TRADUCCIÓN
through the blood-red window changed the room into
something too horrible to describe. In that strange light,
faces became wild and frightening, and few people were
brave enough to enter the room at all.
In this room, against the farthest wall, stood a huge black
clock. Every hour it chimed loud and deep and clear, filling
the castle with its long, gloomy sound. And while the clock
chimed, the musicians stopped playing and even the
wildest dancers stood still, in silence and fear, listening to
the passing of another hour... But when the chiming stopped,
people looked at each other and laughed, trying hard to
pretend that they had not been frightened. Happiness came
into the castle again, until the clock chimed the passing of
the next hour, and the same fear returned.
Prince Prospero's ball, although given in these strange
rooms, was wild and happy. The Prince had planned
everything - the colours, the paintings on the walls, even
the cloaks and masks worn by each one of his friends. He
had chosen all the clothes with the greatest of care, putting
together the beautiful and the ugly, the strange and the
fantastic, the surprising and the frightening.
Each man and woman was dressed like a terrible dream.
And in and out of the rooms these dreams walked and danced,
their clothes changing colour each time they entered a
different room. But no one was brave enough now to enter
the black room. As the night passed and the fires burned
brighter, the colours and shapes in this room became more
horrible than ever. The black carpet and walls seemed full
of gloom, and the deep chimes of the black clock sounded
even more frightening.
But the other six rooms were full of life and pleasure.
People were dancing and singing, talking and laughing, and
the wild noise of a thousand happy men and women rang
tagh the castle then came the hour of wich

algo demasiado horrible para describirlo. En esa extraña luz
rostros se volvieron salvajes y atemorizantes, y pocas personas fueron
lo suficientemente valiente como para entrar en la habitación.
En esta habitación, contra la pared más lejana, había un enorme negro
reloj. Cada hora sonaba fuerte, profundo y claro, llenando
el castillo con su largo y sombrío sonido. Y mientras el reloj
sonó, los músicos dejaron de tocar e incluso el
Los bailarines más salvajes se quedaron quietos, en silencio y con miedo, escuchando
el paso de otra hora ... Pero cuando el repique se detuvo,
la gente se miraba y se reía, esforzándose por
fingir que no se habían asustado. La felicidad vino
en el castillo de nuevo, hasta que el reloj marcó el paso de
la siguiente hora, y el mismo miedo regresó.
El baile del Príncipe Próspero, aunque dado en estos extraños
habitaciones, era salvaje y feliz. El Príncipe había planeado
todo: los colores, las pinturas en las paredes, incluso
los mantos y máscaras que lleva cada uno de sus
