Little One Eye,Little Two Eyes, and Little Three Eyes (15)

  One day as they stood together by the tree, a young knight came by.

  " Quick, Little Two Eyes, " cried the two sisters, " creep under, so that we may not be ashamed of you ; " and they threw over poor Little Two Eyes, in a great hurry, an empty cask that stood just by the tree, and pushed beside her the golden apples which she had broken off.

  Now, as the Knight came nearer, he proved to be a handsome prince, who stood still, admired the beautiful tree of gold and silver, and said to the two sisters : " To whom does this beautiful tree belong ? She who gives me a branch of it shall have whatever she wishes. "
