Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Moonshine Clover "Eight white peahens went down to the gate: ´Wait!´ they said, ´little sister, wait!´ They covered her up with feathers so fine; And none went out, when there went back nine." Along time ago there lived a King and a Queen, who had an only son. As soon as he was born his mother gave him to the forester´s wife to be nursed; for she herself had to wear her crown all day and had no time for nursing. The forester´s wife had just given birth to a little daughter of her own; but she loved both children equally and nursed them together like twins. One night the Queen had a dream that made the half of her hair turn grey. She dreamed that she saw the Prince her son at the age of twenty lying dead with a wound over the place of his heart; and near him his foster-sister was standing, with a royal crown on her head, and his heart bleeding between her hands. The next morning the Queen sent in great haste for the family Fairy, and told her of the dream. The Fairy said, "This can have but one meaning, and it is an evil one. There is some danger that threatens your son´s life in his twentieth year, and his foster-sister is to be the cause of it; also, it seems she is to make herself Queen.
