She was forced, therefore,to hold her tongue, and to have recourse to the Frog, who was the kindest body in the world. They wept together; for as soon as she put on her cap of roses, the Frog was able to laugh or weep like anyone else.

She immediately cut some wood, and the little rustic palace of the Queen was so quickly reared, that she was able to sleep in it that night.

When he got close he saw that it was a boy of perhaps his own age.,"It'll make 'em a grand weddin' gift, Lou.",Betty reflected a moment. “When they got tired dancing they ’journed to the pansy bed. The queen set down on a big purple pansy that was jist like a lovely throne. The other fairies came an’ bowed low in front o’ her, then they gathered up their long silver trains an’ walked backwards. Then the queen rose up an’ walked all round among the flowers an’ the other fairies follered her.
