Answer:
Happy in Service
Have you ever heard someone say, 'It's better to give than receive?' They could have been referring to any number of things: giving a gift, helping someone at work, or volunteering for a worthy cause.
The main character in our short story, The Happy Prince written by Oscar Wilde, sure thought so. He was willing to give up his greatest possessions for the benefit of people who were hurting and less fortunate.
Let's take a closer look at this tale involving a princely statue and a friendly swallow.
The Statue and the Swallow
When our short tale opens, we're introduced to the Happy Prince, an ornate statue situated high on a pole overlooking the city. He boasts a sword with a ruby on its handle, sapphires for eyes, and delicate leaves of gold covering his entire body. The townspeople are proud of the statue and admire the warmth and beauty that it gives off.
It's springtime in the prince's city, and a group of swallows has moved from one location and are en route to Egypt, leaving behind one of their own. This particular swallow, the second protagonist, has fallen in love with a local Reed bird. They spend all spring and summer together, but their love is short-lived, and the brokenhearted swallow starts making plans to rejoin his friends.
Meeting the Prince
After a solid day of flying, the swallow is exhausted and begins to look for a place to rest. He happens upon the prince and decides to make his bed there for the night under the shelter of the statue. Just as he's settling down, a drop of water falls on him. The swallow is confused; there's not a cloud in the sky! It's then that he looks up and realizes the eyes of the Happy Prince are filled with tears.
The swallow is confused. How can the 'Happy Prince' be sad? The prince tells the bird that he was not acquainted with tears when he was alive because everything around him was wonderful. Now that he is up high above the city, he can see the sadness and troubles of the people and his heart is sad.
