The strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde — Page 5
Street after street and all the folks asleep—street after street, all lighted up as if for a procession and all as empty as a church—till at last I got into that state of mind when a man listens and listens and begins to long for the sight of a policeman.
거리마다 사람들은 모두 잠들어 있었고—거리마다 행렬이라도 있는 양 불이 환히 밝혀져 있었지만 교회처럼 텅 비어 있었습니다—마침내 저는 자꾸만 귀를 기울이며 경찰관의 모습이 보이기를 간절히 바라는 그런 심정이 되고 말았습니다.
All at once, I saw two figures: one a little man who was stumping along eastward at a good walk, and the other a girl of maybe eight or ten who was running as hard as she was able down a cross street.
그때 갑자기 두 사람의 모습이 눈에 들어왔습니다. 한 명은 빠른 걸음으로 동쪽을 향해 터덜터덜 걸어가는 작은 남자였고, 다른 한 명은 여덟 살이나 열 살쯤 되어 보이는 소녀로, 교차로를 따라 힘껏 달려오고 있었습니다.
Well, sir, the two ran into one another naturally enough at the corner; and then came the horrible part of the thing; for the man trampled calmly over the child's body and left her screaming on the ground.
그런데, 이런, 두 사람은 모퉁이에서 자연스럽게 정면으로 부딪혔습니다. 그리고 그다음에 끔찍한 일이 벌어졌습니다. 그 남자가 아이의 몸을 태연하게 짓밟고는 땅바닥에서 비명을 지르는 아이를 그냥 내버려 두고 간 것입니다.
It sounds nothing to hear, but it was hellish to see.
말로 들으면 별것 아닌 것 같지만, 직접 눈으로 보기엔 지옥 같은 광경이었습니다.
It wasn't like a man; it was like some damned Juggernaut.
그것은 사람 같지 않았습니다. 마치 저주받은 거대한 괴물 같았습니다.
I gave a few halloa, took to my heels, collared my gentleman, and brought him back to where there was already quite a group about the screaming child.
저는 고함을 몇 번 지르고는 뒤를 쫓아가 그 자를 붙잡아서, 비명을 지르는 아이 주위에 이미 꽤 많은 사람들이 모여 있는 곳으로 끌고 돌아왔습니다.
He was perfectly cool and made no resistance, but gave me one look, so ugly that it brought out the sweat on me like running.
그는 아주 침착했고 저항도 하지 않았지만, 저를 한 번 쳐다보았는데, 그 눈빛이 어찌나 끔찍했던지 달리기라도 한 것처럼 제 몸에서 식은땀이 흘러내렸습니다.
The people who had turned out were the girl's own family; and pretty soon, the doctor, for whom she had been sent, put in his appearance.
몰려나온 사람들은 그 소녀의 가족이었습니다. 그리고 얼마 지나지 않아, 소녀를 위해 불러온 의사가 모습을 나타냈습니다.
