At last the Prime Minister began to be afraid that the King would be starved to death , so he resolved to hide himself in some dark corner of the kitchen , and never take his eyes off the cooking-pot . His surprise was great when he presently saw a little green dog with one ear slip softly into the kitchen , uncover the pot , transfer all its contents to his basket , and run off . The Prime Minister followed hastily , and tracked him all through the town to the cottage of the good old man ; then he ran back to the King and told him that he had found out where all his dinners and suppers went . The King , who was very much astonished , said he should like to go and see for himself . So he set out , accompanied by the Prime Minister and a guard of archers , and arrived just in time to find the old man and the Princess finishing his dinner . The King ordered that they should be seized and bound with ropes , and Frisk also . When they were brought back to the palace some one told the King , who said : ` To-day is the last day of the respite granted to those impostors ; they shall have their heads cut off at the same time as these stealers of my dinner . ' Then the old man went down on his knees before the King and begged for time to tell him everything . While he spoke the King for the first time looked attentively at the Princess , because he was sorry to see how she cried , and when he heard the old man saying that her name was Rosette , and that she had been treacherously thrown into the sea , he turned head over heels three times without stopping , in spite of being quite weak from hunger , and ran to embrace her , and untied the ropes which bound her with his own hands , declaring that he loved her with all his heart . Messengers were sent to bring the Princes out of prison , and they came very sadly , believing that they were to be executed at once : the nurse and her daughter and the boatman were brought also . As soon as they came in Rosette ran to embrace her brothers , while the traitors threw themselves down before her and begged for mercy . The King and the Princess were so happy that they freely forgave them , and as for the good old man he was splendidly rewarded , and spent the rest of his days in the palace . The King of the Peacocks made ample amends to the King and Prince for the way in which they had been treated , and did everything in his power to show how sorry he was . The nurse restored to Rosette all her dresses and jewels , and the bushel of gold pieces ; the wedding was held at once , and they all lived happily ever after -- even to Frisk , who enjoyed the greatest luxury , and never had anything worse than the wing of a partridge for dinner all the rest of his life . -LRB- 7 -RRB- -LRB- 7 -RRB- Madame d'Aulnoy . THE ENCHANTED PIG ONCE upon a time there lived a King who had three daughters . Now it happened that he had to go out to battle , so he called his daughters and said to them : ` My dear children , I am obliged to go to the wars . The enemy is approaching us with a large army . It is a great grief to me to leave you all . During my absence take care of yourselves and be good girls ; behave well and look after everything in the house .
You may walk XXXXX the garden , and you may go into all the rooms in the palace , except the room at the back in the right-hand corner ; into that you must not enter , for harm would befall you . '
