When young Stover disembarked at the Trenton station on the fourth day after the opening of the spring term he had acquired in his brief journey so much of the Pennsylvania rolling stock as could be detached and concealed.

봄학기가 시작된 지 4일째 되는 날, 젊은 스토버가 트렌턴 역에 내렸을 때, 그는 짧은 여정 동안 분리하여 숨길 수 있는 펜실베이니아 철도 차량의 많은 부분을 획득했습니다.

Inserted between his nether and outer shirts were two gilt "Directions to Travelers" which clung like mustard plasters to his back, while a jagged tin sign, wrenched from the home terminal, embraced his stomach with the painful tenacity of the historic Spartan fox.

그의 아랫부분과 겉옷 사이에는 금박을 입힌 "여행자 안내" 두 장이 끼워져 있었는데, 그것은 마치 겨자 반창고처럼 그의 등에 달라붙어 있었고, 집 터미널에서 뜯어낸 들쭉날쭉한 양철 간판은 역사적인 스파르타 여우처럼 고통스러울 정도로 그의 배를 감싸고 있었습니다.

In his pockets were objects--small objects but precious and dangerous to unscrew and acquire.

그의 주머니에는 물건들이 들어 있었다. 작지만 귀중하고 위험한 물건들이었는데, 그것들을 풀어서 손에 넣으면 위험할 수 있었다.

Being forced to wait, he sat now, preternaturally stiff, perched on a heap of trunks, clutching a broken dress-suit case which had been re-enforced with particolored strings.

기다려야만 했던 그는 이제 뻣뻣하게 짐 더미 위에 앉아, 여러 색깔의 끈으로 보강된 부서진 정장 가방을 움켜쥐고 있었다.

There was about young Stover, when properly washed, a certain air of cherubim that instantly struck the observer; his tousled tow hair had a cathedral tone, his cheek was guileless and his big blue eyes had an upward cast toward the angels which, as in the present moment when he was industriously exchanging a check labeled Baltimore to a trunk bound for Jersey City, was absolutely convincing.

젊은 스토버는 깨끗하게 씻었을 때 보는 이에게 즉시 각인되는 케루빔 같은 분위기를 풍겼습니다. 그의 헝클어진 금발 머리는 성당에서 볼 법한 색깔이었고, 그의 뺨은 순진했으며, 그의 크고 푸른 눈은 천사들을 향해 위를 바라보고 있었습니다. 지금 이 순간, 그가 볼티모어라고 적힌 수표를 저지시티행 트렁크에 부지런히 옮겨 담고 있을 때처럼, 그 모습은 정말 설득력이 있었습니다.

But from the limit whence the cherub continueth not the imp began.

그러나 그룹 천사가 계속되는 경계에서 악마가 시작된 것이 아닙니다.

His collar was crumpled and smutty with the descent of many signs, a salmon-pink necktie had quarreled with a lavender shirt and retreated toward one ear, one cuff had broken loose and one sulked up the sleeve.

그의 옷깃은 여러 가지 흔적으로 구겨지고 더러워졌으며, 연어색 넥타이는 연보라색 셔츠와 다투다가 한쪽 귀 쪽으로 물러났고, 한쪽 소매단은 풀려 나갔고 다른 한쪽은 소매 위로 올라가 있었다.

His green serge pockets bulged in every direction, while the striped blue-and-white trousers, already outgrown, stuck to the knees and halted short of a pair of white socks that in turn disappeared into a pair of razor-pointed patent-leathers.

그의 녹색 서지 주머니는 사방으로 불룩했고, 이미 작아진 파란색과 흰색 줄무늬 바지는 무릎에 달라붙어 있었고, 흰색 양말을 신지 않은 채 끝자락이 날카로운 에나멜 가죽 구두 속으로 사라졌다.
