None knew of the glory of the forest that Christmas morning, nor of the new life that came to little Barbara. NONE KNEW OF THE GLORY OF THE FOREST THAT CHRISTMAS MORNING NOR OF THE NEW LIFE THAT CAME TO LITTLE BARBARA
mn 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. 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 the prince took Barbara in his arms and blessed her, and turning round about, returned with the little child unto his home, while the forest and the sky and the angels sang a wondrous song. The city waited for the prince, but he did not come. D 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 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 THE PRINCE TOOK BARBARA IN HIS ARMS AND BLESSED HER AND TURNING ROUND ABOUT RETURNED WITH THE LITTLE CHILD UNTO HIS HOME WHILE THE FOREST AND THE SKY AND THE ANGEL SANG A WONDROUS SONG THE CITY WAITED FOR THE PRINCE BUT HE DID NOT COME
