'It is winter's, answered the Swallow. 'The snow will soon come.
In Egypt the sun is warm and the trees are green. Dear prince, I
must leave you;but I will never forget you. '
'A little girl is standing there in the square below. She is selling
eggs. Her eggs have fallen on the ground and they are broken.
She has no money to take home. Her father will hit her. Take out
my other eye and give it to her. '
' I will stay with you for one more night, ' said the Swallow, 'but I
cannot take out your other eye. You will not be able to see! '
'Do it ! ' said the prince.
So the Swallow took out the prince's other eye and flew down
with it. He flew to the girl and put the jewel in her hand.
' This is a beautiful piece of glass! ' cried the little girl. She ran
home, laughing.
Then the Swallow flew back to the prince. 'You cannot see
now, ' he said, 'so I will stay with you. '
' No, ' said the poor prince, ' 'you must go to Egypt. '
'I will stay with you, ' repeated the Swallow, and he slept at the
Prince's feet.
The next day he stayed with the prince. He told the prince
stories about the strange lands that he knew.
' Dear little bird, ' said the prince, 'you are telling about strange
and wonderful things, but the suffering of men and women is
stronger than anything. Fly over my city, little bird. Tell me what
you see there. '
So the Swallow flew over the city. He saw the poor people
sitting at the gate. He flew into the dark streets and saw the white
faces of hungry children with sad eyes. Under a bridge, two little
boys were lying close together to keep warm. 'We are so hungry! '
they said. 'You cannot lie there! ' shouted a guard.
