"Yes, the prince will come through the forest," said the little snowdrop gleefully. YES THE PRINCE WILL COME THROUGH THE FOREST SAID THE LITTLE SNOWDROP GLEEFULLY
 oh, but I will have my fun with them!" Then, having dropped the little snowflake on Barbara's cheek, the wind whisked off to the city again. And we can imagine that it played rare pranks with the proud, haughty folk on its return; for the wind, as you know, is no respecter of persons. "Dear Barbara," said the snowflake, "I will watch with thee for the coming of the prince." And Barbara was glad, for she loved the little snowflake, that was so pure and innocent and gentle. "Tell us, O pine-tree," cried the vine, "what do you see in the east? Has the prince yet entered the forest?" "The east is full of black clouds," said the pine-tree, "and the winds that hurry to the hill-tops sing of the snow." "But the city is full of brightness," said the fir. "I can see the lights in the cathedral, and I can hear wondrous music about the prince and his coming." "Yes, they are singing of the prince in the cathedral," said Barbara sadly. "But we shall see him first," whispered the vine reassuringly.
