They weave it in the night; and then about sunrise, the fairies come and gather up the silky, spangly stuff, and take it away to make their dresses out of it. See, they're most all gone now." "Pooh! the sun dried them up." "No, he didn't; the fairies came and took them away. Of course you can't see the fairies, and that's why people think the sun dries up the webs."
The narrow path, set about with living green, with the spangly flowers, and between the branches fragments of the blue lift as clear as glass, led down the glen, widening now to hill and dale.

So she passed into the western road and through the trees to the bridge over the Wan Water. They stood so still in the moonlight!

On very tip-most top the lovely big surprise from foreign country. It wore dress of spangly stars and white. Big brown eyes and hair like rice-straw when sun shines through it. It held out welcome arms. Every move of tree give sway to body. I know trulier, but surely, it have look of real life. Teacher rolled tree to middle of room in bare spot, which made glad to have it.
