Then the prince looked at her foot, and saw how the blood was flowing from the shoe, and staining the white stocking. And he turned his horse round and brought the false bride home again. "This is not the right one," said he, "have you no other daughter?" - "No," said the man, "only my dead wife left behind her a little stunted Cinderella; it is impossible that she can be the bride." But the King's son ordered her to be sent for, but the mother said, "Oh no! she is much too dirty, I could not let her be seen." But he would have her fetched, and so Cinderella had to appear. First she washed her face and hands quite clean, and went in and curtseyed to the prince, who held out to her the golden shoe. Then she sat down on a stool, drew her foot out of the heavy wooden shoe, and slipped it into the golden one, which fitted it perfectly. And when she stood up, and the prince looked in her face, he knew again the beautiful maiden that had danced with him, and he cried, "This is the right bride!" The step-mother and the two sisters were thunderstruck, and grew pale with anger; but he put Cinderella before him on his horse and rode off. And as they passed the hazel bush, the two white pigeons cried,

王子低头一看，发现血正从舞鞋里流出来，连她的白色长袜也浸红了，他拨转马头，同样把她送了回去，对她的父亲说："这不是真新娘，你还有女儿吗？"父亲回答说："没有了，只有我前妻生的一个叫灰姑娘的小邋遢女儿，她不可能是新娘的。"然而，王子一定要他把她带来试一试。 灰姑娘先把脸和手洗干净，然后走进来很有教养地向王子屈膝行礼。 王子把舞鞋拿给她穿，鞋子穿在她脚上就像是专门为她做的一样。 他走上前仔细看清楚她的脸后，认出了她，马上兴奋的说道："这才是我真正的新娘。"继母和她的两个姐妹大吃一惊，当王子把灰姑娘扶上马时，她们气得脸都发白了，眼睁睁地看着王子把她带走了。 他们来到榛树边时，小白鸽唱道：

Chapter 

12

"There they go, there they go!
No blood on her shoe;
The shoe's not too small,
The right bride is she after all."

And when they had thus cried, they came flying after and perched on Cinderella's shoulders, one on the right, the other on the left, and so remained.

And when her wedding with the prince was appointed to be held the false sisters came, hoping to curry favour, and to take part in the festivities. So as the bridal procession went to the church, the eldest walked on the right side and the younger on the left, and the pigeons picked out an eye of each of them. And as they returned the elder was on the left side and the younger on the right, and the pigeons picked out the other eye of each of them. And so they were condemned to go blind for the rest of their days because of their wickedness and falsehood.

"回家吧！回家吧！
快看那只鞋！
王妃！ 这是为你做的鞋！
王子！ 王子！
快带新娘回家去，
坐在你身边的才是真正的新娘"
鸽子唱完之后，飞上前来，一只停在了她的左肩，一只停在了她的右肩。

当她和王子的婚礼举办时，他们指定让假冒的姐姐也过来参加典礼并助兴。当这一对新人走向教堂时，他们中大的那位走在右边，小的那位走在左边，而鸽子把他们各自的一只眼啄去。当他们返程时，大的那位走在左边，而小的那位走在右边，鸽子又再把她们各自的另一只眼啄去。因为他们的邪恶和坏心肠，她们的余生都将在失明中度过了。
