Полный горшок аппетитного меда

Запропастился неясно куда.

Шутит недобро над Мишкой природа,

Ведь мне без меда совсем никуда[27].

label [leIbl], goluptious [gq'lApSqs], 'cos [kOz]

It's very, very funny,

'Cos I know I had some honey:

'Cos it had a label on,

Saying HUNNY,

A goloptious full-up pot too,

And I don't know where it's got to,

No, I don't know where it's gone—

Well, it's funny.

He had murmured this to himself three times in a singing sort of way (он проворчал это себе три раза в виде песенки), when suddenly he remembered (когда вдруг он вспомнил). He had put it into the Cunning Trap to catch the Heffalump (он положил ее в Хитроумную Западню для ловли Слонопотама).

“Bother!” said Pooh (Ай-ай-ай! — сказал Пух). “It all comes of trying to be kind to Heffalumps (это все происходит оттого, что пытаешься быть добрым со Слонопотамами).” And he got back into bed (и он вернулся в кровать).

this [DIs], three [TrJ], suddenly ['sAdnlI]

He had murmured this to himself three times in a singing sort of way, when suddenly he remembered. He had put it into the Cunning Trap to catch the Heffalump.

“Bother!” said Pooh. “It all comes of trying to be kind to Heffalumps.” And he got back into bed.

But he couldn't sleep (но он не мог спать). The more he tried to sleep (чем больше он пытался заснуть), the more he couldn't (тем больше /он/ не мог). He tried Counting Sheep (он пробовал Считать Овец), which is sometimes a good way of getting to sleep (что иногда бывает хорошим способом заснуть), and, as that was no good (и когда это не помогло), he tried counting Heffalumps (он попробовал считать Слонопотамов). And that was worse (а это было еще хуже). Because every Heffalump that he counted (потому что каждый Слонопотам, которого он сосчитал) was making straight for a pot of Pooh's honey (направлялся прямиком к горшку Пухового меда), and eating it all (и съедал его весь = целиком). For some minutes he lay there miserably (несколько минут он лежал там несчастно), but when the five hundred and eighty-seventh Heffalump was licking its jaws (но когда 587-й Слонопотам облизывал свою пасть), and saying to itself (и говорил себе), “Very good honey this, I don't know when I've tasted better (это очень хороший мед, я не знаю, когда я пробовал лучше)” Pooh could bear it no longer (Пух больше не смог вынести этого). He jumped out of bed (он выскочил из кровати), he ran out of the house (он выбежал из дома; to run — бежать), and he ran straight to the Six Pine Trees (и /он/ побежал прямиком к Шести Соснам).

For some minutes he lay there miserably, but when the five hundred and eighty-seventh Heffalump was licking its jaws, and saying to itself, “Very good honey this, I don't know when I've tasted better,” Pooh could bear it no longer. He jumped out of bed, he ran out of the house, and he ran straight to the Six Pine Trees.

The Sun was still in bed (Солнце все еще было в постели), but there was a lightness in the sky over the Hundred Acre Wood (но в небе над Сто-Акровым Лесом был светлый оттенок), which seemed to show that it was waking up (который, казалось, показывал, что оно просыпается) and would soon be kicking off the clothes (и скоро сбросит постельное белье = выберется из-под постельного белья). In the half-light the Pine Trees looked cold and lonely (в полусвете Сосны казались холодными и одинокими), and the Very Deep Pit seemed deeper than it was (а Очень Глубокая Яма казалась глубже, чем она была), and Pooh's jar of honey at the bottom was something mysterious, a shape and no more (а Пухова банка меда на дне была чем-то таинственным, /неясным/ очертанием и ничем более). But as he got nearer to it his nose told him that it was indeed honey (но когда он подобрался ближе к ней, его нос сказал ему, что это был в самом деле мед), and his tongue came out and began to polish up his mouth, ready for it (а его язык высунулся и начал шлифовать его рот, готовый к этому).

The Sun was still in bed, but there was a lightness in the sky over the Hundred Acre Wood which seemed to show that it was waking up and would soon be kicking off the clothes. In the half-light the Pine Trees looked cold and lonely, and the Very Deep Pit seemed deeper than it was, and Pooh's jar of honey at the bottom was something mysterious, a shape and no more. But as he got nearer to it his nose told him that it was indeed honey, and his tongue came out and began to polish up his mouth, ready for it.

“Bother!” said Pooh, as he got his nose inside the jar (Ах-ты! — сказал Пух, когда он засунул свой нос внутрь банки). “A Heffalump has been eating it (Слонопотам ел его)!” And then he thought a little and said (а потом он немного подумал и сказал), “Oh, no, I did (ах, нет, это я). I forgot (я забыл; to forget — забыть).”

Indeed, he had eaten most of it (в самом деле, он съел большую часть /его/). But there was a little left at the very bottom of the jar (но немножко осталось на самом донышке банки), and he pushed his head right in, and began to lick (и он засунул /свою/ голову целиком вовнутрь и начал лизать; to begin — начать)....

bother ['bODq], eaten [Jtn], bottom ['bOtqm]

“Bother!” said Pooh, as he got his nose inside the jar. “A Heffalump has been eating it!” And then he thought a little and said, “Oh, no, I did. I forgot.”

