MY DEAR BROTHER,—I can no longer refuse myself the pleasure of profiting by your kind invitation when we last parted of spending some weeks with you at Churchhill, and, therefore, if quite convenient to you and Mrs. Vernon to receive me at present, I shall hope within a few days to be introduced to a sister whom I have so long desired to be acquainted with.
사랑하는 형님, 지난번 헤어질 때 처칠에서 형님과 함께 몇 주를 보내자는 형님의 친절한 초대를 거절할 수 없게 되었습니다. 그러므로 형님과 버논 부인께서 지금 저를 받아주시는 것이 편하시다면, 며칠 안에 제가 오랫동안 알고 지내고 싶었던 누이를 소개받고 싶습니다.
My kind friends here are most affectionately urgent with me to prolong my stay, but their hospitable and cheerful dispositions lead them too much into society for my present situation and state of mind; and I impatiently look forward to the hour when I shall be admitted into your delightful retirement.
여기 계신 친절한 친구분들이 저에게 더 오래 머물러 달라고 간곡히 부탁하시지만, 그분들의 너그럽고 쾌활한 성품 때문에 제가 지금 처한 상황과 마음 상태에는 맞지 않게 너무 사교 활동에 치중하시는 것 같습니다. 그래서 저는 여러분의 즐거운 휴식처로 들어갈 수 있는 날을 간절히 기다리고 있습니다.
I long to be made known to your dear little children, in whose hearts I shall be very eager to secure an interest.
나는 당신의 사랑스러운 어린 자녀들에게 알려지기를 간절히 바라며, 그들의 마음속에 자리 잡기를 간절히 원합니다.
I shall soon have need for all my fortitude, as I am on the point of separation from my own daughter.
나는 곧 내 딸과 헤어지게 될 것이므로, 나의 모든 용기가 필요할 것이다.
The long illness of her dear father prevented my paying her that attention which duty and affection equally dictated, and I have too much reason to fear that the governess to whose care I consigned her was unequal to the charge.
사랑하는 아버지의 오랜 병환으로 인해 나는 의무와 애정이 모두 요구하는 만큼 그녀에게 관심을 기울이지 못했고, 내가 그녀를 맡긴 가정교사가 그 책임을 감당하기에 부족할까 봐 두려워할 만한 이유가 너무 많습니다.
I have therefore resolved on placing her at one of the best private schools in town, where I shall have an opportunity of leaving her myself in my way to you.
그러므로 나는 그녀를 시내에서 가장 좋은 사립학교 중 하나에 보내기로 결심했습니다. 그러면 당신에게 가는 길에 내가 직접 그녀를 맡길 수 있을 것입니다.
I am determined, you see, not to be denied admittance at Churchhill.
보시다시피, 나는 처칠에 들어가는 것을 거부당하지 않기로 결심했습니다.
