17. Again the queen looked in her mirror, and said, 'Who is the fairest in the land?' But it answered as before.
18. 'Snow White shall die!' cried the queen, 'even if it should cost me my life!'
19. Then the queen went into a secret room, and with her craft created a poisonous apple.
20. The apple was white and red, so enticing that whoever looked at it yearned for it.
21. Snow White longed for the apple, and soon she could not resist.
22. No sooner had Snow White eaten the apple then she fell down, still as death.
23. When the little men found Snow White lying as if dead, they called her name, combed her hair, washed her with water and wine, to no avail. She would not wake.
24. Snow White lay, still as death, and nothing could be done for her.
25. But she was still black as night and white as snow, and she lay in her bed, her cheeks as red as they had been in life, though she did not move or stir.
