Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 907
Accordingly, he at last drew back from all men, and became a hermit; but the church tower is the only place in a great city where hermitage, office and bread can be found together.
그리하여 그는 마침내 모든 사람들로부터 물러나 은둔자가 되었다. 그러나 교회 탑은 대도시에서 은둔처와 직업과 양식을 함께 찾을 수 있는 유일한 장소였다.
So he betook himself up thither, and smoked his pipe as he made his solitary rounds.
그래서 그는 그곳으로 올라가, 홀로 순찰을 돌며 파이프 담배를 피웠다.
He looked upward and downward, and had his own thoughts, and told in his own way of what he read in books and in himself.
그는 위아래를 바라보며 자신만의 생각에 잠겼고, 책에서 읽은 것과 자신 안에서 발견한 것을 자신만의 방식으로 이야기했다.
I often lent him books--good books; and you may know by the company he keeps.
나는 종종 그에게 책을 빌려주었는데, 좋은 책들이었다. 그리고 그가 어울리는 책들을 보면 그를 알 수 있을 것이다.
He loved neither the English governess novels nor the French ones, which he called a mixture of empty wind and raisin-stalks: he wanted biographies, and descriptions of the wonders of, the world.
그는 영국의 가정교사 소설도, 프랑스 소설도 좋아하지 않았는데, 그것들을 빈 바람과 건포도 줄기의 혼합물이라고 불렀다. 그는 전기와 세상의 경이로움에 대한 묘사를 원했다.
I visited him at least once a year, generally directly after New Year's day, and then he always spoke of this and that which the change of the year had put into his head.
나는 적어도 일 년에 한 번, 대개 새해 첫날 직후에 그를 방문했으며, 그때마다 그는 해가 바뀌면서 머릿속에 떠오른 이런저런 것들에 대해 이야기했다.
I will tell the story of three of these visits, and will reproduce his own words whenever I can remember them.
나는 이 방문들 중 세 번의 이야기를 전하고, 기억할 수 있는 한 그의 말을 그대로 재현할 것이다.
FIRST VISIT
첫 번째 방문
Among the books which I had lately lent Ole, was one which had greatly rejoiced and occupied him.
내가 최근에 올레에게 빌려준 책들 중에, 그를 몹시 기쁘게 하고 마음을 사로잡은 책이 한 권 있었다.

그것은 지질학 책으로, 표석에 관한 설명이 담겨 있었다.
