A tiny spider crawled from the sac.

It was no bigger than a grain of sand,

Its body was grey with a black stripe underneath.

"Hello, there!" he said.
“喂，你们好！”它说。
The first spider said hello, but its voice was so small Wilbur couldn't hear it.

"I am an old friend of your mother's," said Wilbur.

"I'm glad to see you. Are you all right? Is everything all right?"

Is there anything you need?"
