The Adventures of Roderick Random — Page 5
She was accordingly admitted into his presence, where, discovering herself, she fell at his feet, and in the most affecting manner implored his forgiveness; at the same time representing the danger that threatened not only her life, but that of his own grandchild, which was about to see the light.
그리하여 그녀는 그의 앞에 들어갈 수 있었고, 그곳에서 자신의 정체를 밝히며 그의 발 앞에 엎드려 가장 애절한 방식으로 용서를 간청하였다. 동시에 그녀는 자신의 생명뿐만 아니라 곧 세상의 빛을 보게 될 그의 친손자의 생명까지도 위협하는 위험을 호소하였다.
He told her he was sorry that the indiscretion of her and his son had compelled him to make a vow, which put it out of his power to give them any assistance; that he had already imparted his thoughts on that subject to her husband, and was surprised that they should disturb his peace with any farther importunity.
그는 그녀와 자신의 아들의 경솔함이 자신으로 하여금 서약을 하도록 만들었으며, 그 서약으로 인해 그들에게 어떠한 도움도 줄 수 없게 되었다고 유감을 표하였다. 또한 그 문제에 관한 자신의 생각을 이미 그녀의 남편에게 전달하였으므로, 그들이 더 이상의 간청으로 자신의 평화를 어지럽히는 것에 놀라움을 금할 수 없다고 하였다.
This said, he retired.
이 말을 마치고 그는 물러났다.
The violence of my mother's affliction had such an effect on her constitution that she was immediately seized with the pains of childbed; and had not an old maidservant, to whom she was very dear, afforded her pity and assistance, at the hazard of incurring my grandfather's displeasure, she and the innocent fruit of her womb must have fallen miserable victims to his rigour and inhumanity.
어머니의 극심한 고통은 그녀의 몸에 즉각적인 영향을 미쳐 곧바로 산통이 시작되었다. 만약 그녀를 매우 아끼던 한 늙은 하녀가 외할아버지의 노여움을 살 위험을 무릅쓰고 동정과 도움을 베풀지 않았더라면, 그녀와 그녀의 뱃속에 있던 죄 없는 생명은 그의 냉혹함과 비인간성의 비참한 희생물이 되었을 것이다.
By the friendship of this poor woman she was carried up to a garret, and immediately delivered of a man child, the story of whose unfortunate birth he himself now relates.
이 가난한 여인의 우정 덕분에 그녀는 다락방으로 옮겨졌고, 그곳에서 곧바로 사내아이를 낳았으니, 그 불행한 탄생의 이야기를 지금 그 자신이 직접 전하고 있는 것이다.
