The Fisherman and his Wife (15 完)

  But the storm was raging so fiercely that he could scarcely stand.

  The sky was as black as ink, it was thundering and lightening, and the sea was tossing an great waves as high as church towers and mountains, and each had a white crest of foam.

  So he shouted, not able to hear his own voice :
  " Once a prince, but changed 
    you be
    Into a flounder in the sea.
    Come ! for my wife, Isabel,
    Wishes what I dare not tell. "

  " Well, what does she want now ? " asked the Flounder.

  " Alas ! " he said, " she wants to be a god. "

  " Go home,then ;she is sitting again in the hut. "

  And there they are sitting to this day.
