THE FROG PRINCE
(Part two)
The frog said to Nadia, “I must sit next to you. Put me on this chair.” Nadia did so. Then the frog said, “Now put a golden plate near me. I must eat out of it.” The frog ate the food and said again, “Now I am tired. Take me to your room. I want to sleep.” Nadia shivered when she touched the frog, but she took the frog to her room and put it on
her snow-white pillow. Soon the frog fell a sleep. It woke up early in the morning, hopped off pillow and went out of the palace. Nadia didn’t sleep all night. Now she was happy. “I shall not be troubled by it again,” she thought. But when the night came the princess heard the same noise on the stairs and the same tap at the door. The same voice said, “Open the door, you must keep your promise!”
When Nadia opened the door the frog hopped into the room.
Again it sat next to Nadia, again it ate out of a golden plate and again it slept
on her snow-white pillow. Early in the morning the frog hopped out of the palace.
On the third night the frog came once more. The next morning when Nadia looked at her pillow she didn’t see the ugly cold frog. There was a most handsome prince there! The prince said “A cruel fairy changed me into a frog and I could only become a prince again when a princess let me eat from a golden plate and sleep on her pillow for three days. Dear princess, you were so kind to me. You let me eat with you and sleep on your pillow, and I want to marry you and to take you to my father’s palace.” And he did so and they were happy all their life.
