The Selfish Giant - The Sphinx Without a Secret - The Model Millionaire _{- The Nightingale and the Rose - İngilizce Hikayeler - A2 Stage 2}

“Be happy,” cried the Nightingale, “be happy; you shall have your red rose. I will build it out of music by moon-light, and stain it with my own heart's-blood. All that I ask of you in return is that you will be a true lover, for Love is wiser than Philosophy, though she is wise, and mighti-er than Power, though he is mighty. Flame- coloured are his wings, and coloured like flame is his body. His lips are sweet as honey, and his breath is like frankincense.”
