The Adventures of Roderick Random — Page 3

In vain the astonished painter declared that he had no intention to give offence, or to characterise particular persons: they affirmed the resemblance was too palpable to be overlooked; they taxed him with insolence, malice, and ingratitude; and their clamours being overheard by the public, the captain was a bear, the doctor an ass, and the senator an owl, to his dying day.
놀란 화가는 헛되이 자신이 누구에게도 모욕을 줄 의도가 없었으며 특정 인물을 묘사한 것도 아니라고 선언했다. 그러나 그들은 그 유사성이 너무나 명백하여 간과할 수 없다고 주장했고, 그에게 오만함과 악의, 그리고 배은망덕함을 비난했다. 그들의 소란이 대중에게 알려지면서, 그 선장은 곰으로, 의사는 당나귀로, 그리고 그 의원은 올빼미로 죽는 날까지 불리게 되었다.
Christian reader, I beseech thee, in the bowels of the Lord, remember this example "while thou art employed in the perusal of the following sheets; and seek not to appropriate to thyself that which equally belongs to five hundred different people.
기독교인 독자여, 나는 주님의 이름으로 그대에게 간청하노니, 다음에 이어지는 글을 읽는 동안 이 예를 기억하라. 그리고 오백 명의 서로 다른 사람들에게 똑같이 해당되는 것을 그대 자신에게만 적용하려 하지 말라.
If thou shouldst meet with a character that reflects thee in some ungracious particular, keep thy own counsel; consider that one feature makes not a face, and that though thou art, perhaps, distinguished by a bottle nose, twenty of thy neighbours may be in the same predicament.
만약 그대가 어떤 불미스러운 특징에서 그대 자신을 반영하는 인물을 만나게 된다면, 그대 자신만의 판단을 간직하라. 하나의 특징이 얼굴 전체를 이루지는 않는다는 것을 생각하라. 비록 그대가 혹처럼 큰 코로 유명할지라도, 그대의 이웃 스무 명도 같은 처지에 있을 수 있다는 것을.
