The Adventures of Roderick Random — Page 6
My father, being informed of what had happened, flew to the embraces of his darling spouse, and while he loaded his offspring with paternal embraces, could not forbear shedding a flood of tears on beholding the dear partner of his heart (for whose ease he would have sacrificed the treasures of the east) stretched upon a flock bed, in a miserable apartment, unable to protect her from the inclemencies of the weather.
아버지는 일어난 일을 전해 듣고 사랑하는 배우자의 품으로 달려가, 자식들에게 아버지다운 포옹을 퍼부으면서도, 마음의 소중한 반려자(그녀의 편안함을 위해서라면 동방의 보물도 아낌없이 바쳤을)가 열악한 방 안의 짚 침대에 누워, 거친 날씨로부터 그녀를 보호조차 받지 못하는 모습을 보고 눈물을 억누를 수 없었다.
It is not to be supposed that the old gentleman was ignorant of what passed, though he affected to know nothing of the matter, and pretended to be very much surprised, when one of his grandchildren, by his eldest son deceased, who lived with him as his heir apparent, acquainted him with the affair; he determined therefore to observe no medium, but immediately (on the third day after her delivery) sent her a peremptory order to be gone, and turned off the servant who had preserved her life.
그 노신사가 일어난 일을 모르고 있었다고는 볼 수 없었으니, 비록 그는 아무것도 모르는 척하며, 먼저 세상을 떠난 장남의 자식 중 한 명으로서 그의 후계자로 함께 살던 손자가 그 일을 알려왔을 때 몹시 놀라는 체했지만, 결국 그는 어떠한 중간 태도도 취하지 않기로 결심하고, 즉시(그녀가 출산한 지 사흘째 되는 날) 떠나라는 단호한 명령을 보내고, 그녀의 목숨을 구해준 하인을 내쫓았다.
This behaviour so exasperated my father that he had recourse to the most dreadful imprecations; and on his bare knees implored that Heaven would renounce him if ever he should forget or forgive the barbarity of his sire.
이 같은 행동은 아버지를 몹시 격분시켜, 그는 가장 끔찍한 저주의 말에 의지하게 되었고, 맨 무릎을 꿇고 하늘에 간청하기를, 만약 자신이 아버지의 잔인한 행동을 잊거나 용서하게 된다면 하늘이 자신을 버리라고 빌었다.
The injuries which this unhappy mother received from her removal in such circumstances, and the want of necessaries where she lodged, together with her grief and anxiety of mind, soon threw her into a languishing disorder, which put an end to her life.
이 불행한 어머니가 그러한 상황에서 거처를 옮기면서 받은 상처와, 머무는 곳에서의 생필품 부족, 그리고 슬픔과 마음의 불안이 겹쳐, 그녀는 곧 쇠약해지는 병에 걸리게 되었고, 그것이 그녀의 삶을 끝으로 이끌었다.
