Fairy tale story for childrens with many illustrate.THE BROWNIES AND PRINCEFLORIMEL CHAPTER ITHE FLIGHT OF PRINCE FLORIMELAll that is here set down happened in a wonderful country where wonderful things are always happening.In a certain kingdom there was a young prince named Florimel.His father, the king, had lately passed away, but, though Florimel was his only son, and of age, he had not succeeded to the throne that by right of birth was his.The reason was that his father had a brother, a very cruel, crafty duke, high in the councils of the state, who had designs upon the throne himself. In a covetous frame of mind he had once taken a photograph of the crown and ermine robe, and the intelligent palace parrot had made a remark thereat:“‘Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown,’” croaked the bird.It was a wise quotation, and yet it was not wise to make it,[4] for right after that something happened to the unlucky parrot.The duke with his evil influence swayed the opinions of the royal cabinet which made the laws. In his wicked old heart he wished Florimel out of the way. If Florimel had been like other princes one reads about his people no doubt would have insisted upon his occupying the throne. But the throne was of ordinary size, so that he never could have occupied it. Like other princes he was all that was fair and handsome, but he was very small indeed. He was no larger than the average-sized boy of twelve, and the people who should have proved his loyal subjects were well-grown men and women. In their talks among themselves they showed a shame that anyone so small should rule them.
