The Princess and the Pea

《豌豆公主》

Chapter 1. The Peaky Prince Once upon a time, there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess. But he didn't want to just any old princess. He wanted a real one. This is Princess Cordella, your highness.

第一章 挑剔的王子 从前，有一位王子想要娶一位公主。 但他不要随便什么普通的公主，他要一位真正的公主。 殿下，这位是科德拉公主。

Not one of the local princes would do. What is the matter with them, Patrick? cried his father, the king. I am running out of princes to show you. Are they too old? Too tall? Too hairy? I can't be sure they are real, sighed Prince Patrick. I'll have to find one for myself. You must do whatever you want, darling, said the queen, who spoiled him rotten. Nothing but the best for my prince, Winsy. Mother!

当地的公主没一个合他心意的。 "帕特里克，她们到底哪里不好？"他的父亲国王大喊道。 我都快没有公主可以介绍给你了。 她们是太老？太高？还是毛发太旺盛？ "我没法确定她们是不是真的公主。"帕特里克王子叹气道。 我得自己去找一个。 "亲爱的，你想做什么都可以。"把他宠得没边的王后说道。 我的宝贝王子值得最好的一切。 妈妈！

The next day, Prince Patrick set out to travel the world in search of a real princess. Ready, Freddy? I think my arm's stuck. I'm bringing away a tear with her silk handkerchief. Don't forget to wear a warm! And brush your teeth! I'll be fine. Stop fussing!

第二天，帕特里克王子出发周游世界，寻找真正的公主。 准备好了吗，弗雷迪？我的胳膊好像卡住了。 我正用她的丝手帕擦眼泪呢。 别忘了穿暖和点！ 还有要好好刷牙哦！ 我没事的，别瞎操心啦！

They hadn't gone far when they heard a loud sneeze from under the seat. Who's there? shouted the prince. A small figure crept out. It's Pag! Are you the palace maid? said the prince patrick. Pag nodded. Well, what are you doing here? The prince asked. I want to see the world! said Pag. I've been at the palace all my life ever since I was left on the doorstep as a baby. I want an adventure! she blushed and cooked furious because I burned the pudding! she added.

他们没走多远，就听见座位底下传来好大一声喷嚏。 谁在那里？ 王子大喊道。 一个小小的身影爬了出来。 是帕格！ "你是宫里的女仆对吗？"帕特里克王子问道。 帕格点了点头。 哦，那你在这里做什么？ 王子问道。 "我想看看这个世界！"帕格说。 我还是个小婴儿的时候被人丢在王宫门口，之后就一直待在宫里。 "我想去冒险！"她红了红脸，又气鼓鼓地补充道："还因为我把布丁烤糊了！"

Well, you can't come with us said Fred. This is a boys only adventure You get scared and want to go home No, I want I am as brave as you We are not turning back now Said Prince Patrick Sure have to join us Pack greened at Fred Okay, Prince Patrick went on first stop the wicked witch's hut Fred look alarmed You are joking She will eat us alive Who's scared now? Prince Patrick Shockers had the witch will know how to find a real princess She's my best hope

"不行，你不能跟我们一起去。"弗雷德说，"这是男孩子专属的冒险。" 你会吓得想要回家的。 才不会，我和你一样勇敢。 我们现在不会掉头回去的。 帕特里克王子说道。 你当然可以加入我们。 帕格对着弗雷德咧嘴笑了。 "好啦，"帕特里克王子接着说，"第一站是邪恶女巫的小屋。" 弗雷德吓得脸色都变了。 你在开玩笑吧。 她会把我们活活吃掉的。 现在是谁害怕啦？ 帕特里克王子反问。 他哼了一声。 女巫肯定知道怎么找到真正的 公主。 她是我最大的希望。
