To-day I was not alarmed, but I was filled with curiosity, and I determined to find out who he was and what he wanted.

そこでスサノオは根の国へ向う前に姉の天照大神に別れの挨拶をしようと高天原へ上るが、天照大神はスサノオが高天原に攻め入って来たのではと考えて武装してスサノオに応対し、スサノオは疑いを解くためにアマテラスとスサノオの誓約を行う。
So, he went up to Takamanohara in order to say goodbye to his sister, Amaterasu Omikami, before he left for Nenokuni, but Amaterasu Omikami thought Susano had come to attack Takamanohara, so she was armed and he pleaded his faith with Amaterasu so as to dispel her doubts.

小さな黒い人影が、急がず、落ち着いて真直ぐに池の深みへ向うあいだ──とてもゆっくりと、徐々に徐々に、波立たぬ平らな水面へ沈んでいき、ついには、彼女の胸元が水につかるまで歩いて進むあいだ──彼は、身じろぎせず立ち尽くしていた。
He stood motionless as the small black figure walked slowly and deliberately towards the centre of the pond, very slowly, gradually moving deeper into the motionless water, and still moving forward as the water got up to her breast.

こういう立場が科学者を宗教的な精神的枠組へと向うよう勧めることはあまりない(と思える)が、一方では、宗教的信念にもっと寛容にし、筋金入りのダーウィン主義者が創造論者の前で時にみせる挫折感の伴った激昂や嘲笑をあまりみせないようにする。
While such a stance would hardly (one would think) encourage the scientist to a religious frame of mind, it might well make him more tolerant of religious belief and less inclined to the sort of frustrated irritation and ridicule which hard-core Darwinists sometimes manifest in the face of Creationism.

大向う（大向こう、おおむこう）とは、芝居小屋の三階正面席、またそこに坐る客を指す隠語・通言（現在の歌舞伎座では、構造上三階Ｂ席から幕見席あたりを指すものとして理解されている。）、つまり大向うとは、舞台上から見た客席の位置に由来する。
O-muko (written as '大向う' or '大向こう'; literally, 'the welcome other side') comes originally from seats seen from the stage, and at present, it is used as a term referring to the front seats of the third floor of theatres and to the audience at those seats (in present Kabuki-za Theatre of Tokyo, it refers to the seats for b-class tickets and the seats on the highest balcony for a single act).

これに対しては、強力で勇敢な君主はその臣民に、あるときは災いは長くは続かないという希望を与え、またあるときは敵は残忍だという恐怖を与えて、彼にはあまりに向う見ずに思える臣民を巧みに避けて、こうした困難をすべて克服すだろうと、答えておきましょう。
to this I answer that a powerful and courageous prince will overcome all such difficulties by giving at one time hope to his subjects that the evil will not be for long, at another time fear of the cruelty of the enemy, then preserving himself adroitly from those subjects who seem to him to be too bold.

ウエルス人の鬘（註、老人の被る毛糸で編んだ帽子のこと。）を被った老紳士が、今二インチも自分の身丈（せい）が高かろうものなら、きっと天井に頭を打ち附けたろうと思われるような、丈の高い書机の向うに腰掛けているのを一目見ると、スクルージは非常に興奮して叫んだ。
At sight of an old gentleman in a Welsh wig, sitting behind such a high desk, that if he had been two inches taller he must have knocked his head against the ceiling, Scrooge cried in great excitement:

しかし人類が説得によって自分自身の改善へと向う能力を獲得するとすぐに(私たちが問題にしなくてはならない諸民族ではこの状態に到達してから久しいのですが)、直接的形態であれ、遵守しないことにたいする苦痛ないし刑罰という形であれ、強制はもはや自分自身に福利のための手段としては容認されず、他人の安全のためにだけ正当化されるのです。
But as soon as mankind have attained the capacity of being guided to their own improvement by conviction or persuasion (a period long since reached in all nations with whom we need here concern ourselves), compulsion, either in the direct form or in that of pains and penalties for non-compliance, is no longer admissible as a means to their own good, and justifiable only for the security of others.10

宗教的信仰は生存のための闘争では(困難な時期に希望を与え、他の人が生き残れないところで生存可能にしてくれて)大きな強みとなる(と論じることもできるわけだ)のだから、ダーウィン理論の無神論的含みを認めるのを拒否するのは、理論の点で完全に理にかなっている(宗教的信念に向う傾向のようなものが遺伝的な形質だと認めるなら、なおさらそうだ)。
Since a religious faith (one could argue) is a great asset in the struggle for life (giving hope in hard times, enabling a person to survive where another might fail), then the refusal to accept the atheistic implications of Darwinian theory is perfectly understandable in terms of that theory (especially if we accept that something like a predisposition to religious belief is a heritable trait).
