mountain she looked around.
"Ah." said Madam Summer. as she
watched King Frost. $50 that is your

Madam Summer went right to work.
She ran down the mountain into IN

King Frost turned back to his home,
but what a sight met his gaze when
he reached the spot where his castle had
stood
Madam Summer had been there while
he was away and on the castle and ice
covered forest she threx her warm breath
and the castle was no more.
King Forest had no place to Law his
old white head, for Madam Summer had
worked fast and sure and his icv realm
had disappeared.
With q mighty roar of rage old Kinr
Frost threw himself on the ground and
tore his frosty locks, for Miss Springime,

driven away BY Madam Summer before
he was ready to 60.
Down he went into the frosty ground
