that one thing was that there was one room in the castle -- a room which stood at the end of a passage by itself -- which she could never enter , as her husband always carried the key . and as , when she asked him the reason of this , he always made an excuse of some kind . she made up her mind that she would not seem as if she did not trust him , so she asked no more questions about the matter . but one day the prince chanced to leave the door unlocked . as he had never told her not to do so , she went in . there she saw princess gold - tree lying on the silken couch , looking as if she were asleep . " is she dead , or is she only sleeping ? " she said to herself . she went up to the couch and looked closely at the princess . and there , sticking in her little finger , she discovered a curiously shaped needle . " there hath been evil work here , " she thought to herself . " if that needle be not poisoned , then i know naught of medicine . " and , being skilled in leechcraft , she drew it carefully out .

there is a lone moor in scotland , which , in times past , was said to be haunted by an elfin knight . this knight was only seen at rare intervals , once in every seven years or so , but the fear of him lay on all the country round , for every now and then someone would set out to cross the moor and would never be heard of again . and although men might search every inch of the ground , no trace of him would be found , and with a thrill of horror the searching party would go home again , shaking their heads and whispering to one another that he had fallen into the hands of the dreaded knight . so , as a rule , the moor was deserted , for nobody dare pass that way , much less live there ; and by and by it became the haunt of all sorts of wild animals , which made their lairs there , as they found that they never were disturbed by mortal huntsmen . now in that same region lived two young earls , earl st . clair and earl gregory , who were such friends that they rode , and hunted , and fought together , if need be .
