A fine house was built on Clingham land, with large windows, and smooth white walls; but before it, where the old house had in fact stood, was a little garden laid out, and a wild grapevine ran up the wall of the neighbouring house.

Before the garden there was a large iron railing with an iron door, it looked quite splendid, and people stood still and peeped in.

Modified text originally written by Hans Christian Andersen – "The Old House" 1848
