Wuthering Heights — Page 1

English → Korean CHAPTER II Level 8/10

Yesterday afternoon set in misty and cold.

어제 오후는 안개가 끼고 추웠다.

I had half a mind to spend it by my study fire, instead of wading through heath and mud to Wuthering Heights.

황야와 진흙을 헤치며 워더링 하이츠까지 걸어가는 대신, 서재 난로 옆에서 오후를 보낼까 하는 마음이 반쯤 들었다.

On coming up from dinner, however, (N.B.—I dine between twelve and one o'clock; the housekeeper, a matronly lady, taken as a fixture along with the house, could not, or would not, comprehend my request that I might be served at five)—on mounting the stairs with this lazy intention, and stepping into the room, I saw a servant-girl on her knees surrounded by brushes and coal-scuttles, and raising an infernal dust as she extinguished the flames with heaps of cinders.

그러나 저녁 식사를 마치고 올라오다가—(참고로, 나는 열두 시에서 한 시 사이에 식사를 한다. 집과 함께 딸려온 가정부인 중년 여인은 다섯 시에 식사를 내달라는 나의 요청을 이해하지 못하거나, 이해하려 들지 않았다)—이 게으른 생각을 품고 계단을 올라 방으로 들어서자, 한 하녀가 솔과 석탄 통에 둘러싸인 채 무릎을 꿇고 앉아 재더미로 불꽃을 끄면서 지독한 먼지를 일으키고 있는 것을 보았다.

This spectacle drove me back immediately; I took my hat, and, after a four-miles' walk, arrived at Heathcliff's garden-gate just in time to escape the first feathery flakes of a snow shower.

이 광경에 나는 곧장 발길을 돌렸다. 모자를 집어 들고 4마일을 걸어, 첫 번째 솜털 같은 눈송이가 내리기 직전에 히스클리프의 정원 문에 도착했다.

On that bleak hill top the earth was hard with a black frost, and the air made me shiver through every limb.

그 황량한 언덕 꼭대기에서 땅은 된서리로 딱딱하게 굳어 있었고, 차가운 공기에 온몸이 떨렸다.

Being unable to remove the chain, I jumped over, and, running up the flagged causeway bordered with straggling gooseberry-bushes, knocked vainly for admittance, till my knuckles tingled and the dogs howled.

쇠사슬을 풀 수 없어 뛰어넘고, 듬성듬성 자란 구스베리 덤불로 둘러싸인 돌 포장길을 달려 올라가 문을 두드렸으나, 손가락 마디가 얼얼해지고 개들이 짖어댈 때까지도 아무 소용이 없었다.

"Wretched inmates!" I ejaculated, mentally, "you deserve perpetual isolation from your species for your churlish inhospitality.

"불쌍한 거주자들 같으니!" 나는 속으로 내뱉었다. "이 무뚝뚝한 불친절함으로 인해 너희는 동족으로부터 영원히 고립될 자격이 있다.

At least, I would not keep my doors barred in the day-time.

적어도 나라면 낮 동안에 문을 잠가두지는 않을 것이다.

I don't care—I will get in!"

상관없어—기어코 들어가고 말겠어!"

So resolved, I grasped the latch and shook it vehemently.

그렇게 결심하고, 나는 문고리를 잡아 세차게 흔들었다.
