One day a stranger came the city. It was very early in… the morning and yet there were many people in… the streets. He asked a man where all the people were going to, and the man told the stranger about Atlanta and the races. The stranger was surprised. "No woman, " he said, "will take my life from… me. "

The stranger went on… and walked for a long time along the streets. When he returned to… the gate of… the palace, he was covered in… dust. The porter looked at his dirty clothes and hesitated. But the stranger said to… him that he was the king's son, and the porter allowed him to go into… the palace.

And the young man entered the palace, where they gave … him water to wash himself and new clothes. When Atlanta saw a stranger at … the table that day, she turned on her eyes, because… she was sure he came to run in the race with her … the next morning. At first the guests were rather silent, but the stranger talked with… so much humour that soon there was a smile on… the faces of… all at … the table. After the meal, the king came to the stranger. "Sir, " he said, "your name and country are still unknown to us, but we invite you to stay as long as you like. "

"I thank you, " answered the stranger, "but I cannot tell … you my name, and I cannot stay in the house of any man for more than one night. I must start before/at dawn.
