The Truthful Shepherd (7 完) [The Truthful Shepherd]

The Truthful Shepherd (7 完)

" She is sitting there, between you and the king of Prussia," said the shepherd, " her hands in her long dark hair."

The princess looked down, as if ashamed of her trick.

King Matyas laughed.
" You have told the truth, " he said.
" For that I will give you the half of the kingdom I have just won from my good friend here. "

The king of Prussia laughed, too.
" And I will add to that portion my daughter in marriage, seeing that you are already promised, one to the other. "

" Papa ! " cried his daughter,  but she was secretly glad, remembering the kisses of the night before.

Outside, the sun and moon danced in the sky together.

And believe it or not, that is how a Magyar became a Prussia, how a shepherd became a prince, and how truth became the order of the day.

And when the shepherd was finally king, he ruled with honesty and fairness all his life long.

(7/7 完)
