CINDERELLA.
This proclamation caused a great sensation. Ladies of
all ranks were permitted to make a trial of the slipper ;
but it was of no use. Cinderella now said, " Let me try
perhaps it may fit me." It slipped on in a moment.
Great was the vexation of the two sisters at this ; but
what was their astonishment when Cinderella took the
fellow slipper out of her pocket !
At that moment the godmother appeared, and touched
Cinderella's clothes with her wand. Her sisters then saw
that she was the beautiful lady they had met at the ball,
and, throwing themselves at her feet, craved her forgive-
ness.
A short time after, she was married to the Prince, to
the intense gratification of the whole Court.
