The Adventures of Reddy Fox — Page 15
And if Farmer Brown's boy did guess that, why--why--anyway, on the other side of the tree there was a better place to drum.
그리고 만약 파머 브라운의 아들이 그것을 알아챘다 해도, 뭐--뭐--어쨌든, 나무의 반대편에는 두드리기에 더 좋은 곳이 있었습니다.
So Drummer the Woodpecker crept around to the other side of the tree and in a minute was drumming harder than ever.
그래서 딱따구리 드러머는 나무의 반대편으로 살금살금 돌아가서 곧 그 어느 때보다 더 세게 두드리기 시작했습니다.
Whenever he stopped for breath, he looked out over the Green Meadows to see if Reddy Fox had heard his warning.
숨을 돌리기 위해 멈출 때마다, 그는 레디 폭스가 자신의 경고를 들었는지 확인하려고 초록 초원 너머를 내다보았습니다.
But if Reddy had heard, he hadn't heeded.
하지만 레디가 들었다 해도, 그는 귀를 기울이지 않았습니다.
Just to show off before all the little meadow and forest people, Reddy had waited until Bowser the Hound had almost reached him.
작은 초원과 숲의 동물들 모두에게 과시하려고, 레디는 사냥개 바우저가 거의 자신에게 다가올 때까지 기다렸습니다.
Then, with a saucy flirt of his tail, Reddy Fox started to show how fast he could run, and that is very fast indeed.
그러고는, 꼬리를 건들거리며 경쾌하게 흔들어 보이더니, 레디 폭스는 자신이 얼마나 빨리 달릴 수 있는지 보여 주기 시작했는데, 정말이지 매우 빠른 속도였습니다.
It made Bowser the Hound seem very slow, as, with his nose to the ground, he came racing after Reddy, making a tremendous noise with his great voice.
코를 땅에 박고 레디를 뒤쫓아 달려오면서 우렁찬 목소리로 엄청난 소리를 내는 사냥개 바우저가 매우 느리게 보일 정도였습니다.
Now Reddy Fox had grown as careless as he had grown bold.
이제 레디 폭스는 대담해진 만큼이나 부주의해져 있었습니다.
Instead of looking sharply ahead, he looked this way and that way to see who was watching and admiring him.
앞을 날카롭게 살피는 대신, 그는 누가 자신을 보며 감탄하는지 확인하려고 이쪽저쪽을 두리번거렸습니다.
So he took no note of where he was going and started straight for the old tree trunk on which Drummer the Woodpecker was pounding out his warning of danger.
그래서 그는 자신이 어디로 가는지 전혀 신경 쓰지 않고, 딱따구리 드러머가 위험을 알리는 경고를 두드리고 있던 낡은 나무 기둥을 향해 곧장 달려가기 시작했습니다.
Now Reddy Fox has sharp eyes and very quick ears.
레디 폭스는 눈이 예리하고 귀도 매우 밝습니다.
My, my, indeed he has!
정말이지, 그렇고말고요!
But just now Reddy was as deaf as if he had cotton stuffed in his ears.
하지만 지금 이 순간만큼은 레디는 귀에 솜을 틀어막은 것처럼 아무것도 들리지 않았습니다.
