The smell OF it went up through the rafters into
the rooms above, and the Grand Duchess began to
cry-he was accustomed TO being hungry
When the morning came the Grand Duchess found
that her troubles only beginning.
The shepherd boy used to work as we'll as to
hunger but the Grand Duchess wept again and again
all the hard tasks set for her by the cruel
mother. She dared dsobey. In this way weeks
passed by. The Grand Duchess scrubbed the stone
floor and did nearly all the work of the house The
shepherd boy was sent out to gather sticks for the
fire berries for cooking The Duchess learned to
make these into pies, while all the time the Witch
Woman sat by the fire with the train she had cut

bundles of sticks. Then her chin would go up, and
she never failed to say contemptuousy:
"You-who promised to take of me-"
And the shepherd boy would creep to his heap

est for many reasons, to let any know what had
