Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave — Page 10
what longings after freedom took possession of his breast, and how his misery augmented, in proportion as he grew reflective and intelligent,—thus demonstrating that a happy slave is an extinct man!
자유를 향한 갈망이 어떻게 그의 가슴을 사로잡았는지, 그리고 그가 사색적이고 지적으로 성장함에 따라 그의 고통이 얼마나 커졌는지—이는 행복한 노예란 존재하지 않는 인간임을 입증하는 것이다!
how he thought, reasoned, felt, under the lash of the driver, with the chains upon his limbs!
그가 감시자의 채찍 아래, 사지에 족쇄를 찬 채로 어떻게 생각하고, 추론하고, 느꼈는지!
what perils he encountered in his endeavors to escape from his horrible doom!
그 끔찍한 운명에서 벗어나려는 노력 속에서 그가 어떤 위험들을 마주쳤는지!
and how signal have been his deliverance and preservation in the midst of a nation of pitiless enemies!
그리고 무자비한 적들로 가득 찬 나라 한가운데서 그의 구원과 보존이 얼마나 놀라운 것이었는지!
This Narrative contains many affecting incidents, many passages of great eloquence and power; but I think the most thrilling one of them all is the description _Douglass_ gives of his feelings, as he stood soliloquizing respecting his fate, and the chances of his one day being a freeman, on the banks of the Chesapeake Bay—viewing the receding vessels as they flew with their white wings before the breeze, and apostrophizing them as animated by the living spirit of freedom.
이 서사에는 감동적인 사건들과 웅변적이고 힘 있는 구절들이 많이 담겨 있다. 그러나 나는 그 중 가장 전율을 일으키는 것은 더글러스가 체서피크 만의 강변에서 자신의 운명과 언젠가 자유인이 될 가능성에 대해 혼자 중얼거리며 서 있을 때의 심정을 묘사한 부분이라고 생각한다—그는 미풍 앞에 흰 날개를 펼치며 날아가는 배들이 멀어지는 것을 바라보며, 그 배들이 자유의 살아있는 정신으로 생동하고 있다고 부르짖었다.
Who can read that passage, and be insensible to its pathos and sublimity?
누가 그 구절을 읽고 그 애절함과 숭고함에 무감각할 수 있겠는가?
Compressed into it is a whole Alexandrian library of thought, feeling, and sentiment—all that can, all that need be urged, in the form of expostulation, entreaty, rebuke, against that crime of crimes,—making man the property of his fellow-man!
그 안에는 사상과 감정과 정서의 알렉산드리아 도서관 전체가 압축되어 있다—항의와 탄원과 질책의 형태로, 저 모든 죄악 중의 죄악, 즉 인간을 동료 인간의 소유물로 만드는 일에 맞서 주장할 수 있는 모든 것, 주장할 필요가 있는 모든 것이 담겨 있다!
