Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (4)

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (4)

Snow White had no fear of the kindly huntsman.

She went happily into the forest with him.

It was beautiful there among the trees, and the Princess, not knowing what was in store for her,skipped along beside the huntsman, now stopping to pick violets, now singing a happy tune.

The huntsman watched Snow White as she skipped and sag through the forest.

At last the poor huntsman could bear it no longer.
He fell to his knees before the Princess.

" I cannot kill you, Princess, " he said, " even though it is Queen's command. Run into the forest and hide, but you must never return to the castle. "

Then away back to the castle, he killed a small animal and took its heart in the jeweled box to the wicked Queen.
