The story of

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Once upon a time, in the middle of winter when the snow-flakes were falling like white feathers on the earth, a Queen sat sewing at a window framed in black ebony. And as she sewed and gazed out to the white landscape, she pricked her finger with the needle, and three drops of blood fell on the snow outside, and because the red showed out so well against the white she thought to herself:

"Oh! what wouldn't I give to have a child as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as ebony!"

And her wish was granted, for not long after a little daughter was born to her, with a skin as white as snow, lips and cheeks as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony. They called her Snow White, and not long after her birth the Queen died.

The Stepmother

Evil Queen

After a year, the King married again. His new wife was a beautiful woman, but so proud and overbearing that she couldn't stand any rival to her beauty. She possessed a magic mirror, and when she used to stand before it gazing at her own reflection and ask:

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who is the fairest of them all?"

It always replied:

"Thou, oh Queen, art the fairest of them all."

Then she was quite happy, for she knew the mirror always spoke the truth.

Snow White grows fairer

Snow White

But Snow White was growing prettier and prettier every day, and when she was seven years old she was as beautiful as she could be, and fairer even than the Queen herself.

One day when the Queen asked her mirror the usual question,

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who is the fairest of them all?"

It replied:

"My Lady Queen, you are fair, tis true,
But Snow White is fairer far than you."

Then the Queen flew into the most awful passion, and turned every shade of green in her jealousy. From this hour she hated poor Snow White like poison, and every day her envy, hatred, and malice grew, for envy and jealousy are like evil weeds which spring up and choke the heart.

Wicked Queen Orders Snow White Murdered

Evil Queen

At last the Queen could endure Snow White's presence no longer, and calling a huntsman to her, she said:

"Take Snow White out into the wood, and never let me see her face again. You must kill her, and bring me back her heart, that I may know for certain she is dead."

The Huntsman did as he was told and led Snow White out into the wood, but when he had drawn his knife, and was about to pierce Snow White's innocent heart, she began to weep, and said:

"Oh, dear Huntsman, spare my life, and I will promise to run away into the wide wood and never to return home again."

And because she was so young and pretty the Huntsman had pity on her, and said:

"Run away then, you poor child." For he thought to himself: "The wild beasts will soon eat her up."

And yet his heart felt lighter, because he hadn't had to do the deed himself.

And as he turned away a young boar came running past, so he stabbed it, and cut out its heart and took it home to the Queen as proof that Snow White was really dead. And the wicked Queen had it stewed with salt, and ate it, thinking she had made an end of Snow White for ever.

Snow White in the Woods

Now when poor Snow White found herself alone in the big woods the very trees around her seemed to assume strange shapes, and she felt so frightened she didn't know what to do. Then she began to run over the sharp stones, and through the bramble bushes, and the wild beasts ran past her, but they did her no harm.

She ran as far as her legs would carry her, and as evening approached she saw a little cottage, and she stepped inside to rest. Everything was very small in the little cottage, but cleaner and neater than anything you can imagine.

In the middle of the room there stood a little table, covered with a white tablecloth, and seven little plates and forks and spoons and knives and mugs. Side by side against the wall there were seven little beds, covered with snow white counterpanes.

Snow White felt so hungry and so thirsty that she ate a bit of bread from each plate, and drank a drop of wine out of each mug.

Then feeling tired and sleepy she lay down on one of the little beds, but it wasn't comfortable. Then she tried all the others in turn, but one was too long, and another too short, until at last she found that the seventh one was just right, so she lay down upon it, said her prayers like a good child, and fell fast asleep.

The Seven Dwarfs

When it got quite dark the masters of the little cottage returned. They were seven dwarfs who worked in the mines, right down deep in the heart of the hill. They lighted their seven little lamps, and as soon as their eyes got accustomed to the glare they saw that someone had been in the room, for all was not in the same order as they had left it.

The first said:

"Who's been sitting on my little chair?"

The second said:

"Who's been eating off my plate?"

The third said:

"Who's been picking at my bread?"

The fourth said:

"Who's been meddling with my spoon?"

The fifth said:

"Who's been using my little fork?"

The sixth said:

"Who's been cutting with my little knife?"

The seventh said:

"Who's been drinking my wine?"

Then the first Dwarf looked round and saw a little hollow in his bed, and he asked again:

"Who's been lying on my bed?"

The others came running round, and cried when they saw their beds:

"Somebody has been lying in my bed too."

But when the seventh dwarf came to his bed, he started back in amazement, for there he beheld Snow White fast asleep. Then he called the others, who turned their little lamps full on the bed, and when they saw Snow White lying there they nearly fell down with surprise.

"Goodness gracious!" they cried, "what a beautiful child!"

And they were so enchanted by her beauty that they did not wake her, but let her sleep on in the little bed. And the seventh Dwarf slept with his companions one hour in each bed, and in this way he managed to pass the night.

