On entering the first of the chambers, to which these doors lead, you will see a large chest, standing in the middle of the floor, and upon it a dog seated, with a pair of eyes as large as teacups. But you need not be at all afraid of him; I will give you my blue checked apron, which you must spread upon the floor, and then boldly seize hold of the dog, and place him upon it. You can then open the chest, and take from it as many pence as you please, they are only copper pence; but if you would rather have silver money, you must go into the second chamber. Here you will find another dog, with eyes as big as mill-wheels; but do not let that trouble you. Place him upon my apron, and then take what money you please. If, however, you like gold best, enter the third chamber, where there is another chest full of it. The dog who sits on this chest is very dreadful; his eyes are as big as a tower, but do not mind him. If he also is placed upon my apron, he cannot hurt you, and you may take from the chest what gold you will.” “Aeu ngaenz ha,” Yahgeq han naeuz; “gou lwnh mwngz rox, mwngz ruenz daengz gij namh laj gofaex le, mwngz couh yawjraen aen ding hung, ndawde miz sam bak aen daeng ciuq ronghsagsag; gaenlaeng, mwngz couh raen miz sam aen dou, sam aen dou haenx cungj haemq yungzheih hai, aenvih gij yaekseiz gyoengqde cungj cuengq youq ndaw sujdou.

Then he closed the lid, seated the dog upon it again, and walked into another chamber. And, sure enough, there sat the dog with eyes as big as mill-wheels. “Mwngz dwg duz ma gyaeu,” Daegbing naeuz, doq gaemh dawz de, aeu gaiq buhdox gaemq de, doq daj aen loengx hung coux rim doengzcienz haenx dawz gij doengzcienz cuengq haeuj gij daehbuh de bae.

But when he saw what a quantity of silver money it contained, he very quickly threw away all the coppers he had taken, and filled his pockets and his knapsack with nothing but silver. “Mwngz ceiq ndei mbouj baenzneix yawj gou,” Daegbing naeuz; “danghnaeuz mwngz yienghneix yawj gou, song da mwngz couh aeu rih raemxda he,” gangj sat, de aeu gaiq buhdox gaemq duzma, couh hai aen loengx.

But after looking at him more closely, he thought he had been civil enough, so he placed him on the floor, and opened the chest. Good gracious, what a quantity of gold there was! Enough to buy all the sugar-sticks of the sweet-stuff women; all the tin soldiers, whips, and rocking-horses in the world, or even the whole town itself. There was, indeed, an immense quantity. So the soldier now threw away all the silver money he had taken, and filled his pockets and his knapsack with gold instead; and not only his pockets and his knapsack, but even his cap and boots, so that he could scarcely walk. “Mwngz caeux,” Daegbing aeu fwngz mo aen mauh de dwk naeuz, aenvih ciuh vunz de caengz raen gvaq duzma baenzneix yiengh.

The next day, however, he procured some good clothes and proper boots, so that our soldier soon became known as a fine gentleman, and the people visited him, and told him all the wonders that were to be seen in the town, and of the king’s beautiful daughter, the princess.

No one but the king himself can pass in or out, for there has been a prophecy that she will marry a common soldier, and the king cannot bear to think of such a marriage.” “Vunzrog mij ndaej bae raen de bw,” gyoengqde naeuz; “de gag youq aen singz hung aeu dij doengz hwnjbaenz haenx, henzsingz miz ciengz miz dap laengz, cijmiz Vuengzdaeq bouxndeu, vunzwnq mij ndaej haeuj ok aen singz neix, boux suenqmingh naeuz dahlwg de aeu haq boux guhbing, Vuengzdaeq gig simnyap cungj doxgap neix. “I should like very much to see her,” thought the soldier; but he could not obtain permission to do so. However, he passed a very pleasant time; went to the theatre, drove in the king’s garden, and gave a great deal of money to the poor, which was very good of him; he remembered what it had been in olden times to be without a shilling. Now he was rich, had fine clothes, and many friends, who all declared he was a fine fellow and a real gentleman, and all this gratified him exceedingly. “Gou gig siengj bae raen de,” Daegbing naemj; hoeng de mbouj miz cinjlingh bae yienghneix guh.

