‘Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Who is fairest of us all?’

In the evening the seven Dwarfs came back

The scullions brought live coals, which he had to eat until the flames poured out of his mouth

‘The Thirteenth Fairy’

But round the castle a hedge of briar roses began to grow up

The Jew was forced to spring up and begin to dance

Dancing as hard as he could

The Three Sleeping Princesses

So the rich Brother had to put his Brother’s Turnip into a cart, and have it taken home

When he got home he had the rope in his hand, but there was nothing at the end of it

The King could no longer withhold his daughter

When she entered she met a Dwarf

The Ravens coming home

Does the gentleman wear red breeches, and has he a pointed muzzle?

He called three times, ‘Iron Hans,’ as loud as he could
