ONCE upon a time there was a very beautiful doll's-house; it was red brick with white windows, and it had real muslin curtains and a front door and a chimney.

ЖИЛ-БЫЛ однажды очень красивый кукольный домик; он был из красного кирпича с белыми окнами, и в нём были настоящие кисейные занавески, парадная дверь и труба.

IT belonged to two Dolls called Lucinda and Jane; at least it belonged to Lucinda, but she never ordered meals.

ОН принадлежал двум куклам по имени Люсинда и Джейн; во всяком случае, он принадлежал Люсинде, но она никогда не заказывала еду.

Jane was the Cook; but she never did any cooking, because the dinner had been bought ready-made, in a box full of shavings.

Джейн была Кухаркой; но она никогда ничего не готовила, потому что обед был куплен готовым, в коробке, полной стружки.

THERE were two red lobsters and a ham, a fish, a pudding, and some pears and oranges.

ТАМ были два красных омара и окорок, рыба, пудинг, а также груши и апельсины.

They would not come off the plates, but they were extremely beautiful.

Они не снимались с тарелок, но были чрезвычайно красивы.

ONE morning Lucinda and Jane had gone out for a drive in the doll's perambulator. There was no one in the nursery, and it was very quiet. Presently there was a little scuffling, scratching noise in a corner near the fire-place, where there was a hole under the skirting-board.

ОДНАЖДЫ утром Люсинда и Джейн уехали кататься в кукольной коляске. В детской никого не было, и было очень тихо. Вскоре в углу возле камина послышался лёгкий шорох и царапающий звук — там была дырка под плинтусом.

Tom Thumb put out his head for a moment, and then popped it in again.

Мальчик-с-пальчик высунул голову на мгновение, а затем снова спрятал её.

Tom Thumb was a mouse.

Мальчик-с-пальчик был мышью.
