I smell Christian flesh and blood in my house," said he.
"내 집에서 기독교인의 살과 피 냄새가 나는군," 그가 말했다.
"Yes," answered the _Princess_, "a raven flew past here just now, and in his beak he had a human bone, which he dropped down the chimney; I threw it out and swept and cleaned up after it, but I suppose it still smells."
"네," 공주가 대답했다, "방금 까마귀 한 마리가 이곳을 날아갔는데, 그 부리에 사람의 뼈를 물고 있다가 굴뚝으로 떨어뜨렸어요. 제가 그것을 밖으로 던지고 쓸고 닦았는데, 아직도 냄새가 나는 것 같네요."
"So it does," said the troll.
"그렇군," 트롤이 말했다.
"But come and lie down and I'll scratch your heads," said the _Princess_; "the smell will be gone by the time you wake."
"자, 이리 누우세요, 제가 머리를 긁어드릴게요," 공주가 말했다. "일어나실 때쯤이면 냄새가 사라질 거예요."
[Illustration: The Troll was quite willing, and before long he fell asleep and began snoring.]
[삽화: 트롤은 기꺼이 응했고, 얼마 지나지 않아 잠이 들어 코를 골기 시작했다.]
The troll was quite willing, and before long he fell asleep and began snoring.
트롤은 기꺼이 응했고, 얼마 지나지 않아 잠이 들어 코를 골기 시작했다.
When she saw he was sleeping soundly, she placed some stools and cushions under his heads and went to call the hens.
그가 깊이 잠든 것을 확인한 그녀는 그의 머리들 아래에 의자와 쿠션을 받쳐 놓고 닭들을 부르러 갔다.
The soldier then stole into the room with the sword, and with one blow cut all the three heads off the troll.
그러자 병사는 칼을 들고 방 안으로 몰래 들어가, 단 한 번의 일격으로 트롤의 머리 세 개를 모두 잘라버렸다.
The _Princess_ was as pleased as a fiddler, and went with the soldier to her sisters, so that he could also set them free.
공주는 매우 기뻐하며, 병사와 함께 언니들에게로 가서 그가 언니들도 구해줄 수 있도록 했다.
First of all they went across a courtyard and then through many long rooms till they came to a big door.
먼저 그들은 안뜰을 가로질러 긴 방들을 여럿 지나 큰 문 앞에 이르렀다.
"Here you must enter: here she is," said the _Princess_.
"여기로 들어가세요. 언니가 여기 있어요," 공주가 말했다.
When he opened the door he found himself in a large hall, where everything was of pure silver; there sat the second sister at a silver spinning-wheel.
그가 문을 열자 순은으로 된 모든 것이 가득한 넓은 홀이 나타났고, 그 안에서 둘째 언니가 은빛 물레 앞에 앉아 있었다.
"Oh, dear; oh, dear!"
"어머나, 어머나!"
