Text Appearing Before Image:
Soldier ran on ahead, lay down in bed, and when the twelve came lagging by, slowly and wearily, he began to snore again, very loud, so that they said, We are quite safe as far as he is concerned. Then they took off their beautiful dresses, put them away, placed the worn-out shoes under their beds, and lay down. The next morning the Soldier determined to say nothing, but to see the wonderful doings again. So he went with them the second and third nights. Everything was just the same as the first time, and they danced each time till their shoes were in holes ; but the third time the Soldier took away a wine-cup as a token. When the appointed hour came for his answer, he took the three twigs and the cup with him and went before the King. The Twelve Princesses stood behind the door listening to hear what he would say. When the King put the question, Where did my daughters dance their shoes to pieces in the night ? he answered : With twelve Princes in an under-ground castle. Then he produced the tokens.44
Text Appearing After Image:
On the opposite side of the lake stood a splendid brightly-lighted Castle. GRIMMS FAIRY TALES The King sent for his daughters and asked them whether the Soldier had spoken the truth. As they saw that they were betrayed, and would gain nothing by lies, they were obliged to admit all. There upon the King asked the Soldier which one he would choose as his wife. He answered : I am no longer young, give me the eldest. So the wedding was celebrated that very day, and the kingdom was promised to him on the King's death. But for every night which the Princes had spent in dancing with the Princesses a day was added to their time of enchantment. 46
