Jacob Grimm and Wilhelm Grimm, The Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm… (1909)
“ HERE was once a very old Man, so old that his eyes had become dim, and his limbs trembled. When he sat at table his hands shook so that he could hardly hold his spoon, and sometimes he spilt soup on the tablecloth. This vexed his son and daughter-in-law, and they would no longer let him have a place at the table, but made him sit in a corner by the stove. ”
