Folktales

The Lady of Lagow Castle

I think this is a myth because it contains features of a folktale such as peasants and commonplace events, it also explains how something happened. It contains a beheading, which at the time was very normal.

Fairy Tale

The Glass Mountain

I think this is definitely a fairy tale because it contains magical objects and magical events. One of the magical objects is the mountain itself and the golden castle. The princess was also enchanted with beauty.

Fables

The Little Fish and the PikeEdit

Espying a worm in the water, the little fish
Did greatly regret the worm could not become his dish.
Up came a pike and made his preparations to dine;
He swallowed both worm and hook, which he failed to divine.
As the angler pulled ashore his magnificent prize,
Quoth the little fish: "Sometimes good to be undersize."

Parable

The Master and His DogEdit

The dog barked all the night, keeping the burglar away;
It got a beating for waking the master, next day.
That night it slept soundly and did the burglar no harm;
He burgled; the dog got caned for not raising alarm.
