And the Thistle thought so long of the thistle of Scotland, to whose family he said he belonged, that he fancied at last that he had come from Scotland, and that his parents had been put into the national escutcheon.

그리고 엉겅퀴는 자신이 속해 있다고 말했던 스코틀랜드의 엉겅퀴 가문에 대해 너무나 오래 생각한 나머지, 마침내 자신이 스코틀랜드에서 왔으며 자신의 부모가 국가 문장에 새겨졌다고 상상하게 되었다.

That was a great thought; but, you see, a great thistle has a right to a great thought.

그것은 대단한 생각이었다. 하지만 보다시피, 위대한 엉겅퀴는 위대한 생각을 가질 권리가 있다.

"One is often of so grand a family, that one may not know it," said the Nettle, who grew close by.

"사람은 종종 너무나 훌륭한 가문 출신이어서, 그 사실을 알지 못할 수도 있지요," 바로 옆에서 자라고 있던 쐐기풀이 말했다.

He had a kind of idea that he might be made into cambric if he were rightly treated.

그는 자신이 제대로 대우받는다면 캄브릭 천으로 만들어질 수도 있다는 생각을 어렴풋이 품고 있었다.

And the summer went by, and the autumn went by.

그렇게 여름이 지나갔고, 가을도 지나갔다.

The leaves fell from the trees, and the few flowers left had deeper colors and less scent.

나뭇잎들이 나무에서 떨어졌고, 남아 있는 얼마 안 되는 꽃들은 더 짙은 색깔을 띠었지만 향기는 줄어들었다.

The gardener's boy sang in the garden, across the palings:

정원사의 소년이 울타리 너머로 정원에서 노래를 불렀다.

"Up the hill, down the dale we wend, That is life, from beginning to end."

"언덕을 오르고, 골짜기를 내려가며 우리는 나아가네, 그것이 바로 삶이라네, 처음부터 끝까지."

The young fir trees in the forest began to long for Christmas, but it was a long time to Christmas yet.

숲속의 어린 전나무들은 크리스마스를 그리워하기 시작했지만, 크리스마스까지는 아직 한참 남아 있었다.

"Here I am standing yet!" said the Thistle.

"나는 아직도 여기 서 있구나!" 엉겅퀴가 말했다.

"It is as if nobody thought of me, and yet I managed the match.

"마치 아무도 나를 생각하지 않는 것 같지만, 그래도 나는 그 결혼을 성사시켰지.

They were betrothed, and they have had their wedding; it is now a week ago.

그들은 약혼을 했고, 결혼식도 올렸지. 이제 일주일이 지났어.

I won't take a single step-because I can't."

나는 한 발짝도 움직이지 않을 거야—사실 움직일 수가 없으니까."

A few more weeks went by.

몇 주가 더 지나갔다.

The Thistle stood there with his last single flower large and full.

엉겅퀴는 마지막 남은 하나의 꽃을 크고 탐스럽게 피운 채 그 자리에 서 있었다.
