Opening the reader…
어느 방앗간 주인이 세 아들에게 남긴 유산이라곤 방앗간과 당나귀, 그리고 고양이뿐이었다. 재산 분할은 금세 끝났다. 대서소 서기나 공증인을 부를 필요도 없었다. 그들을 불렀다간 그 얼마 안 되는 유산마저 순식간에 다 먹어 치웠을 터였다.
There was a miller, who left no more estate to the three sons he had, than his Mill, his Ass, and his Cat. The partition was soon made. Neither the scrivener nor attorney were sent for. They would soon have eaten up all the poor patrimony.
첫째는 방앗간을, 둘째는 당나귀를 차지했고, 막내에게는 고양이밖에 남지 않았다.
The eldest had the Mill, the second the Ass, and the youngest nothing but the Cat.
가련한 젊은이는 너무나 초라한 몫을 받고서 몹시 낙담하였다.
The poor young fellow was quite comfortless at having so poor a lot.
“형들은,” 하고 그가 말하였다. “서로 가진 것을 합치면 번듯하게 살아갈 수 있겠지만, 나는 이 고양이를 잡아먹고 그 가죽으로 토시를 하나 만들어 쓰고 나면 굶어 죽을 수밖에 없겠구나.”
“My brothers,” said he, “may get their living handsomely enough, by joining their stocks together; but for my part, when I have eaten up my Cat, and made me a muff of his skin, I must die with hunger.”
이 말을 다 듣고도 못 들은 체하던 고양이가 근엄하고 진지한 태도로 그에게 말하였다.
The Cat, who heard all this, but made as if he did not, said to him with a grave and serious air:
“선생님, 그렇게 괴로워하지 마십시오. 제게 자루 하나를 주시고, 진흙탕과 가시덤불을 뛰어다닐 수 있도록 장화 한 켤레를 맞춰 주시기만 하면 됩니다. 그러면 저를 얻으신 것이 생각만큼 그리 나쁜 몫은 아니었음을 알게 되실 것입니다.”
“Do not thus afflict yourself, my good master; you have only to give me a bag, and get a pair of boots made for me, that I may scamper thro’ the dirt and the brambles, and you shall see that you have not so bad a portion of me as you imagine.”
고양이의 주인은 그 말에 큰 기대를 걸지는 않았으나, 쥐를 잡을 때 녀석이 부리던 온갖 교묘한 꾀를 자주 보아 온 터였다. 발을 걸고 거꾸로 매달린다거나, 밀가루 속에 숨어 죽은 척하는 모습 따위를 보았기에, 이 비참한 처지에 녀석이 얼마간 도움을 줄지도 모른다는 희망을 완전히 버리지는 않았다.
Tho’ the Cat’s master did not build very much upon what he said, he had however often seen him play a great many cunning tricks to catch rats and mice; as when he used to hang by the heels, or hide himself in the meal, and make as if he were dead; so that he did not altogether despair of his affording him some help in his miserable condition.
원하던 것을 얻자 고양이는 늠름하게 장화를 신었다. 그리고 자루를 목에 걸고 두 앞발로 끈을 쥔 뒤, 토끼가 우글거리는 사육장으로 갔다.
When the Cat had what he asked for, he booted himself very gallantly; and putting his bag about his neck, he held the strings of it in his two fore paws, and went into a warren where was great abundance of rabbits.
고양이는 자루 속에 밀기울과 방가지똥을 넣고는, 마치 죽은 것처럼 몸을 길게 뻗은 채 아직 세상 물정을 모르는 어린 토끼가 자루 속 내용물을 뒤지러 들어오기를 기다렸다.
He put bran and sow-thistle into his bag, and stretching himself out at length, as if he had been dead, he waited for some young rabbit, not yet acquainted with the deceits of the world, to come and rummage his bag for what he had put into it.
고양이가 눕기가 무섭게 일이 뜻대로 풀렸다. 철없고 어리석은 어린 토끼 한 마리가 자루 속으로 뛰어들었고, 고양이 선생은 즉시 끈을 잡아당겨 망설임 없이 토끼를 잡아 죽였다.
Scarce was he lain down, but he had what he wanted; a rash and foolish young rabbit jumped into his bag, and Monsieur Puss, immediately drawing close the strings, took and killed him without pity.
사냥감에 으쓱해진 고양이는 그것을 들고 궁궐로 가 왕을 뵙기를 청하였다. 고양이는 계단을 올라 국왕의 처소로 안내되었고, 정중히 허리를 굽혀 절하며 왕에게 아뢰었다.
Proud of his prey, he went with it to the palace, and asked to speak with his Majesty. He was shewed up stairs into the King’s apartment, and, making a low reverence, said to him:
“전하, 저의 고귀하신 주인이신 카라바 후작님께서 전하께 바치라 명하신 굴토끼 한 마리를 가져왔습니다.” (카라바 후작은 고양이가 제 주인을 부르기 좋아했던 칭호였다.)
“I have brought you, sir, a rabbit of the warren which my noble lord the Marquis of Carabas” (for that was the title which Puss was pleased to give his master) “has commanded me to present to your Majesty from him.”
“네 주인에게 전하거라,” 왕이 말하였다. “내 매우 고맙게 여기며, 참으로 기쁘게 받았다고 말이다.”
“Tell thy master,” said the King, “that I thank him, and that he does me a great deal of pleasure.”
또 다른 날에는 고양이가 곡식이 서 있는 밭에 들어가 자루를 열어 둔 채 숨어 있었다. 그리고 자벌레 두 마리가 그 안으로 뛰어들자 끈을 잡아당겨 둘 다 잡았다.
Another time he went and hid himself among some standing corn, holding still his bag open; and when a brace of partridges ran into it, he drew the strings, and so caught them both.
