Middlemarch — Page 4

English → Korean CHAPTER I. Level 9/10

He had travelled in his younger years, and was held in this part of the county to have contracted a too rambling habit of mind.

그는 젊은 시절에 여행을 많이 했으며, 이 지방에서는 그가 너무 산만한 사고 습관을 갖게 되었다고 여겨졌다.

Mr. Brooke's conclusions were as difficult to predict as the weather: it was only safe to say that he would act with benevolent intentions, and that he would spend as little money as possible in carrying them out.

브룩 씨의 결론은 날씨만큼이나 예측하기 어려웠다. 그가 선의를 가지고 행동할 것이며, 그것을 실행하는 데 가능한 한 적은 돈을 쓸 것이라고 말하는 것만이 안전했다.

For the most glutinously indefinite minds enclose some hard grains of habit; and a man has been seen lax about all his own interests except the retention of his snuff-box, concerning which he was watchful, suspicious, and greedy of clutch.

왜냐하면 가장 끈적이듯 불분명한 정신도 굳은 습관의 알갱이를 몇 개쯤은 품고 있기 때문이다. 어떤 사람이 자신의 코담배갑을 잃지 않으려는 것만 빼고는 자신의 모든 이익에 대해 느슨한 모습을 보이는 경우도 있었는데, 그 코담배갑에 관해서만큼은 그는 경계하고, 의심하며, 탐욕스럽게 움켜쥐려 했다.

In Mr. Brooke the hereditary strain of Puritan energy was clearly in abeyance; but in his niece Dorothea it glowed alike through faults and virtues, turning sometimes into impatience of her uncle's talk or his way of "letting things be" on his estate, and making her long all the more for the time when she would be of age and have some command of money for generous schemes.

브룩 씨에게서 청교도적 에너지의 유전적 기질은 분명히 잠재되어 있었다. 그러나 그의 조카딸 도로시아에게서는 그것이 결점과 미덕을 통해 똑같이 빛났으며, 때로는 삼촌의 이야기나 자신의 영지에서 "그냥 내버려 두는" 방식에 대한 조바심으로 나타나기도 했고, 그녀가 성년이 되어 관대한 계획을 위해 돈을 어느 정도 마음대로 쓸 수 있는 때를 더욱 갈망하게 만들었다.

She was regarded as an heiress; for not only had the sisters seven hundred a-year each from their parents, but if Dorothea married and had a son, that son would inherit Mr. Brooke's estate, presumably worth about three thousand a-year—a rental which seemed wealth to provincial families, still discussing Mr. Peel's late conduct on the Catholic question, innocent of future gold-fields, and of that gorgeous plutocracy which has so nobly exalted the necessities of genteel life.

그녀는 상속녀로 여겨졌다. 자매들은 부모로부터 각각 연 700파운드를 받을 뿐만 아니라, 도로시아가 결혼하여 아들을 낳는다면 그 아들이 브룩 씨의 영지를 상속받게 될 것이었는데, 그 영지는 연 3천 파운드의 가치가 있는 것으로 추정되었다. 이는 아직도 가톨릭 문제에 관한 필 씨의 최근 행동을 논하고, 미래의 금광에 대해서도, 그리고 점잖은 생활의 필수품을 그토록 고귀하게 드높인 저 화려한 금권정치에 대해서도 아무것도 모르는 지방 가문들에게는 부로 여겨지는 수입이었다.
