I am getting beautifully fat," said the pea, "I expect I shall burst at last; no pea could do more that that, I think; I am the most remarkable of all the five which were in the shell."

"나는 점점 아름답게 살이 찌고 있어," 완두콩이 말했습니다. "결국에는 터질 것 같아. 어떤 완두콩도 그 이상은 할 수 없을 거야. 나는 꼬투리 안에 있던 다섯 개 중에서 가장 놀라운 완두콩이야."

And the sink confirmed the opinion.

그리고 하수구는 그 의견에 동의했습니다.

But the young maiden stood at the open garret window, with sparkling eyes and the rosy hue of health on her cheeks, she folded her thin hands over the pea-blossom, and thanked God for what He had done.

하지만 젊은 아가씨는 열린 다락방 창가에 서서, 반짝이는 눈과 건강의 홍조가 빛나는 뺨으로, 완두콩 꽃 위에 가냘픈 손을 모으고 하나님께서 이루신 일에 감사를 드렸습니다.

"I," said the sink, "shall stand up for my pea."

"나는," 하수구가 말했습니다, "내 완두콩을 지지할 거야."

THE PEN AND THE INKSTAND

펜과 잉크병

In a poet's room, where his inkstand stood on the table, the remark was once made, "It is wonderful what can be brought out of an inkstand.

한 시인의 방에서, 잉크병이 탁자 위에 놓여 있었는데, 한번은 이런 말이 나왔습니다. "잉크병에서 무엇이 나올 수 있는지 정말 놀랍습니다.

What will come next? It is indeed wonderful."

다음에는 무엇이 나올까요? 정말로 놀랍습니다."

"Yes, certainly," said the inkstand to the pen, and to the other articles that stood on the table; "that's what I always say.

"그렇고말고요," 잉크병이 펜과 탁자 위에 놓인 다른 물건들에게 말했습니다. "그건 내가 항상 하는 말이에요.

It is wonderful and extraordinary what a number of things come out of me.

나로부터 얼마나 많은 것들이 나오는지 정말 놀랍고 신기해요.

It's quite incredible, and I really don't know what is coming next when that man dips his pen into me.

정말 믿기 어려운 일이에요. 저 사람이 펜을 나 속에 담글 때 다음에 무엇이 나올지 저도 정말 모르겠어요.

One drop out of me is enough for half a page of paper, and what cannot half a page contain?

나로부터 나온 한 방울이면 종이 반 페이지를 채우기에 충분하고, 반 페이지가 담을 수 없는 것이 무엇이 있겠어요?

From me, all the works of a poet are produced; all those imaginary characters whom people fancy they have known or met.

나로부터 시인의 모든 작품이 탄생하고, 사람들이 알거나 만난 적이 있다고 생각하는 모든 상상 속의 인물들이 나옵니다.

All the deep feeling, the humor, and the vivid pictures of nature.

깊은 감정, 유머, 그리고 생생한 자연의 묘사 모두가요.
