Larry Holt sat before the Café de la Paix, watching the stream of life flow east and west along the Boulevard des Italiens.
Larry Holt는 카페 드 라 페 앞에 앉아 Boulevard des Italiens를 따라 동서로 흐르는 삶의 흐름을 바라보았습니다.
The breath of spring was in the air; the trees were bursting into buds of vivid green; the cloud-flecked skies were blue; and a flood of golden sunshine brought out the colours of the kiosks, and gave an artistic value even to the flaring advertisements.
봄기운이 공중에 가득하고 나무들은 선명한 초록빛 새싹을 틔우고 있었으며 구름이 흩뿌려진 하늘은 푸르고 황금빛 햇살이 가판대의 색깔을 더욱 돋보이게 하여 번쩍이는 광고판에도 예술적인 가치를 부여했습니다.
Crowded motor-buses rumbled by, little taxis dashed wildly in and out of the traffic, to the mortal peril of unsuspecting pedestrians.
만원 버스들이 덜컹거리며 지나가고, 작은 택시들이 교통 속에서 정신없이 질주하여 아무것도 모르는 보행자들을 위험에 빠뜨렸습니다.
A gendarme, with cloak over his shoulder, stood in a conventional attitude on the kerb, his hand behind him, staring at nothing, and along the sidewalk there were hurrying bareheaded girls, slow-moving old men, and marching poilus.
망토를 어깨에 걸친 헌병이 손을 뒤로 한 채 관례적인 자세로 길가에 서서 아무것도 응시하지 않고 있었고, 인도에는 머리가 없는 소녀들이 서둘러 가고, 노인들이 느릿느릿 움직이고, 경찰들이 행진하고 있었다.
Itinerant vendors of wares loafed past the tables of the café, dusky-faced Arabs with their carpets on their arms, seedy-looking men who hawked bundles of picture post cards and would produce, at the slightest encouragement, cards which were not for the public gaze.
떠돌이 노점상들이 카페 테이블 사이를 어슬렁거렸는데, 팔에 양탄자를 걸친 거무스름한 얼굴의 아랍인들과 그림 엽서 묶음을 파는 초라해 보이는 남자들이었고, 조금만 부추기면 공개적으로 볼 수 없는 엽서를 꺼내 보이기도 했습니다.
All these things and people were a delight to Larry Holt, who had just returned from Berlin after four years’ strenuous work in France and Germany, and felt in that holiday spirit to which even the mind of a detective will ascend.
이 모든 것들과 사람들은 래리 홀트에게 기쁨을 주었는데, 그는 프랑스와 독일에서 4년간의 고된 일을 마치고 베를린에서 막 돌아왔고, 탐정의 마음조차도 느낄 수 있는 휴가 분위기에 흠뻑 빠져 있었습니다.
The position occupied by Larry Holt was something of a mystery to the officials of Scotland Yard.
래리 홀트가 차지했던 직책은 스코틀랜드 야드의 관리들에게는 다소 수수께끼 같은 것이었다.
His rank was Inspector, his work was the administrative work of a Commissioner; and it was generally understood that he was in the line for the first vacant assistant commissionership that came along.
그의 직위는 검사관이었고, 그의 업무는 위원의 행정 업무였으며, 일반적으로 그는 공석이 된 첫 번째 부위원직에 오를 예정이라는 것이 알려져 있었습니다.
