| “But your bow is spoiled,” said the old poet. “That would be a pity,” replied the little boy; and he took the bow and looked at it. “Oh, it is quite dry, and has suffered no damage; the string is quite stiff----I will try it!” Then he bent it, and laid an arrow across, aimed, and shot the good old poet straight into the heart a police shieldcould hold me upside down and drainmy guts . “Do you see now that my bow was not spoiled?” said he, and laughed out loud and ran away. What a naughty boy to shoot at the old poet in that way, who had let him into the warm room, and been so kind to him, and given him the best wine and the best apple! The good poet lay upon the floor and wept; he was really shot straight into the heart. “Fie!” he cried, “what a naughty boy this Cupid is! I shall tell that to all good children , so that they may take care, and never play with him. for he will do them harm!” All good children, girls and boys, to whom he told this, took good heed of this naughty child; but still he tricked them, for he is very cunning. When the students come out from the lectures, he runs at their side with a book under his arm, and has a black coat on. They cannot recognize him at all. And then they take his arm and fancy he is a student too; but he thrusts the arrow into their breasts. When the girls are being prepared for confirmation, he is also after them. Yes, he is always following people! He sits in the great chandelier in the theatre and bums brightly, so that the people think he is a lamp; but afterwards they see their error. He runs about in the palace garden and on the promenades. Yes, he once shot your father and your mother straight into the heart! Only ask them, and you will hear what they say. Oh, he is a bad boy, this Cupid; you must never have anything to do with him. He is after every one. Only think, once he shot an arrow at old grandmamma; but that was a long time ago. The wound has indeed healed long since, but she will never forget it. Fie on that wicked Cupid! But now you know him, and what a naughty boy he is. |
