There stood his wife on the castle steps. 101 She took him by the hand, and they went in.There were large halls and beautiful rooms.There were golden tables and chairs.There was a garden full of flowers and fruits.And there was a forest full of deer and sheep. But his wife was not happy.She wanted more power.The next morning she said, You must be king of this country. Go quickly and tell the fish so. I do not want to be king, said he.

There was a great storm.The sky was black.The lightning flashed, and the thunder roared.The wind blew, and the waves beat high. The fisherman was frightened. But he stood by the sea and shouted, 0 prince of the sea!Come listen to me,For my wife IsabelHas a wish to tell. What does she
