8
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: Today I am sharing a retelling of the classic story Cinderella.

9
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 1: I hope you enjoy it. There was once an honest

10
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: gentleman who took for his second wife a beautiful lady,

11
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: the proudest and most disagreeable in the whole country. She

12
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: had two daughters, exactly like herself in every way. He

13
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 1: also had one little girl who was like her mother

14
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: in every way. She had been the best woman in

15
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: all the world. Not long after the second marriage had

16
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: taken place did the stepmother become jealous of the good

17
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: qualities of the little girl, who was so so different

18
00:01:55,760 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: from her own two daughters. She gave her all the

19
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: menial jobs of the house, getting her to wash the

20
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: floors and staircases, to dust the bedrooms, and clean the grates,

21
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: and while her sisters had carpeted bedrooms that had mirrors

22
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: where they could see themselves from head to toe. This

23
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: poor little girl was sent to sleep in an attic

24
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: on an old straw mattress, with only one chair and

25
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: not a looking glass in the room. She suffered all

26
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: of this in silence, not daring to complain to her father,

27
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 1: who was completely ruled by his new wife. When her

28
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: daily work was done, she used to sit down in

29
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: the chimney corner among the ashes, from which the two

30
00:02:54,160 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: sisters gave her the nickname of Cinderella. But Cinderella, however,

31
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: shabbily clad, was more beautiful than they were with all

32
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: their fine clothes. It so happened that the king's son

33
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: gave a series of balls, to which were invited all

34
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: the rank and fashion of the city, and among the

35
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: rest the two older sisters. They were very proud and happy,

36
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: and spent all of their time trying to decide what

37
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: they should wear, a source of new trouble to Cinderella,

38
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: whose job it was to get up their fine linen

39
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: and laces, and who never could please them however much

40
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: she tried. They talked of nothing but their clothes. I

41
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: said the eldest shall wear my velvet gown and my

42
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: trimmings of English lace, and I added, the younger will

43
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: have but my ordinary silk petticoat, but I shall decorate

44
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: it with an upper skirt of flowered brocade, and I

45
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: shall put on my diamond tiara, which is a great

46
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: deal finer than anything of yours. Here the older sister

47
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: grew angry, and the argument began to run so high

48
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: that Cinderella, who was known to have excellent taste, was

49
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 1: called upon to decide between them. She gave them the

50
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: best advice she could, and gently and modestly offered to

51
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: dress them herselves, and especially to arrange their hair, an

52
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: accomplishment in which she did better than most well known hairstylists.

53
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 1: The important evening came, and she exercised all her skill

54
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: to beautify the two young ladies. While she was combing

55
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: out the older girl's hair, this mean girl said, sharply, Cinderella,

56
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 1: do you not wish you were going to the ball? Ah? Madam?

57
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 1: They made her always say, Madame, you are only teasing me.

58
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: It is not my luck to have such chances. You

59
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: are right. People would only laugh to see a little

60
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: cinder girl at the ball. Any other than Cinderella would

61
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: have dressed the hair all a mess. But Cinderella was

62
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: good and dressed it perfectly, even and smooth and as

63
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: prettily as she could. The sisters had scarcely eaten for

64
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: two days and had broken a dozen stay laces a

65
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: day in trying to make themselves appear more slender. But

66
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 1: tonight they broke a dozen more and lost their tempers

67
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: over and over again before they had finished getting dressed.

68
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: When at last the happy moment arrived, Cinderella followed them

69
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: to the coach after it had whirled them away. She

70
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: sat down by the kitchen fire and cried. Immediately, her godmother,

71
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: who was a fairy, appeared beside her. What are you

72
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: crying for, my little girl? Oh? I wish, I wish

73
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: her sobs stopped her. You wish to go to the ball,

74
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: isn't it so? Cinderella nodded, Well, then be a good girl,

75
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: and you shall go. First, run into the garden and

76
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: fetch me the largest pumpkin you can find. Cinderella did

77
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 1: not understand what this had to do with her going

78
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: to the ball, but being obedient and obliging, she went.

79
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: Her godmother took the pumpkin, and, having scooped out all

80
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: its insides, struck it with her want. It became a

81
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: splendid gold covered coach lined with rose colored satin. Now,

82
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: fetch me the mouse trap out of the pantry, my

83
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: dear Cinderella brought it. It contained six of the fattest,

84
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: sleekest mice. The fairy lifted up the wire door, and

85
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: as each mouse ran out, she touched it and changed

86
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: it into a beautiful black horse. But what shall I

87
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: do for your coachman, Cinderella. Cinderella suggested that she had

88
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: seen a large black rat in the rat trap, and

89
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: he might do in that role. You are right, go

90
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: and look again for him. He was found, and the

91
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: fairy made him into a most respectable coachman with the

92
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: finest whiskers imaginable. She afterwards took six lizards from behind

93
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: the pumpkin frame and changed them into six footmen, all

94
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: in splendid clothes, who immediately jumped up behind the carriage,

95
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:40,719
Speaker 1: as if they had been footmen all their days. Well, Cinderella,

96
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: now you can go to the ball. What in these clothes?

