when, however, she had sat there for a while, a white dove came flying to her with a little golden key in its mouth. it put the little key in her hand, and said, "dost thou see that great tree, therein is a little lock, it opens with the tiny key, and there thou wilt find food enough, and suffer no more hunger." then she went to the tree and opened it, and found milk in a little dish, and white bread to break into it, so that she could eat her fill. when she was satisfied, she said, "it is now the time when the hens at home go to roost, i am so tired i could go to bed too." then the dove flew to her again, and brought another golden key in its bill, and said, "open that tree there, and thou willt find a bed." so she opened it, and found a beautiful white bed, and she prayed god to protect her during the night, and lay down and slept. in the morning the dove came for the third time, and again brought a little key, and said, "open that tree there, and thou wilt find clothes." and when she opened it, she found garments beset with gold and with jewels, more splendid than those of any king’s daughter. so she lived there for some time, and the dove came every day and provided her with all she needed, and it was a quiet good life.
