Description: Writing blank entitled Cinderella or The little glass slipper; After this poor girl had done her work, her mother in law would tell her, she might sit among the cinders black, and call'd her Cinderella; These are Cinderella's sisters in law; dressing for the ball, but though they dress'd as fine as queen's They had no sense at all; This is the King's fine gallant son, young handsome straight & tall. He invited all the ladies round to dance at his fine ball; Behold the little fairy, changing Cinderella's clothes. And when this was done to the Prince's ball she goes. But if she staid past 12 o'clock tho' but one minute more, Her dress & equipage would change to what they were before; See Cinderella with the Prince, dancing at the ball. Though all were dress'd so gay & grand, she did outshine them all; [N]ow see her clothes all changed to rags, that [la]tely were so fine. So pleas'd in dancing with the Prince, she stay'd quite past [h]er time. Ane in her haste to get away, [o]ne of her slippers fell; Now the Prince says to his Herald, I'lll have this loudly cried, Whoever owns this slipper shall be my loveing bride; Now the Herald with the slipper Is come to Cinderella, She says dear sir 'tis mine, See here I have the fellow; This coach was once a pumpkin, by the fairy chang'd from that. The footmen once were lizards green, The coachman once a rat. The horses too were six small mice; chang'd by the fairy's wand. And Cinderella's rags to robes, the richest in the land; Behold she's wedded to the Prince And it is understood; As they were the richest in the L[and] So there was none so good; Cinderella or The little glass slipper: Little glass slipper
