The candlestick was in the form of an angel holding a nosegay, in the centre of which the wax taper was to be placed.

촛대는 꽃다발을 들고 있는 천사의 형상으로 만들어져 있었으며, 그 중앙에 밀랍 초가 꽂히도록 되어 있었다.

It was to stand on a green writing table, in a very pleasant room; many books were scattered about, and splendid paintings hung on the walls.

그것은 매우 아늑한 방 안의 초록색 책상 위에 놓일 예정이었으며, 주변에는 많은 책들이 흩어져 있었고, 훌륭한 그림들이 벽에 걸려 있었다.

The owner of the room was a poet, and a man of intellect; everything he thought or wrote was pictured around him.

방의 주인은 시인이자 지성인이었으며, 그가 생각하고 쓴 모든 것이 그의 주변에 형상화되어 있었다.

Nature showed herself to him sometimes in the dark forests, at others in cheerful meadows where the storks were strutting about, or on the deck of a ship sailing across the foaming sea with the clear, blue sky above, or at night the glittering stars.

자연은 때로는 어두운 숲속에서, 때로는 황새들이 활보하는 밝고 명랑한 초원에서, 혹은 맑고 푸른 하늘 아래 거품이 이는 바다를 가로지르는 배의 갑판 위에서, 또는 밤에는 반짝이는 별들로 그에게 그 모습을 드러냈다.

"What powers I possess!" said the lamp, awaking from his dream; "I could almost wish to be melted down; but no, that must not be while the old people live.

"나는 얼마나 대단한 능력을 가지고 있는가!" 라고 등불은 꿈에서 깨어나며 말했다. "나는 거의 녹아 없어지고 싶은 마음이 들 정도였다. 하지만 아니야, 노인들이 살아 있는 동안은 그래서는 안 된다.

They love me for myself alone, they keep me bright, and supply me with oil.

그들은 오로지 나 자체를 사랑하며, 나를 밝게 닦아 주고, 기름을 채워 준다.

I am as well off as the picture of the congress, in which they take so much pleasure."

나는 그들이 그토록 즐거워하는 의회 그림만큼이나 행복하다."

And from that time he felt at rest in himself, and not more so than such an honorable old lamp really deserved to be.

그리고 그때부터 등불은 마음속에 평안함을 느꼈으며, 그것은 그토록 훌륭하고 오래된 등불이 진정으로 누릴 자격이 있는 것이었다.

OLE-LUK-OIE, THE DREAM-GOD

올레-루크-오이에, 꿈의 신

There is nobody in the world who knows so many stories as Ole-Luk-Oie, or who can relate them so nicely.

세상에서 올레-루크-오이에만큼 많은 이야기를 알고 있거나, 그만큼 아름답게 이야기를 들려줄 수 있는 사람은 아무도 없다.
