Every afternoon, as they were coming from school, the children used to go and play in the Giant's garden. It was a large lovely garden, with soft green grass. The birds sat on the trees and sang. One day the Giant came back after visiting his friend. When he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden. "What are you doing here?" he cried in a very gruff(粗哑) voice, and the children ran away.
"My own garden is my own garden," said the Giant, "I will allow nobody to play in it but myself. " So he built a high wall all round it, and put up a notice board—INVADER WILL BE ACCUSED.
Then the Spring came, and all over the country there were little blossoms and little birds. Only in the garden of the Giant it was still winter. The birds did not care to sing in it as there were no children, and the trees forgot to blossom.
The only people who were pleased were the Snow and the Frost. "Spring has forgotten this garden," they cried, "so we will live here all the year round. " The Snow covered up the grass with her great white cloak(披风), and the Frost painted all the trees silver. "I cannot understand why the Spring is so late in coming," said the Giant, as he sat at the window and looked out at his cold white garden.
The Spring never came, nor the Summer. It was always Winter there, and the Frost and the Snow danced about through the trees. One morning the Giant was lying awake in bed when he heard some lovely music. It sounded so sweet to his ears that he thought it must be the King's musicians passing by. It was really only a little linnet(红雀) singing outside his window, but it was so long since he had heard a bird sing in his garden that it seemed to him to be the most beautiful music in the world. "I believe the Spring has come at last," said the Giant and he jumped out of bed to have a look outside.
