With the leaves of autumn dropping all round as
I went
peal and play,
Fainter fainter fainter fainter till they seemed to die
away:
And beside silver runnel, on little heap Of sand,
1 saw the green Gnome sitting, with his cheek upon
his hand;
Then he started up to see me- he with cry and
bound,
And drew me from my palfrey white, and sat me on
the ground;
crimson, crimson were his locks his face green
to see,
But he CRIED 40 ighthared lassie, You are bound Ia
marry me"
He clasped me round the middle small, he kissed me
the cheek,
He kissed once, he kissed me twice-I could moi
stir speak;
He kissed me twice. kissed me thrice-bnt when he
kissed again,
called aloud upon the name of Him who died for
men.

This is the same story as the German tale
of 'FThe Juniper Tree" but differs from it
in many particulars. In the German story
the boy is killed, not the girl; and he is
killed by the shutting down Of the lid of a
box on his neck, as he is looking at some
apples. The father is not made to eat Of
the flesh either; though in the correspond
ing Greek tale Of Asterinos and the Pulja
the bad woman tries to make the sister eat
of it. In the Greek story an apple tree
grows out of the grave, and bears golden
apple, not bird.
In the Hungarian tale (Erdg1yi Nepmesek
81, ga mosolygo alma the life of two
princes is bound up with golden pear trees,
which step-mother hews down. From them
goes forth bird which lays two golden eggs,
and out of these eggs come forth the prin-
ces unhurt.
The mill stone occurs in many household
tales as thunder.
| have no doubt that there is mytholo-
gical root to this curious story.
There are several versions of this same
story among the Slavic nations.