97
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: Said Cinderella, sadly, looking down on her ragged dress. Her

98
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: godmother laughed and touched her also with the want, at

99
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: which her awful thread bare jacket became stiff with gold

100
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 1: and sparkling with jewels. Her woolen bare dress lengthened into

101
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 1: a gown of sweeping satin from underneath, which peeped out

102
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: her little feet, no longer bare, but covered with silk

103
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: stockings and the prettiest glass slippers in the world. Now, Cinderella,

104
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: off you go. But remember, if you stay one second

105
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:38,599
Speaker 1: after midnight, your carriage will become a pumpkin, your coachman

106
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: a rat, your horse's mice, and your footman lizards, while

107
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: you yourself will be the little cinder girl you were

108
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: an hour ago, Cinderella promised. Her heart was so full

109
00:09:54,640 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: of joy. Arriving at the pas Alice, the king's son,

110
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: whom someone probably the fairy, had told to wait for

111
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: the coming of an uninvited princess whom nobody knew, was

112
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: standing at the entrance ready to receive her. He offered

113
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: her his hand and led her with the utmost courtesy

114
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 1: through the gathered guests, who stood aside to let her pass,

115
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: whispering to one another, oh how beautiful she is. It

116
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: might have turned the head of anyone else, but poor Cinderella,

117
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: who was so used to being treated poorly, took it

118
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: all in stride, as if it were something happening in

119
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: a dream. Her triumph was complete. Even the old king

120
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 1: said to the Queen that never since her Majesty's young

121
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: days had he seen such a charming and elegant person.

122
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: All the court ladies looked her over eagerly clothes and

123
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: all determined to have theirs made. The Next day of

124
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: exactly the same pattern, the king's son himself led her

125
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: out to dance, and she danced so gracefully that he

126
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: admired her more and more. Indeed, at supper, which was

127
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: luckily very early, his admiration quite took away his appetite.

128
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: Cinderella herself, with her normal shyness, sought out her sisters,

129
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 1: placed herself beside them, and offered them all sorts of attention, which,

130
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: coming as they had supposed from a stranger and so

131
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: magnificent a lady, almost overwhelmed them with delight. While she

132
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: was talking with them, she heard the cloth strike a

133
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: quarter to twelve, and, saying a polite goodbye to the

134
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: royal family, she re entered her carriage, escorted tenderly by

135
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: the King's son, and arrived in safety at her own door.

136
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: There she found her godmother, who smiled approval, and of

137
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,920
Speaker 1: whom she begged permission to go to a second ball

138
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: the following night, to which the Queen had earnestly invited her.

139
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 1: While she was talking, the two sisters were heard knocking

140
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 1: at the gate, and the fairy godmother vanished, leaving Cinderella

141
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: sitting in the chimney corner, rubbing her eyes and pretending

142
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 1: to be very sleepy. Ah, cried the oldest sister meanly.

143
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,680
Speaker 1: It has been the most delightful ball, And there was

144
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: present the most beautiful princess I ever saw, who was

145
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 1: so exceedingly polite to us. Both was she said Cinderella indifferently,

146
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: And who might she be? Nobody knows, though everybody would

147
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 1: give their eyes to know, especially the King's son. Indeed,

148
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: replied Cinderella a little more interested. I should like to

149
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: see her. Miss Juliet, that was the older sister's name.

150
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 1: Will you not let me go tomorrow and lend me

151
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: your yellow gown that you wear on Sundays? What lend

152
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,959
Speaker 1: my yellow gown to a cinder girl? I am not

153
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: so crazy? As that, at which refusal Cinderella did not complain,

154
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: for if her sister really had lent her the gown,

155
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: she would have been considerably embarrassed. The next night came

156
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 1: and the two young ladies, richly dressed in different outfits,

157
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: went to the ball. Cinderella, more splendidly attired and beautiful

158
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: than ever, followed them shortly after. Now remember, twelve o'clock

159
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: was her godmother's parting speech, and she thought she certainly should.

