From the text
“In describing the character and the action of the personages whose histories form the subjects of this series, the writer makes no attempt to darken the colors in which he depicts their deeds of violence and wrong, or to increase, by indignant denunciations…”

About five or six hundred years before Christ, almost the whole of the interior of Asia was united in one vast empire.
기원전 약 500년에서 600년 전에 아시아 내륙의 거의 모든 지역이 하나의 거대한 제국으로 통합되었습니다.
The founder of this empire was Cyrus the Great.
이 제국의 창건자는 키루스 대왕이었다.
He was originally a Persian; and the whole empire is often called the Persian monarchy, taking its name from its founder's native land.
그는 원래 페르시아인이었고, 제국 전체가 종종 페르시아 왕조라고 불리는데, 이는 창시자의 고향 땅에서 이름을 따온 것이다.
Cyrus was not contented with having annexed to his dominion all the civilized states of Asia.
키루스는 아시아의 모든 문명 국가들을 자기 영토에 편입시킨 것에 만족하지 않았다.
In the latter part of his life, he conceived the idea that there might possibly be some additional glory and power to be acquired in subduing certain half-savage regions in the north, beyond the Araxes.
그는 말년에 아락세스 강 너머 북쪽에 있는 반야만적인 지역들을 정복함으로써 더 큰 영광과 권력을 얻을 수 있을지도 모른다는 생각을 품었습니다.
He accordingly raised an army, and set off on an expedition for this purpose, against a country which was governed by a barbarian queen named Tomyris.
그리하여 그는 군대를 일으켜 토미리스라는 야만 여왕이 다스리는 나라를 공격하기 위해 원정을 떠났습니다.
He met with a variety of adventures on this expedition, all of which are fully detailed in our history of Cyrus.
그는 이 원정에서 다양한 모험을 겪었는데, 이 모든 것은 키루스의 역사에 자세히 기록되어 있습니다.
There is, however, only one occurrence that it is necessary to allude to particularly here.
그러나 여기서 특별히 언급해야 할 경우는 단 한 가지뿐입니다.
