Andersen's Fairy Tales, The leap-frog, part 2

The leap-frog, part 2

The Grasshopper jumped only half as high; but he leaped into the King's face, who said that was ill-mannered. The Leap-frog stood still for a long time lost in thought; it was believed at last he would not jump at all.

"I only hope he is not unwell," said the house-dog; when, pop! he made a jump all on one side into the lap of the Princess, who was sitting on a little golden stool close by.

Hereupon the King said, "There is nothing above my daughter; therefore to bound up to her is the highest jump that can be made; but for this, one must possess understanding, and the Leap-frog has shown that he has understanding. He is brave and intellectual." And so he won the Princess.

"It's all the same to me," said the Flea. "She may have the old Leap-frog, for all I care. I jumped the highest; but in this world merit seldom meets its reward. A fine exterior is what people look at now-a-days." The Flea then went into foreign service, where, it is said, he was killed.

The Grasshopper sat without on a green bank, and reflected on worldly things; and he said too, "Yes, a fine exterior is everything--a fine exterior is what people care about." And then he began chirping his peculiar melancholy song, from which we have taken this history; and which may, very possibly, be all untrue, although it does stand here printed in black and white.

The Grasshopper jumped only half as high; but he leaped into the King's face, who said that was ill-mannered. O Gafanhoto saltou apenas metade da altura; mas ele pulou na cara do rei, que disse que isso era mal-educado. The Leap-frog stood still for a long time lost in thought; it was believed at last he would not jump at all. O Sapo Saltitante ficou parado por um longo tempo perdido em pensamentos; acreditava-se finalmente que ele não pularia de jeito nenhum.

"I only hope he is not unwell," said the house-dog; when, pop! ||||||недобре|||||| "Só espero que ele não esteja doente", disse o cão doméstico; quando, pop! he made a jump all on one side into the lap of the Princess, who was sitting on a little golden stool close by. ele deu um pulo todo de lado no colo da princesa, que estava sentada em um banquinho dourado perto.

Hereupon the King said, "There is nothing above my daughter; therefore to bound up to her is the highest jump that can be made; but for this, one must possess understanding, and the Leap-frog has shown that he has understanding.

He is brave and intellectual." Ele é corajoso e intelectual." And so he won the Princess. E assim ele ganhou a princesa.

"It's all the same to me," said the Flea. "É tudo a mesma coisa para mim", disse a Pulga. "She may have the old Leap-frog, for all I care. "Ela pode ter o velho Leap-frog, por tudo que me importa.
