TREASURE ISLAND 033 – XXVI Strike the Jolly Roger – 002

There were the two watchmen, sure enough: red-cap on his back, as stiff as a handspike, with his arms stretched out like those of a crucifix and his teeth showing through his open lips; Israel Hands propped against the bulwarks, his chin on his chest, his hands lying open before him on the deck, his face as white, under its tan, as a tallow candle.

For a while the ship kept bucking and sidling like a vicious horse, the sails filling, now on one tack, now on another, and the boom swinging to and fro till the mast groaned aloud under the strain.
Now and again too there would come a cloud of light sprays over the bulwark and a heavy blow of the ship’s bows against the swell; so much heavier weather was made of it by this great rigged ship than by my home-made, lop-sided coracle, now gone to the bottom of the sea.

At every jump of the schooner, red-cap slipped to and fro, but—what was ghastly to behold—neither his attitude nor his fixed teeth-disclosing grin was anyway disturbed by this rough usage.
At every jump too, Hands appeared still more to sink into himself and settle down upon the deck, his feet sliding ever the farther out, and the whole body canting towards the stern, so that his face became, little by little, hid from me; and at last I could see nothing beyond his ear and the frayed ringlet of one whisker.

At the same time, I observed, around both of them, splashes of dark blood upon the planks and began to feel sure that they had killed each other in their drunken wrath.

While I was thus looking and wondering, in a calm moment, when the ship was still, Israel Hands turned partly round and with a low moan writhed himself back to the position in which I had seen him first.
The moan, which told of pain and deadly weakness, and the way in which his jaw hung open went right to my heart.

   그곳에는 확실히 두 명의 파수꾼이 있었다. 빨간 모자를 쓴 사람은 마치 쇠막대처럼 뻣뻣하게 누워 있었고, 그의 팔은 십자가처럼 벌어져 있었고, 그의 입술이 벌어진 사이로 이가 보였다. 이스라엘 핸즈는 난간에 기대어 있었고, 그의 턱은 가슴 위에 놓여 있었으며, 손은 갑판 위에 펼쳐져 있었다. 그의 칙칙한 얼굴은 활락한 초처럼 하얗게 되었었다.

   때때로 가벼운 물보라가 방어벽을 넘기도 했고, 파도에 맞서는 배의 뱃머리에 강한 충격이 왔다. 이런 큰 돛단배가 내 손으로 만들고 비대칭적으로 만든 작은 배인 코라클보다 훨씬 더 악천후에 견디기 힘들어 보였다.

   스쿠너가 뛰어오를 때마다 빨간 모자는 이리저리 미끄러졌지만, 놀랍게도 그의 자세나 입을 벌리고 드러난 이의 고정된 미소는 이 거친 움직임에 전혀 영향을 받지 않았다. 또한, 각 점프마다 핸즈는 점점 더 몸이 가라앉고 갑판에 정착하며, 그의 발은 점점 더 멀리 미끄러졌고, 그의 몸 전체가 선미 쪽으로 기울어져서 그의 얼굴은 점점 더 나에게서 가려졌다. 결국 나는 그의 귀와 헝클어진 고리 모양의 수염 한 가닥 이외에는 아무것도 볼 수 없게 되었다.

   내가 이렇듯 보고 놀라워하고 있을 때, 배가 잠시 고요해지자 이스라엘 핸즈는 몸을 일부 돌렸고, 낮은 신음소리와 함께 처음 그를 보았던 자세로 몸을 비틂으로써 돌아갔다. 그 신음은 몹시 고통스럽고 치명적인 약함을 나타내었으며, 그의 턱이 벌어진 채로 있는 모습은 내 가슴을 찔렀다.




⦁ writhe: 몸을 비틀다 – He writhed in pain. (그는 고통 속에서 몸을 비틀었다.)
