Jane Eyre: An Autobiography — Page 6
Miles, the master, affirmed that he would do very well if he had fewer cakes and sweetmeats sent him from home; but the mother's heart turned from an opinion so harsh, and inclined rather to the more refined idea that John's sallowness was owing to over-application and, perhaps, to pining after home.
교장인 마일스 선생님은 집에서 보내오는 케이크와 사탕 같은 것들을 덜 먹으면 훨씬 나아질 것이라고 단언했지만, 어머니의 마음은 그토록 냉정한 의견을 받아들이지 못하고, 오히려 존의 누런 안색은 과도한 공부 때문이며, 어쩌면 집을 그리워하기 때문이라는 좀 더 그럴싸한 생각 쪽으로 기울었다.
John had not much affection for his mother and sisters, and an antipathy to me.
존은 어머니와 누이들에 대한 애정도 별로 없었고, 나에게는 적대감을 품고 있었다.
He bullied and punished me; not two or three times in the week, nor once or twice in the day, but continually: every nerve I had feared him, and every morsel of flesh in my bones shrank when he came near.
그는 나를 괴롭히고 벌을 주었는데, 일주일에 두세 번도 아니고, 하루에 한두 번도 아닌, 끊임없이 그랬다. 나의 온 신경은 그를 두려워했고, 그가 가까이 오면 뼛속 살점 하나하나가 움츠러들었다.
There were moments when I was bewildered by the terror he inspired, because I had no appeal whatever against either his menaces or his inflictions; the servants did not like to offend their young master by taking my part against him, and Mrs. Reed was blind and deaf on the subject: she never saw him strike or heard him abuse me, though he did both now and then in her very presence, more frequently, however, behind her back.
그가 불러일으키는 공포에 내가 어찌할 바를 몰랐던 순간들이 있었는데, 그의 위협이든 그의 가혹한 행동이든 어느 것에도 내가 호소할 방법이 전혀 없었기 때문이었다. 하인들은 나를 편들어 젊은 주인의 심기를 건드리고 싶어 하지 않았고, 리드 부인은 이 문제에 관해서는 눈도 귀도 막힌 것이나 다름없었다. 그녀는 존이 나를 때리는 것도, 나를 학대하는 소리도 결코 보거나 듣지 못했는데, 그가 바로 그녀 앞에서도 두 가지 모두를 이따금 행했음에도 불구하고, 더 자주는 그녀의 뒤에서였지만 그랬다.
Habitually obedient to John, I came up to his chair: he spent some three minutes in thrusting out his tongue at me as far as he could without damaging the roots: I knew he would soon strike, and while dreading the blow, I mused on the disgusting and ugly appearance of him who would presently deal it.
존에게 습관적으로 복종해왔던 나는 그의 의자 곁으로 다가갔다. 그는 혀뿌리가 다치지 않는 한도 내에서 최대한 혀를 내밀며 나를 약 3분 동안 놀려댔다. 나는 그가 곧 때릴 것을 알고 있었고, 그 일격을 두려워하면서도, 곧 그것을 날릴 그의 역겹고 추한 모습에 대해 골똘히 생각했다.
