从前在那里住了有了一些美丽的女儿的国王，但是最年轻的甚至比其余者更美丽。

在这一国王的城堡的附近是大又抑郁的森林。 只是一次短散步进入树之内是小的清扫。 在远的边站着了一棵旧的石灰树, 和在它的树枝之下溅湿一个泉在中央中一黑暗, 深处池。

每当它非常热又国王最年轻女儿会跑进入这木材之内而且袖手旁观池, 将她的金球丢进空气。 这是她的喜爱消遣。

一个午后当公主丢在空气中是高耸的球的时候，她没有抓它! 它在草之上滑倒过她的手指了。 然后它卷过去她进入池之内而且在水之下消失了。

公主进入池之内凝视了，但是她的宝贵球不见了。 很快地，她像她可以到达一样遥远地使她的双臂陷入池了，但是她可以除了杂草和睡莲以外什么也没感觉。 一些人说池如此深，它没有了底部。 因此当公主了解她的金球永远地不见的时候，她开始哭。 "回到我这个微小又金的球 , " 发出呜咽声音公主, 进入水之内注视。

现在通常，公主习惯于随心所欲。 因此在她的金球之后不神奇地流行的在从水，她开始甚至更高声狂吠上面。 亲爱的, 表示惊讶亲爱的! 首先她捺印了她的脚，然后她在脾气的草上丢她自己下来。

公主正在制造如此很多的噪音哪一她在她旁边的草之上从水和跳跃没有注意大的绿色青蛙根他的头。 "不要哭 , 美丽的公主 , " 嗄嗄叫青蛙。 " 我看见你的金球秋天进入水，而且跳水下来而且为你准备它将会是我的快乐，如果你将会给我某事作为回报。

在这，公主高兴起来了。 " 我将会高兴地给你我的珠宝和珍珠,使我的金王冠相等，如果你将会使我的金球回复。 " 它忠于说承诺不应该匆忙被做,由公主甚至, 因为一个诺言是一定被保持的一件事物, 尤其对青蛙!"

青蛙更接近单脚跳对公主。 "珍珠和珠宝和金的王冠不是使用对我 , " 他继续， "但是如果你将会爱我而且是我的朋友，如果你将会让我从你的金碟子吃 , 来自你的金杯子的饮料、和睡眠在你的金床上，我将会跳水下来而且接来你的球 ."

如此热心是公主再一次见到她的金球, 她没有太小心地到青蛙必须说的听。

很快地当做闪光, 青蛙进入然后被振动的池之内跳跃在再上面以他的嘴的球。 立刻女儿夺取了她的球而且跑回到城堡的国王的。

"和你拿我 , " 哭青蛙。 "我不能够跑像你和我一样的斋戒将被留下 ."

但是公主没有关心她的诺言而且很快忘记所有有关青蛙的事。 那日子稍后，当公主坐在桌子前的时候，某事在大理石的楼梯上面被听到来临。 Splish 、钱, splish 钱! 声音来了越来越近的, 和一种声音哭, "让我进去 , 国王的年轻女儿 ."

公主跳跃在上面了解谁打电话给她。 现在当她瞥见了青蛙的时候，她变非常苍白的了。

" 一只青蛙和你想要什么?" 要求国王,看起来相当惊讶。

公主吊了她的头。 "当我袖手旁观我的金球跌入水的泉的时候。 因为我哭，所以这一只青蛙为我把它接来了回来这么多。" 公主开始再哭。 "我答应爱他而且让他从我的金碟子吃 , 在我的金床上的来自我的金杯子的饮料、和睡眠 ."

在他说之前，国王看青蛙而且想一阵子。 "然后你一定信守你的承诺 , 我的女儿 ."

公主认识她一定服从，因此，她让青蛙进来。 青蛙在她之后单脚跳了而且跳跃在进入她的椅子之内和笔直地上面在桌子之上。 " 现在推动在我附近的你的金碟子。 " 青蛙说, "以便我们可能一起吃 ." 当她这么做，因为公主没有感觉起来多像吃，所以青蛙在她的碟子之上跳跃而且吃光了她所有的晚餐, 幸好。

下一个, 青蛙从她的小金的杯子喝了，直到它相当空。 不知何故公主一点也也不觉得口渴! 在有的青蛙之后完成的, 他在公主的膝上拿了一次棒的跳跃而且登陆了。 " 走开你丑陋又寒冷的青蛙!" 她尖叫了。 " 我永远不会让你在我的可爱又干净床上睡觉!"

那使国王非常生气。 "当你需要它的时候，这一只青蛙帮助了你。 现在你一定对他信守你的承诺。"

"我在那令人惊奇的一餐之后非常疲累 , " 青蛙说, "和你确实答应我可以去在你的金床上睡觉 ."

