'The Marine Life of The Little Mermaid' (words), Paragraph fringe.
'We sometimes live to three hundred years, but when we cease to exist
here we only become the foam on the surface of the water, and we have
not even a grave down here of those we love. We have not immortal souls,
we shall never live again; but, like the green sea-weed, when once it
has been cut off, we can never flourish more.'
The Little Mermaid 'The Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen' (Translated by H. P. Paull) 1872
