"Now I want rest after my dinner," said the Portuguese; "you must
conform to the rules of the house while you are here. I want to sleep now." The
little bird was quite taken aback, for he meant it kindly. When madam awoke
afterwards, there he stood before her with a little corn he had found, and laid
it at her feet; but as she had not slept well, she was naturally in a bad
temper. "Give that to a chicken," she said, "and don't be always standing in my
way." "Why are you angry with me?" replied the little singing-bird, "what have I
done?" "Done!" repeated the Portuguese duck, "your mode of expressing yourself
is not very polite.

singing-bird, "what have I done?" "Done!" repeated the Portuguese duck, "your
mode of expressing yourself is not very polite. I must call your attention to
that fact." "It was sunshine here yesterday," said the little bird, "but to-day
it is cloudy and the air is close." "You know very little about the weather, I
fancy," she retorted, "the day is not over yet.
Don't stand there,
looking so stupid." "But you are looking at me just as the wicked eyes looked
when I fell into the yard yesterday." "Impertinent creature!" exclaimed the
Portuguese duck: "would you compare me with the cat- that beast of prey? There's
not a drop of malicious blood in me. I've taken your part, and now I'll teach
you better manners." So saying, she made a bite at the little singing-bird's
head, and he fell dead on the ground. "Now whatever is the meaning of this?"
"she said; "could he not bear even such a little peck as I gave him? Then
certainly he was not made for this world.

His father had been at first only a
cattle dealer, but always honest and industrious, so that he had made money, and
his son, the merchant, had managed to increase his store. Clever as he was, he
had also a heart; but there was less said of his heart than of his money. All
descriptions of people visited at the merchant's house, well born, as well as
intellectual, and some who possessed neither of these recommendations. Now it
was a children's party, and there was children's prattle, which always is spoken
freely from the heart.
Among them was a beautiful little girl, who was
terribly proud; but this had been taught her by the servants, and not by her
parents, who were far too sensible people. Her father was groom of the Chambers,
which is a high office at court, and she knew it. "I am a child of the court,"
she said; now she might just as well have been a child of the cellar, for no one
can help his birth; and then she told the other children that she was well-born,
and said that no one who was not well-born could rise in the world.
It
was no use to read and be industrious, for if a person was not well-born, he
could never achieve anything. "And those whose names end with 'sen,'" said she,
"can never be anything at all. We must put our arms akimbo, and make the elbow
quite pointed, so as to keep these 'sen' people at a great distance." And then
she stuck out her pretty little arms, and made the elbows quite pointed, to show
how it was to be done; and her little arms were very pretty, for she was a
sweet-looking child.

The huckster could afford this; and
therefore the goblin remained with the huckster, which was very cunning of him.
One evening the student came into the shop through the back door to buy candles
and cheese for himself, he had no one to send, and therefore he came himself; he
obtained what he wished, and then the huckster and his wife nodded good evening
to him, and she was a woman who could do more than merely nod, for she had
usually plenty to say for herself. The student nodded in return as he turned to
leave, then suddenly stopped, and began reading the piece of paper in which the
cheese was wrapped.
The student nodded in return as he turned to leave,
then suddenly stopped, and began reading the piece of paper in which the cheese
was wrapped. It was a leaf torn out of an old book, a book that ought not to
have been torn up, for it was full of poetry. "Yonder lies some more of the same
sort," said the huckster: "I gave an old woman a few coffee berries for it; you
shall have the rest for sixpence, if you will." "Indeed I will," said the
student; "give me the book instead of the cheese; I can eat my bread and butter
without cheese.
It would be a sin to tear up a book like this. You are a
clever man; and a practical man; but you understand no more about poetry than
that cask yonder." This was a very rude speech, especially against the cask; but
the huckster and the student both laughed, for it was only said in fun. But the
goblin felt very angry that any man should venture to say such things to a
huckster who was a householder and sold the best butter. As soon as it was
night, and the shop closed, and every one in bed except the student, the goblin
stepped softly into the bedroom where the huckster's wife slept, and took away
her tongue, which of course, she did not then want.

