there was once a Prince who wished to marry aPrincess; but then she must be a real Princess. Hetravelled all over the world in hopes of finding such alady; but there was always something wrong.Princesses he found in plenty; but whether theywere real Princesses it was impossible for him todecide, for now one thing, now another, seemedto him not quite right about the ladies. At last hereturned to his palace quite cast down, because hewished so much to have a real Princess for his wife.
One evening a fearful tempest arose, it thundered and lightened, and the rain poureddown from the sky in torrents: besides, it was as dark as pitch. All at once there was heard aviolent knocking at the door, and the old King, the Prince's father, went out himself toopen it.
It was a Princess who was standing outside the door. What with the rain and the wind,she was in a sad condition; the water trickled down from her hair,and her clothes clung to herbody. She said she was a real Princess.
“Ah! we shall soon see that!” thought the old Queen-mother; however, she said not aword of what she was going to do; but went quietly into the bedroom,took all the bed-clothes off the bed, and put three little peas on the bedstead. She then laid twenty mattressesone upon another over the three peas, and put twenty feather beds over the mattresses.
Upon this bed the Princess was to pass the night.
the next morning she was asked how she had slept. “Oh, very badly indeed!” she replied. “I have scarcely closed my eyes the whole night through. I do not know what was in my bed,but I had something hard under me, and am all over black and blue. It has hurt me so much!”
Now it was plain that the lady must be a real Princess, since she had been able to feel thethree little peas through the twenty mattresses and twenty feather beds. None but a realPrincess could have had such a delicate sense of feeling.
the Prince accordingly made her his wife; being now convinced that he had found a realPrincess. The three peas were however put into the cabinet of curiosities, where they are stillto be seen, provided they are not lost.
Wasn't this a lady of real delicacy?
豌豆公主
从前有一位王子,他想找一位公主结婚,但她必须是一位真正的公主。
他走遍了全世界,想要寻到这样的一位公主。可是无论他到什么地方,他总是碰到一些障碍。公主倒有的是,不过他没有办法断定她们究竟是不是真正的公主。她们总是有些地方不大对头。
结果,他只好回家来,心中很不快活,因为他是那么渴望着得到一位真正的.公主。
有一天晚上,忽然起了一阵可怕的暴风雨。天空在掣电,在打雷,在下着大雨。这真有点使人害怕!
这时,有人在敲门,老国王就走过去开门。
站在城外的是一位公主。可是,天哪!经过了风吹雨打之后,她的样子是多么难看啊!水沿着她的头发和衣服向下面流,流进鞋尖,又从脚跟流出来。
她说她是一个真正的公主。
“是的,这点我们马上就可以考查出来。”老皇后心里想,可是她什么也没说。她走进卧房,把所有的被褥都搬开,在床榻上放了一粒豌豆。于是她取出二十床垫子,把它们压在豌豆上。随后,她又在这些垫子上放了二十床鸭绒被。
这位公主夜里就睡在这些东西上面。
早晨大家问她昨晚睡得怎样。
“啊,不舒服极了!”公主说,“我差不多整夜没合上眼!天晓得我床上有件什么东西?我睡到一块很硬的东西上面,弄得我全身发青发紫,这真怕人!”
现在大家就看出来了。她是一位真正的公主,因为压在这二十床垫子和二十床鸭绒被下面的一粒豌豆,她居然还能感觉得出来。除了真正的公主以外,任何人都不会有这么嫩的皮肤的。
因此那位王子就选她为妻子了,因为现在他知道他得到了一位真正的公主。这粒豌豆因此也就被送进了博物馆,如果没有人把它拿走的话,人们现在还可以在那儿看到它呢。
请注意,这是一个真的故事。
从前,有一个蚂蚁王国,里面有很多的蚂蚁,它们快乐的生活着。
在蚂蚁出生仓,一个蚂蚁蛋破碎了!一个小蚂蚁出来了,因为这个蚁蛋是蚂蚁女王红红生的,所以从红红生的蚁蛋里出生的小蚂蚁,就应该是公主或王子。她是女的,所以她应该是公主。小公主爬到了蚂蚁出生仓里一个绿叶椅,这么一卷,她就在“绿叶床”里睡着了。
从前有一个朝代,国王有一个儿子。他有三个姐姐,大姐叫玛丽娅公主,二姐叫阿丽嘉公主,三姐叫安娜公主。国王和皇后去世的时候,告诉王子: “谁来求婚,就让姐姐出嫁,不要久留她们。”
王子安葬了父母,和姐姐到花园散步。忽然天空乌云密布,雷鸣电闪。 “回去吧,姐姐。”王子说。 他们刚回到家,一声雷响,震塌了屋顶,飞进一只雄鹰,落在地上,变成一个漂亮的小伙子。他说: “你好,王子,过去我是来做客,现在是来求婚,我想和你大姐结婚。”
“既然你喜欢大姐,我不阻拦,愿上帝保佑她,” 玛丽娅公主答应了。雄鹰和她成了亲。把她带回自己的王国。 日子一天天过去了,整整过了一年,王子和两个姐姐到花园玩,天空忽然又布满乌云,雷鸣电闪。震耳欲聋。 “回去吧,姐姐。”王子说。 他们刚回到屋里,一声雷响,震塌了屋顶,飞进来一只山鹰,落到地上,变成一个漂亮的小伙子。
“你好,王子,我过去是来做客,现在是来求婚。” 他向阿丽嘉公主求婚。
王子回答说: “如果你爱上了二姐,就让她和你结婚好了,我不干涉她的自由。”
二公主答应了这桩婚事,嫁给了山鹰。山鹰把她带回自己的王国。
又过了一年,王子对小姐姐说: “走,我们到花园去玩玩。”
午餐时间到了,蚂蚁厨师做了香蕉沙拉,还没等美美开口,红红就开始一口又一口地吃了起来,刚吃了几口,红红就晕倒了!
等红红醒来时,她问:“我在哪儿?”旁边的美美说:“刚才你晕倒了,你现在在发高烧,这里是蚂蚁医院。蚂蚁大夫在用蚂蚁病因器连接你的心脏,好知道你是怎么晕倒的。”红红摸了摸头,这么一摸,手差点被烫熟了!突然,蚂蚁大夫叫着说:“太好了!原因是食物变质了,动物吃了,细菌进入大脑里,让大脑神经乱成一片,使动物晕倒,接着细菌会让动物发高烧。如果七天内身体好不了,就会死亡的!”红红害怕地说:“怎么办啊?有没有适合我的药物啊?”蚂蚁大夫又查了查,说:“我在蚂药单和蚁药单里查了查,没有适合你的药。”“啊?那怎么办?”美美问。蚂蚁大夫不慌不忙地说:“没关系,我有办法,离儿这不远有一个魔法谷,那里有一种草叫做魔法草,这种草能让女王身体好起来。魔法谷有一个魔怪,你要小心啊!”“知道了,让我去吧!”美美自告奋勇地说。
