The Frog Prince
One fine evening a young princess put on her bonnet and clogs, and went out take a
walk by herself in a wood; and when she came to a cool spring of water with a rose in
the middle of it, she sat herself down to rest a while. Now she had a golden ball in her
hand, which was her favorite plaything; and she was always tossing it up into the air,
and catching it again as it fell.
After a time she threw it up so high that she missed catching it as it fell; and the ball
bounded away, and rolled along on the ground, until at last it fell down into the spring.
The princess looked into the spring after her ball, but it was very deep, so deep that she
could not see the bottom of it. She began to cry, and said, “Alas! If I could only get my
ball again, I would give all my fine clothes and jewels, and everything that I have in the
world.”
Whilst she was speaking, a frog put its head out of the water, and said, “Princess, why
do you weep so bitterly?” “Alas!” said she, “What can you do for me, you nasty frog? My
golden ball has fallen into the spring.” The frog said, “I do not want your pearls, and
jewels, and the clothes; but if you will love me, and let me live with you and eat from
your golden plate, and sleep on your bed, I will bring you your ball again.”

Answer the question based on the text below.

Once upon a time there lived a very famous king, named the King of
Crete. He had a monster which was half bull and half man.

He ordered Daedalus, a craftsman from Athens, to build a wax in order to


house the monster. When Daedalus finished his work, he wanted to leave Crete.
But the King would not let him go.

Daedalus escape through the air by using wings fixed to his body with
wax. He also made wings for his son, Icarus and made him fly behind himself.
But the son was so glad and excited that he soon went too high. As he
flew nearer to the sun, it got warmer and warmer until at last the wax melted and
his body fell down into the sea near Troy.

The sea is now called the Icarian Sea.
