- The Happy Prince. High above the city, on a tall column, stood the statue of the Happy Prince. He was gilded all over with thin leaves of fine gold, for eyes he had two bright sapphires, and a large red ruby glowed on his sword-hilt.
- The Nightingale and the Rose. “She said that she would dance with me if I brought her red roses,” cried the young Student; “but in all my garden there is no red rose.”
