THE
FROG PRINCE Once upon a time, there lived a King in a big palace. He had a very beautiful daughter who spent hours playing with her golden ball. One day, while she was playing, he golden ball rolled and fell into a dirty pond near the garden. The little princess started weeping. An ugly Frog popped out of the water and asked her "What is the matter? Why are you crying?" She Replied, "My favorite Ball has dropped into the water and I want it back." The Frog said, "Do not cry. I will help you but tell me, what will you give me?" The Princess badly wanted the ball back and so she said, "I will give you anything you ask for". The Frog dived down and within seconds, he was out again with the golden ball. The princess was very happy. Now came the time to keep the promise. The Frog said, "I wish to be your friend. I wish to eat, drink, sleep with you in your beautiful Palace." The Princess ran away with the ball promising the Frog to be his friend. Days passed by and the little Princess soon forgot about her promise. One day, the Frog came to the Palace and asked for the Princess. "Be off, you ugly Frog", said the Princess. I don't want to see you. The King asked her about the Frog. She told him about the promise to the King. The King said, "You must keep your promise if you have made". Thus, the Frog stayed in the palace. He at from the Princess's plate, drank from her glass. The Princess got very annoyed with the Frog. She did not eat for the whole day. Then, the Frog said, "I am very tired. Let us go to the Bed room." He climbed up into her bed to sleep. The Princess lost her control and angrily picked up the ugly Frog and threw him with a bang on the floor. To her surprise, a handsome young man sprang up stunning her. He told her that he was in fact, a King of a distant Country whom a wicked witch had mad him an ugly Frog. Only if a Princess allowed him to eat, drink and sleep with her, he would be back to be a King again. The witch's spell was broken. The King and the Princess married and they lived happily ever after. |
