Then Goldy told him what had happened and she said, “Go to the Gypsy and see how I can be changed back again.”
Then the prince went in a hurry to the Gypsy, you may believe. When the Gypsy heard him knock she cried as before,
“Cross-Patch, pull the latch,
Sit by the fire and spin;
Cross-Patch, pull the latch,
Open the door, come in!”
The prince opened the door and made his very best bow and said, “I wish Goldy were changed back into a beautiful girl and standing here beside me.”
The Gypsy nodded her head and soon a blue butterfly came floating in through the window. The Gypsy said a magic verse, and changed the butterfly back into the girl Goldy.
Then Goldy and the prince thanked the Gypsy. They were married at once, and they went to live in the king’s palace. They were not so happy as they had expected to be for Goldy cried all day, “I miss my sister Brownie. Go and find my ugly little sister.”
The prince went out to look for Brownie. He traveled high and low but he could not find her.
