Here, however, was an obstacle in the way. The moon, which was shining high in the south, threw the shadow of the steeple straight across the street from one side to the other; and the merry ladies being no more clear-sighted than they were clear-headed, mistook this for a broad and rapid stream, which they were obliged to cross before proceeding on their way. Thus deluded, they sat down on the brink of the imaginary water, de- liberately took off their shoes and stockings, tucked skirts under ...arms, and waded through to the opposite side. The perilous passage having been accomplished in safety, they, resuming shoes and stockings, passed on gaily as before.
