En algunos días escogidos, al acecho, el audaz, aconsejado por su bruja, podía dar el golpe esperado: modificar la bebida y mezclar a ella el filtro. Esto era, de todos modos, algo raro y peligroso. Lo más fácil era robar a la dama alguno de los objetos que se le escapaban, objetos que ella descuidaba. Se recogía así, preciosamente, un fragmento imperceptible de uña. Se recogía con respeto lo que dejaba caer su peine: uno o dos de sus hermosos cabellos.
then, on some day chosen for the purpose, after careful observation, the bold pretender, acting on the Witch's suggestion, could strike his blow with every hope of success, drugging the posset and slipping the love-potion in the cup. Still, it was at best a rare and perilous undertaking. A far easier course was to filch some trifle the fair lady would never miss or give a thought to,—to gather with scrupulous care the almost invisible parings of a nail, to collect reverently the combings of her hair, a strand or two from her lovely head.
