everyone loved the dear old King Ar

his fair daughter to his bedside and
laying his withered hand on her sunny
curls, said:

succeed with her to the throne.

the palace lived boy who had TO
spend his days attending to his fathers
goats. His days were passed far up
among the rocks of the mountains,
with the animals, and he saw but few
people. This made him so bashful that
many people thought him foolish and
all called him simpleton. SO Simple
he was called throughout the
And even his own par
ents finally concluded that the lad was
foolish, he kept so silent. But when
he heard of the Kings proclamation he
said to his father that he would go
to court among the other suitors and
try his fortune.
