Middlemarch — Page 3
Here and there a cygnet is reared uneasily among the ducklings in the brown pond, and never finds the living stream in fellowship with its own oary-footed kind.
여기저기서 어린 백조 한 마리가 갈색 연못의 오리 새끼들 사이에서 불안하게 자라나며, 노처럼 생긴 발을 가진 자신의 동족과 어울려 살아 숨 쉬는 물줄기를 끝내 찾지 못한다.
Here and there is born a Saint Theresa, foundress of nothing, whose loving heart-beats and sobs after an unattained goodness tremble off and are dispersed among hindrances, instead of centring in some long-recognizable deed.
여기저기서 성녀 테레사 같은 인물이 태어나지만, 아무것도 창설하지 못한 창시자로서, 이루지 못한 선함을 향한 그녀의 사랑스러운 심장 박동과 흐느낌은 오래도록 기억될 만한 어떤 행위로 모아지지 못한 채 장애물들 사이로 흩어지고 사라진다.
