TRANSLATION

" Tom," said one day Maggie to her brother, " Luna must hâve (qu'elle ait) her horse, as I hâve mine."...

" To-morro\v," said Tom, " we will go to the north prairie, where the horses are at this moment"...

" Thank you, Tom, I shall love my little horse, as Maggie loves ' Firefly.' "...

Luna vvhile (tout en) pitying the horse destined for her, admired him and felt very happy. . .

He would be hers (à elle), hers only. She said to herself: " I will call him ' Snovvflake,' for he is white as the mountain snow "...

Maggie found her horse ' Firefly ' the prettier animal, and this brought about endless discussions...

At first, the white horse was kept (on avait tenu) in the stable, then in a paddock, finally he was let loose in the field . . . He did net go far and came obediently when called.
