so the swallow flew over the great city , and saw the rich making merry in their beautiful houses , while the beggars were sitting at the gates . he flew into dark lanes , and saw the white faces of starving children looking out listlessly at the black streets . under the archway of a bridge two little boys were lying in one another 's arms to try and keep themselves warm . " how hungry we are ! " they said . " you must not lie here , " shouted the watchman , and they wandered out into the rain . then he flew back and told the prince what he had seen . " i am covered with fine gold , " said the prince , " you must take it off , leaf by leaf , and give it to my poor ; the living always think that gold can make them happy . "
he told the swallow to give his gold feathers to the poor .
how did the happy prince plan to help the poor ?
