The wonderful Sheep (11) [The Wonderful Sheep]
The wonderful Sheep (11)
So saying she advanced towards the place where she heard the bleating, but what was her surprise when, in a lovely little glade quite surrounded by trees, she saw a large sheep ; its wool was as white as snow, and its horns shone like gold ; it had a garland of flowers round its neck, and strings of great pearls about its legs, and a collar of diamonds ; it lay upon a bank of orange-flowers, under a canopy of cloth of gold which protected it from the heat of the sun.
Nearly a hundred other sheep were scattered about, not eating the grass, but some drinking coffee, lemonade, or sherbet, others eating ices, strawberries and cream, or sweetmeats, while others, again, were playing games.
Many of them wore golden collars with jewels, flowers, and ribbons.
Miranda stopped short in amazement at this unexpected sight, and was looking in all directions for the shepherd of this surprising flock, when the beautiful sheep came bounding towards her.
