Won from the Waves — Page 8

English → Korean CHAPTER ONE. Level 6/10

She was already on a wind when again the mist closed over the ocean, and she was hidden from sight.

그녀는 이미 바람을 타고 있었는데, 다시 안개가 바다를 뒤덮으며 시야에서 사라졌다.

"We will keep the _Nancy_ where she is," said Halliburt; "we don't know what may happen.

"낸시호를 지금 있는 자리에 두겠소," 핼리버트가 말했다. "무슨 일이 일어날지 모르니까요.

If yonder ship drives on the sands--and she has but a poor chance of keeping off them, I fear--we cannot let her people perish without trying to save them;

저 배가 모래톱에 좌초된다면—그리고 모래톱을 피할 가능성이 낮다고 생각하는데—우리는 구하려 노력하지도 않고 그 사람들이 죽게 내버려 둘 수는 없소;

and though it may be a hard job to get alongside the wreck, yet some of the poor fellows may be drifted away from her on rafts or spars, and we may be able to pick them up.

난파선 곁에 다가가는 것이 힘든 일일지라도, 가엾은 사람들 중 일부는 뗏목이나 돛대를 타고 배에서 떠내려올 수 있으니, 우리가 그들을 건져 올릴 수도 있소.

Whatever happens, we must do our best."

무슨 일이 있어도, 우리는 최선을 다해야 하오."

"Ay, ay, Adam," answered several of his hardy crew, who stood around him; "where you think fit to go we are ready to go too."

"알겠습니다, 알겠어요, 애덤," 그의 주위에 서 있던 몇몇 강인한 선원들이 대답했다. "당신이 가는 게 좋다고 생각하는 곳이라면 우리도 기꺼이 가겠습니다."

The party had not long to wait before their worst apprehensions were realised.

일행은 그들의 최악의 우려가 현실이 되기까지 오래 기다리지 않아도 되었다.

The dull report of a gun, which their practised ears told them came from Norton Sands, was heard;

노턴 샌즈에서 들려온다는 것을 숙련된 귀로 알아챈 둔탁한 포성이 들렸다;

in another minute the sound of a second gun boomed over the waters;

잠시 후 두 번째 포성이 수면 위로 울려 퍼졌다;

a third followed even before the same interval had elapsed.

세 번째 포성은 같은 간격이 채 지나기도 전에 이어졌다.
