A Story (continued)
“There lived in Dublin long ago a Princess, and when she died her people put her into the coffin with all her jewels and dresses.”
(continued from previous page)They began to cut her finger and in cutting it, the girl woke and the boys been frightened ran away. The Princess went home and told her people that she only slept. Then she went on search of the boys who saved her and when she found them she prepared a feast for them. She gave them lots of money and the Princess lived to the age of one hundred years.
