Once upon a time, there
was a prince whose one and only wish was to marry a princess-but only a true
princess. In order to find her, he travelled all over the land.
He met young princesses and old ones,
beautiful princesses and plain ones, rich princesses and poor ones, but there
was always something that was not quite right with each of them.
The prince began to despair. He called
together his courtiers and announced, ''I have failed to find my dream princess.
We will go home to our palace without delay.''
One dark night, there was the most tremendous
storm. Lightning flashed across the sky and thunder buffeted the thick palace
walls.
The prince and his parents were talking
in the drawing room, when they heard a tiny tap-tapping at the window. The
prince opened it, and standing there before him was a very beautiful, but very
wet, young lady. her hair was dripping, her dress was soaked through, and she
was shivering.
''I am a princess,'' she told the prince,
''and I am lost. May I please come in and shelter from the storm?''
