Andrew Lang Quotes
Once Upon A Time There Lived A King And Queen Whose Children Had All Died, First One And Then Another, Until At Last Only One Little Daughter Remained, And The Queen Was At Her Wits' End To Know Where To Find A Really Good Nurse Who Would Take Care Of Her, And Bring Her Up. A Herald Was Sent Who Blew A Trumpet At Every Street Corner, And Commanded All The Best Nurses To Appear Before The Queen, That She Might Choose One For The Little Princess. So On The Appointed Day The Whole Palace Was Crowded With Nurses, Who Came From The Four Corners Of The World To Offer Themselves, Until The Queen Declared That If She Was Ever To See The Half Of Them, They Must Be Brought Out To Her, One By One, As She Sat In A Shady Wood Near The Palace.
