About the book
A novel of the Third Crusade featuring a Scottish knight, Richard the Lionheart and the Muslim leader Saladin. Intrigue among the Crusader leaders and a mysterious physician drive the story.
From the text
“The burning sun of Syria had not yet attained its highest point in the horizon, when a knight of the Red Cross, who had left his distant northern home and joined the host of the Crusaders in Palestine, was pacing slowly along the sandy deserts which lie in…”
The Talisman · Sir Walter Scott

The dress of the rider and the accoutrements of his horse were peculiarly unfit for the traveller in such a country.
기수의 복장과 말의 장비는 그러한 나라를 여행하는 사람에게는 특히 적합하지 않았습니다.
A coat of linked mail, with long sleeves, plated gauntlets, and a steel breastplate, had not been esteemed a sufficient weight of armour; there were also his triangular shield suspended round his neck, and his barred helmet of steel, over which he had a hood and collar of mail, which was drawn around the warrior's shoulders and throat, and filled up the vacancy between the hauberk and the headpiece.
긴 소매가 달린 사슬 갑옷, 판금 장갑, 강철 흉갑은 충분한 갑옷의 무게로 여겨지지 않았습니다. 또한 목에는 삼각형 방패가 걸려 있었고, 강철로 된 쇠창살 투구가 있었으며, 그 위에는 사슬 갑옷으로 된 두건과 깃이 어깨와 목을 감싸고 갑옷과 투구 사이의 빈 공간을 채웠습니다.
His lower limbs were sheathed, like his body, in flexible mail, securing the legs and thighs, while the feet rested in plated shoes, which corresponded with the gauntlets.
그의 하지는 몸과 마찬가지로 유연한 갑옷으로 덮여 다리와 허벅지를 단단히 고정했고, 발은 장갑과 어울리는 판금 신발을 신고 있었다.
A long, broad, straight-shaped, double-edged falchion, with a handle formed like a cross, corresponded with a stout poniard on the other side.
길고 넓고 곧은 모양의 양날 검으로, 손잡이는 십자 모양이며, 반대쪽에는 튼튼한 단검이 달려 있다.
The knight also bore, secured to his saddle, with one end resting on his stirrup, the long steel-headed lance, his own proper weapon, which, as he rode, projected backwards, and displayed its little pennoncelle, to dally with the faint breeze, or drop in the dead calm.
기사는 또한 안장에 단단히 고정하고 한쪽 끝을 등자에 올려놓은 긴 강철 날이 달린 창을 가지고 다녔는데, 이는 그가 말을 탈 때 뒤로 뻗어 나가 작은 깃발을 드러내어 미풍에 흔들리거나 바람이 전혀 없는 고요한 곳에 떨어지곤 했습니다.
To this cumbrous equipment must be added a surcoat of embroidered cloth, much frayed and worn, which was thus far useful that it excluded the burning rays of the sun from the armour, which they would otherwise have rendered intolerable to the wearer.
이 거추장스러운 장비에 수놓은 천으로 만든 겉옷을 덧입어야 했는데, 이 겉옷은 많이 해지고 닳았지만, 태양의 뜨거운 광선이 갑옷에 닿지 않도록 막아주는 역할을 했습니다. 그렇지 않았다면 갑옷은 입는 사람에게 견딜 수 없는 고통을 주었을 것입니다.
The surcoat bore, in several places, the arms of the owner, although much defaced.
겉옷에는 여러 곳에 주인의 문장이 새겨져 있었지만, 많이 훼손되어 있었다.
These seemed to be a couchant leopard, with the motto, “I sleep; wake me not.”
이것들은 마치 “나는 자고 있으니 나를 깨우지 마시오”라는 좌우명을 가진 엎드린 표범 같았습니다.
