The Wise Woman by George MacDonald is a classic novel that tells the story of a young princess named Rosamond who is spoiled, selfish, and ungrateful. One day, she is transported to a magical realm where she meets a wise woman who teaches her valuable life lessons through a series of trials and challenges. As Rosamond learns to become more humble and compassionate, she begins to see the world in a new light and discovers the true meaning of love and happiness. Along the way, she encounters a cast of memorable characters, including a mischievous sprite, a brave knight, and a wise old king. With its enchanting storyline and timeless themes, The Wise Woman is a must-read for anyone who loves classic literature and fairy tales.The wise woman lifted the princess tenderly, and washed and dressed her far more carefully than even her nurse. Then she set her down by the fire, and prepared her breakfast. She was very hungry, and the bread and milk as good as it could be, so that she thought she had never in her life eaten anything nicer. Nevertheless, as soon as she began to have enough, she said to herself.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
