of Undine, look you long and never so deep, no soul will look forth to
meet your gaze. Love, joy, sorrow, these are the pearls that shine in the eyes of every mortal. But in the eyes of the water maiden there is no gleam of love, no sparkle of joy, no tear of sorrow. Undine has come to earth to seek for a soul. Without one she may never know the golden gifts God has given to each mortal, gifts these of love, joy, sorrow. You will read in this little book how Undine, the water maiden, won for herself a human soul. MARY MACGREGOR. CONTENTS Chap. I. The Fisherman and the Knight II. Undine is Lost III. Undine is Found |
