The Nightingale (10) [The Nightingale]
The Nightingale (10)
The Nightingale had to stay at Court now ; she had her own cage, and permission to walk out twice in the day and once at night.
She was given twelve servants, who each held a silken string which was fastened round her leg. There was little pleasure in flying about like this.
One day the Emperor recieved a parcel on which was written ' The Nightingale '.
" Here is another new book about our famous bird ! " said the Emperor.
However it was not a book, but a little mechanical toy ー an artificial nightingale which was like the real one, only that it was set all over with diamonds, rubies and sapphires.
