Great Expectations — Page 8
On the edge of the river I could faintly make out the only two black things in all the prospect that seemed to be standing upright; one of these was the beacon by which the sailors steered,—like an unhooped cask upon a pole,—an ugly thing when you were near it; the other, a gibbet, with some chains hanging to it which had once held a pirate.
강가에서 나는 온 풍경 중에서 똑바로 서 있는 것처럼 보이는 두 개의 검은 것만을 희미하게 알아볼 수 있었다. 그중 하나는 선원들이 항해할 때 기준으로 삼는 등대였는데, 마치 장대 위에 올려진 테 없는 통처럼 생긴, 가까이 다가가면 흉측한 물건이었다. 다른 하나는 교수대로, 한때 해적을 매달았던 쇠사슬이 몇 개 걸려 있었다.
The man was limping on towards this latter, as if he were the pirate come to life, and come down, and going back to hook himself up again.
그 남자는 마치 살아 돌아온 해적이 내려와서 다시 자신을 걸어 놓으러 가는 것처럼, 절뚝거리며 그 교수대를 향해 나아가고 있었다.
It gave me a terrible turn when I thought so; and as I saw the cattle lifting their heads to gaze after him, I wondered whether they thought so too.
그런 생각이 들자 나는 몹시 섬뜩해졌다. 그리고 소들이 고개를 들어 그를 바라보는 것을 보면서, 나는 소들도 같은 생각을 하는 건 아닐까 하고 궁금해졌다.
I looked all round for the horrible young man, and could see no signs of him.
나는 그 끔찍한 젊은 남자를 찾아 사방을 둘러보았지만, 그의 흔적은 전혀 찾을 수 없었다.
But now I was frightened again, and ran home without stopping.
하지만 이제 나는 다시 겁에 질려, 멈추지 않고 집으로 달려갔다.
