Narrative text. The Tale_2
THE PRINCESS AND THE PEA
Once upon a time there was a prince who
wanted to marry a princess; but she would have to be a real princess. He
travelled all over the world to find one, but nowhere could he get what he
wanted. There were princesses enough, but it was difficult to find out whether
they were real ones. There was always something about them that was not as it
should be. So he came home again and was sad, for he would have liked very much
to have a real princess.
One evening a terrible storm came on;
there was thunder and lightning, and the rain poured down in torrents. Suddenly
a knocking was heard at the city gate, and the old king went to open it.
It was a princess standing out there in
front of the gate. But, good gracious! what a sight the rain and the wind had
made her look. The water ran down from her hair and clothes; it ran down into
the toes of her shoes and out again at the heels. And yet she said that she was
a real princess.
Well, we'll soon find that out, thought
the old queen. But she said nothing, went into the bed-room, took all the bedding
off the bedstead, and laid a pea on the bottom; then she took twenty mattresses
and laid them on the pea, and then twenty eider-down beds on top of the
mattresses.
On this the princess had to lie all
night. In the morning she was asked how she had slept.
"Oh, very badly!" said she.
"I have scarcely closed my eyes all night. Heaven only knows what was in
the bed, but I was lying on something hard, so that I am black and blue all
over my body. It's horrible!"
Now they knew that she was a real
princess because she had felt the pea right through the twenty mattresses and
the twenty eider-down beds.
Nobody but a real princess could be as sensitive as that.
So the prince took her
for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess; and the pea was put
in the museum, where it may still be seen, if no one has stolen it.
Narrative text. The Tale
CINDERELLA
Once
upon a time, there was a young girl named Cinderella. She lived with her step
mother and two step sisters.
The step mother and sisters were conceited and bad tempered. They treated Cinderella very badly. Her step mother made Cinderella do the hardest works in the house; such as scrubbing the floor, cleaning the pot and pan and preparing the food for the family. The two step sisters, on the other hand, did not work about the house. Their mother gave them many handsome dresses to wear.
One day, the two step sister received an invitation to the ball that the king’s son was going to give at the palace. They were excited about this and spent so much time choosing the dresses they would wear. At last, the day of the ball came, and away went the sisters to it. Cinderella could not help crying after they had left.
“Why are crying, Cinderella?” a voice asked. She looked up and saw her fairy godmother standing beside her, “because I want so much to go to the ball” said Cinderella. “Well” said the godmother,”you’ve been such a cheerful, hardworking, uncomplaining girl that I am going to see that you do go to the ball”.
Magically, the fairy godmother changed a pumpkin into a fine coach and mice into a coachman and two footmen. Her godmother tapped Cinderella’s raged dress with her wand, and it became a beautiful ball gown. Then she gave her a pair of pretty glass slippers. “Now, Cinderella”, she said; “You must leave before midnight”. Then away she drove in her beautiful coach.
Cinderella was having a wonderfully good time. She danced again and again with the king’s son. Suddenly the clock began to strike twelve, she ran toward the door as quickly as she could. In her hurry, one of her glass slipper was left behind.
A few days later, the king’ son proclaimed that he would marry the girl whose feet fitted the glass slipper. Her step sisters tried on the slipper but it was too small for them, no matter how hard they squeezed their toes into it. In the end, the king’s page let Cinderella try on the slipper. She stuck out her foot and the page slipped the slipper on. It fitted perfectly.
Finally, she was driven to the palace. The king’s son was overjoyed to see her again. They were married and live happily ever after.
