10:34
cat once upon a time there lived an old
10:37
man and his wife in a dirty Tumbl down
10:40
Cottage not very far from The Splendid
10:43
Palace where the king and queen dwelt in
10:47
spite of The Wretched state of the Hut
10:49
which many people declared was too bad
10:51
even for a pig to live in the old man
10:53
was very rich for he was a great Miser
10:56
and lucky besides and would often go
10:59
without food all day sooner than change
11:01
one of his beloved gold
11:03
pieces but after a while he found that
11:06
he had starved himself once too often he
11:09
felt ill and had no strength to get well
11:11
again and in a few days he died leaving
11:14
his wife and one son behind
11:17
him the night following his death the
11:20
son dreamed that an unknown man appeared
11:23
to him and said listen to me your father
11:26
is dead and your mother will soon die
11:28
and all their riches will belong to you
11:31
half of his wealth is ill gotten and
11:34
this you must give back to the poor from
11:36
whom he squeezed it the other half you
11:38
must throw into the Sea Watch however as
11:41
the money sinks into the water and if
11:44
anything should swim catch it and keep
11:46
it even if it is nothing more than a bit
11:49
paper then the man vanished and the
11:53
awoke the remembrance of his dream
11:55
troubled him greatly he did not want to
11:58
part with the rich es that his father
12:00
had left him for he had known all his
12:02
life what it was to be cold and hungry
12:04
and now he had hoped for a little
12:07
comfort and pleasure still he was honest
12:11
and good-hearted and if his father had
12:13
come wrongfully by his wealth he felt he
12:15
could never enjoy it and at last he made
12:18
up his mind to do as he had been bidden
12:21
he found out who were the people who
12:22
were poorest in the village and spent
12:25
half of his money in helping them and
12:27
the other half he put in his pocket
12:30
from a rock that jutted right out into
12:32
the sea he flung it in in a moment it
12:35
was out of sight and no man could have
12:37
told the spot where it had sunk except
12:40
for a tiny scrap of paper floating on
12:42
the water he stretched down carefully
12:45
and managed to reach it and on opening
12:47
it found six shillings wrapped
12:50
inside this was now all the money he had
12:54
world the young man stood and looked at
12:57
it thoughtfully well
12:59
I can't do much with this he said to
13:01
himself but after all six shillings were
13:04
better than nothing and he wrapped them
13:06
up again and SLI them into his
13:08
coat he worked in his garden for the
13:11
next few weeks and he and his mother
13:13
contrived to live on the fruit and
13:14
vegetables he got out of it and then she
13:18
suddenly the poor fellow felt very sad
13:22
when he had laid her inner grave and
13:23
with a heavy heart he wandered into the
13:26
forest not knowing where he was going
13:30
by and by he began to get hungry and
13:33
seeing a small Hut in front of him he
13:35
knocked at the door and asked if they
13:39
milk the old woman who opened it begged
13:42
him to come in adding kindly that if he
13:44
wanted a night's lodging he might have
13:46
it without it costing him
13:48
anything two women and three men were at
13:51
supper when he entered and silently made
13:54
room for him to sit down by them when he
13:57
had eaten he began to look about him and
13:59
was surprised to see an animal sitting
14:01
by the fire different from anything he
14:03
had ever noticed before it was gray in
14:06
color and not very big but its eyes were
14:09
large and very bright and it seemed to
14:10
be singing in an odd way quite unlike
14:15
forest what is the name of that strange
14:18
little creature asked he and they
14:20
answered we call it a cat I should like
14:24
to buy it if it is not too dear said the
14:26
young man it would be company for me
14:29
and they told him that he might have it
14:31
for six shillings if he cared to give so
14:33
much the young man took out his precious
14:36
bit of paper handed them the six
14:38
shillings and the next morning bade them
14:40
farewell with the cat lying snugly in
14:43
his cloak for the whole day they
14:45
wandered through Meadows and forests
14:48
till in the evening they reached the
14:49
house the young fellow knocked at the
14:51
door and asked the old man who opened it
14:54
if he could rest there that night adding
14:56
that he had no money to pay for it then
14:59
I must give it to you answered the man
15:01
and led him into a room where two women
15:03
and two men were sitting at supper one
15:05
of the women was the old man's wife the
15:07
other his daughter he placed the cat on
15:10
the mantle shelf and they all crowded
15:12
around to examine this strange Beast and
15:15
the cat rubbed itself against them and
15:17
held out its paw and sang to them and
15:19
the women were delighted and gave it
15:21
everything that a cat could eat and a
15:24
besides after hearing the youth's story
15:27
and how he had nothing in the world left
15:29
him except his cat the old man advised
15:31
him to go to the Palace which was only a
15:33
few miles distance and take counsel of
15:36
the king who was kind to everyone and
15:38
would certainly be his friend the young
15:40
man thanked him and said he would gladly
15:43
take his advice and early next morning
15:45
he set out for the Royal
15:47
Palace he sent a message to the king to
15:50
beg for an audience and received a reply
15:53
that he was to go into the Great Hall
15:55
where he would find his
15:57
majesty the King was at dinner with with
15:59
his court when the young man entered and
16:01
he signed to him to come near the youth
16:03
bowed low and then gazed in surprise at
16:06
the crowd of little black creatures who
16:08
were running about the floor and even on
16:10
the table itself indeed they were so
16:12
bold that they snatched pieces of food
16:14
from the king's own plate and if he
16:16
drove them away tried to bite his hands
16:18
so that he could not eat his food and
16:19
his courtiers fared no better what sort
16:23
of animals are these asked the Youth of
16:25
one of the ladies sitting near him they
16:27
are called rats answered the king who
16:29
had overheard the question and for years
16:31
we have tried some way of putting an end
16:33
to them but it is impossible they come
16:37
beds at this moment something was seen
16:40
flying through the air the cat was on
16:42
the table and with two or three shakes a
16:44
number of rats were lying dead round him
16:46
then a great scuffling of feet was heard
16:48
and in a few minutes the hall was
16:50
clear for some minutes the king and his
16:53
courters only looked at each other in
16:55
astonishment what kind of animal is that
16:57
which can work Magic of this sort asked
17:00
he and the young man told him that it
17:02
was called a cat and that he had bought
17:04
it for six shillings and the King
17:07
answered because of the luck you have
17:09
brought me in freeing my Palace from the
17:11
plague which has tormented me for many
17:13
years I will give you the choice of two
17:15
things either you shall be my prime
17:17
minister or else you shall marry my
17:19
daughter and Reign after me say which
17:23
be the princess and the kingdom said the
17:26
young man and so it was
17:32
