The Three Daughters of King O'Hara (5/17)
@english_frankТри дочери короля О’Хара
The youngest daughter comforted him (младшая дочь успокоила его). "There is no danger to you (для тебя нет никакой опасности)," said she, "for wherever I am (так как, где бы я ни была), you'll be (ты будешь /тоже там/), and wherever you go (и куда бы ты ни пошел), I'll follow (я последую /за тобой/) and take care of you (и позабочусь: «возьму заботу» о тебе)."

When all was ready for the feast at the castle (когда все было готово для пира в замке), and the company were assembled (и гости собрались: «были собраны»; company — общество, компания; гости, общество; to assemble — созывать; собираться), the king was for banishing the white dog (король был за то, чтобы выгнать белого пса: «за изгнание белого пса»; to banish — изгонять, подвергать изгнанию; прогонять, выгонять, выдворять); but the youngest daughter would not listen to her father (но младшая дочь и слышать не хотела своего отца), — would not let the white dog out of her sight (не хотела выпускать белого пса из виду; to let /let/ — позволять; пускать; выпускать; sight — зрение; поле зрения, предел видимости), but kept him near her at the feast (но держала его рядом с собой на пиру; to keep /kept/), and divided with him the food (и разделяла с ним еду) that came to herself (которая подавалась ей самой; to come /came, come/ — приходить, идти; доставаться).

When the feast was over (когда пир закончился: «был окончен»), and all the guests had gone (и все гости ушли; to go /went, gone/), the three sisters went to their own rooms in the castle (три сестры пошли в свои собственные комнаты в замке).

Late in the evening (поздно вечером) the queen took the cook with her (королева взяла с собой кухарку; to take /took, taken/), and stole in to see what was in her daughters' rooms (и крадучись пошла посмотреть, что было в комнатах ее дочерей; to steal /stole, stolen/ — воровать, красть; красться, прокрадываться, скользнуть /куда-л./). They were all asleep at the time (они все спали: «были спящими» в это время). What should she see by the side of her youngest daughter (и кого же она увидела рядом со своей младшей дочерью; side — сторона, бок; место рядом; by the side of smb. — рядом с кем-л.) but the most beautiful man (как не самого красивого мужчину) she had ever laid eyes on (которого она когда-либо видела: «на которого она когда-либо положила глаза»; to lay /laid/).
