| Yours was a promise hard to keep. But by it you have freed me from a witch's spell. Years ago she changed me from a prince into a frog. A frog I should stay, she said, until I should find a princess who would let me sit beside her at the table and eat from her plate and drink from her cup and even sleep in her bed. She thought that would never be. But it is done and I am free. Now I shall be king and I wish you to be my queen. |
