The Glass Box
When Hans meets an old woman and tells her he wants
money, she shows him how to get money, gold and
jewels in return for a glass box. However, because she is
impatient, he does not give her the glass box but keeps it
for himself. He learns how to use the glass box to summon
one of three large dogs that ensure he will never be poor
again. Later, he uses the magic powers of the box to help
him to meet Princess Anna, who has been imprisoned
by her unhappy father. He uses it again to save himself
when he is sentenced to death for trying to woo the young
woman. Even the old king is happy when Hans and Anna
marry and become the new king and queen.
