Q

ma la regina voleva prendere tempo.

A

But the queen wanted to take her time

28
Q

“Devo inventarmi qualcosa che riesca a dimostrare la sensibilità di questa principessa, ma cosa?”

A

“I have to come up with something that can demonstrate the sensitivity of this princess, but what?”

A

to warn ilario

32
Q

Appena prima di entrare nella sala dove si trovava il figlio, le venne un’idea.

A

Just before entering the room where her son was, an idea came to her.

33
Q

Ho pensato a una prova per vedere se ha la sensibilità di cui tu parli:

A

I thought of a test to see if he has the sensitivity you speak of:

34
Q

le metterò un piccolo pisello sotto il materasso.

A

I’ll put a little pea under her mattress.

35
Q

Solo le principesse più sensibili possono accorgersene,

A

Only the most sensitive princesses can notice,

36
Q

che ne dici?

A

what do you say

37
Q

Ilario pensò che nessuno avrebbe mai sentito un pisello sotto il materasso

A

Ilario thought that no one would ever feel a pea under the mattress

38
Q

.E così, pur di riprendere al più presto la serata con gli amici, acconsentì alla prova.

A

And so, in order to resume the evening with friends as soon as possible, he agreed to the test.

39
Q

la serata con gli amici,

A

the evening with friends

40
Q

acconsentì alla prova.

A

41
Q

La regina, soddisfatta, mise il piccolo pisello sotto il materasso dove avrebbe dormito Holga,

A

The queen, satisfied, put the little pea under the mattress where Holga would sleep,

42
Q

e tornò da lei.

A

and returned to her.

43
Q

Nel frattempo

A

meanwhile

44
Q

Holga si era lavata e preparata per la notte, e… quale sorpresa per la regina!

A

Holga had washed and prepared for the night, and… what a surprise for the queen!

45
Q

Ripulita da tutto il fango, Holga era di una bellezza mai vista prima.

A

Cleaned of all the mud, Holga was of a beauty never seen before.

46
Q

Ripulita

A

cleaned up

47
Q

La regina si pentì di non aver inventato una prova più facile da superare…

A

The queen regretted not having invented a test that was easier to pass .

48
Q

La regina si pentì

A

The queen regretted

49
Q

La accompagnò personalmente in camera e le diede la buona notte, dopodiché andò a dormire pure lei.

A

He personally accompanied her to her room and bade her good night, after which she went to sleep too.

50
Q

Il mattino seguente, la regina svegliò di buon’ora Ilario, e gli disse di seguirla per andare a trovare la principessa Holga.

A

The following morning, the queen woke Hilary early and told him to follow her to visit Princess Holga.

51
Q

svegliò di buon’ora Ilario

A

ilario woke up early

52
Q

al principe Ilario quasi venne un colpo per quanto era bella quella ragazza.

A

Prince Hilary was almost shocked at how beautiful that girl was.

53
Q

Holga, però, aveva un viso molto stanco e due grandi borse sotto gli occhi.

A

Holga, however, had a very tired face and two large bags under her eyes.

54
Q

Principessa Holga, vi vedo molto stanca. Per caso non avete dormito bene questa notte? – chiese la regina.

A

Princess Holga, I see you very tired. Did you not sleep well tonight? Asked the queen.

55
Q

Purtroppo no, mia regina. Ho passato la notte in bianco per via di un continuo dolore alla schiena, come se ci fosse un sassolino nel materasso…

A

Unfortunately not, my queen. I spent the night in sleep because of a continuous pain in my back, as if there was a pebble in the mattress …

56
Q

notte insonne

A

sleepless night

57
Q

La regina sorrise e guardò il figlio, che,

A

The queen smiled and looked at her son, who,

58
Q

che ancora colpito dalla bellezza di Holga, non aveva capito cosa fosse successo.

A

who, still struck by Holga’s beauty, did not understand what had happened.

59
Q

Ilario, figlio mio, questa principessa è sicuramente la più sensibile di tutte le principesse della terra.

A

Ilario, my son, this princess is certainly the most sensitive of all the princesses on earth.

60
Q

Holga guardò incuriosita la regina, che continuò dicendo:

A

Holga looked curiously at the queen, who went on to say:

61
Q

Quindi, figlio mio, in virtù della grande sensibilità dimostrata da questa ragazza, credo che acconsentirai di buon grado a sposarla.

A

So, my son, by virtue of this girl’s great sensitivity, I believe you will gladly agree to marry her.

62
Q

Come hai potuto sentire, non ha dormito tutta la notte a causa del pisello che ho messo sotto il materasso.

A

As you might have heard, he didn’t sleep all night because of the pea I put under the mattress.

63
Q

Ilario non ebbe nulla da controbattere, anzi, già innamorato di Holga disse solo: – Certamente!

A

Ilario had nothing to argue with, on the contrary, already in love with Holga he only said: - Of course!

64
Q

controbattere

A

to counter (to argue)

65
Q

E fu così che finalmente il principe Ilario mise la testa a posto e sposò la principessa Holga.

A

And so it was that finally Prince Hilary settled his mind and married Princess Holga.

66
Q

anzi

rather

67
Q

E vissero tutti felici e contenti.

And they all lived happily ever after.