Snow White stays at the Dwarfs' cottage

In the morning Snow White awoke, and when she saw the seven little Dwarfs she felt very frightened. But they were so friendly and asked her what her name was in such a kind way, that she replied:

"I am Snow White."

"Why did you come to our cottage?" continued the Dwarfs.

Then she told them how her stepmother had wished her put to death, and how the Huntsman had spared her life, and how she had run the whole day till she had come to their little cottage. The Dwarfs, when they had heard her sad story, said:

"If you will take care of our cottage for us, cook, make the beds, do the washing, sew and knit, and if you will keep everything neat and clean, you can stay with us."

"Yes," answered Snow White, "I will gladly do all you ask."

A Warning

And so Snow White took up her abode with the dwarfs. Every morning the Dwarfs went into the hill to dig for gold, and in the evening, when they returned home, Snow White always had their supper ready for them.

But during the day, Snow White was quite alone, so the good Dwarfs warned her, saying:

"Beware of your step-mother, the Queen. She will soon find out you are here: whatever you do don't let anyone into the cottage."

Bewitched Laces

Now the Queen, after she thought she had eaten Snow White's heart, never dreamed but that she was once more the most beautiful woman in the world; so stepping before her mirror one day she said:

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who is the fairest of them all?"

and the mirror replied:

"My Lady Queen, you are fair, tis true,
But over the hills, in the greenwood shade,
Where seven dwarfs their home have made,
Lives Snow White, fairer far than you."

When the Queen heard these words she was nearly struck dumb with horror, for the mirror always spoke the truth, and she knew now that the Huntsman must have deceived her, and that Snow White was still alive. She pondered day and night how she might destroy Snow White, for as long as she felt she had a rival in the land her jealous heart left her no rest.

At last the Queen hit upon a plan. She stained her face and dressed herself up as an old peddler woman, so that she was quite unrecognisable. In this disguise she went over the seven hills till she came to the cottage of the seven Dwarfs.

There she knocked at the door, calling out at the same time:

"Fine wares to sell, fine wares to sell!"

Snow White peeped out of the window, and called out:

"Good-day, good woman, what have you to sell?"

"Good wares, fine wares," the woman answered; "stay-laces of every shade and description," and she held one up that was made of some bright coloured silk.

"Surely I can let the old woman in," thought Snow White; 'she seems to be a good woman".

So she ran down and unbolted the door.

"Good gracious, child," said the old woman, "how badly your stays are laced! Let me lace them up with one of my nice new laces."

Snow White, suspecting no evil, stood before her and let her lace her bodice up, but the old woman laced her so quickly and so tightly that it took Snow White's breath away, and she fell down as if she were dead.

"Now I am once again the fairest," said the wicked woman, and then she hastened away.

In the evening the seven Dwarfs came home, and you may think what a fright they got when they saw their dear Snow White lying on the floor, as if she were quite dead. They lifted her up tenderly, and when they saw how tightly laced she was, they cut the lace in two, and she began to breathe a little and gradually came back to life.

When the Dwarfs heard what had happened, they said:

"The old peddler woman must have been the wicked Queen herself: take care! You must be sure to let no one in, if we are not at home."

Poisonous Comb

As soon as the wicked Queen got home she went straight to her mirror, and said:

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who is the fairest of them all?"

and the mirror answered:

"My Lady Queen, you are fair, tis true,
But Snow White is fairer far than you,
Over the hills, where the seven dwarfs dwell,
Snow White is still alive and well"

When the Queen heard this, she became as pale as death, because she saw at once that Snow White must be alive again.

"This time," she said to herself, "I will think of something that will make an end of her once and for all."

And by the witchcraft which she understood so well, she made a poisonous comb; then she disguised herself as another old woman.

So she went over the seven hills till she reached the cottage of the seven Dwarfs, and knocking at the door she called out:

"Fine wares for sale."

Snow White looked out of the window and said:

"You must go away, for I dare not let anyone in."

"But surely you are not forbidden to look?"

said the old woman, and she held up the poisonous comb for her to see.

And it looked so pretty, that Snow White took it up and put it into her hair to try it; but the moment it touched her head, the poison was so powerful that she fell down senseless.

"Now, my fine lady, you're really done for this time,"

said the wicked woman, and she made her way home as fast as she could.

Fortunately it was now near evening, and the seven Dwarfs returned home. When they saw Snow White lying on the ground, they at once suspected that her wicked step-mother had been at work again; so they searched till they found the poisonous comb, and the moment they pulled it off her head, Snow White came to herself again, and told them what had happened.

Then they warned her once more to be on her guard, and to open the door to no one.

