TREASURE ISLAND 035 – XXVII“Pieces of Eight” – 003

These last I broke through with a sudden jerk, and then regained the deck by the starboard shrouds.
For nothing in the world would I have again ventured, shaken as I was, upon the overhanging port shrouds from which Israel had so lately fallen.

I went below and did what I could for my wound; it pained me a good deal and still bled freely, but it was neither deep nor dangerous, nor did it greatly gall me when I used my arm.
Then I looked around me, and as the ship was now, in a sense, my own, I began to think of clearing it from its last passenger—the dead man, O’Brien.

He had pitched, as I have said, against the bulwarks, where he lay like some horrible, ungainly sort of puppet, life-size, indeed, but how different from life’s colour or life’s comeliness! In that position I could easily have my way with him, and as the habit of tragical adventures had worn off almost all my terror for the dead, I took him by the waist as if he had been a sack of bran and with one good heave, tumbled him overboard.
He went in with a sounding plunge; the red cap came off and remained floating on the surface; and as soon as the splash subsided, I could see him and Israel lying side by side, both wavering with the tremulous movement of the water.
O’Brien, though still quite a young man, was very bald.
There he lay, with that bald head across the knees of the man who had killed him and the quick fishes steering to and fro over both.

   나는 아래로 내려가서 상처를 처리할 수 있는 한 했다. 상처는 꽤 아팠고 여전히 피가 났지만 깊지 않아서 위험하지 않았다. 팔을 사용할 때도 큰 불편함은 없었다.

   그 위치에서 나무 인형처럼 쉬이 그를 조종할 수 있었고, 비극적인 모험에 대한 습관이 죽음에 대한 공포를 거의 사라지게 한 탓에, 그의 허리를 잡고 한 바탕 힘껏 밀어서 물 밖으로 던져버렸다.
