The Nightingale (1)

The Nightingale (1)

  The palace of the Emperor of China was the most splendid in the world, all made of priceless porcelain, but so brittle and delicate that you had to take great care how you touched it.

  In the garden were the most beautiful flowers, and on them were tied silver bells which tinkled, so that you could not help looking at the flowers

  The garden was so large that even the gardener himself did not know where it ended.

  If you ever got beyond it, you came to a stately forest.

  The forest sloped  down to the sea, and these trees there lived a nightingale. She sang so beautifully that even the poor fishman who had so much to do stood and listened he came at night to cast his nets.
  " How beutiful it is ! " he said.
