Old alder-trees, whose roots were loosened from the banks,
clung with their fibres to the bottom of the stream, and the tops of the
branches above the water looked like little woody islands. The water-lilies
waved themselves to and fro on the river, everything made the excursion
beautiful, and at last they came to the great eel-weir, where the water rushed
through the flood-gates; and the children thought this a beautiful sight. In
those days there was no factory nor any town house, nothing but the great farm,
with its scanty-bearing fields, in which could be seen a few herd of cattle, and
one or two farm laborers.
In those days there was no factory nor any town
house, nothing but the great farm, with its scanty-bearing fields, in which
could be seen a few herd of cattle, and one or two farm laborers. The rushing of
the water through the sluices, and the scream of the wild ducks, were almost the
only signs of active life at Silkborg. After the firewood had been unloaded,
Christina's father bought a whole bundle of eels and a sucking-pig, which were
all placed in a basket in the stern of the boat.
Then they returned again
up the stream; and as the wind was favorable, two sails were hoisted, which
carried the boat on as well as if two horses had been harnessed to it. As they
sailed on, they came by chance to the place where the boatman's assistant lived,
at a little distance from the bank of the river. The boat was moored; and the
two men, after desiring the children to sit still, both went on shore. they
obeyed this order for a very short time, and then forgot it
altogether.
