Capitolo 25
how much will it rotate in one day?"
"Twelve", says the Delicate child.
"Primrose, where Violet Island does it lie?"
"In the Lake of Ripples."
"Lilac, you can limit Rose Terra."
"On the north of Ferndale, south of Wave River Exposed to the sun, east from the hill
in the morning Clouds and west of the evening Stella."
"Now, the small one", it said the teacher, "you can go to Your painting,
what our visitor can see how we mend the flowers that terrestrial hands
you/he/she has hurt."
Then Eva saw how, on great, white leaves, the Fairies learned to

among the hills, some to the sea-side to look above of the humble fisherman

for the Elves from the tender heart that you/they left their his/her own happy house to console
and he/she comforts those that you/they never knew what hands had dressed and you/they had fed them,
what hearts had given of their his/her own joy, and it brought such happiness
