Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 1431
In the middle of the floor stood a throne supported by four skeleton horses, whose harness had been made by fiery-red spiders.
바닥 한가운데에는 네 마리의 해골 말이 받치고 있는 왕좌가 서 있었는데, 그 마구는 불같이 빨간 거미들이 만든 것이었다.
The throne itself was made of milk-white glass, and the cushions were little black mice, each biting the other's tail.
왕좌 자체는 유백색 유리로 만들어졌고, 방석은 서로의 꼬리를 물고 있는 작은 검은 쥐들이었다.
Over it hung a canopy of rose-colored spider's webs, spotted with the prettiest little green flies, which sparkled like precious stones.
그 위에는 장밋빛 거미줄로 만든 닫집이 드리워져 있었으며, 보석처럼 반짝이는 아주 예쁜 작은 녹색 파리들이 점점이 박혀 있었다.
On the throne sat an old magician with a crown on his ugly head, and a sceptre in his hand.
왕좌에는 못생긴 머리에 왕관을 쓰고 손에 홀을 든 늙은 마법사가 앉아 있었다.
He kissed the princess on the forehead, seated her by his side on the splendid throne, and then the music commenced.
그는 공주의 이마에 입을 맞추고, 그녀를 화려한 왕좌의 자기 옆에 앉힌 다음, 음악이 시작되었다.
Great black grasshoppers played the mouth organ, and the owl struck herself on the body instead of a drum.
커다란 검은 메뚜기들이 하모니카를 연주했고, 올빼미는 북 대신 자기 몸을 두드렸다.
It was altogether a ridiculous concert.
그것은 전체적으로 우스꽝스러운 연주회였다.
Little black goblins with false lights in their caps danced about the hall; but no one could see the traveller, and he had placed himself just behind the throne where he could see and hear everything.
모자에 가짜 불빛을 단 작은 검은 도깨비들이 홀 안을 돌아다니며 춤을 추었지만, 아무도 여행자를 볼 수 없었고, 그는 모든 것을 보고 들을 수 있는 왕좌 바로 뒤에 자리를 잡고 있었다.
The courtiers who came in afterwards looked noble and grand; but any one with common sense could see what they really were, only broomsticks, with cabbages for heads.
나중에 들어온 신하들은 고귀하고 위엄 있어 보였지만, 상식이 있는 사람이라면 누구든 그들의 정체를 알 수 있었으니, 그것은 그저 머리 대신 양배추를 얹은 빗자루에 불과했다.
The magician had given them life, and dressed them in embroidered robes.
마법사는 그것들에게 생명을 불어넣고 수놓은 옷을 입혀 놓았던 것이다.
It answered very well, as they were only wanted for show.
그것들은 오직 보여주기 위한 것이었으므로 그것으로 충분했다.
