Grimms’ Fairy Tales 030 – FREDERICK AND CATHERINE – 008

They were in truth great rascals, and belonged to that class of people who find things before they are lost; they were tired; so they sat down and made a fire under the very tree where Frederick and Catherine were.
Frederick slipped down on the other side, and picked up some stones.
Then he climbed up again, and tried to hit the thieves on the head with them: but they only said, ‘It must be near morning, for the wind shakes the fir-apples down.’

Catherine, who had the door on her shoulder, began to be very tired; but she thought it was the nuts upon it that were so heavy: so she said softly, ‘Frederick, I must let the nuts go.’ ‘No,’ answered he, ‘not now, they will discover us.’ ‘I can’t help that: they must go.’ ‘Well, then, make haste and throw them down, if you will.’ Then away rattled the nuts down among the boughs and one of the thieves cried, ‘Bless me, it is hailing.’

A little while after, Catherine thought the door was still very heavy: so she whispered to Frederick, ‘I must throw the vinegar down.’ ‘Pray don’t,’ answered he, ‘it will discover us.’ ‘I can’t help that,’ said she, ‘go it must.’ So she poured all the vinegar down; and the thieves said, ‘What a heavy dew there is!’

At last it popped into Catherine’s head that it was the door itself that was so heavy all the time: so she whispered, ‘Frederick, I must throw the door down soon.’ But he begged and prayed her not to do so, for he was sure it would betray them.
‘Here goes, however,’ said she: and down went the door with such a clatter upon the thieves, that they cried out ‘Murder!’ and not knowing what was coming, ran away as fast as they could, and left all the gold

   문을 어깨에 짊어진 Catherine은 매우 피곤해졌다. 그녀는 그것이 너무 무거운 견과류 때문이라고 생각했다. 그래서 그녀는 작게 말했다, “Frederick, 나는 이 견과류를 내려놓아야 해.”

   Then away rattled the nuts / down among the boughs / and one of the thieves cried, / ‘Bless me, / it is hailing.’

   “아니,” Frederick이 대답했다, “지금은 안 돼, 그들이 우리를 발견할 거야.” “어쩔 수 없어, 그것들은 내려가야 해.” “좋아, 그렇다면, 서둘러서 그것들을 던져 내려.” 그러고 나서 견과류들이 가지들 사이로 떨어졌고, 한 도둑이 외쳤다, “이럴 수가, 우박이 내리고 있어.”

   ‘I can’t help that,’ / said she, / ‘go it must.’ / So she poured all the vinegar down; / and the thieves said, / ‘What a heavy dew there is!’

   잠시 후, Catherine은 문이 여전히 매우 무겁다고 생각했다. 그래서 그녀는 Frederick에게 속삭였다, “나는 식초를 내려놓아야 해.” “제발 그러지 마,” 그가 대답했다, “그것이 우리를 발견하게 할 거야.” “어쩔 수 없어,” 그녀가 말했다, “내려가야 해.” 그래서 그녀는 모든 식초를 부었다; 도둑들은 말했다, “얼마나 무거운 이슬이 내리는 거야!”

   ‘Here goes, / however,’ / said she: / and down went the door / with such a clatter / upon the thieves, / that they cried out / ‘Murder!’ / and not knowing / what was coming, / ran away / as fast as they could, / and left all the gold

   결국 Catherine의 머릿속에 떠올랐다. 그것이 항상 무거운 것은 바로 문 자체라고 생각했다. 그래서 그녀는 속삭였다, “Frederick, 나는 곧 문을 내려놓아야 해.” 그러나 그가 간청하며 그녀에게 그렇게 하지 말라고 기도했다, 그는 그것이 그들을 배신할 것이라고 확신했다. “여기 간다, 하지만,” 그녀가 말했다. 문이 도둑들 위로 쿵 하고 떨어졌고, 그들이 외쳤다, “살려줘!” 무엇이 오는지 모른 채, 그들은 할 수 있는 한 빨리 도망갔다, 그리고 모든 금을 남겼다.
