He rested on the waves, he trod the water--in fact, did everything he could think of, in order not to fatigue himself, and to reserve strength enough to reach land.

그는 파도 위에서 쉬고, 물 위를 걸었으며, 사실 자신을 지치지 않게 하고 육지에 닿을 만한 충분한 힘을 비축하기 위해 생각할 수 있는 모든 것을 했다.

He heard Clara sigh, and felt her shudder convulsively, and he pressed her more closely to him.

그는 클라라가 한숨을 쉬는 것을 듣고, 그녀가 경련적으로 떠는 것을 느꼈으며, 그녀를 더욱 가까이 끌어안았다.

Now and then a wave rolled over them, the current lifted them; the water, although deep, was so clear that for a moment he imagined he saw the shoals of mackerel glittering, or Leviathan himself ready to swallow them.

이따금 파도가 그들 위로 밀려들었고, 조류가 그들을 들어올렸다. 물은 깊었지만 너무나 맑아서 잠시 동안 그는 반짝이는 고등어 떼가 보이는 것 같았고, 혹은 레비아탄이 그들을 삼키려 준비하고 있는 것 같았다.

Now the clouds cast a shadow over the water, then again came the playing sunbeams; flocks of loudly screaming birds passed over him, and the plump and lazy wild ducks which allow themselves to be drifted by the waves rose up terrified at the sight of the swimmer.

구름이 물 위에 그늘을 드리우다가, 다시 햇살이 장난스럽게 비쳐들었다. 시끄럽게 울어대는 새 떼가 그의 위로 지나갔고, 파도에 몸을 맡기는 통통하고 게으른 청둥오리들은 헤엄치는 사람을 보고 겁에 질려 날아올랐다.

He began to feel his strength decreasing, but he was only a few cable lengths' distance from the shore, and help was coming, for a boat was approaching him.

그는 힘이 떨어지는 것을 느끼기 시작했지만, 해안까지는 불과 몇 케이블 길이밖에 남지 않았고, 한 척의 배가 다가오고 있어 도움이 오고 있었다.

At this moment he distinctly saw a white staring figure under the water--a wave lifted him up, and he came nearer to the figure--he felt a violent shock, and everything became dark around him.

바로 그 순간 그는 물속에서 하얗게 응시하는 형체를 뚜렷이 보았다. 파도가 그를 들어올렸고, 그는 그 형체에 가까워졌다. 그는 강렬한 충격을 느꼈고, 주위의 모든 것이 어두워졌다.

On the sand reef lay the wreck of a ship, which was covered with water at high tide; the white figure head rested against the anchor, the sharp iron edge of which rose just above the surface.

모래톱 위에는 난파선이 놓여 있었는데, 만조 때는 물에 잠겼다. 하얀 선수상은 닻에 기대어 있었고, 닻의 날카로운 쇠 모서리는 수면 바로 위로 솟아 있었다.
