And as Barbara arose and went to the prince, the little snowflake fell from her cheek upon her bosom, and forthwith became a pearl more precious than all other jewels upon earth. AND AS BARBARA AROSE AND WENT TO THE PRINCE THE LITTLE SNOWFLAKE FELL FROM HER CHEEK UPON HER BOSOM AND FORTHWITH BECAME A PEARL MORE PRECIOUS THAN ALL OTHER JEWELS UPON EARTH
rbara's ear of the Christmas morning and of the coming of the prince. But Barbara slept; she did not hear the carol of the bird. "Alas!" sighed the vine, "Barbara will not awaken, and the prince is coming." Then the vine and the snowdrop wept, and the pine-tree and the fir were very sad. The prince came through the forest clad in royal raiment and wearing a golden crown. Angels came with him, and the forest sang a great hymn unto the prince, such a hymn as had never before been heard on earth. The prince came to the sleeping child and smiled upon her and called her by name. "Barbara, my little one," said the prince, "awaken, and come with me." Then Barbara opened her eyes and beheld the prince. And it seemed as if a new life had come to her, for there was warmth in her body and a flush upon her cheeks and a light in her eyes that were divine. And she was clothed no longer in rags, but in white flowing raiment; and upon the soft brown hair there was a crown like those which angels wear.
