Cap o' Rushes came.

      “Did you make my gruel?” says he.

      “Yes, I did,” says she.

      “Where did you get this ring?” says he.

      “From him that gave it me,” says she.

      “Who are you, then?” says the young man.

      “I'll show you,” says she. And she offed with her cap o' rushes, and there she was in her beautiful clothes.

      Well, the master's son he got well very soon, and they were to be married in a little time. It was to be a very grand wedding, and every one was asked far and near. And Cap o' Rushes' father was asked. But she never told anybody who she was.

      But before the wedding she went to the cook, and says she:

      “I want you to dress every dish without a mite o' salt.”

      “That'll be rare nasty,” says the cook.

      “That doesn't signify,” says she.

      “Very well,” says the cook.

      Well, the wedding-day came, and they were married. And after they were married all the company sat down to the dinner. When they began to eat the meat, that was so tasteless they couldn't eat it. But Cap o' Rushes' father he tried first one dish and then another, and then he burst out crying.

      “What is the matter?” said the master's son to him.

      “Oh!” says he, “I had a daughter. And I asked her how much she loved me. And she said 'As much as fresh meat loves salt.' And I turned her from my door, for I thought she didn't love me. And now I see she loved me best of all. And she may be dead for aught I know.”

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
