“If a man were to be raised in a balloon high enough above the continent of Europe to survey the whole of it at one view, he would see the land gradually rising from the borders of the sea on every side, towards a portion near the centre, where he would behold…” Rollo on the Rhine · Jacob Abbott

If a man were to be raised in a balloon high enough above the continent of Europe to survey the whole of it at one view, he would see the land gradually rising from the borders of the sea on every side, towards a portion near the centre, where he would behold a vast region of mountainous country, with torrents of water running down the slopes and through the valleys of it, while the summits were tipped with perpetual snow.

만일 어떤 사람이 기구를 타고 유럽 대륙 위로 충분히 높이 올라가서 대륙 전체를 한눈에 볼 수 있게 된다면, 그는 사방의 바다 경계에서부터 점차 솟아오르는 땅이 중심부 근처로 향하는 것을 보게 될 것이며, 그곳에는 산비탈과 계곡을 따라 급류가 흐르고 산봉우리에는 만년설이 덮인 광활한 산악 지대가 펼쳐져 있을 것이다.

The central part of this mass of mountains forms what is called Switzerland, the eastern part is the Tyrol, and the western Savoy.

이 산맥의 중앙부는 스위스라고 불리는 지역을 이루고, 동쪽은 티롤 지방이며, 서쪽은 사보이 지방입니다.

But though the men who live on these mountains have thus made three countries out of them, the whole region is in nature one.

그러나 이 산에 사는 사람들이 이렇게 세 나라를 만들었지만, 이 지역 전체는 본래 하나입니다.

It constitutes one mighty mass of mountainous land, which is lifted up so high into the air that all the summits rise into the regions of intense and perpetual cold, and so condense continually, from the atmosphere, inexhaustible quantities of rain and snow.

그것은 하나의 거대한 산악 지대를 이루고 있으며, 매우 높이 솟아올라 모든 봉우리가 극심하고 영원한 추위의 지역에 닿아 대기에서 끊임없이 무궁무진한 양의 비와 눈을 응결시킵니다.

The water which falls upon this mountainous region must of course find its way to the sea.

이 산악 지역에 내리는 물은 당연히 바다로 흘러가게 된다.

In doing so the thousands of smaller torrents unite with each other into larger and larger streams, until at length they make four mighty rivers--the largest and most celebrated in Europe.

그렇게 함으로써 수천 개의 작은 물줄기가 서로 합쳐져 점점 더 큰 물줄기가 되고 마침내 유럽에서 가장 크고 유명한 네 개의 거대한 강이 됩니다.

All the streams of the southern slopes of the mountains form one great river, which flows east into the Adriatic.

산 남쪽 경사면의 모든 시냇물은 하나의 큰 강을 이루어 동쪽으로 흘러 아드리아해로 들어갑니다.

This river is the Po.

이 강은 포강이다.
