Binder2王子和贫儿.(The.Prince.and.the.Pauper)
The Prince and the Pauper
Chapter 01 The Prince and the Pauper are born
Two boys were born on the same day.
Edward Tudor was born in Westminster Palace.
His father was the King of England.
Everybody blessed the birth of the Prince of Wales.
The other child was Tom Canty.
He was born in a family of paupers.
Nobody blessed the birth of the child.
Tom’s family lived in a small, dirty place in London.
Tom had to beg every day, but he was a bright boy.
Father Andrew taught Tom how to read and write.
He told Tom charming tales about kings and princes.
“How wonderful it would be to be a prince!
I would like to see one some times,” Tom said to himself.

“Tom, tell me about the life of people outside the palace,” said Edward.
Tom talked about running in the street and swimming in the river.
“Oh, it sounds so wonderful!
I want to take off these clothes and swim in the river like you,” said Edward.
“I want to wear clothes like you,” said Tom.
A few minutes later they stood in front of a mirror.
They looked so alike.
“Well, stay here until I come back.
That’s a command!” said Edward.
He hid something in a hurry and ran out of the room.
Edward ran to the gate and shouted, “Open the gate!”
The soldier hit Edward on the ear.
“Get out of here, you pauper!” shouted the soldier.
“I am the Prince of Wales!” cried out Edward.
A crowd of beggars surrounded him and laughed.
Edward began to run and got lost.
Night fell and he was cold and alone.
Suddenly, a drunken man grabbed him and said,
“Where have you been?”
“Oh, are you his father?” cried Edward.
“His father
