Light O' the Morning: The Story of an Irish Girl — Page 3
So also did the delicately marked black brows and the black lashes to her dark and very lovely blue eyes; but the clear complexion, the cheeks with the tenderest bloom on them, the softly dimpled lips red as coral, and the little teeth white as pearls were true Irish characteristics.
섬세하게 그려진 검은 눈썹과 그녀의 어둡고 매우 사랑스러운 파란 눈의 검은 속눈썹도 마찬가지였지만, 맑은 안색, 가장 부드러운 홍조를 띤 볼, 산호처럼 붉은 보조개가 살짝 패인 입술, 그리고 진주처럼 하얀 작은 이들은 진정한 아일랜드인의 특징이었다.
Nora waited for a moment after Hannah had left her, then, shading her eyes from the westerly sun by one hand, she turned slowly and went into the house.
노라는 한나가 떠난 후 잠시 기다리다가, 한 손으로 서쪽 햇빛을 가리며 천천히 몸을 돌려 집 안으로 들어갔다.
"Where is mother, Pegeen?" she said to a rough-looking, somewhat slatternly servant who was crossing the hall.
"어머니는 어디 계시니, 페긴?" 그녀는 홀을 가로질러 가고 있는, 거칠어 보이고 다소 단정치 못한 하녀에게 말했다.
"In the north parlor, Miss Nora."
"북쪽 응접실에 계세요, 노라 아가씨."
"Come along, then, Creena; come along, Cushla," said the girl, addressing two handsome black Pomeranians who rushed to meet her.
"이리 와, 크리나; 이리 와, 쿠슬라," 소녀는 자신을 향해 달려오는 두 마리의 멋진 검은 포메라니안에게 말했다.
The dogs leaped up at her with expressions of rapture, and girl and dogs careered with a wild dance across the great, broad hall in the direction of the north parlor.
개들은 환희에 찬 표정으로 그녀에게 뛰어올랐고, 소녀와 개들은 북쪽 응접실 방향으로 넓고 커다란 홀을 가로질러 신나게 뛰어다녔다.
Nora opened the door with a somewhat noisy bang, the dogs precipitated themselves into the room, and she followed.
노라는 다소 요란한 소리를 내며 문을 열었고, 개들이 방 안으로 뛰어 들어갔으며, 그녀도 뒤를 따랐다.
"Ah, then, mother dear! and have I disturbed you?" she said.
"아, 어머니! 제가 방해가 되었나요?" 그녀가 말했다.
A pale-faced lady, who was lying full-length on a very old and hard sofa, rose with a querulous expression on her face when Nora entered.
매우 낡고 딱딱한 소파에 길게 누워 있던 창백한 얼굴의 부인은 노라가 들어오자 불만스러운 표정을 지으며 일어났다.
"I wish someone would teach you thoughtfulness," she said; "you are the most tiresome girl in the world.
"누군가가 네게 사려 깊음을 가르쳐 주었으면 좋겠구나," 그녀가 말했다. "너는 세상에서 가장 귀찮은 아이야.