But his money would not last forever; and as he spent and gave away a great deal daily, and received none, he found himself at last with only two shillings left. So he was obliged to leave his elegant rooms, and live in a little garret under the roof, where he had to clean his own boots, and even mend them with a large needle. Hoeng gij cienz de mbouj yungh ndaej baenz seiq bw; de ngoenzngoenz cungj yungh bae, hawj okbae baenzlai cienz, danhseih cij miz ok mij miz haeuj, gig vaiq de cij lw miz song faen cienz lo.

None of his friends came to see him, there were too many stairs to mount up. One dark evening, he had not even a penny to buy a candle; then all at once he remembered that there was a piece of candle stuck in the tinder-box, which he had brought from the old tree, into which the witch had helped him.

He found the tinderbox, but no sooner had he struck a few sparks from the flint and steel, than the door flew open and the dog with eyes as big as teacups, whom he had seen while down in the tree, stood before him, and said, “What orders, master?” De ra raen aen lwgloengx getfeiz le, de baez get geij mbat feiz, aen dou couh hai, duzma song da miz boicaz baenz hung haenx, duz de youq laj faex raen gvaq haenx, couh ndwn youq baihnaj de naeuz, “Mwngz yaek hemq gou guh gijmaz, Bouxcawj?” “Hallo,” said the soldier; “well, this is a pleasant tinderbox, if it brings me all I wish for.” “Vei,” Daegbing naeuz; “danghnaeuz gou yaek aeu gijmaz doxgaiq de couh hawj ndaej gijhaenx gou, aen lwgloengx neix caen dwg aen ndei he.” “Bring me some money,” said he to the dog. “Dawz saek di cienz daeuj hawj gou ba,” Daegbing doiq duzma gangj. He was gone in a moment, and presently returned, carrying a large bag of coppers in his mouth. The soldier very soon discovered after this the value of the tinderbox. If he struck the flint once, the dog who sat on the chest of copper money made his appearance; if twice, the dog came from the chest of silver; and if three times, the dog with eyes like towers, who watched over the gold. The soldier had now plenty of money; he returned to his elegant rooms, and reappeared in his fine clothes, so that his friends knew him again directly, and made as much of him as before.

After a while he began to think it was very strange that no one could get a look at the princess. “Every one says she is very beautiful,” thought he to himself; “but what is the use of that if she is to be shut up in a copper castle surrounded by so many towers. Can I by any means get to see her. Stop! Where is my tinderbox?” Then he struck a light, and in a moment the dog, with eyes as big as teacups, stood before him.

She was lying on the dog’s back asleep, and looked so lovely, that every one who saw her would know she was a real princess. The soldier could not help kissing her, true soldier as he was. Then the dog ran back with the princess; but in the morning, while at breakfast with the king and queen, she told them what a singular dream she had had during the night, of a dog and a soldier, that she had ridden on the dog’s back, and been kissed by the soldier.

So the next night one of the old ladies of the court was set to watch by the princess’s bed, to discover whether it really was a dream, or what else it might be. “Cit goj neix haemq ndei dingq ha,” vuengzhaeuh naeuz.

The soldier longed very much to see the princess once more, so he sent for the dog again in the night to fetch her, and to run with her as fast as ever he could. But the old lady put on water boots, and ran after him as quickly as he did, and found that he carried the princess into a large house. She thought it would help her to remember the place if she made a large cross on the door with a piece of chalk. Then she went home to bed, and the dog presently returned with the princess. But when he saw that a cross had been made on the door of the house, where the soldier lived, he took another piece of chalk and made crosses on all the doors in the town, so that the lady-in-waiting might not be able to find out the right door.

	[Continued: Swnj Baihgwnz] The Tinder-Box (6) English Cuengh So they felt it would be useless to search any farther. But the queen was a very clever woman; she could do a great deal more than merely ride in a carriage. She took her large gold scissors, cut a piece of silk into squares, and made a neat little bag. This bag she filled with buckwheat flour, and tied it round the princess’s neck; and then she cut a small hole in the bag, so that the flour might be scattered on the ground as the princess went along.

During the night, the dog came again and carried the princess on his back, and ran with her to the soldier, who loved her very much, and wished that he had been a prince, so that he might have her for a wife. The dog did not observe how the flour ran out of the bag all the way from the castle wall to the soldier’s house, and even up to the window, where he had climbed with the princess.

