The Yellow Wallpaper — Page 2
So I take phosphates or phosphites—whichever it is, and tonics, and journeys, and air, and exercise, and am absolutely forbidden to "work" until I am well again.
그래서 나는 인산염이든 아인산염이든—어느 쪽이든 간에—그리고 강장제와 여행과 공기와 운동을 처방받았으며, 완전히 나을 때까지 "일"하는 것은 절대적으로 금지되어 있다.
Personally, I disagree with their ideas.
개인적으로, 나는 그들의 생각에 동의하지 않는다.
Personally, I believe that congenial work, with excitement and change, would do me good.
개인적으로, 나는 흥미와 변화가 있는 적성에 맞는 일이 내게 도움이 될 것이라고 믿는다.
But what is one to do?
하지만 어쩌겠는가?
I did write for a while in spite of them; but it does exhaust me a good deal—having to be so sly about it, or else meet with heavy opposition.
나는 그들의 반대에도 불구하고 한동안 글을 쓰기는 했다. 하지만 그것은 나를 꽤 지치게 한다—그것에 대해 몰래 숨겨야 하거나, 아니면 심한 반대에 부딪혀야 하기 때문에.
I sometimes fancy that in my condition if I had less opposition and more society and stimulus—but John says the very worst thing I can do is to think about my condition, and I confess it always makes me feel bad.
나는 때때로 내 상태에서 반대가 덜하고 사람들과의 교류와 자극이 더 많다면—하지만 존은 내가 할 수 있는 최악의 일은 내 상태에 대해 생각하는 것이라고 말하며, 나는 그것이 항상 기분을 나쁘게 만든다는 것을 인정한다.
So I will let it alone and talk about the house.
그래서 나는 그것은 내버려 두고 집에 대해 이야기하겠다.
The most beautiful place! It is quite alone, standing well back from the road, quite three miles from the village.
정말 아름다운 곳이다! 그것은 완전히 외따로 있으며, 도로에서 한참 뒤로 물러나 있고, 마을에서 거의 3마일이나 떨어져 있다.
It makes me think of English places that you read about, for there are hedges and walls and gates that lock, and lots of separate little houses for the gardeners and people.
그곳은 책에서 읽던 영국의 장소들을 떠올리게 한다. 자물쇠가 잠기는 울타리와 담장과 대문이 있고, 정원사들과 사람들을 위한 여러 채의 작은 집들이 많이 있기 때문이다.
There is a delicious garden! I never saw such a garden—large and shady, full of box-bordered paths, and lined with long grape-covered arbors with seats under them.
정말 멋진 정원이 있다! 나는 그런 정원을 본 적이 없다—넓고 그늘이 지며, 회양목으로 둘러싸인 오솔길들로 가득하고, 아래에 좌석이 있는 포도로 덮인 긴 정자들이 줄지어 있다.
There were greenhouses, too, but they are all broken now.
온실도 있었지만, 지금은 모두 망가져 있다.
There was some legal trouble, I believe, something about the heirs and co-heirs; anyhow, the place has been empty for years.
법적인 문제가 있었던 것으로 나는 생각하는데, 상속인들과 공동 상속인들에 관한 무언가였다. 어쨌든, 그 집은 수년간 비어 있었다.
