The year 1866 was signalised by a remarkable incident, a mysterious and puzzling phenomenon, which doubtless no one has yet forgotten.

1866년은 주목할 만한 사건, 불가사의하고 당혹스러운 현상으로 특징지어졌는데, 이는 의심할 여지 없이 아직 아무도 잊지 못했습니다.

Not to mention rumours which agitated the maritime population and excited the public mind, even in the interior of continents, seafaring men were particularly excited.

해양 인구를 동요시키고 대륙 내부까지 대중의 마음을 들뜨게 하는 소문은 말할 것도 없고, 특히 항해하는 사람들은 더욱 흥분했습니다.

Merchants, common sailors, captains of vessels, skippers, both of Europe and America, naval officers of all countries, and the Governments of several states on the two continents, were deeply interested in the matter.

유럽과 아메리카의 상인, 일반 선원, 선장, 선박 지휘관, 모든 국가의 해군 장교, 그리고 두 대륙에 있는 여러 국가의 정부들이 이 문제에 깊은 관심을 가지고 있었습니다.

For some time past, vessels had been met by “an enormous thing,” a long object, spindle-shaped, occasionally phosphorescent, and infinitely larger and more rapid in its movements than a whale.

얼마 전부터 배들은 “엄청나게 큰 것”을 만났는데, 그것은 길고 방추형이며 때때로 형광을 띠고 고래보다 훨씬 크고 움직임도 훨씬 빨랐습니다.

The facts relating to this apparition (entered in various log-books) agreed in most respects as to the shape of the object or creature in question, the untiring rapidity of its movements, its surprising power of locomotion, and the peculiar life with which it seemed endowed.

이 현상에 관한 사실들(다양한 기록부에 기록됨)은 문제의 물체나 생물의 모양, 지칠 줄 모르는 빠른 움직임, 놀라운 이동 능력, 그리고 마치 부여받은 듯한 특이한 생명력에 관하여 대부분 일치했습니다.

If it was a cetacean, it surpassed in size all those hitherto classified in science.

만일 그것이 고래류였다면, 그것은 지금까지 과학적으로 분류된 모든 고래류보다 크기가 더 컸을 것이다.

Taking into consideration the mean of observations made at divers times,—rejecting the timid estimate of those who assigned to this object a length of two hundred feet, equally with the exaggerated opinions which set it down as a mile in width and three in length,—we might fairly conclude that this mysterious being surpassed greatly all dimensions admitted by the ichthyologists of the day, if it existed at all.

여러 시대에 걸쳐 이루어진 관찰의 평균을 고려해 볼 때, 이 물체의 길이를 200피트로 추정한 사람들의 소심한 평가와 너비를 1마일, 길이를 3마일로 추정한 과장된 의견을 모두 배제한다면, 이 신비로운 존재가 실제로 존재했다면 당시 어류학자들이 인정했던 모든 크기를 훨씬 뛰어넘었을 것이라고 결론지을 수 있을 것입니다.

And that it did exist was an undeniable fact; and, with that tendency which disposes the human mind in favour of the marvellous, we can understand the excitement produced in the entire world by this supernatural apparition.

그리고 그것이 실제로 존재했다는 것은 부인할 수 없는 사실이었습니다. 인간의 마음은 경이로운 것을 선호하는 경향이 있기에, 우리는 이 초자연적인 출현으로 인해 온 세상이 흥분한 것을 이해할 수 있습니다.
