The Magic Trunk

It was a curious trunk. When the lock was pressed close the trunk
would fly. The merchant’s son crouched down inside, pressed the lock,
and lo! Up flew the trunk through the chimney into the clouds, on and on,
higher and higher. The lower part was cracked, which rather frightened
him, for it had broken in two, he would have had a nasty fall.
However, it descended safely, and he found himself in Turkey. He hid
the trunk under a heap of dry leaves in a wood, and walked into the next
town. He could do so very well for, among the Turks, everybody goes
about clad as he was, in dressing –gown and slippers. He met a nurse
carrying a little child in her arms. He asked the nurse “What palace is
that with high windows close by the town?” “The King’s daughter dwells
there,” replied the nurse.
