“Christopher Robin and I are going for a Short Walk,” he said, “not a Jostle. If he likes to bring Pooh and Piglet with him, I shall be glad of their company, but one must be able to Breathe.”

“That’s all right,” said Rabbit, rather glad to be left in charge of something. “We’ll go on getting the things out. Now then, Tigger, where’s that rope? What’s the matter, Owl?”

Owl, who had just discovered that his new address was THE SMEAR (Филин, который только что обнаружил, что его новый адрес стал МАЗНЕЙ), coughed at Eeyore sternly (сурово кашлянул в сторону Иа), but said nothing (но ничего /не/ сказал), and Eeyore, with most of THE WOLERY behind him (и Иа с большей частью ХВИЛЕНИЩА позади /него/), marched off with his friends (ушел со своими друзьями).

So, in a little while, they came to the house (и вскоре они пришли к дому) which Eeyore had found (который нашел Иа), and just before they came to it (и как раз перед тем как они подошли к нему), Piglet was nudging Pooh (Пятачок толкал = начал толкать Пуха), and Pooh was nudging Piglet (а Пух начал толкать Пятачка), and they were saying (и они говорили), “It is!” and “It can’t be (это он! и не может быть)!” and “It is, really!” to each other (и это он, действительно! — друг другу). And when they got there, it really was (и когда они добрались туда = до места, это действительно был он).

Owl, who had just discovered that his new address was THE SMEAR, coughed at Eeyore sternly, but said nothing, and Eeyore, with most of THE WOLERY behind him, marched off with his friends.

So, in a little while, they came to the house which Eeyore had found, and just before they came to it, Piglet was nudging Pooh, and Pooh was nudging Piglet, and they were saying, “It is!” and “It can’t be!” and “It is, really!” to each other. And when they got there, it really was.

“There!” said Eeyore proudly (вот! — сказал гордо Иа), stopping them outside Piglet’s house (останавливая их снаружи = перед домом Пятачка). “And the name on it, and everything (и название на нем, и все /остальное/)!”

"Oh!" cried Christopher Robin (ах! — воскликнул Кристофер Робин), wondering whether to laugh or what (спрашивая себя = не зная, то ли смеяться или что = то ли плакать).

"Just the house for Owl (как раз дом для Филина). Don't you think so, little Piglet (ты так не считаешь, маленький Пятачок)?"

And then Piglet did a Noble Thing (и тогда Пятачок совершил Благородный Поступок), and he did it in a sort of dream (и он совершил его словно во сне), while he was thinking of all the wonderful words Pooh had hummed about him (когда /он/ вспоминал = вспоминая все замечательные слова, которые спел о нем Пух).

"Oh!" cried Christopher Robin, wondering whether to laugh or what.

"Just the house for Owl. Don't you think so, little Piglet?"

And then Piglet did a Noble Thing, and he did it in a sort of dream, while he was thinking of all the wonderful words Pooh had hummed about him.

"Yes, it's just the house for Owl (да, это как раз дом для Филина)," he said grandly (сказал он благородно). "And I hope he'll be very happy in it (и /я/ надеюсь, он будет счастлив в нем)." And then he gulped twice (а затем он сглотнул дважды), because he had been very happy in it himself (потому что он сам был в нем очень счастлив).

"What do you think, Christopher Robin (что ты думаешь, Кристофер Робин)?" asked Eeyore a little anxiously (спросил Иа немного тревожно), feeling that something wasn't quite right (чувствуя, что что-то не совсем так).

Christopher Robin had a question to ask first (у Кристофера Робина был вопрос, который он хотел задать сначала), and he was wondering how to ask it (и он спрашивал себя, как ему его задать).

"Yes, it's just the house for Owl," he said grandly. "And I hope he'll be very happy in it." And then he gulped twice, because he had been very happy in it himself.

"What do you think, Christopher Robin?" asked Eeyore a little anxiously, feeling that something wasn't quite right.

Christopher Robin had a question to ask first, and he was wondering how to ask it.

"Well," he said at last (ну, — сказал он наконец), "it's a very nice house (это очень хороший дом), and if your own house is blown down (и если твой собственный дом повалило ветром), you must go somewhere else (тебе нужно уйти в другое место), mustn't you, Piglet (не так ли, Пятачок)? What would you do (что бы ты сделал), if your house was blown down (если бы твой дом свалило ветром)?"

Before Piglet could think (прежде чем Пятачок смог подумать), Pooh answered for him (Пух ответил за него).

"He'd come and live with me (он бы пришел жить ко мне)," said Pooh (сказал Пух), "wouldn't you, Piglet (не так ли, Пятачок)?"

Piglet squeezed his paw (Пятачок пожал его лапу).

"Thank you, Pooh (спасибо, Пух)," he said (сказал он), "I should love to (с большим удовольствием)."

"Well," he said at last, "it's a very nice house, and if your own house is blown down, you must go somewhere else, mustn't you, Piglet? What would you do, if your house was blown down?"

Before Piglet could think, Pooh answered for him.

"He'd come and live with me," said Pooh, "wouldn't you, Piglet?"

Piglet squeezed his paw.

"Thank you, Pooh," he said, "I should love to."

Chapter XIN WHICH CHRISTOPHER ROBIN AND POOHCOME TO AN ENCHANTED PLACE, AND WELEAVE THEM THERE

Глава 10В которой Кристофер Робин и Пух приходят в Зачарованное Место, и мы оставляем их там

Christopher Robin was going away (Кристофер Робин уходил). Nobody knew why he was going (никто /не/ знал, почему он уходит); nobody knew where he was going (никто не знал, куда он уходит); indeed, nobody even knew (в самом деле никто даже /не/ знал) why he knew that Christopher Robin was going away (откуда он знает, что Кристофер Робин уходит). But somehow or other everybody in the Forest felt (но так или иначе все в Лесу чувствовали; somehow or otherтак или иначе) that it was happening at last (что это наконец происходит). Even Smallest-of-all (даже Самый-Маленький-из-всех[77]), a friend-and-relation of Rabbit's (один из друзей и родственников Кролика) who thought he had once seen Christopher Robin's foot (который думал, что он однажды видел ступню Кристофера Робина), but couldn't be quite sure (но был не совсем уверен /в этом/) because perhaps it was something else (потому что, возможно, это было что-то другое), even S. of A. told himself (даже С. М. из В.[78] сказал себе) that Things were going to be Different (что Все будет Иначе); and Late and Early (а Поздно и Рано), two other friends-and-relations (два других друга и родственника), said, "Well, Early?" and "Well, Late (сказали: ну, Рано? и ну, Поздно)?" to each other in such a hopeless sort of way (друг другу так безнадежно) that it really didn't seem any good waiting for the answer (что, действительно, казалось, без толку ждать ответа).
