Seven Dwarfs found her, and they felt very sad. They couldn't bury. So they put into Snow White the coffin and watched her.
One year passed. A prince visited there. He saw the Snow White, he fell in love. He said that he would like to really take her. Seven Dwarfs agreed with him. His servant carried the coffin. Then, the servant stumbled, and the piece of the poison apple came from Snow White's mouth. She revived. The prince was very glad. He opened the coffin, and he proposed to Snow White.
