Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 255
All of us, excepting the water-bucket, which is sometimes taken into the courtyard, live here together within these four walls.
우물 두레박을 제외한 우리 모두는, 그것은 가끔 안뜰로 가져가지지만, 이 네 벽 안에서 함께 살고 있습니다.
We get our news from the market-basket, but he sometimes tells us very unpleasant things about the people and the government.
우리는 장바구니에게서 소식을 듣는데, 그는 때때로 사람들과 정부에 대해 매우 불쾌한 것들을 이야기합니다.
Yes, and one day an old pot was so alarmed, that he fell down and was broken to pieces.
그렇습니다, 어느 날 낡은 냄비가 너무 놀란 나머지, 쓰러져서 산산조각이 났습니다.
He was a liberal, I can tell you.'
그는 자유주의자였답니다, 제가 말씀드릴 수 있어요.'
"'You are talking too much,' said the tinder-box, and the steel struck against the flint till some sparks flew out, crying, 'We want a merry evening, don't we?'
"'당신은 말이 너무 많군요,'라고 부싯깃통이 말했고, 쇠가 부싯돌을 쳐서 불꽃이 튀어 오르며 외쳤습니다, '우리는 즐거운 저녁을 원하지 않나요?'
"'Yes, of course,' said the matches, 'let us talk about those who are the highest born.'
"'네, 물론이죠,'라고 성냥들이 말했습니다, '가장 높은 태생을 가진 이들에 대해 이야기해 봅시다.'
"'No, I don't like to be always talking of what we are,' remarked the saucepan; 'let us think of some other amusement; I will begin.
"'아니요, 저는 우리가 무엇인지에 대해 항상 이야기하는 것을 좋아하지 않아요,'라고 냄비가 말했습니다; '다른 즐거운 것을 생각해 봅시다; 제가 시작하겠습니다.
We will tell something that has happened to ourselves; that will be very easy, and interesting as well.

On the Baltic Sea, near the Danish shore'--
발트해에서, 덴마크 해안 근처에서'--
"'What a pretty commencement!' said the plates; 'we shall all like that story, I am sure.'
"'얼마나 아름다운 시작인가요!'라고 접시들이 말했습니다; '우리 모두 그 이야기를 좋아할 것이 분명해요.'
"'Yes; well in my youth, I lived in a quiet family, where the furniture was polished, the floors scoured, and clean curtains put up every fortnight.'
"'네; 제 어린 시절에, 저는 가구가 잘 닦이고, 바닥이 깨끗이 문질러지고, 2주마다 깨끗한 커튼이 걸리는 조용한 가정에서 살았습니다.'
"'What an interesting way you have of relating a story,' said the carpet-broom; 'it is easy to perceive that you have been a great deal in women's society, there is something so pure runs through what you say.'
"'이야기를 전하는 방식이 참으로 흥미롭군요,'라고 카펫 빗자루가 말했습니다; '당신이 여성들과 많은 시간을 보내왔다는 것을 쉽게 알 수 있어요, 당신의 말에는 무언가 순수한 것이 흐르고 있습니다.'
