Ashenputtel goes to the ball 30
The Fishes, in their joy, stretched up their heads above the water, and promised to reward him 38
The Seven Kids and their mother capered and danced round the spring in their joy 44
The Ducks, which he had once saved, dived and brought up the key from the depths 48
So the four Brothers took their sticks in their hands, bade their Father good-bye, and passed out of the town gate 68
The King�s only daughter had been carried off by a Dragon 72
She went away accompanied by the Lions 76
Alas! dear Falada, there thou hangest 92
Blow, blow, little breeze, And Conrad�s hat seize 96
Good Dwarf, can you not tell me where my brothers are? 106
[Pg x] Then he ran after him, still holding the carving-knife, and cried, �Only one, only one!� 112
The Son made a circle, and his Father and he took their places within it, and the little black Mannikin appeared 116
Once upon a time a poor Peasant, named Crabb, was taking a load of wood drawn by two oxen to the town for sale 120
The good little Sister cut off her own tiny finger, fitted it into the lock, and succeeded in opening it 124
But they said one after another: �Halloa! who has been eating off my plate? Who has been drinking out of my cup?� 126
Then the Youth took the axe and split the anvil with one blow, catching in the Old Man�s beard at the same time 150
The Beggar took her by the hand and led her away 154
