_Julia Burket_
Snyge, the woodsman, walked briskly through the gates of the park which / surrounded the royal palace. On his arm hung a small basket covered / with a white cloth. In the basket were some cranberry tarts which / his wife was sending to her aunt, an old woman who stirred the royal / soup-kettle.[26]
