heart that I have now? - Is something wrong? - No, I never feIt better. I teII you that she's a reaI princess. She heIped me over the reaIm just Iike a princess shouId! She has the cIeverness, integrity and kindness of a reaI princess. She's a very nice girI, but a princess is something ethereaI. Have you noticed her hands? WeII, then Iook at mine. And am I not the queen? Let's put her to the test. What test? The same test that your mother put me through when I was your fiancee. Rubbish. You couId put rocks in her bed without it bothering her a bit. She sIeeps on a hard bed and never compIains. She is just too poIite, as a reaI princess. AII right, do it your way. CarefuI, Your Majesty. Where are you going? - And where to? - This way. - Are you aII right, Your Majesty? - Did I faII? Isn't that enough? No. One, two, three... Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. We need twenty mattresses and twenty down quiIts. Otherwise anyone'd feeI it. - Where are my sIippers? - Right in front of you. I'm ready. - There it is. - Can't be the same one. Time has had no effect on it. My God, I recognize it. That's it. Quiet now. She's coming. Quick, this way! What about me? Over here, Your Majesty. May we come in, dear? See, she couIdn't faII asIeep. But now she's sIeeping. - Yes, but not on the bed. - Nothing couId wake her up now. Good morning! Good morning. Did you sIeep weII? WonderfuIIy! I had such sweet dreams on that bed. What did I teII you? Then I sat to do some knitting, but the sun was hot and I dozed. ReaIIy? Then why have you got red eyes? You're mistaken. Am I mistaken? I hate to admit it, but I couIdn't faII asIeep Iast night. I feeI Iike I'm bIack and bIue aII over. Do you hear it, Your Majesty? She's aII bIack and bIue. It's quite understandabIe. How couId she sIeep on such an enormous bouIder? Your Highness, who taught you such manners? A reIative of yours. And yours. And yours now. Good morning! I heard there was to be a wedding here soon. I have beautifuI wedding rings! Wedding decorations! AII sorts ofjeweIry! I'm ready to trade it aII for one ordinary IittIe pea. I'II put it in a gIass-fronted cabinet, and aII princesses wiII have nothing to worry about anymore, because no prince wiII ever be abIe to find out whether she's a reaI princess or not.
