Síða 163 - Kill me!" said the poor creature, and bent its head down upon the water, expecting nothing but death. But what was this that it saw in the clear water? It beheld its own image; and, lo! it was no longer a clumsy dark gray bird, ugly and hateful to look at, but — a swan!
Síða 161 - Yes, do go," replied the Hen. And the Duckling went away. It swam on the water, and dived, but it was slighted by every creature because of its ugliness. Now came the autumn. The leaves in the forest turned yellow and brown ; the wind caught them so that they danced about, and up in the air it was very cold. The clouds hung low, heavy with hail and snow-flakes, and on the fence stood the raven, crying, " Croak ! croak !" for mere cold ; yes, it was enough to make one feel cold to think of this.
Síða 243 - I wonder if trees will come out of the forest to look at me ? Will the sparrows fly against the panes? Shall I grow fast here, and stand adorned in summer and winter?
Síða 241 - Where are they all going?" asked the Fir Tree. " They are not greater than I — indeed, one of them was much smaller. Why do they keep all their branches? Whither are they taken?" " We know that ! We know that !

And the Fir Tree was put into a great tub filled with sand ; but no one could see that it was a tub, for it was hung round with green cloth, and stood on a large, manycolored carpet. Oh, how the Tree trembled! What was to happen now? The servants, and the young ladies also, decked it out. On one...
Síða 340 - Except ye become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
