Rightly speaking, it is improper, not to say illegal, for those sadly privileged few who go in and out of Broadmoor Criminal Asylum, to have pointed out to them any particular character, however notorious he may have been or to what heights of public interest his infamy had carried him, before the testifying doctors and a merciful jury consigned him to this place without hope.

정확히 말하자면, 브로드무어 형사 수용소를 드나드는 소수의 불행한 특권층에게 증언하는 의사들과 자비로운 배심원단이 그를 희망 없이 이 장소에 보내기 전에, 아무리 악명 높거나 대중의 관심을 얼마나 많이 끌었든 간에 특정 인물을 지적하는 것은 부적절할 뿐 아니라 불법이라고까지 할 수 있습니다.

But often had John Flack been pointed out as he shuffled about the grounds, his hands behind him, his chin on his breast, a tall, lean old man in an ill-fitting suit of drab clothing, who spoke to nobody and was spoken to by few.

그러나 존 플랙은 손을 뒤로 하고 턱을 가슴에 얹은 채 마당을 어슬렁거리는 모습이 자주 눈에 띄었는데, 키가 크고 마른 노인으로, 어울리지 않는 칙칙한 옷을 입고 있었고, 아무에게도 말을 걸지 않았으며, 말을 거는 사람도 거의 없었다.

“That is Flack--the Flack; the cleverest crook in the world… Crazy John Flack… nine murders…”

“저 사람이 바로 플랙이야—플랙 말이지; 세상에서 제일 영리한 사기꾼… 미친 존 플랙… 아홉 건의 살인…”

Men who were in Broadmoor for isolated homicides were rather proud of Old John in their queer, sane moments.

단발적인 살인죄로 브로드무어에 수감된 사람들은 이상하고 제정신인 순간에 올드 존을 꽤 자랑스러워했습니다.

The officers who locked him up at night and watched him as he slept had little to say against him, because he gave no trouble, and through all the six years of his incarceration had never once been seized of those frenzies which so often end in the hospital for some poor innocent devil, and a rubber-padded cell for the frantic author of misfortune.

밤에 그를 가두고 그가 자는 동안 감시했던 관리들은 그에게 할 말이 별로 없었습니다. 왜냐하면 그는 아무런 문제를 일으키지 않았고, 6년의 수감 생활 동안 한 번도 그런 광란에 사로잡힌 적이 없었기 때문입니다. 그런 광란은 종종 불쌍한 무고한 악마에게는 병원으로, 불행을 초래한 광란의 장본인에게는 고무 패드가 깔린 감방으로 끝나는 경우가 많습니다.

He spent most of his time writing and reading, for he was something of a genius with his pen, and wrote with extraordinary rapidity.

그는 대부분의 시간을 글을 쓰고 읽는 데 보냈는데, 그는 글솜씨가 천재적이었고 매우 빠른 속도로 글을 썼기 때문입니다.

He filled hundreds of little exercise books with his great treatise on crime.

그는 범죄에 관한 위대한 논문으로 수백 권의 작은 연습장을 가득 채웠습니다.

The Governor humoured him; allowed him to retain the books, expecting in due course to add them to his already interesting museum.

총독은 그의 비위를 맞춰주었고, 그가 책을 계속 소유하도록 허락했으며, 나중에 그것들을 이미 흥미로운 자신의 박물관에 추가할 수 있을 것이라고 기대했습니다.
