18、 was so poor, and in winterwear very large wooden shoes, which made her little insteps quite red, andthat looked so dangerous! In the middle of the village lived old Dame Shoemaker; she sat and sewedtogether, as well as she could, a little pair of shoes out of old red stripsof cloth; they were very

19、clumsy, but it was a kind thought. They were meantfor the little girl. The little girl was called Karen. On the very day her mother was buried, Karen received the red shoes, and worethem for the first time. They were certainly not intended for mourning, butshe had no others, and with stockingless fe

20、et she followed the poor strawcoffin in them.Suddenly a large old carriage drove up, and a large old lady sat in it: shelooked at the little girl, felt compassion for her, and then said to theclergyman:"Here, give me the little girl. I will adopt her!"And Karen believed all this happened o

21、n account of the red shoes, but the oldlady thought they were horrible, and they were burnt. But Karen herself wascleanly and nicely dressed; she must learn to read and sew; and people saidshe was a nice little thing, but the looking-glass said: "Thou art more thannice, thou art beautiful!"

22、;Now the queen once travelled through the land, and she had her little daughterwith her. And this little daughter was a princess, and people streamed to thecastle, and Karen was there also, and the little princess stood in her finewhite dress, in a window, and let herself be stared at; she had neith

23、er atrain nor a golden crown, but splendid red morocco shoes. They were certainlyfar handsomer than those Dame Shoemaker had made for little Karen. Nothing inthe world can be compared with red shoes.Now Karen was old enough to be confirmed; she had new clothes and was to havenew shoes also. The rich

24、 shoemaker in the city took the measure of her littlefoot. This took place at his house, in his room; where stood largeglass-cases, filled with elegant shoes and brilliant boots. All this lookedcharming, but the old lady could not see well, and so had no pleasure in them. In the midst of the shoes s

25、tood a pair of red ones, just like those theprincess had worn. How beautiful they were! The shoemaker said also they hadbeen made for the child of a count, but had not fitted."That must be patent leather!" said the old lady. "They shine so!""Yes, they shine!" said Karen

26、, and they fitted, and were bought, but the oldlady knew nothing about their being red, else she would never have allowedKaren to have gone in red shoes to be confirmed. Yet such was the case.Everybody looked at her feet; and when she stepped through the chancel door onthe church pavement, it seemed

27、 to her as if the old figures on the tombs,those portraits of old preachers and preachers' wives, with stiff ruffs, andlong black dresses, fixed their eyes on her red shoes. And she thought only ofthem as the clergyman laid his hand upon her head, and spoke of the holybaptism, of the covenant wi

28、th God, and how she should be now a maturedChristian; and the organ pealed so solemnly; the sweet children's voices sang,and the old music-directors sang, but Karen only thought of her red shoes.In the afternoon, the old lady heard from everyone that the shoes had beenred, and she said that it w

29、as very wrong of Karen, that it was not at allbecoming, and that in future Karen should only go in black shoes to church,even when she should be older.The next Sunday there was the sacrament, and Karen looked at the black shoes,looked at the red ones-looked at them again, and put on the red shoes.Th

30、e sun shone gloriously; Karen and the old lady walked along the path throughthe corn; it was rather dusty there.At the church door stood an old soldier with a crutch, and with a wonderfullylong beard, which was more red than white, and he bowed to the ground, andasked the old lady whether he might dust her shoes. And Karen stretched outher little foot."See, what beautiful dancing shoes!" said the soldier. "Sit firm when youda
