When Tom had said good-bye to his Father, they went away with him

‘There as a dread Dragon he sojourns, and in a cave keeps watch over Alberich’s ring

She sate down and plaited herself an overall of rushes and a cap to match

‘Siegmund the Walsung, thou dost see! As bride-gift he brings thee this sword’

The Flea and the Man

Raging, Wotan Rides to the rock, like a storm-wind he comes!

The Oak and the Reeds

Fafner kills Fasolt

The Green Dragon

The fisherman and his wife had no children, and they were just longing for a baby

The Frogs and the Well

They thanked her and said good-bye, and she went on her journey

The Quack Frog

The Moon and her Mother

Or a screech owl

Mime writhes under the lashes he receives

Mr. and Mrs. Vinegar at home

And that is the story of Mr. and Mrs. Vinegar

‘I flee for the first time and am pursued; Warfather follows close…

The Two Pots

Alberich drives in a band of Niblungs laden with gold and silver treasure

Freia, the fair one
