In a future state, where there is neither marrying nor giving in marriage, but where, as you say, souls are attracted to each other by sympathy; there everything beautiful develops itself, and is raised to a higher state of existence: her soul will acquire such completeness that it may harmonize with yours, even more than mine, and you will then once more utter your first rapturous exclamation of your love, 'Beautiful, most beautiful!'"

결혼도 없고 시집가는 일도 없지만, 당신 말대로 영혼들이 서로 공감으로 끌리는 미래의 세계에서는, 모든 아름다운 것이 스스로 발전하여 더 높은 존재의 경지로 올라갑니다. 그녀의 영혼은 완전함을 얻어 나의 영혼보다도 더 당신의 영혼과 조화를 이룰 수 있을 것이며, 그때 당신은 다시 한 번 사랑의 첫 황홀한 탄성을 내뱉게 될 것입니다. '아름다워, 정말 아름다워!'라고요."

THE BEETLE WHO WENT ON HIS TRAVELS

여행을 떠난 딱정벌레

There was once an Emperor who had a horse shod with gold.

옛날에 말에게 황금 편자를 신긴 황제가 있었습니다.

He had a golden shoe on each foot, and why was this?

말은 네 발 모두에 황금 편자를 달고 있었는데, 그 이유는 무엇이었을까요?

He was a beautiful creature, with slender legs, bright, intelligent eyes, and a mane that hung down over his neck like a veil.

그 말은 가느다란 다리와 밝고 총명한 눈, 그리고 베일처럼 목 위로 늘어진 갈기를 가진 아름다운 동물이었습니다.

He had carried his master through fire and smoke in the battle-field, with the bullets whistling round him; he had kicked and bitten, and taken part in the fight, when the enemy advanced; and, with his master on his back, he had dashed over the fallen foe, and saved the golden crown and the Emperor's life, which was of more value than the brightest gold.

그 말은 총알이 사방에서 윙윙거리는 전장에서 주인을 불과 연기 속으로 데리고 다녔으며, 적이 진격해 올 때는 발길질하고 물어뜯으며 싸움에 가담하였습니다. 그리고 등에 주인을 태운 채 쓰러진 적군 위를 질주하여 황금 왕관과 황제의 목숨을 구해냈으니, 그것은 가장 빛나는 황금보다도 더 귀한 것이었습니다.

This is the reason of the Emperor's horse wearing golden shoes.

이것이 바로 황제의 말이 황금 편자를 신고 있는 이유입니다.

A beetle came creeping forth from the stable, where the farrier had been shoeing the horse.

편자장이가 말에게 편자를 박고 있던 마굿간에서 딱정벌레 한 마리가 기어 나왔습니다.

"Great ones, first, of course," said he, "and then the little ones; but size is not always a proof of greatness."

"물론 위대한 것들이 먼저지," 딱정벌레가 말했습니다. "그다음이 작은 것들이고. 하지만 크기가 항상 위대함의 증거는 아니야."
