sounded the Bell, when the tower still stood there; and one evening, while the sun was setting, and the Bell was swinging away bravely, it broke loose and came flying down through the air, the brilliant metal shining in the ruddy beam.

탑이 아직 그 자리에 서 있을 때 종이 울렸다. 그리고 어느 날 저녁, 해가 지고 있는 동안 종이 힘차게 흔들리다가 줄이 끊어져 공중으로 날아 내려왔는데, 그 찬란한 금속이 붉은 햇살 속에서 빛을 발했다.

"Ding-dong! ding-dong! Now I'll retire to rest!" sang the Bell, and flew down into the Odense-Au, where it is deepest; and that is why the place is called the "bell-deep."

"딩동! 딩동! 이제 나는 쉬러 가겠어!" 종이 노래하며 오덴세 강의 가장 깊은 곳으로 날아 내려갔다. 그래서 그 장소가 "종의 깊은 곳"이라 불리게 된 것이다.

But the Bell got neither rest nor sleep. Down in the Au-mann's haunt it sounds and rings, so that the tones sometimes pierce upward through the waters; and many people maintain that its strains forebode the death of some one; but that is not true, for the Bell is only talking with the Au-mann, who is now no longer alone.

그러나 종은 휴식도 잠도 얻지 못했다. 강의 정령이 사는 곳 깊은 곳에서 종은 소리를 내고 울리며, 그 음색이 때로는 물 위로 뚫고 올라오기도 한다. 많은 사람들은 그 소리가 누군가의 죽음을 예고한다고 주장하지만, 그것은 사실이 아니다. 종은 그저 이제 더 이상 혼자가 아닌 강의 정령과 이야기를 나누고 있을 뿐이다.

And what is the Bell telling? It is old, very old, as we have already observed; it was there long before grandmother's grandmother was born; and yet it is but a child in comparison with the Au-mann, who is quite an old quiet personage, an oddity, with his hose of eel-skin, and his scaly Jacket with the yellow lilies for buttons, and a wreath of reed in his hair and seaweed in his beard; but he looks very pretty for all that.

그렇다면 종은 무슨 이야기를 하고 있는 걸까? 종은 오래되었다, 우리가 이미 언급했듯이 매우 오래되었다. 할머니의 할머니가 태어나기 훨씬 전부터 그곳에 있었다. 그러나 그것도 강의 정령에 비하면 어린아이에 불과하다. 강의 정령은 꽤 늙고 조용한 존재로, 뱀장어 가죽으로 만든 바지를 입고, 노란 백합을 단추로 달고 비늘 같은 재킷을 걸치고 있으며, 머리에는 갈대 화환을 쓰고 수염에는 해초가 엉켜 있는 기묘한 모습이다. 그러나 그 모든 것에도 불구하고 그는 꽤 아름다워 보인다.
