Then trees could sing and flowers\r\nspeak and birds would carry messages about\r\nthe world; wild beasts were often loyal friends\r\nto men and helped them in their difficulties.\r\nIn these old days, most noble dukes and earls\r\nwould fall in love with dairymaids whose gentle\r\nways and manners charmed their hearts.\r\nSometimes great kings grew weary of the splendor\r\nof their courts and left their thrones to\r\nlive as simple peasants. Each princess had[Pg 2]\r\na fairy godmother who showered her with magic\r\ngifts. Then wise men read the stars and seers\r\nwould gaze in crystal bowls to tell the coming\r\ngood or ill they saw.\nIn those old days, the housewives left a bit\r\nof bread and cheese upon the pantry shelf each\r\nevening, that the brownie who was said to dwell\r\nin every kitchen might have a midnight feast.\r\nThese brownies, 'twas said also, would make\r\nmuch mischief if they were not treated very\r\nwell. In early dawns, when fields of flowers\r\nwere asparkle in the sun, the milkmaids used\r\nto bathe their eyes and ears with dew that they\r\nmight see the fairyfolk forever afterward and\r\nhear them sing at midnight in the glen. The\r\nfarmers' boys would search among the hedges\r\nin hopes of meeting The Red Caps who were\r\nsaid to bring much luck. These Red Caps\r\ntoo were said to give a magic purse of gold to\r\nthose they fancied,a purse that was always\r\nbrimful no matter what was spent from it.\r\nThe witches still rode broomsticks through the\r\nskies and there were wishing wells and magic\r\ncharms and spells.\n\u003cb\u003e ......Buy Now (To Read More)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEbook Number\u003c\/b\u003e: 35458 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e: Brady, Loretta Ellen \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRelease Date\u003c\/b\u003e: Mar 2, 2011 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat\u003c\/b\u003e: eBook \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage\u003c\/b\u003e: English \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eContributors\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIllustrator\u003c\/b\u003e: Preston, Alice Bolam \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Brady, Loretta Ellen \/ eBook \/ English","offer_id":43220223066269,"sku":"gb-35458-ebook","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/products\/35458.jpg?v=1671546435","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/the-green-forest-fairy-book-gb-35458","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
