them; also walking hand…in…hand; there stood the church; as of old;

with its red walls; on which the green ivy grew。

    The great church door flew open wide; and as they walked up the

broad aisle; soft tones of music sounded from the organ。 〃Our master

first;〃 said the gingerbread pair; making room for Knud and Joanna。 As

they knelt at the altar; Joanna bent her head over him; and cold;

icy tears fell on his face from her eyes。 They were indeed tears of

ice; for her heart was melting towards him through his strong love;

and as her tears fell on his burning cheeks he awoke。 He was still

sitting under the willow…tree in a strange land; on a cold winter

evening; with snow and hail falling from the clouds; and beating

upon his face。

    〃That was the most delightful hour of my life;〃 said he; 〃although

it was only a dream。 Oh; let me dream again。〃 Then he closed his

eyes once more; and slept and dreamed。

    Towards morning there was a great fall of snow; the wind drifted

it over him; but he still slept on。 The villagers came forth to go

to church; by the roadside they found a workman seated; but he was

dead! frozen to death under a willow…tree。





                            THE END
