Rosie's family had come through New York's Ellis Island in 1907 with

such high hopes. They knew, of course, that the streets weren't really

paved with gold, but they looked forward to new opportunities.

Opportunities did come, but along with them came hardships. Though

the city was exciting, it was also overwhelming. Work was hard to find,

and it sometimes seemed as if no one had time to help or even notice

the new arrivals. Still, Rosie got used to her new life, and even though

she missed her old friends, she made new ones who helped her

through many hard times.

Read the passage from the old Chinese fairy-tale "The Favorite of Fortune and the Child of Ill Luck.”

But the beggar found his fortune, and at length became emperor. He returned and stood before his wife. She however, no longer recognized him: She only knew that he was the powerful emperor.

He asked her how she were getting along.

"Why do you ask me how I am getting along?” she replied. "I am too far beneath your notice.”

"And who may your husband be?”

"My husband was a beggar. He went away to seek his fortune. That was eighteen years ago, and he has not yet returned.”

"And what have you done during all of those long years?”

"I have been waiting for him to return.”

"Do you wish to marry someone else, seeing that he has been missing for so long?”

"No, I will remain his wife until I die!”

When the emperor saw how faithful his wife was, he told her who he was, had her clothed in magnificent garments, and took her with him to his imperial palace.

With apple blossom in her hair

Who called me by my name and ran

And faded through the brightening air.

—“The Song of Wandering Aengus,”
William Butler Yeats
