The SNOW-CHILD (14) [The SNOW-CHILD]
The SNOW-CHILD (14)
" Do not tell me of making live figures out of snow. Come, wife; this little stranger must not stay out in the cold a moment longer. We will bring her into the parlour, and you shall give her a supper of warm bread and milk, and make her as comfortable as you can.
Meanwhile I will inquire among the neighbours; or, if necessary, send the city-crier about the streets to give notice of a lost child. "
" Father, " cried Violet, putting herself before him, " it is true what I have been telling you ! This is our little snow-girl, and she cannot live unless she breathes the cold west wind. Do not make her come into the hot room ! "
" Nonsense, child, nonsense, nonsense ! " cried the father.
" Run into the house this moment ! It is too late to play any longer. I must take care of this little girl immediately, or she will catch her death of cold ! "
