War and Peace — Page 2
The aunt spoke to each of them in the same words, about their health and her own, and the health of Her Majesty, "who, thank God, was better today."
숙모는 그들 각자에게 똑같은 말로, 그들의 건강과 자신의 건강, 그리고 폐하의 건강에 대해 이야기했는데, "폐하께서는, 감사하게도, 오늘은 좀 나아지셨다"고 했다.
And each visitor, though politeness prevented his showing impatience, left the old woman with a sense of relief at having performed a vexatious duty and did not return to her the whole evening.
그리고 각각의 방문객은, 예의 때문에 조급함을 드러내지는 못했지만, 성가신 의무를 마쳤다는 안도감을 느끼며 그 노부인 곁을 떠났고, 저녁 내내 그녀에게 돌아오지 않았다.
The young Princess Bolkónskaya had brought some work in a gold-embroidered velvet bag.
젊은 볼콘스카야 공작 부인은 금자수가 놓인 벨벳 가방에 뜨개질거리를 가져왔다.
Her pretty little upper lip, on which a delicate dark down was just perceptible, was too short for her teeth, but it lifted all the more sweetly, and was especially charming when she occasionally drew it down to meet the lower lip.
가느다란 검은 솜털이 희미하게 보이는 그녀의 예쁜 작은 윗입술은 치아에 비해 너무 짧았지만, 그만큼 더 사랑스럽게 들려 올라갔고, 간혹 아랫입술 쪽으로 내려올 때면 특히 매력적이었다.
As is always the case with a thoroughly attractive woman, her defect—the shortness of her upper lip and her half-open mouth—seemed to be her own special and peculiar form of beauty.
완전히 매력적인 여성의 경우에 늘 그러하듯, 그녀의 결점—짧은 윗입술과 반쯤 열린 입—은 오히려 그녀만의 특별하고 독특한 아름다움처럼 보였다.
Everyone brightened at the sight of this pretty young woman, so soon to become a mother, so full of life and health, and carrying her burden so lightly.
곧 어머니가 될 이 예쁜 젊은 여인, 생기와 건강으로 넘치며 자신의 짐을 너무나 가볍게 지고 있는 그녀를 보자 모두의 얼굴이 밝아졌다.
Old men and dull dispirited young ones who looked at her, after being in her company and talking to her a little while, felt as if they too were becoming, like her, full of life and health.
그녀를 바라보던 노인들과 따분하고 기운 없는 젊은이들은, 잠시 그녀와 함께 있으며 이야기를 나눈 후, 자신들도 그녀처럼 생기와 건강으로 가득 차가는 것 같은 느낌을 받았다.
All who talked to her, and at each word saw her bright smile and the constant gleam of her white teeth, thought that they were in a specially amiable mood that day.
그녀와 이야기를 나누며 한 마디 한 마디마다 그녀의 밝은 미소와 하얀 치아의 끊임없는 빛남을 본 모든 이들은, 그날 자신들이 유달리 상냥한 기분에 있다고 생각했다.