Indeed, he had eaten most of it. But there was a little left at the very bottom of the jar, and he pushed his head right in, and began to lick....

By and by Piglet woke up (вскоре проснулся Пятачок). As soon as he woke he said to himself, “Oh (как только он проснулся, он сказал себе: ой)!” Then he said bravely, “Yes (потом он сказал смело: да),” and then, still more bravely, “Quite so (а потом, еще смелее: несомненно: «вполне так»).” But he didn't feel very brave (но он не ощутил себя очень смелым), for the word which was really jiggeting about in his brain was “Heffalumps (так как словом, которое скакало у него в мозгах, было Слонопотамы; to jigget — двигаться толчками, ерзать, подпрыгивать).”

bravely ['breIvlI], jigget ['GIgIt], word [wWd]

By and by Piglet woke up. As soon as he woke he said to himself, “Oh!” Then he said bravely, “Yes,” and then, still more bravely, “Quite so.” But he didn't feel very brave, for the word which was really jiggeting about in his brain was “Heffalumps.”

What was a Heffalump like (каким был Слонопотам)?

Was it Fierce (он был Свирепый)?

Did it come when you whistled (шел ли он на свист)? And how did it come (и как он шел / как это происходило)?

Was it Fond of Pigs at all (он Любил Свиней вообще)?

If it was Fond of Pigs, did it make any difference what sort of Pig (если он Любил Свиней, делал ли он различие в зависимости от того, какая это Свинья: «делал он какую-нибудь разницу какого сорта свинья»)?

Supposing it was Fierce with Pigs (если он был Свиреп со Свиньями), would it make any difference (была ли /для него/ какая-нибудь разница) if the Pig had a grandfather called TRESPASSERS WILLIAM (если у Свиньи был дедушка, называемый = которого звали ПОСТОРОННИМ ВИЛЬЯМ)?

He didn't know the answer to any of these questions (он не знал ответа /ни/ на один из этих вопросов)... and he was going to see his first Heffalump in about an hour from now (а он собирался = ему предстояло увидеть своего первого Слонопотама приблизительно через час /от сейчас/)!

Of course Pooh would be with him (конечно, Пух будет с ним), and it was much more Friendly with two (а он гораздо Дружелюбнее с двумя). But suppose Heffalumps were Very Fierce with Pigs and Bears (но если Слонопотамы Очень Свирепы со Свиньями и Медведями)?

Wouldn't it be better to pretend that he had a headache (не лучше ли было бы притвориться, что у него болит голова: «он имеет головную боль»), and couldn't go up to the Six Pine Trees this morning (и /он/ не может пойти к Шести Соснам этим утром = сегодня утром)? But then suppose that it was a very fine day (но /тогда/ предположим, что сегодня будет очень хороший день), and there was no Heffalump in the trap (а в западне нет Слонопотама), here he would be, in bed all the morning, simply wasting his time for nothing (а он будет /валяться/ здесь в постели все утро, просто зря теряя свое время; for nothing — зря, без пользы, даром, из-за пустяка). What should he do (что же делать: «что следует ему делать»)?

He didn't know the answer to any of these questions... and he was going to see his first Heffalump in about an hour from now!

Of course Pooh would be with him, and it was much more Friendly with two. But suppose Heffalumps were Very Fierce with Pigs and Bears?

Wouldn't it be better to pretend that he had a headache, and couldn't go up to the Six Pine Trees this morning? But then suppose that it was a very fine day, and there was no Heffalump in the trap, here he would be, in bed all the morning, simply wasting his time for nothing. What should he do?

And then he had a Clever Idea (и тогда ему пришла в голову Умная Мысль). He would go up very quietly to the Six Pine Trees now (он сейчас пойдет очень тихо к Шести Соснам), peep very cautiously into the Trap (заглянет очень осторожно в Западню), and see if there was a Heffalump there (и увидит, есть ли там Слонопотам). And if there was, he would go back to bed (и если есть, он вернется в постель), and if there wasn't, he wouldn't (а если нет, /то/ он не станет /ложиться/).

So off he went (и он отправился). At first he thought that there wouldn't be a Heffalump in the Trap (сначала он думал, что в Западне не будет Слонопотама), and then he thought that there would (а потом он думал, что будет), and as he got nearer he was sure that there would (и когда он приблизился, он был уверен, что будет), because he could hear it heffalumping about it like anything (потому что он мог слышать = слышал, как он ужасно потамослоняется по ней).

“Oh, dear, oh, dear, oh, dear (о, батюшки, о, батюшки, о, батюшки[28])!” said Piglet to himself (сказал себе Пятачок). And he wanted to run away (и он хотел убежать). But somehow, having got so near (но почему-то подойдя так близко; to get near — приблизиться; to get — добираться), he felt that he must just see what a Heffalump was like (он почувствовал, что он просто должен увидеть, какой Слонопотам = как выглядит Слонопотам). So he crept to the side of the Trap and looked in (поэтому он подкрался к боку Западни = сбоку к Западне и заглянул в /нее/).
