Towards me turning, blithe as beautiful, Said unto me: “Fix gratefully your mind On God, who unto the first star has brought us.”
나를 향해 돌아서서, 아름다운 듯 쾌활하게 내게 이르되 “우리를 첫째 별로 인도하신 하나님께 감사하는 마음을 두십시오.”
It seemed to me a cloud encompassed us, Luminous, dense, consolidate and bright As adamant on which the sun is striking.
내게는 구름이 우리를 에워싼 것 같았는데, 빛나고 빽빽하고 견고하며 밝아서 마치 태양이 내리쬐는 단단한 금속 같았습니다.
Into itself did the eternal pearl Receive us, even as water does receive A ray of light, remaining still unbroken.
영원한 진주는 마치 물이 한 줄기 빛을 받아들여 그대로 남아 있는 것처럼 우리를 그 안으로 받아들였습니다.
If I was body, (and we here conceive not How one dimension tolerates another, Which needs must be if body enter body,)
만일 내가 육체라면, (그리고 우리는 여기서 한 차원이 다른 차원을 어떻게 용인하는지 이해하지 못하는데, 육체가 육체에 들어간다면 이는 필연적으로 필요한 것이다.)
More the desire should be enkindled in us That essence to behold, wherein is seen How God and our own nature were united.
더욱이 우리 안에는 하나님과 우리 본성이 어떻게 하나 되었는지를 볼 수 있는 그 본질을 바라보고자 하는 열망이 타올라야 합니다.
There will be seen what we receive by faith, Not demonstrated, but self-evident In guise of the first truth that man believes.
믿음으로 받은 것이 드러나게 될 것이니, 증명할 필요도 없고, 사람이 믿는 첫째 진리의 모습으로 명백히 드러나게 될 것이다.
I made reply: “Madonna, as devoutly As most I can do I give thanks to Him Who has removed me from the mortal world.
내가 대답했습니다. “성모님, 제가 할 수 있는 가장 경건한 마음으로 저를 이 세상에서 데려가신 그분께 감사드립니다.
But tell me what the dusky spots may be Upon this body, which below on earth Make people tell that fabulous tale of Cain?”
그런데 이 몸에 있는 그 어두운 반점들은 도대체 무엇이며, 그것 때문에 사람들이 땅에서 카인에 대한 허황된 이야기를 퍼뜨리는 것입니까?
