Fair, Brown, and Trembling (Three daughters) (1)

Fair, Brown, and Trembling (Three daughters)(1)

Long long ago, there lived King Hugh Curucha who had three daughters.

Fair and Brown were his favorite daughters.
They were given new dresses and allowed to go to church every Sunday.

But Trembling, the most beautiful of the three, had to stay at home to do the cooking and housework.

The other two forced Trembling to do this because they were jealous of her beauty, and feared that she might attract a husband before them.

After Trembling had been kept at home for seven years, the Prince of Emania fell in love with Fair, the oldest of the sisters.

One Sunday, Fair and Brown went off to church as usual, leaving Trembling to cook dinner.

As she worked, she talked to the old Henwife, who kept the chickens on the royal farm.
" Why haven't you gone to church too, " asked the Henwife.

" I cannot go to church, " replied Trembling.
" All my clothes are in tatters. I dare not go to church, my sisters would beat me for leaving the house. "
