once, twice, thrice, with her crystal wand.

The Lady Elder came out of her tree and smiled upon the flowers.

them back to their little warm beds and covered them up with their
sparkling white coverlets.

And then all the White Ladies climbed on their moonbeam and glided
softly up, up, up, into Fairyland.
