One Eye, Two Eyes, Three Eyes
Three-eyes was not more skilful, and might search as she liked, but the golden apples always escaped her. They both took great trouble, but they were not able to do it, for the branches and fruit both moved away from them every time. Then Two-Eyes said the shortest prayer she knew, "Lord God, be with us always, Amen," and helped herself to some food, and enjoyed it. Any one who would bestow one branch of it on me might in return for it ask whatsoever he desired. And when Two-Eyes thought that Three-Eyes was fast asleep, she used her little charm, "Bleat, bleat, my little goat, I pray, And take the table quite away," and Three-Eyes had seen everything. The mother took them from her, and gave them to her sisters, as she said little Two Eyes did not handle them properly, but this was only from jealousy, because little Two Eyes was the only one who could reach the fruit, and she went into the house feeling more spiteful to her than ever.
The first and second time that she did this, her sisters did not remark it at all, but as it happened every time, they did observe it, and said, "There is something wrong about Two-Eyes, she always leaves her food untasted, and she used to eat up everything that was given her; she must have discovered other ways of getting food. Two eyes, are you sleeping? Once two poor women came to her in her castle, and begged for alms. When the knight saw the apples he was astonished, and asked where they came from. The mother took them away from her, and instead of treating poor Two-Eyes any better for this, she and One-Eye and Three-Eyes were only envious, because Two-Eyes alone had been able to get the fruit, and they treated her still more cruelly. And when Two-eyes thought that Three-eyes was fast asleep, she used her little charm, "Bleat, bleat, my little goat, I pray, And take the table quite away," and Three-eyes had seen everything. Then said Two-Eyes, "I will just go up, perhaps I may succeed better.
It is true that Three-Eyes shut it, but only in her cunning, to pretend it was asleep too, but it blinked, and could see everything very well. It is true that Three-eyes shut it, but only in her cunning, to pretend it was asleep too, but it blinked, and could see everything very well. Who knows what good things may be in store for us? When the knight saw the apples he was astonished, and asked where they came from. In the evening, when she went home with her goat, she found a small earthenware dish with some food, which her sisters had set ready for her, but she did not touch it. The first and second time that she did this, her sisters did not remark it at all, but as it happened every time, they did observe it, and said, "There is something wrong about Two-eyes, she always leaves her food untasted, and she used to eat up everything that was given her; she must have discovered other ways of getting food. She supposed it had grown up from the inside of the goat; for it stood over where she had buried it in the earth. Then said the knight, "Two-eyes, what shall I give thee for it? She looked in their faces, and recognized her sisters.
Come, let us go home again. It is true that Three-eyes shut it, but only in her cunning, to pretend it was asleep too, but it blinked, and could see everything very well. Go home, and ask your sister to give you the heart of the slaughtered goat, and then go and bury it in the ground in front of the house-door. I watched everything closely. When Two-eyes saw that, she went out full of trouble, seated herself on the ridge of grass at the edge of the field, and wept bitter tears.
Then the mother said to One-eye, "Climb up, my child, and gather some of the fruit of the tree for us. Can you think of some reasons why it might be good to be kind to others, even those who have not been very kind to us? At last the mother was impatient, and climbed up herself, but with no more success, for, as she appeared to grasp a branch, or fruit, her hand closed upon thin air. Little Two Eyes saw them, and, looking earnestly in their faces, she recognised her two sisters, who had become so poor that they were obliged to beg their bread from door to door. Nothing in the wide world could be more beautiful or more costly. Suddenly the wise woman once more stood by her side, and said, "Two-eyes, why art thou weeping? So she sat down on a ridge and began to weep, and so bitterly that two streams ran down from her eyes. When she is out, she says to the goat, "Bleat, bleat, my little goat, I pray, And take the table quite away," and all disappears.
In the evening, when she went home with her goat, she found a small earthenware dish with some food, which her sisters had set ready for her, but she did not touch it. But Two-eyes thought, "I must instantly make a trial, and see if what she said is true, for I am far too hungry," and she said, "Bleat, my little goat, bleat, Cover the table with something to eat," and scarcely had she spoken the words than a little table, covered with a white cloth, was standing there, and on it was a plate with a knife and fork, and a silver spoon; and the most delicious food was there also, warm and smoking as if it had just come out of the kitchen. The knight, however, desired to see her, and cried, "Two-eyes, come forth. She put two of my eyes to sleep by using a certain form of words, but When Two-Eyes saw that, she went out full of trouble, seated herself on the ridge of grass at the edge of the field, and wept bitter tears. They said to her, "Thou, with thy two eyes, art no better than the common people; thou dost not belong to us! When he saw them, he asked in astonishment where they came from.
They said to her, "Thou, with thy two eyes, art no better than the common people; thou dost not belong to us! I watched everything closely. Next morning, when they all awoke, and went to the house-door, there stood a strangely magnificent tree with leaves of silver, and fruit of gold hanging among them, so that in all the wide world there was nothing more beautiful or precious. Then Two-eyes said the shortest prayer she knew, "Lord God, be with us always, Amen," and helped herself to some food, and enjoyed it. And when Two-eyes looked out of the window of her own little room, to her great delight it was standing in front of it, and so it had followed her. However, as Two-eyes saw just as other human beings did, her sisters and her mother could not endure her. Then said the mother, "Three-eyes, do you climb up; you with your three eyes can look about you better than One-eye. Story Reads: 36,722 This is a vintage fairy tale, and may contain violence.
The knight, however, desired to see her, and cried, "Two-Eyes, come forth. Then said the knight, "Two-Eyes, what shall I give thee for it? Little Two Eyes saw them, and, looking earnestly in their faces, she recognised her two sisters, who had become so poor that they were obliged to beg their bread from door to door. There she was given beautiful clothes to wear, and as much to eat and drink as she wished, and as she grew up the young knight loved her so dearly that they were married with great rejoicings. They did not know how the tree could have come there during the night, but Two-Eyes saw that it had grown up out of the entrails of the goat, for it was standing on the exact spot where she had buried them. When she is out, she says to the goat, "Bleat, bleat, my little goat, I pray, And take the table quite away," and all disappears.
In the evening, when she went home with her goat, she found a small earthenware dish with some food, which her sisters had set ready for her, but she did not touch it. Now, when the two sisters saw little Two Eyes carried away by the handsome young knight, they were overjoyed at their good fortune. And then they did indeed repent and feel sorry for having treated her so badly in their youthful days. When she is out, she says to the goat, "Bleat, my little goat, bleat, Cover the table with something to eat," and then a little table appears before her covered with the best of food, much better than any we have here, and when she has eaten all she wants, she says, "Bleat, bleat, my little goat, I pray, And take the table quite away," and all disappears. But Three Eyes was not more skilful; with all her efforts she could not draw the branches, nor the fruit, near enough to pluck even a leaf, for they sprang back as she put out her hand.
