The Sleeping Beauty

In a palace many years ago, the most beautiful princess was born to king and queen. They
named her Rosamond and gave a party during her baptism. All the wise women were invited except
the thirteenth wise woman.
On the day of the party, the thirteenth wise woman came. She was so angry for she did not have
a golden plate. She left the palace hurriedly and said, “Rosamond will not die of hurting her finger with
a spindle but she will sleep for a hundred years instead.”
The king ordered his servants to burn all the spindles in the palace.
Rosamond grew up and become the loveliest princess in the kingdom. On her fifteenth birthday,
she went around the palace. She entered in one of the rooms and saw a woman with spindle. She
borrowed the spindle and was wounded. Immediately, she fell into a deep sleep. All the people in the
kingdom went asleep, too, including the animals.
After a hundred years, a handsome young prince came to the palace. He was surprised of the
thick vines that covered the palace. He went inside and saw the lovely sleeping princess. For him,
she was the most beautiful princess he ever saw. He fell in love with an instant. He knelt down and
kissed her.