160
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: But the prince's attentions to her were greater even than

161
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 1: the first evening, and in the delight of listening to

162
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: his pleasant conversation, time slipped by unnoticed. While she was

163
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: sitting beside him on a lovely bench and looking at

164
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: the moon from under a branch of orange blossoms, she

165
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: heard a clock strike the first stroke of twelve. She

166
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: jumped up and ran away as lightly as a deer. Amazed,

167
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 1: the prince followed but could not catch Instead, he missed

168
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: his lovely princess all together, and only saw running out

169
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: of the palace doors a cinder dressed girl whom he

170
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: had never seen before, and of whom he certainly would

171
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: never have taken the least notice of Cinderella arrived at

172
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: home breathless and weary, tired and cold, without carriage or

173
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: footman or coachman, the only remainder of her evenings being

174
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: one of her little glass slippers, the other she had

175
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: dropped in the ballroom as she ran away. When the

176
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: two sisters returned, they were full of this strange story.

177
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: How the beautiful lady had appeared at the ball more

178
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 1: beautiful than ever, and enchanted everyone who looked at her,

179
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: And how as the clock was striking twelve, she had

180
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: suddenly risen up and ran through the ballroom, disappearing no

181
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: one knew how or where, and dropping one of her

182
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: glass slippers behind her in her flight. How the king's

183
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: son had remained heartbroken until he chanced to pick up

184
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: the little glass slipper, which he carried away in his pocket,

185
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: and was seen to take it out continually and look

186
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: at it affectionately, with the air of a man very

187
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: much in love. In fact, from his behavior during the

188
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 1: remainder of the evening, all the court and royal family

189
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 1: were convinced that he was deeply in love with the

190
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: wearer of the little glass slipper. Cinderella listened in silence

191
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: turning her face to the kitchen fire, and perhaps it

192
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: was that which made her look so rosy. But nobody

193
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 1: else ever noticed or admired her at home, so it

194
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 1: did not matter, And next morning she went to her

195
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: weary work again, just as before. A few days after,

196
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 1: the whole city was attracted by the sight of a

197
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: man going round with a little glass slipper in his hand,

198
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 1: publishing with a flourish of trumpets that the King's son

199
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: ordered this to be fitted on the foot of every

200
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: lady in the kingdom, and that he wished to marry

201
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 1: the lady whom it fit best, or to whom it

202
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: and the other slipper belonged. Princesses, duchesses, countesses and simple

203
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:58,120
Speaker 1: gentlewomen all tried it on, but being a fairy slipper,

204
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: it fit nobody, and beside nobody could produce its other slipper,

205
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: which lay all the time safely in the pocket of

206
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: Cinderella's old work gown. At last the man came to

207
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: the house of the two sisters, and though they well

208
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: knew neither of them was the beautiful lady, they made

209
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: every attempt to get their clumsy big feet into the

210
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: glass slipper, but with no luck. Let me try it on,

211
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 1: said Cinderella from the chimney corner. What you cried, the others,

212
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: bursting into shouts of laughter, But Cinderella only smiled and

213
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: held out her hand. Her sisters could not stop her,

214
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: since the command was that every young maiden in the

215
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: city should try on the slipper, in order that no

216
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: chance might be left untried. For the prince's heart was

217
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: nearly broken, and his father and mother were afraid that,

218
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: though a prince, he would actually fade away from his

219
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 1: love of the beautiful, unknown lady. So the man told

220
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: Cinderella to sit down on a three legged stool in

221
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:36,400
Speaker 1: the kitchen, and himself put the slipper on her pretty

222
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 1: little foot, which it fit exactly. She then drew from

223
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:47,919
Speaker 1: her pocket the fellow slipper, which she also put on

224
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 1: and stood up for with the touch of the magic shoes,

225
00:19:54,640 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 1: all her dress was changed. Likewise, no longer the poor

226
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: despised cinder girl, but the beautiful lady, whom the king's

227
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: son loved. Her sisters recognized her at once, Filled with astonishment,

228
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: mingled with no little alarm, they threw themselves at her feet,

229
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 1: begging her forgiveness for all their former unkindness. She rose

230
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 1: up and hugged them, told them she forgave them with

231
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: all her heart and only hoped they would always love her.

232
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 1: Then she left with the man to the King's palace

233
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: and told her whole story to His Majesty and the

234
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 1: royal family, who were not in the least surprised, for

235
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: everybody believed in fairies, and everybody longed to have a

236
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: fe mary godmother for the young prince. He found her

237
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:11,679
Speaker 1: even more lovely and lovable than ever, and insisted upon

238
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: marrying her immediately. Cinderella said yes, and never went home again.

239
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: But she sent for her two sisters to come to

240
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: the palace, and with her. The agreement of all parties

241
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 1: helped them to marry shortly after. To two rich gentlemen

242
00:21:36,240 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 1: of the court. Good night, sleep tight, and I am

243
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: all stand still, I said through my and then on

244
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 1: I sway the fat sink
