FAIRY TALES 
 
THE GOLDEN BIRD 
A certain king had a beautiful garden, and in the garden stood a tree which bore golden 
apples. These apples were always counted, and about the time when they began to grow 
ripe it was found that every night one of them was gone. The king became very angry at 
this, and ordered the gardener to keep watch all night under the tree.
