Then he went to the king, and told him all his brothers' roguery; and they were seized and punished, and he had the princess given to him again; and after the king's death he was heir to his kingdom.

그런 다음 그는 왕에게 가서 형들의 모든 악행을 고했고, 형들은 붙잡혀 벌을 받았으며, 그는 공주를 다시 얻게 되었다. 그리고 왕이 죽은 후 그는 왕국의 후계자가 되었다.

A long while after, he went to walk one day in the wood, and the old fox met him, and besought him with tears in his eyes to kill him, and cut off his head and feet.

한참 후에, 어느 날 그가 숲속을 거닐러 갔는데, 늙은 여우가 그를 만나 눈물을 글썽이며 자신을 죽이고 머리와 발을 잘라달라고 간청했다.

And at last he did so, and in a moment the fox was changed into a man, and turned out to be the brother of the princess, who had been lost a great many many years.

마침내 그는 그렇게 했고, 순식간에 여우는 사람으로 변했는데, 그는 아주 오랜 세월 동안 사라졌던 공주의 오빠로 밝혀졌다.

HANS IN LUCK

행운아 한스

Some men are born to good luck: all they do or try to do comes right--all that falls to them is so much gain--all their geese are swans--all their cards are trumps--toss them which way you will, they will always, like poor puss, alight upon their legs, and only move on so much the faster.

어떤 사람들은 행운을 타고난다. 그들이 하는 일이나 하려는 일은 모두 잘 풀리고, 그들에게 돌아오는 것은 모두 이득이 되며, 그들의 거위는 모두 백조이고, 그들의 패는 모두 으뜸패이다. 어느 방향으로 던져도 그들은 언제나 불쌍한 고양이처럼 발로 사뿐히 착지하며, 더욱 빠르게 앞으로 나아갈 뿐이다.

The world may very likely not always think of them as they think of themselves, but what care they for the world? what can it know about the matter?

세상이 그들을 그들 스스로 생각하는 것처럼 항상 여기지는 않을 수도 있지만, 그들이 세상을 무슨 신경을 쓰겠는가? 세상이 그 일에 대해 무엇을 알 수 있겠는가?

One of these lucky beings was neighbour Hans.

이런 행운아 중 한 명이 바로 이웃 한스였다.

Seven long years he had worked hard for his master.

그는 주인을 위해 7년이라는 긴 세월 동안 열심히 일했다.

At last he said, 'Master, my time is up; I must go home and see my poor mother once more: so pray pay me my wages and let me go.

마침내 그는 말했다. '주인님, 제 기한이 다 되었습니다. 저는 집에 돌아가 불쌍한 어머니를 한 번 더 뵈어야 합니다. 그러니 제 품삯을 주시고 보내주십시오.
