East of the Sun and West of the Moon: Old Tales from the North — Page 138
Aye, aye, that's the _Troll_ and his crew," said the _Horse_; "now he's got more to back him; but now throw down the stone, and mind you throw it far behind me."
"그래, 그래, 저건 트롤과 그의 무리야," 말이 말했다. "이제 그를 돕는 자들이 더 생겼구나. 하지만 이제 돌을 던져, 내 뒤 멀리 던지도록 해."
And as soon as the lad did what the _Horse_ said, up rose a great black hill of rock behind him.
그리고 소년이 말이 시키는 대로 하자마자, 그의 뒤에 커다란 검은 바위 언덕이 솟아올랐다.
So the _Troll_ had to be off home to fetch something to mine his way through the rock; and while the _Troll_ did that, the lad rode a good bit further on.
그래서 트롤은 바위를 뚫을 무언가를 가져오기 위해 집으로 돌아가야 했다. 트롤이 그러는 동안, 소년은 꽤 더 멀리 말을 타고 나아갔다.
But still the _Horse_ begged him to look behind him, and then he saw a troop like a whole army behind him, and they glistened in the sunbeams.
하지만 말은 여전히 그에게 뒤를 돌아보라고 간청했고, 그러자 소년은 뒤에 마치 전군과 같은 무리가 있는 것을 보았는데, 그들은 햇빛 속에 번쩍이고 있었다.
[Illustration: But still the Horse begged him to look behind him.]
[삽화: 하지만 말은 여전히 그에게 뒤를 돌아보라고 간청했다.]
"Aye, aye," said the _Horse_, "that's the _Troll_, and now he's got his whole band with him, so throw the pitcher of water behind you, but mind you don't spill any of it upon me."
"그래, 그래," 말이 말했다. "저건 트롤인데, 이제 그는 부하 전체를 데리고 왔어. 그러니 물 주전자를 네 뒤로 던져, 하지만 나한테는 한 방울도 흘리지 않도록 조심해."
So the lad did that; but in spite of all the pains he took, he still spilt one drop on the horse's flank.
그래서 소년은 그렇게 했다. 하지만 아무리 조심했어도, 그는 여전히 말의 옆구리에 한 방울을 흘리고 말았다.
So it became a great deep lake; and because of that one drop, the horse found himself far out in it, but still he swam safe to land.
그러자 그것은 크고 깊은 호수가 되었다. 그 한 방울 때문에 말은 호수 한가운데 있게 되었지만, 그래도 안전하게 육지까지 헤엄쳐 나왔다.
But when the _Trolls_ came to the lake, they lay down to drink it dry; and so they swilled and swilled till they burst.
하지만 트롤들이 호수에 이르렀을 때, 그들은 호수를 다 마시려고 드러누웠다. 그렇게 그들은 벌컥벌컥 마시고 또 마시다가 결국 터져버렸다.
"Now we're rid of them," said the _Horse_.
"이제 우리는 그들에게서 벗어났어," 말이 말했다.
