Better to die so than to end by being shamefully be- headed ! " He looked once more in the glass, and saw that the little old woman Death had shifted from the Tzar's head and was now standing at his feet. He picked up the glass and splashed the water over the Tzar, and there was the Tzar as well and healthy as ever he had been.
" You are my own true brother after all, " says the Tzar. " Let us go and feast to- gether. " But the soldier shook in all his limbs and could hardly stand, and he knew ...that his time was come. He prayed Death : " O Death, give me just one hour to say good-bye to my wife and my little son. " " Hurry up ! " says Death.
