Сторінка xiii - The illustrations of this volume . . . . are of quite sterling and admirable art, of a class precisely parallel in elevation to the character of the tales which they illustrate; and the original etchings, as I have before said in the Appendix to my ' Elements of Drawing,' were unrivalled^ in masterfulness of touch since Rembrandt (in some qualities of delineation, unrivalled even by him).
Сторінка xiv - Drawing' were unrivalled^ in masterfulness of touch since Rembrandt (in some qualities of delineation, unrivalled even by him). . . . To make somewhat enlarged copies of them, looking at them through a magnifying glass, and never putting two lines where Cruikshank has put only one, would be an exercise in decision and severe drawing which would leave afterwards little to be learnt in schools.
Сторінка 20 - O man of the sea! Come listen to me, For Alice my wife, The plague of my life, Hath sent me to beg a boon of thee!
Сторінка 150 - Some witch told you that! Some witch told you that !" cried the little man, and dashed his right foot in a rage so deep into the floor that he was forced to lay hold of it with both hands to pull it out. Then he made the best of his way off, while...
Сторінка 142 - ... came swimming up again with the ball in his mouth, and threw it on the grass. The king's daughter was delighted to see her pretty plaything once more, and picked it up, and ran away with it. "Wait, wait,
Сторінка 148 - The miller's house was close by, and the miller, you must know, had a very beautiful daughter. She was, moreover, very shrewd and clever ; and the miller was so proud of her that he one day told the king of the land, who used to come and hunt in the wood, that his daughter could spin gold out of straw. Now this king was very fond of money ; and when he heard the miller's boast his greediness was raised, and he sent for the girl to be brought before him.
Сторінка 36 - ... on the ground. However, she was not dead, but had only fallen into a deep sleep; and the king and the queen, who just then came home, and all their court, fell asleep too; and the horses slept in the stables, and the dogs in the court, the pigeons on the housetop and the flies on the walls. Even the fire on the hearth left off blazing and went to sleep; and the meat that was roasting...
Сторінка 334 - In a great number of these tales I can perfectly remember the nursery stories of my childhood, some of them distinctly, and others like the memory of a dream. Should you ever think of enlarging your very interesting notes, I would with pleasure point out to you such of the tales as I remember. The Prince Paddock...
Сторінка 14 - ... friend the fox met him, and said, " You see now what has happened on account of your not listening to my counsel. I will still, however, tell you how to find the golden horse, if you will do as I bid you. You must go straight on till you come to the castle where the horse stands in his stall : by his side will lie the groom fast asleep and snoring : take away the horse quietly, but be sure to put the old leathern saddle upon him, and not the golden one that is close by it.
Сторінка 3 - Heaven reward you for your kindness ! " said Hans, as he gave the butcher the cow, and took the pig off' the wheelbarrow, and drove it off, holding it by the string that was tied to its leg. So on he jogged, and all seemed now to go right with him. He had met with some misfortunes to be sure, but he was now well repaid for all.
