The swallow stayed the whole winter, and Thumbelina was kind to it and loved it very much. Neither the mole nor the field-mouse was told a word about it, for Thumbelina kne w they did not like birds. As soon as the spring came and the sun had warmed the earth, the swallow said good-bye to Thumbelina, who opened the hole which the mole had made in the ground. The sun th en shone in gloriously, and the swallow asked if she would not go with him; she could sit on his back and they would fly far out into the green wood. But Thumbelina knew that it would grieve the old field-mouse if she left her like that . "No, I cannot come," said Thumbelina. "Good-bye, good-bye! you good, pretty little girl!" said the swallow, and flew out into the warm sunshine. Thumbelina lo oked after it, and the tears came to her eyes, for she dearly loved the swallow. "Kwee-wit! Kwee-wit!" sang the bird, and flew away into the green wood. Thumbelina was very sorrowful.
