WOODCUTTER (coming towards him). I believe I could help your Royal Highness.
BLUE PRINCE. Do.
WOODCUTTER (doubtfully). It would perhaps be not Quite fair to the others.
BLUE PRINCE. Don't mind.
WOODCUTTER. Well then, listen. (He pauses a moment and looks round to see that they are alone.)
BLUE PRINCE. I'm listening.
WOODCUTTER. If you come back in five minutes, you will see a beggar woman sitting here. She will ask you for a crust of bread. You must give it to her, for it is the way His Majesty has chosen of testing your kindness of heart.
BLUE PRINCE (feeling in his pockets). No bread.
WOODCUTTER. I will give you some.
BLUE PRINCE. Do.