非常不情愿地，公主在楼上拾起青蛙并且携带他到她的房间了。

当青蛙进入她的金床的中央之内单脚跳的时候, 它仅仅是太多为公主。 她努力地推动了青蛙，而且它在地板之上落下。

当他落下，他进入一位英俊的王子之内被改变。 符咒在他之上被一个邪恶的巫婆所投，而且只有公主有了力量打破它。

公主是话不多的。 她的确觉得非常难过那她对青蛙如此无情。

在一会儿、英俊的王子和公主是已婚的之后, 而且在快乐地之后曾经住。

The Frog Prince

Once upon a time there lived a King who had several beautiful daughters, but the youngest was even more beautiful than the rest.

Near the castle of this King was a large and gloomy forest. Just a short walk into the trees was a small clearing. At the far side stood an old lime tree, and beneath its branches splashed a fountain in the middle of a dark, deep pool.

Whenever it was very hot, the King's youngest daughter would run of into this wood and sit by the pool, throwing her golden ball into the air. This was her favourite pastime.

One afternoon when the Princess threw the ball high up in the air, she didn't catch it! It slipped through her fingers onto the grass. Then it rolled past her into the pool and disappeared beneath the water.

The Princess peered into the pool, but her precious ball was gone. Quickly, she plunged her arms into the pool as far as she could reach, but she could feel nothing except weeds and water lilies. Some people said the pool was so deep, it had no bottom. So when the Princess realised her golden ball was gone forever, she began to cry. "Come back to me this minute, golden ball," sobbed the Princess, staring into the water.

Now as a rule, Princesses are used to getting their own way. So after her golden ball didn't magically pop up out of the water, she started to howl even louder. Dear, oh dear! First she stamped her feet and then she threw herself down on the grass in temper.

The Princess was making so much noise that she didn't notice a big green frog stick his head out of the water and jump onto the grass beside her. "Don't cry, beautiful Princess," croaked the frog. " I saw your golden ball fall into the water, and it will be my pleasure to dive down and get it for you, if you will give me something in return.

At this, the Princess cheered up. " I will gladly give you my jewels and pearls, even my golden crown, if you will bring back my golden ball." It is true to say that promises should never be made in a hurry, even by Princesses, because a promise is a thing that must be kept, especially to frogs!"

The frog hopped nearer to the Princess. "Pearls and jewels and golden crowns are no use to me," he went on, "but if you'll love me and be my friend, if you'll let me eat from your golden plate, drink from your golden cup, and sleep on your golden bed, I will dive down and fetch your ball."

So eager was the Princess to see her golden ball once more, that she didn't listen too carefully to what the frog had to say.

"I promise you all you ask, if only you will bring my ball," she said.

Quickly as a flash, the frog jumped into the pool then bobbed up again with the ball in his mouth. Straight away the King's daughter snatched her ball and ran back to the castle.

"Take me with you," cried the frog. "I cannot run as fast as you and I shall be left behind."

But the Princess didn't care about her promise and soon forgot all about the frog. Later that day, when the Princess was sitting at the table, something was heard coming up the marble stairs. Splish, splosh, splish splosh! The sound came nearer and nearer, and a voice cried, "Let me in, youngest daughter of the King."

The Princess jumped up to see who had called her. Now when she caught sight of the frog, she turned very pale.

"What does a frog want with you?" demanded the King, looking rather surprised.

The Princess hung her head. "When I was sitting by the fountain my golden ball fell into the water. This frog fetched it back for me, because I cried so much." The Princess started to cry again. "I promised to love him and let him eat from my golden plate, drink from my golden cup, and sleep on my golden bed."

The King looked at the frog and thought for a while before he spoke. "Then you must keep your promise, my daughter."

The Princess knew she must obey, so she let the frog to come inside. The frog hopped in after her and jumped up into her chair and straight onto the table. "Now push your golden plate near me." said the frog, "so that we may eat together." As she did so, the frog leapt onto her plate and ate up all her dinner, which was just as well, because the Princess didn't feel much like eating.

Next, the frog drank from her little golden cup until it was quite empty. Somehow the Princess didn't feel at all thirsty either! After the frog had finished, he took one great leap and landed on the Princess's knee. "Go away you ugly, cold frog!" she screamed. "I will never let you sleep on my lovely, clean bed!"

The made the King very angry. "This frog helped you when you needed it. Now you must keep your promise to him."

"I am very tired after that wonderful meal," the frog said, "and you did promise that I could go to sleep on your golden bed."

Very unwillingly the Princess picked up the frog and carried him upstairs to her room.

When the frog hopped into the middle of her golden bed, it was just too much for the Princess. She pushed the frog hard and it fell onto the floor.

As he fell he was changed into a handsome Prince. A spell had been cast on him by an evil witch and only the Princess had the power to break it.

The Princess was speechless. She felt very sorry indeed that she had been so unkind to the frog.

After a while, the handsome Prince and the Princess were married, and lived happily ever after.
