The Firebird (9) [The firebird]
The Firebirad (9)
Ivan slipped into the stable.
He was just about to leave with the horse with the golden mane when he saw the reins hanging on the wall.
The temptation to take them was so strong that once again he disobeyed the wolf.
He took down the reins and immediately there was a deafening noise that woke up the guards.
They seized Ivan and brought him to king Afron who was very angry and asked,
" What country are you from ? Who is your father and what is your name ? "
" I am the son of Tsar Vislav and my name is Ivan, " replied the miserable youth.
" Young prince, " said King Afron.
" Does it suit a royal warrior to do what you have done ? If you had come to ask me, I would have been honored to give you the horse with the golden mane. Instead you steal from me ! If I were to spread the word in all the kingdoms about your behavior, what would they think of you ? "
" Now listen, Prince Ivan ! If you carry out the task I set you, I will forgive you and give you both the horse with the golden mane and the golden reins."
