The Princess and the Pea

A young prince wants to marry. He travels here and there, visits a lot of places but there is no girl he would like to have for his wife. So he is very sad. He can't meet a true [tru:] princess.

One dark night the weather is very bad. It is windy and rainy. The king, queen and the prince are in their warm and cosy castle. They are waiting for their dinner. Suddenly they see a young girl at the door of the castle. The girl is cold, water is running down her face.

"Good evening," says the girl. "Can I, please, come in? I am so cold."

"What is your name, young lady ['leıdıl]?" asks the king.

"I am Fran," she answers. "My father is King Helmut."

"Then you are a princess?" asks the queen.

"A true princess," answers the girl.

She has dinner with the family and they see how good she is and like her manners ['mænəz] very much.

The prince begins to think she is the best girl in the world [w3:ld].

"But is she a true princess?" thinks the queen. She wants to know it. The queen puts twenty mattresses ['mætrısız] on Fran's bed and under twenty mattresses she puts a small pea.

In the morning the queen sits at the breakfast table with the king and the prince. Fran comes to the table too. She doesn't look very good.

"What's the matter, child?" asks the king.

"It was a very bad night," answers the girl. "I didn't sleep at all. My bed was not comfortable."

The queen is very happy. Now she knows that Fran is a true princess.

"I'd like to talk to you," she says to her son. "Fran is a true princess. Only ['oʊnlɪ] true princesses can be so delicate ['delıkət]. There were twenty mattresses on her bed. A small pea was under them. And the princess couldn't sleep at all! Fran can be your wife!"

Now the prince is the happiest man in the world. "Will you marry me?" he asks Fran. She says "yes." Now they are husband and wife.
