Snow White and Rose Red by Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm.

A poor widow once lived in a little cottage that had a garden in front of it, and in this garden grew two beautiful rose trees.

One of these trees bore white roses and the other red.

Now the good woman had two children who were just like the rose trees.

One was named Snow White and the other Rose Red, and they were the sweetest, kindest, most industrious and cheerful little maids in all the world.

Rose Red loved to run and skip over fields and meadows, picking nosegays of flowers and chasing the beautiful butterflies.

But Snow White was quieter and more gentle than her sister.

There was once a poor widow who lived in a lonely cottage.

In front of the cottage was a garden wherein stood two rose trees, one of which bore white and the other red roses.

She had two children who were like the two rose trees, and one was called Snow White and the other Rose Red.

They were as good and happy, as busy and cheerful as ever two children in the world were, only Snow White was more quiet and gentle than Rose Red.

Chapter six, Snow White and Red Rose.

A poor widow once lived with her two daughters in a small, lonely house.

The two girls were so fair and looked so much like roses that she called one of them Snow White and the other one Red Rose.

They were as good girls as could be found, at all times cheerful and full of love for one the other.

When they went out to walk, they would go hand in hand.

The deer grazed at their side, and the birds sat on boughs near them and sang to them.

They met with no mishap, and if night came on before they left the woods, they had no fear, but lay down on the moss and slept till dawn.
