Английские волшебные сказки / English Fairy Tales

But just then the harp cried out: ‘Master! Master!’ and the ogre swung himself down on to the beanstalk, which shook with his weight. Down climbs Jack, and after him climbed the ogre. By this time Jack had climbed down and climbed down and climbed down till he was very nearly home. So he called out: ‘Mother! Mother! bring me an axe, bring me an axe.’ And his mother came rushing out with the axe in her hand, but when she came to the beanstalk she stood stock still with fright, for there she saw the ogre with his legs just through the clouds.

But Jack jumped down (но Джек прыгнул вниз) and got hold of the axe (и взял топор) and gave a chop at the beanstalk (и нанес: «дал» удар по бобовому стеблю) which cut it half in two (который /удар/ почти разрубил его пополам: «разрубил на половину на две части»). The ogre felt the beanstalk shake and quiver (людоед почувствовал, что бобовый стебель трясется и дрожит), so he stopped to see what was the matter (так что он остановился посмотреть в чем: «что» было дело).

Then Jack gave another chop with the axe (тогда Джек нанес еще один удар топором), and the beanstalk was cut in two (и бобовый стебель был разрублен надвое) and began to topple over (и начал опрокидываться). Then the ogre fell down (тогда людоед упал вниз) and broke his crown (и разбил свою голову: «свой венец»), and the beanstalk came toppling after (и бобовый стебель свалился вслед за ним).

Then Jack showed his mother his golden harp (затем Джек показал своей матери свою золотую арфу), and what with showing that and selling the golden eggs (и из-за показывания этого и продавания = продажи золотых яиц), Jack and his mother became very rich (Джек и его мать стали очень богатыми), and he married a great princess (и он женился на великой принцессе), and they lived happy ever after (и они жили счастливые всю жизнь: «всегда потом»).
