Book used: The Bookshelf for Boys & Girls, Vol. 3: Folklore and Fairy Tales, published 1948

This piece is based on "Snow White". She lays in her glass case - a glass cocoon so to speak - surrounded by apple tree blossoms. The poison clouds her mind, slows her heart and dulls her dreams. Yet the heart still beats, sending out a message of help, which will arrive in the form of a kiss to heal her from the poison and allow her to live happily ever after.
