Towards morning, when Snow White woke up and saw the seven dwarfs, Snow White
becomes frightened, but they look friendly and even asked his name and how he
could have arrived at their home. Snow also tells how his mother hoped that he
died, how the hunter spared her life, how she ran all day, till it came to

the hunter had been tricked, and Snow White is still alive. He also thinks hard
to kill Princess Salu, as long as he is not the most beautiful woman among all,
jealousy will not be able to make it to rest in peace. Finally he was getting a
plan, he disguises his face and wearing clothing worn by older women so that no
one could recognize him. In disguise, he went through seven mountains to
finally arrive at the house belonging to the seven dwarfs. He knocked on the
door and said:
"Good stuff for sale! Great stuff for sale!"
Snow peering out the window and said:
"Good afternoon, what are you selling?"
"Good stuff," he said, "Ribbon assorted colors" and he then
handed a tape made of silk.
"I do not need to be afraid to let this old lady come in," thought

"Now it's time for you to stop as the most beautiful woman," said the
old woman as she passed away.
Not long after that, towards evening, the dwarfs came home, and they were all
surprised to see Salu daughter lying on the ground, not moving; they picked it
up and when they saw the tape wrapped around the neck of Snow White, they cut
it and then Snow breathing again. When the dwarf heard the story of Snow White,
they said,
"The old woman who became a vendor, it must be none other than the evil
queen, you must be careful when we are not here!"
When the evil queen arrives at the house and asked the Mirror:
"Mirror on the wall, Who is the prettiest among all?"
The answer is the same as before, "Queen, although almost incomparable
beauty, Snow White who lives in a small house along with the seven dwarves, a
thousand times more beautiful."
Upon hearing the answer, he became surprised to know that Snow White is still
alive.
"Now, I have to think of other ways to destroy Snow White." And with
his magic, he made a comb containing toxins. Then he disguised himself as an
old woman to another. Then go across the seven mountains and came to the house
of the seven dwarfs. He knocked on the door and said,
"Good stuff for sale! Great stuff for sale!"
Snow White looked out and said,
"Go away, I'm not going to let anyone in."
"But you are not forbidden to look," said the old woman, taking out
the poisoned comb and holding it. The comb is very tempting Snow White so she finally
opened the door and buy a comb it, and then the old woman said:
"Now, your hair should be combed properly."
Snow poor do not think that there mara-danger, let the woman combing her hair,
and shortly thereafter, comb the poison began to work and Snow also fell
helplessly.
"This is the end for you," said the old woman as she passed.
Fortunately it was almost evening and the dwarves go home shortly after the
incident. When they saw Snow White lying on the ground as dead, they
immediately think that this is an act of evil stepmother. Eventually they pull
a comb hair still attached in Snow White and the time and even then Snow White
woke up, then tell all the events that happened. The dwarves warned him to be
careful again and never let people in.
When the queen arrived at the house, he stood in front of the mirror and say,
"Mirror on the wall, Who is the prettiest among all?"
The answer is the same as before, "Queen, although almost incomparable
beauty, Snow White who lives in a small house along with the seven dwarves, a
thousand times more beautiful."

with anger, "Snow White must die, though I also have to die!" Then he
went into the secret room and there he made a poison apple. Apple beautiful and
seductive, white and red. Anyone who saw it and anyone tempted to eat it though
slight, would die of poisoning. When the apple was ready, he was disguised back
and dressed like a peasant woman, and then he crossed the seven mountains where
the seven dwarfs lived. And when he knocked on the door, Snow poked her head
through the window and said,
"I dare not let anyone in, the seven dwarfs have banned me."
"All right," said the woman, "I just want to give an apple to
you."
"No," said Snow White, "I dare not take anything."
"Are you afraid of poison?" asked the woman, "behold, I will
divide it into two parts apple, you will get a piece of red, white and my

happy.
The dwarfs, when I got home at
night, found Snow White lying on the ground, and no longer breath coming out of
his nose. They picked it up, looking for the poison to kill Snow White, ribbon
cutting, combing her hair, wash it with water and wine, but all in vain, the
poor daughter had died. They finally put Snow White in a crate, and they all
sat down together, weeping for his death for three full days. Although died,
Princess snow looks as if still living with her cheeks flushed. The dwarf then
said,
"We're not going to bury
it in the dark ground." Then they made a coffin made of clear glass so
that they can see Snow White from all sides. Snow was laid in the coffin, and
in the chest then wrote the name Snow White with gold lettering, along with the
story that she was the daughter of a king. Then they put the coffin on the
mountain, and one of them always stay to watch. Birds come to visit and sorry,

For some time, Snow White lying on the glass coffin and never changed, it looks
as though sleeping. He was still as white as snow, as red as blood, and hair black
as ebony. Once a prince through the forest that leads to the house elf. When he
saw the crate on top of the mountain along the beautiful Snow White in it, he
became enamored, and after he read the writings on the chest. He said to the
dwarfs,
"Let me have the coffin along with Snow this, I will give you whatever you
ask."
But the dwarf refused and said that they did not want to part with Snow
although paid with gold in the whole world. But the prince said,
"I asked him so much, because I can not live without seeing Snow White; If
you agree, I will immediately take all of you and consider you like a
brother."

crates, down and stand in a healthy state-fiddle.
"Oh, where I was?" he asked. The Prince immediately answered with a
cheerful heart, "You are safe around me," and tell me everything that
