'Well, I will try it, anyway,' replied the boy, and disappeared in the bushes.
'음, 어쨌든 한번 해볼게요.' 소년이 대답하고는 덤불 속으로 사라졌다.
He ran fast till he entered a wood through which the shepherd must go, and then he stopped, and taking off one of his shoes smeared it with mud and set it in the path.
그는 목자가 지나가야 하는 숲에 이르러서 멈춰 서서 신발 한 짝을 벗어 진흙을 바르고 길에 놓았습니다.
When this was done he slipped behind a rock and waited.
이 일이 끝나자 그는 바위 뒤로 숨어 기다렸다.
Very soon the man came up, and, seeing the shoe lying there, he stopped and looked at it.
곧 그 남자가 다가와서 거기에 놓인 신발을 보고 멈춰 서서 그것을 살펴보았습니다.
'It is a good shoe,' he said to himself, 'but very dirty.
'좋은 신발인데,' 그가 속으로 말했다. '너무 더럽군.'
Still, if I had the fellow, I would be at the trouble of cleaning it'; so he threw the shoe down again and went on.
그래도 만약 내가 그 사람을 잡았다면, 그 신발을 닦는 수고를 감수했을 것이다.' 그래서 그는 다시 신발을 내려놓고 계속 걸어갔다.
The Shifty Lad smiled as he heard him, and, picking up the shoe, he crept round by a short way and laid the other shoe on the path.
교활한 녀석은 그의 말을 듣고 미소를 지으며 신발을 집어 들고 조금 돌아서 다른 신발을 길 위에 놓았습니다.
A few minutes after the shepherd arrived, and beheld the second shoe lying on the path.
몇 분 후에 목자가 도착하여 길에 놓인 두 번째 신발을 보았습니다.