Often, when it was dark night outside,
with rain or snow falling, the place looked quite deserted and gloomy. There
were no lamps in the street, excepting a very small one, which hung at one end
of the street, before a picture of the Virgin, which had been painted on the
wall. The dashing of the water against the bulwarks of a neighboring castle
could plainly be heard. Such evenings are long and dreary, unless people can
find something to do; and so Anthony found it. There were not always things to
be packed or unpacked, nor paper bags to be made, nor the scales to be
polished.
There were not always things to be packed or unpacked, nor
paper bags to be made, nor the scales to be polished. So Anthony invented
employment; he mended his clothes and patched his boots, and when he at last
went to bed,- his nightcap, which he had worn from habit, still remained on his
head; he had only to pull it down a little farther over his forehead. Very soon,
however, it would be pushed up again to see if the light was properly put out;
he would touch it, press the wick together, and at last pull his nightcap over
his eyes and lie down again on the other side.
But often there would
arise in his mind a doubt as to whether every coal had been quite put out in the
little fire-pan in the shop below. If even a tiny spark had remained it might
set fire to something, and cause great damage. Then he would rise from his bed,
creep down the ladder- for it could scarcely be called a flight of stairs- and
when he reached the fire-pan not a spark could be seen; so he had just to go
back again to bed. But often, when he had got half way back, he would fancy the
iron shutters of the door were not properly fastened, and his thin legs would
carry him down again.

It is not a rose from the coffin of
Romeo and Juliet, or from the grave of Walburg, though these roses will live in
everlasting song. It is not one of the roses which sprouted forth from the
blood-stained fame of Winkelreid. The blood which flows from the breast of a
hero who dies for his country is sacred, and his memory is sweet, and no rose
can be redder than the blood which flows from his veins. Neither is it the magic
flower of Science, to obtain which wondrous flower a man devotes many an hour of
his fresh young life in sleepless nights, in a lonely chamber."
"I know
where it blooms," said a happy mother, who came with her lovely child to the
bedside of the queen. "I know where the loveliest rose in the world is. It is
seen on the blooming cheeks of my sweet child, when it expresses the pure and
holy love of infancy; when refreshed by sleep it opens its eyes, and smiles upon
me with childlike affection." "This is a lovely rose," said the wise man; "but
there is one still more lovely." "Yes, one far more lovely," said one of the
women.
"Yes, one far more lovely," said one of the women. "I have seen
it, and a loftier and purer rose does not bloom. But it was white, like the
leaves of a blush-rose. I saw it on the cheeks of the queen. She had taken off
her golden crown, and through the long, dreary night, she carried her sick child
in her arms. She wept over it, kissed it, and prayed for it as only a mother can
pray in that hour of her anguish." "Holy and wonderful in its might is the white
rose of grief, but it is not the one we seek."

"No! the poor little ones are playing
with light, childish spirits. Play on, play on, thou little maiden! Soon the
years will come- yes, those glorious years. The priestly hands have been laid on
the candidates for confirmation; hand in hand they walk on the green rampart.
Thou hast a white frock on; it has cost thy mother much labor, and yet it is
only cut down for thee out of an old larger dress! You will also wear a red
shawl; and what if it hang too far down? People will only see how large, how
very large it is.

thinking of your dress, and of the Giver of all good- so glorious is it to
wander on the green rampart! "And the years roll by; they have no lack of dark
days, but you have your cheerful young spirit, and you have gained a friend- you
know not how.
You met, oh, how often! You walk together on the rampart in
the fresh spring, on the high days and holidays, when all the world come out to
walk upon the ramparts, and all the bells of the church steeples seem to be
singing a song of praise for the coming spring. "Scarcely have the violets come
forth, but there on the rampart, just opposite the beautiful Castle of
Rosenberg, there is a tree bright with the first green buds. Every year this
tree sends forth fresh green shoots. Alas! It is not so with the human heart!
Dark mists, more in number than those that cover the northern skies, cloud the
human heart.
