　　Long, long ago the Mouse King had a beautiful daughter. When she was old enough to be married, he called together the oldest and cleverest mice to talk about it.

　　“My daughter,” He said, “is far too beautiful to marry just anybody. I have decided to marry her to the greatest thing in the world. Now, who shall it be?”

　　“The sun,” the first mouse said at once, “is the greatest thing in the world. It shines over the whole world.”

　　“Well, then, I shall marry her to the sun,” said the Mouse King.

　　“But,” said the second, “a cloud can cover the sun.”

　　“Then, she must be married to the cloud.”

　　“But,” said the third, “the rain breaks through the clouds and puts an end to them.”

　　“That is true. I must marry her to the rain.”

　　“But,” cried the fourth, “no matter how hard the rain falls, it cannot wash away the trees.”

　　“Then she must be the tree's wife.”

　　“But,” shouted the fifth, “a strong wind can blow down the trees.”

　　“Very true. Then the wind must be her husband.”

　　“But,” remembered the sixth, “no matter how hard the wind blows, it cannot blow away the earth.”

　　“Then I must marry her to the earth.”

　　“But,” called out the seventh, “the earth is covered by the wooden floors of men's houses.”

　　“Then she shall marry the wooden floor at once.”

　　“But,” the last said slowly, “no matter how strong the wooden floor is, a mouse can bite his way through it.”

　　“It is clear that a mouse is the greatest thing in the world,” the happy Mouse King said, with a smile on his face.

　　And that was why the Mouse King's daughter married a mouse at last.
