Peri voltou trazendo uma linda flor silvestre que encontrara no jardim; era uma parasita aveludada, de lindo escarlate. A menina prendeu a flor nos cabelos, satisfeita por ter cumprido um inocente desejo de Peri, que só vivia para cumprir os seus; e dirigiu-se ao quarto de sua prima, ocultando no seio a caixinha de veludo.
Peri came back bringing a lovely wild flower he had found in the garden; it was a velvety parasite of beautiful scarlet. The girl fastened the flower in her hair, pleased to have fulfilled an innocent wish of Peri, who lived only to fulfill hers; and she went to her cousin's room, hiding the little velvet box in her bosom.
