The King in Yellow — Page 4

English → Korean HAWBERK, ARMOURER. Level 7/10

If Hawberk knew how I loathe that word "lunatic," he would never use it in my presence.

호버크가 내가 "미치광이"라는 단어를 얼마나 혐오하는지 알았다면, 그는 내 앞에서 절대 그 말을 쓰지 않았을 것이다.

It rouses certain feelings within me which I do not care to explain.

그 말은 내 안에서 굳이 설명하고 싶지 않은 어떤 감정들을 불러일으킨다.

However, I answered him quietly: "I think I shall drop in and see Mr. Wilde for a moment or two."

그러나 나는 조용히 대답했다. "와일드 씨를 잠깐 들러 만나볼까 합니다."

"Poor fellow," said Constance, with a shake of the head, "it must be hard to live alone year after year poor, crippled and almost demented.

"불쌍한 분이에요," 콘스탄스가 고개를 저으며 말했다. "가난하고, 몸도 불편하고, 거의 제정신이 아닌 채로 해마다 혼자 살아가는 것은 분명 힘든 일일 거예요.

It is very good of you, Mr. Castaigne, to visit him as often as you do."

카스테인 씨, 그분을 그렇게 자주 방문해 주시다니 정말 훌륭하십니다."

"I think he is vicious," observed Hawberk, beginning again with his hammer.

"저는 그 사람이 사악하다고 생각합니다," 호버크가 다시 망치질을 시작하며 말했다.

I listened to the golden tinkle on the greave plates; when he had finished I replied:

나는 정강이 갑옷 판 위에서 울리는 황금빛 딸랑거리는 소리를 들었다. 그가 말을 마쳤을 때 나는 대답했다.

"No, he is not vicious, nor is he in the least demented.

"아니요, 그는 사악하지 않으며, 조금도 제정신이 아닌 것도 아닙니다.

His mind is a wonder chamber, from which he can extract treasures that you and I would give years of our lives to acquire."

그의 정신은 경이로운 방과 같아서, 당신과 내가 얻기 위해 수년의 삶을 바칠 만한 보물들을 그곳에서 끌어낼 수 있습니다."

Hawberk laughed.

호버크가 웃었다.

I continued a little impatiently: "He knows history as no one else could know it.

나는 약간 조급하게 계속 말했다. "그는 누구도 알 수 없을 만큼 역사를 잘 알고 있습니다.

Nothing, however trivial, escapes his search, and his memory is so absolute, so precise in details, that were it known in New York that such a man existed, the people could not honour him enough."

아무리 사소한 것이라도 그의 탐구를 피할 수 없으며, 그의 기억은 너무나 완벽하고 세부 사항에서 너무나 정확하여, 그런 사람이 존재한다는 것이 뉴욕에 알려진다면 사람들은 그를 아무리 높이 존경해도 부족할 것입니다."

"Nonsense," muttered Hawberk, searching on the floor for a fallen rivet.

"말도 안 되는 소리," 호버크가 바닥에 떨어진 리벳을 찾으며 중얼거렸다.
