Mother Snow (1)

Mother Snow (1)

Long long ago, in a tiny cottage in a small village there lived a widow who had a daughter and a stepdaughter.

Her own child was lazy and ugly but she loved her the most.

The stepdaughter was beautiful and had to do all the hard work.

Every day the poor girl had to sit on the edge of the well in the square, and spin and spin, till her fingers bled.

One day, while she was washing the blood from her hands, the spindle fell into the well by accident and sank to the bottom.

With tears in her eyes, she ran and told her stepmother what had happened.

The stepmother was very angry, and said, " You silly girl ! Now go and get it out. "

The girl went back to the well.
She did not know what to do.
