Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World — Page 2
Likewise in the account of the academy of projectors, and several passages of my discourse to my master _Houyhnhnm_, you have either omitted some material circumstances, or minced or changed them in such a manner, that I do hardly know my own work.
마찬가지로 발명가들의 아카데미에 관한 기술과 나의 주인 후이늠에게 한 담화의 여러 구절에서, 당신은 중요한 상황들을 생략하거나, 그것들을 너무나 축소하거나 변경하여, 내가 내 자신의 작품을 거의 알아볼 수 없을 정도입니다.
When I formerly hinted to you something of this in a letter, you were pleased to answer that you were afraid of giving offence; that people in power were very watchful over the press, and apt not only to interpret, but to punish every thing which looked like an _innuendo_ (as I think you call it).
내가 예전에 편지에서 이에 대해 당신에게 살짝 암시했을 때, 당신은 불쾌감을 줄까 봐 두렵다고 답하셨습니다. 권력을 가진 사람들이 출판물을 매우 예의 주시하고 있으며, 풍자적 암시(당신들이 그렇게 부르는 것 같던데)처럼 보이는 모든 것을 해석할 뿐만 아니라 처벌하기까지 한다고요.
But, pray how could that which I spoke so many years ago, and at about five thousand leagues distance, in another reign, be applied to any of the _Yahoos_, who now are said to govern the herd; especially at a time when I little thought, or feared, the unhappiness of living under them?
하지만 부디 말씀해 주십시오. 수년 전, 약 오천 리그나 떨어진 곳에서, 다른 치세에 내가 한 말이 어떻게 지금 무리를 지배한다고 하는 야후들 중 누구에게 적용될 수 있겠습니까? 더구나 내가 그들 아래서 사는 불행을 거의 생각하거나 두려워하지 않았던 그 시절에 말이죠.
Have not I the most reason to complain, when I see these very _Yahoos_ carried by _Houyhnhnms_ in a vehicle, as if they were brutes, and those the rational creatures?
바로 이 야후들이 후이늠들에 의해 탈것에 태워져, 마치 야후들이 짐승이고 후이늠들이 이성적인 피조물인 양 되어 버린 것을 볼 때, 내가 불평할 이유가 가장 많지 않겠습니까?
And indeed to avoid so monstrous and detestable a sight was one principal motive of my retirement hither.
그리고 실로 그토록 괴물스럽고 혐오스러운 광경을 피하는 것이 내가 이곳으로 은퇴한 주된 동기 중 하나였습니다.
Thus much I thought proper to tell you in relation to yourself, and to the trust I reposed in you.
이 정도가 당신 자신과 관련하여, 그리고 내가 당신에게 맡긴 신뢰에 관하여 당신에게 말하는 것이 적절하다고 생각한 바입니다.
