Example text

It happened long ago, and in a far-off land across the sea where lived a King who had three sons. Of these, the 29 THREE GAY TALES FROM GRIMM two oldest were considered witty and clever, but the youngest talked little and seemed simple, and for this reason he was known only as Simple Sepp. Now the King was getting old and weak, and knowing that his days on earth were numbered he began to make plans for giving away his kingdom. One day he called his three children to his side and said, "Go forth into the world, my sons.

Said Hans. "And speak nicely to the girl," the widow went on. " cried Hans. " "Tomorrow," said his mother. "Please, thank you," said Hans, bowing low and pulling 53 THREE GAY TALES FROM GRIMM off his cap to show her how quickly he could learn to be polite.

"Well then, I'll help you, son," she said. " "Oh yes," said Hans. "Will do just as you say. " The good widow now set out to teach the awkward boy some manners. "You must always be polite," she told him.
