Sayfa 115 / 626

When the time came for them to set out, the fairy went into her

bed-chamber, and took a little knife, and cut off a lock of her

hair, and gave it to the princess, and said, 'Take care of it,

road.' Then they all took a sorrowful leave of the princess; and

she put the lock of hair into her bosom, got upon her horse, and

set off on her journey to her bridegroom's kingdom.
