Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 1392
And the dogs fell upon the judges and all the councillors; seized one by the legs, and another by the nose, and tossed them many feet high in the air, so that they fell down and were dashed to pieces.
그리고 개들은 판사들과 모든 의원들에게 달려들어, 한 명은 다리를 물고, 다른 한 명은 코를 물고, 그들을 공중 높이 던져 올려서, 그들이 땅에 떨어져 산산조각이 나고 말았습니다.
"I will not be touched," said the king.
"나는 건드려지지 않을 것이다," 라고 왕이 말했습니다.
But the largest dog seized him, as well as the queen, and threw them after the others.
그러나 가장 큰 개가 왕과 왕비를 붙잡아, 다른 사람들 뒤로 던져 버렸습니다.
Then the soldiers and all the people were afraid, and cried, "Good soldier, you shall be our king, and you shall marry the beautiful princess."
그러자 병사들과 모든 백성들이 두려워하며 외쳤습니다, "훌륭한 병사여, 당신이 우리의 왕이 되시고, 아름다운 공주와 결혼하십시오."
So they placed the soldier in the king's carriage, and the three dogs ran on in front and cried "Hurrah!" and the little boys whistled through their fingers, and the soldiers presented arms.
그리하여 그들은 병사를 왕의 마차에 태웠고, 세 마리의 개들은 앞에서 달리며 "만세!"를 외쳤으며, 어린 소년들은 손가락 사이로 휘파람을 불었고, 병사들은 경례를 올렸습니다.
The princess came out of the copper castle, and became queen, which was very pleasing to her.
공주는 구리 성에서 나와 왕비가 되었는데, 이것은 그녀에게 매우 기쁜 일이었습니다.
The wedding festivities lasted a whole week, and the dogs sat at the table, and stared with all their eyes.
결혼 축제는 꼬박 일주일 동안 계속되었고, 개들은 식탁에 앉아 눈을 크게 뜨고 바라보았습니다.
THE TOAD
두꺼비
The well was deep, and therefore the rope had to be a long one; it was heavy work turning the handle when any one had to raise a bucketful of water over the edge of the well.
우물은 깊었고, 그래서 밧줄도 길어야만 했습니다. 누군가 물 한 양동이를 우물 가장자리 위로 끌어 올릴 때 손잡이를 돌리는 것은 힘든 일이었습니다.
Though the water was clear, the sun never looked down far enough into the well to mirror itself in the waters; but as far as its beams could reach, green things grew forth between the stones in the sides of the well.
물은 맑았지만, 태양은 우물 속 물에 자신의 모습을 비출 만큼 깊이 들여다볼 수 없었습니다. 그러나 햇빛이 닿을 수 있는 곳까지, 우물 벽의 돌들 사이에서 푸른 식물들이 자라났습니다.
