The Frog Prince (4) 完
At last the frog said, " Now I am ready to go to sleep. Carry me to your bedroom. And put me on your fine silk pillow. "
The princess began to cry.
" Stop crying, " said the King.
" Do as the frog says. You made a promise, and you must keep it ! "
And so the princess had to carry the frog to her bedroom. She took hold of him with two fingers, and she put him in a corner of her bedroom.
But the frog said, " I am tired. I want to go to sleep on a fine bed, just like you. Put me on your silk pillow, or I will tell your father. "
That made the princess very angry.
She picked up the frog, and she threw him against the wall !
But when he fell to the floor, the frog was no longer a frog.
Now he was a tall prince with beautiful, kind eyes. And he was smiling at the princess.
" A wicked witch turned me into a frog, he said. " But now the spell is broken ! I'm returned to Prince."
The very next day the prince and the princess were married.
A golden coach with eight white horses drove up to the castle.
The prince now took the princess to his own land.
And they lived there happily forever after.
