Gulliver's Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World — Page 4
Six of the crew, of whom I was one, having let down the boat into the sea, made a shift to get clear of the ship and the rock.
나를 포함한 선원 여섯 명이 바다에 보트를 내려, 배와 암초에서 벗어나기 위해 힘껏 노력했다.
We rowed, by my computation, about three leagues, till we were able to work no longer, being already spent with labour while we were in the ship.
우리는 내 계산으로 약 세 리그를 노를 저었고, 배 안에서 이미 노동으로 지쳐 있었기에 더 이상 움직일 수 없을 때까지 계속했다.
We therefore trusted ourselves to the mercy of the waves, and in about half an hour the boat was overset by a sudden flurry from the north.
그리하여 우리는 파도의 자비에 몸을 맡겼고, 약 반 시간 후 북쪽에서 갑작스럽게 몰아친 돌풍에 보트가 뒤집혔다.
What became of my companions in the boat, as well as of those who escaped on the rock, or were left in the vessel, I cannot tell; but conclude they were all lost.
보트 안의 동료들이 어찌 되었는지, 또한 암초 위로 피신한 자들이나 배에 남은 자들이 어찌 되었는지 나는 알 수 없지만, 그들 모두 목숨을 잃었을 것이라 결론짓는다.
For my own part, I swam as fortune directed me, and was pushed forward by wind and tide.
나 자신으로서는, 운이 이끄는 대로 헤엄쳤고, 바람과 조류에 의해 앞으로 밀려나갔다.
I often let my legs drop, and could feel no bottom; but when I was almost gone, and able to struggle no longer, I found myself within my depth; and by this time the storm was much abated.
나는 자주 다리를 아래로 내려보았지만 바닥을 느낄 수 없었다. 그러나 거의 의식을 잃고 더 이상 버둥거릴 수 없을 때, 내가 발이 닿는 깊이에 와 있음을 깨달았다. 그리고 이때쯤 폭풍은 많이 가라앉아 있었다.
The declivity was so small, that I walked near a mile before I got to the shore, which I conjectured was about eight o'clock in the evening.
경사가 너무 완만하여, 해안에 닿기까지 거의 1마일을 걸었는데, 그때가 저녁 여덟 시쯤이라고 짐작했다.
I then advanced forward near half a mile, but could not discover any sign of houses or inhabitants; at least I was in so weak a condition, that I did not observe them.
그런 다음 나는 약 반 마일을 더 나아갔지만, 집이나 주민의 어떤 흔적도 발견할 수 없었다. 적어도 나는 너무나 쇠약한 상태여서 그것들을 알아채지 못했을 것이다.
