| “Tell me the way, then,” she said, “and I’ll search you out” | 16 |
| And then she lay on a little green patch in the midst of the gloomy thick wood | 24 |

| And flitted away as far as they could from the Castle that lay East of the Sun and West of the Moon | 40 |

| The six brothers riding out to woo | 112 |
| “On that island stands a church; in that church is a well; in that well swims a duck” | 120 |
