I Paradisets Have, under kundskabstræet, stod en rosenhæk; her, i den første rose, fødtes en fugl, dens flugt var som lysets, dejlig dens farve, herlig dens sang.
Men da Eva brød kundskabens frugt, da hun og Adam joges fra Paradisets Have, faldt fra straffeenglens flammesværd en gnist i fuglens rede og antændte den. Fuglen døde i flammerne, men fra det røde æg fløj en ny, den eneste, den altid eneste Fugl Føniks. Sagnet melder, at den bygger i Arabien, og hvert hundrede år brænder sig selv op i sin rede, og at en ny Føniks, den eneste i verden, flyver ud fra det røde æg.

In the Garden of Paradise, beneath the Tree of Knowledge, bloomed a rose bush. Here, in the first rose, a bird was born. His flight was like the flashing of light, his plumage was beauteous, and his song ravishing. But when Eve plucked the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, when she and Adam were driven from Paradise, there fell from the flaming sword of the cherub a spark into the nest of the bird, which blazed up forthwith. The bird perished in the flames; but from the red egg in the nest there fluttered aloft a new one– the one solitary Phoenix bird. The fable tells that he dwells in Arabia, and that every hundred years, he burns himself to death in his nest; but each time a new Phoenix, the only one in the world, rises up from the red egg.
This is how the fairy tale, The Phoenix bird, by HC Andersen begins. Now you have to find the fairy tale and answer some questions:
