Midvinternattens köld är hård, stjärnorna gnistra och glimma. Alla sova i enslig gård djupt under midnattstimma. Månen vandrar sin tysta ban, snön lyser vit på fur och gran, snön lyser vit på taken. Endast tomten är vaken.
Skarsnön låg skinande öfver heden, där man, så stor hon var, såg bara en enda människoboning, och det var en liten stuga, gammal och grå.