Poisoned Apple

As soon as the Queen got home she went straight to her mirror, and asked:

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who is the fairest of them all?"

and the mirror answered as before:

"My Lady Queen, you are fair, tis true,
But Snow White is fairer far than you,
Over the hills, where the seven dwarfs dwell,
Snow White is still alive and well"

When she heard these words she literally trembled and shook with rage.

"Snow White shall die!" she cried; "Yes, though it cost me my own life!"

Then she went into a secret chamber, which no one knew of but herself, and there she made a very poisonous apple. Outwardly it looked beautiful, rosy and tempting, so that everyone who saw it longed to eat it, but anyone who tasted it was sure to die on the spot.

When the apple was ready, she stained her face and dressed herself up as a peasant, and went over the seven hills to the seven Dwarfs" cottage. She knocked at the door, but Snow White put her head out of the window and called out:

"I may not let anyone in, the seven Dwarfs have forbidden me to do so."

"Do as you please," said the old woman, "but at any rate take this pretty apple; I will give it you."

"No," said Snow White, "I dare not take it."

"You silly girl!" answered the other, "what are you afraid of? Do you think it is poisoned? Come! Do you eat one half, and I will eat the other."

Now the apple was so made up that one side was good, though the other side was poisoned.

Snow White longed to eat the tempting fruit, and when she saw that the peasant woman was eating it herself, she couldn't resist the temptation any longer, and stretching out her hand she took the poisonous half. But hardly had the first bite passed her lips than she fell down dead on the ground.

Then the eyes of the cruel Queen sparkled with glee, and laughing aloud she cried:

"White as snow, red as blood, black as ebony,
This time, Snow White, none can save thee"

As soon as she got home she asked the mirror:

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who is the fairest of them all?"

and this time it replied:

"Thou, oh Queen, art the fairest of them all "

Then her jealous heart was at rest -- at least, as much at rest as a jealous heart can ever be.

Snow White's Coffin

When the little Dwarfs came home in the evening they found Snow White lying on the ground, and she neither breathed nor stirred. They lifted her up, and looked round everywhere to see if they could find anything poisonous about. They unlaced her bodice, combed her hair, washed her with water and wine, but all in vain; this time, she was dead and remained dead.

Then they placed her on a bier, and all the seven Dwarfs sat round it, weeping and sobbing for three whole days. At last they made up their minds to bury her, but her cheeks were still rosy; and her face looked just as it did while she was alive; so they said:

"We can't hide her away in the cold black ground."

So they had a coffin made of transparent glass, so that they might still look at her, and they laid her in it, and wrote on the lid in golden letters that she was a royal Princess.

Then they put the coffin on the top of the hill, and one of the Dwarfs always remained beside it and kept watch over it. And the very birds of the air came and bewailed Snow White's death, first an owl, and then a raven, and last of all a little dove.

Snow White lay a long time in the coffin, and she always looked the same, just as if she were fast asleep, and she remained as white as snow, as red as blood, and her hair as black as ebony.

The Prince sees Snow White


Love's First Kiss

Now it happened one day that a Prince came to the wood and passed by the Dwarfs' cottage. He saw the coffin on the hill, with the beautiful Snow White inside it, and when he had read what was written on it in golden letters, he said to the Dwarfs:

"Let me have the coffin. I'll pay you whatever you want for it."

But the Dwarfs answered:

"No; we wouldn't part with it for all the gold in the world."

"Well, then," he replied, "let me have it as a gift, because I can't live without seeing Snow White. I will cherish and love her as my dearest possession."

He spoke so sadly that the good Dwarfs had pity on him, and gave him the coffin.

Snow White marries her Prince

But the moment the Prince went to lift up the coffin to carry Snow White home with him, the piece of apple fell from between her lips. She gradually opened her eyes, lifted up the lid of the coffin, and sat up alive and well.

"Oh! heavens, where am I?" she cried.

The Prince answered joyfully, "You are with me," and he told her all that had happened, adding: "I love you better than anyone in the whole wide world. Will you come with me to my father's palace and be my wife?"

Snow White consented, and went home with the Prince, and their wedding was held with great pomp and splendour.

Now Snow White's wicked step-mother was one of the guests invited to the wedding feast. When she had dressed herself very gorgeously for the occasion, she went to the mirror, and said:

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who is the fairest of them all?"

and the mirror answered:

"Thou, lady, art loveliest here, I ween;
But lovelier far is the new-made queen."

When the wicked woman heard these words she uttered a curse, and was beside herself with rage and mortification, so wretched, so utterly wretched, that she knew not what to do. At first she would not go to the wedding at all, but her envy and curiosity were so great, that she could not help setting out to see the bride.

And when she got there, and saw that it was no other than Snow White, who she thought had been dead a long while, she choked with rage, and fell down and died.

But Snow White and the Prince lived and reigned happily over that land many, many years; and sometimes they went up into the hills, and paid a visit to the little Dwarfs, who had been so kind to Snow White in her time of need.

And they all lived happily ever after.
