는 그 어떤 것도 그것을 방해하도록 내버려 둘 수 없었다.
I therefore tried to raise her up, and said, as gravely as I could, that I thanked her, but my duty was imperative, and that I must go.
그래서 나는 그녀를 일으켜 세우려 하면서, 최대한 엄숙하게, 감사하지만 나의 의무는 절박하며 반드시 가야 한다고 말했다.
She then rose and dried her eyes, and taking a crucifix from her neck offered it to me.
그러자 그녀는 일어나 눈물을 닦고, 목에서 십자가상을 꺼내 나에게 건네주었다.
I did not know what to do, for, as an English Churchman, I have been taught to regard such things as in some measure idolatrous, and yet it seemed so ungracious to refuse an old lady meaning so well and in such a state of mind.
나는 어떻게 해야 할지 몰랐다. 영국 국교도로서 나는 그런 것들을 어느 정도 우상숭배적인 것으로 여기도록 교육받아 왔지만, 그토록 선의를 지닌 노부인을 그런 심리 상태에서 거절하는 것은 너무나 무례한 일처럼 보였다.
She saw, I suppose, the doubt in my face, for she put the rosary round my neck, and said, "For your mother's sake," and went out of the room.
그녀는 아마도 내 얼굴에서 망설임을 보았던 것 같다. 그녀는 묵주를 내 목에 걸어주며 "어머니를 위해서"라고 말하고 방에서 나갔다.
I am writing up this part of the diary whilst I am waiting for the coach, which is, of course, late; and the crucifix is still round my neck.
나는 마차를 기다리는 동안 일기의 이 부분을 쓰고 있다. 마차는 물론 늦고 있으며, 십자가상은 여전히 내 목에 걸려 있다.
Whether it is the old lady's fear, or the many ghostly traditions of this place, or the crucifix itself, I do not know, but I am not feeling nearly as easy in my mind as usual.
그것이 노부인의 두려움 때문인지, 이 장소의 수많은 귀신 같은 전설들 때문인지, 아니면 십자가상 자체 때문인지 나는 모르겠지만, 평소처럼 마음이 편하지가 않다.
