Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 1228
The most lovely landscapes appeared like boiled spinach, and the people became hideous, and looked as if they stood on their heads and had no bodies.
가장 아름다운 풍경도 삶은 시금치처럼 보였고, 사람들은 흉측해졌으며, 마치 머리로 서 있고 몸통은 없는 것처럼 보였습니다.
Their countenances were so distorted that no one could recognize them, and even one freckle on the face appeared to spread over the whole of the nose and mouth.
그들의 얼굴은 너무나 일그러져서 아무도 알아볼 수 없었고, 얼굴의 주근깨 하나조차도 코와 입 전체로 번진 것처럼 보였습니다.
The demon said this was very amusing.
악마는 이것이 매우 재미있다고 말했습니다.
When a good or pious thought passed through the mind of any one it was misrepresented in the glass; and then how the demon laughed at his cunning invention.
누군가의 마음속에 선하거나 경건한 생각이 떠오를 때마다 그것은 거울 속에서 왜곡되었고, 그럴 때마다 악마는 자신의 교활한 발명품을 보며 웃음을 터뜨렸습니다.
All who went to the demon's school--for he kept a school--talked everywhere of the wonders they had seen, and declared that people could now, for the first time, see what the world and mankind were really like.
악마의 학교에 다닌 모든 이들은—그는 학교를 운영하고 있었습니다—자신들이 본 놀라운 것들에 대해 어디서나 이야기하며, 사람들이 이제 처음으로 세상과 인류의 진정한 모습을 볼 수 있게 되었다고 선언했습니다.
They carried the glass about everywhere, till at last there was not a land nor a people who had not been looked at through this distorted mirror.
그들은 거울을 들고 사방을 돌아다녔고, 마침내 이 일그러진 거울을 통해 들여다보지 않은 나라도, 민족도 없게 되었습니다.
They wanted even to fly with it up to heaven to see the angels, but the higher they flew the more slippery the glass became, and they could scarcely hold it, till at last it slipped from their hands, fell to the earth, and was broken into millions of pieces.
그들은 심지어 거울을 들고 하늘로 날아올라 천사들을 보려 했지만, 높이 날수록 거울은 더욱 미끄러워졌고, 간신히 붙잡고 있다가 마침내 손에서 미끄러져 땅으로 떨어져 수백만 조각으로 산산조각이 나고 말았습니다.
But now the looking-glass caused more unhappiness than ever, for some of the fragments were not so large as a grain of sand, and they flew about the world into every country.
하지만 이제 거울은 그 어느 때보다 더 많은 불행을 불러일으켰으니, 파편 중 일부는 모래알보다도 작았고, 그것들은 세계 곳곳으로 날아다녔습니다.
