The
building is the Warton Almshouse. Look! at the window there leans an old maid.
She plucks the withered leaf from the balsam, and looks at the grass-covered
rampart, on which many children are playing. What is the old maid thinking of? A
whole life drama is unfolding itself before her inward gaze. "The poor little
children, how happy they are- how merrily they play and romp together! What red
cheeks and what angels' eyes! but they have no shoes nor stockings. They dance
on the green rampart, just on the place where, according to the old story, the
ground always sank in, and where a sportive, frolicsome child had been lured by
means of flowers, toys and sweetmeats into an open grave ready dug for it, and
which was afterwards closed over the child; and from that moment, the old story
says, the ground gave way no longer, the mound remained firm and fast, and was
quickly covered with the green turf.

and the dewdrops on each blade of grass would be to them tears of
woe.
The little people who now play on that spot know nothing of the old

the dewdrops on each blade of grass would be to them tears of woe. Nor do they
know anything of the Danish King who here, in the face of the coming foe, took
an oath before all his trembling courtiers that he would hold out with the
citizens of his capital, and die here in his nest; they know nothing of the men
who have fought here, or of the women who from here have drenched with boiling
water the enemy, clad in white, and 'biding in the snow to surprise the city.
