"she lay asleep..."

she lay asleep in a pearl at the bottom of the sea. All round her grew beautiful Obelia seaweeds and thousands of rainbow-coloured fish guarded her night and day. There she lay for years and years, and while she slept a wonderful wisdom grew in her, though her little body remained the same. I can't tell you why or how, but it was so.
