Answer:
The lead heart of the prince was the only thing that was not removed from the statue. Except for that, everything was removed and donated to the poor people of the city.
Explanation:
The short story "The Happy Prince" written by the famous author Oscar Wilde is about social injustice and how a prince and a migratory swallow bird helped the poor. In the story, the happy prince was a statue covered with gold leaves and had sapphires eyes with an enormous red ruby on his sword handle. The prince asked the bird who was migrating to Europe to help him out so that he could be happy. Slowly and steadily, the bird helped the prince to donate all the gems and gold the prince owned to the needy. Eventually, the bird passed away due to the cold weather, and the statue was burnt down as it became shabby and dull. However, the heart of the statue could not be burnt and was thrown away.
Thus, we can conclude that the lead heart of the prince could not be removed from the statue.
