he should go a-hunting?"
However, they all set out for the hunt,

tigers, and told his tigers and hounds to

turned home to the town, and went to
The King, their father-in-law, to present |
their game.
Now that King had no son. Then the
new prince told him that in fact he.
.oD, was prince. At this the King, his
father-n-law, was greatly delighted and
