Just as her sister had done, she found herself in a beautiful meadow. She walked for some distance along the same path till she came to the baker's oven. She heard the loaves cry, "Pull us out, pull us out! or we shall burn ; we have been so long baking ! " But the idle girl answered, "No, indeed, I have no wish to soil my hands with your dirty oven *" and so she walked on till she came to the apple tree.