Therefore in the morning the king and queen found out where their daughter had been, and the soldier was taken up and put in prison. Oh, how dark and disagreeable it was as he sat there, and the people said to him, “To-morrow you will be hanged.” It was not very pleasant news, and besides, he had left the tinder-box at the inn. In the morning he could see through the iron grating of the little window how the people were hastening out of the town to see him hanged; he heard the drums beating, and saw the soldiers marching.

Every one ran out to look at him, and a shoemaker’s boy, with a leather apron and slippers on, galloped by so fast, that one of his slippers flew off and struck against the wall where the soldier sat looking through the iron grating. “Hallo, you shoemaker’s boy, you need not be in such a hurry,” cried the soldier to him. “There will be nothing to see till I come; but if you will run to the house where I have been living, and bring me my tinder-box, you shall have four shillings, but you must put your best foot foremost.” Bouxboux cungj cung okdaeuj yawj Daegbing.

	[Continued: Swnj Baihgwnz] The Tinder-Box (7) English Cuengh The shoemaker’s boy liked the idea of getting the four shillings, so he ran very fast and fetched the tinder-box, and gave it to the soldier. And now we shall see what happened. Outside the town a large gibbet had been erected, round which stood the soldiers and several thousands of people. The king and the queen sat on splendid thrones opposite to the judges and the whole council. The soldier already stood on the ladder; but as they were about to place the rope around his neck, he said that an innocent request was often granted to a poor criminal before he suffered death.

He wished very much to smoke a pipe, as it would be the last pipe he should ever smoke in the world. The king could not refuse this request, so the soldier took his tinder-box, and struck fire, once, twice, thrice,— and there in a moment stood all the dogs;—the one with eyes as big as teacups, the one with eyes as large as mill-wheels, and the third, whose eyes were like towers. “Help me now, that I may not be hanged,” cried the soldier. De naeuz de haemq yaek gwn doengh ien, aenvih doengh neix couh dwg doengh ndeu ceiq doeklaeng de youq gwnzbiengz gwn haenx lo.

And the dogs fell upon the judges and all the councillors; seized one by the legs, and another by the nose, and tossed them many feet high in the air, so that they fell down and were dashed to pieces. Sam duz ma sikhaek gaemh dawz gyoengq bouxsaemj caeuq bouxokgeiq, mbangj dawz ga, mbangj cug ndaeng, vut gyoengqde hwn gwnzmbwn bae sangsang, baenzneix gyoengqde boemz roengzma lajnamh seiz couh mbouj baenz vunz lo. “I will not be touched,” said the king. But the largest dog seized him, as well as the queen, and threw them after the others. Then the soldiers and all the people were afraid, and cried, “Good soldier, you shall be our king, and you shall marry the beautiful princess.” “Gou mbouj hawj mo,” vuengzdaeq naeuz.

The princess came out of the copper castle, and became queen, which was very pleasing to her. The wedding festivities lasted a whole week, and the dogs sat at the table, and stared with all their eyes.

He did not care for his soldiers, and the theatre did not amuse him; the only thing, in fact, he thought anything of was to drive out and show a new suit of clothes. He had a coat for every hour of the day; and as one would say of a king “He is in his cabinet,” so one could say of him, “The emperor is in his dressing-room.” Doenghbaez miz boux vuengzdaeg ndeu, de ngoenznaengz cij naemj daenj buhmoq, saengq sat gij ngaenz de bae cawx buhmoq.

One day two swindlers came to this city; they made people believe that they were weavers, and declared they could manufacture the finest cloth to be imagined. Their colours and patterns, they said, were not only exceptionally beautiful, but the clothes made of their material possessed the wonderful quality of being invisible to any man who was unfit for his office or unpardonably stupid.

I must have this cloth woven for me without delay.” And he gave a large sum of money to the swindlers, in advance, that they should set to work without any loss of time. “Cungj baengz haenx geizheih dahraix bw,” Vuengzdaeq naemj. “Danghnaeuz gou ndaej daenj dauq buh aeu gij baengz neix guhbaenz haenx ne gou couh yawj ndaej ok ndaw vuengzguek gou bouxlawz mbouj hab guh aen guen de; gou couh nyinh ndaej ok bouxlawz dwg bouxcing, bouxlawz dwg bouxhukhak.
