Note 1 — The Glass Princess

H. (Henry) Parker translation

The old woman said, “O son, they call her the Glass Princess. The bed on which the Princess sleeps is a bed of glass throughout. Glass is fixed all round the bed in such a manner that even the wind cannot get to her.1 Because of that, they say that she is the Glass Princess.”
