"Childhood's Favorites and Fairy Stories The Young Folks Treasury, Volume 1"


The first said, "Who has been sitting on my chair?"
The second, "Who has been eating off my plate?"
The third, "Who has been taking some of my bread?"
The fourth, "Who has been eating my fruit?"
The fifth, "Who has been using my fork?"
The sixth, "Who has been cutting with my knife?"
The seventh, "Who has been drinking out of my mug?"
Then the first looked round and saw that there was a little hole in
his bed, and he said:
"Who has been getting into my bed?" The others came up and each called
out:
"Somebody has been lying in my bed too." But the seventh, when he
looked at his bed, saw little Snow-white, who was lying asleep there.
And he called the others, who came running up, and they cried out with
wonder, and brought their seven little candles and let the light fall
on little Snow-white.
"Oh, heavens! oh, heavens!" cried they, "what a lovely child!" and
they were so glad that they did not wake her, but let her sleep on in
the bed. And the seventh dwarf slept with the others, one hour with
each, and so got through the night.
When it was morning little Snow-white awoke, and was afraid when she
saw the seven dwarfs. But they were friendly and asked her what her
name was.
