the king
Once upon a time there was a peasant who had money and land enough, but as rich as he was, there was still something missing from his happiness: He had no children with his wifeStainless Steel Pipesilk roadjiuzhaigougreat walltibet travel. Often when he went to the city with the other peasants, they would mock him and ask him why he had no children. He finally became angry, and when he returned home, he said, "I will have a child, even if it is a hedgehog."
   Then his wife had a baby, and the top half was a hedgehog and the bottom half a boy. When she saw the baby, she was horrified and said, "Now see what you have wished upon us!"The man said, "It cannot be helped. The boy must be baptizedtrailerbeijing tourbuy AOC accountswholesale jordanscheap jordans, but we cannot ask anyone to be his godfather."The woman said, "And the only name that we can give him is Hans-MyHedgehog."Now it happened that another king came this way with his servants and messengers. He too got lost and did not know the way back home because the forest was so large.
He too heard the beautiful music from afar, and asked one of his messengers to go and see what it was and where it was coming from. The messenger ran to the tree where he saw Hans-My-Hedgehog astride the cock-roostercheap nike shoesreplica prada shoescheap handbagscheap nike shoxjordan sneakers. The messenger asked him what he was doing up there. When he was baptized, the pastor said, "Because of his quills he cannot be given an ordinary bed." So they put a little straw behind the stove and laid him in it. And he could not drink from his mother, for he would have stuck her with his quills. He lay there behind the stove for eight years, and his father grew tired of him, and thought, "if only he would diecheap gucci shoesnike sneakersrunescape accountrunescape accountsRS account." But he did not die, but just lay there. Now it happened that there was a fair in the city, and the peasant wanted to go. He asked his wife what he should bring her."A little meat, some bread rolls, and things for the household," she said. Then he asked the servant girl, and she wanted a pair of slippers and some fancy stockings.Finally, he also said, "Hans-My-Hedgehog, what would you like?""Father," he said, "bring me some bagpipes."
   When the peasant returned home he gave his wife what he had brought for her, meat and bread rolls. Then he gave the servant girl the slippers and fancy stockings. And finally he went behind the stove and gave Hans-My-Hedgehog the bagpipesadidas shoesdigital thermometerplastic cardplastic cardsLord of the rings Accounts.When Hans-My-Hedgehog had them, he said, "Father, go to the blacksmith's and have my cock-rooster shod, then I will ride away and never again come back." The father was happy to get rid of him, so he had his rooster shod.
   In the forest the rooster flew into a tall tree with him. There he sat and watched over the donkeys and the pigs. He sat there for years, until finally the herd had grown large. His father knew nothing about him. While sitting in the treetoothbrushtouch screenair coolerCoffee tablebronze statue, he played his bagpipes and made beautiful music.One day a king came by. He was lost and heard the music. He was amazed to hear it, and sent a servant to look around and see where it was coming from. He looked here and there but only saw a little animal sitting high in a tree. It looked like a rooster up there with a hedgehog sitting on it making the music.The king said to the servant that he should ask him why he was sitting there, and if he knew the way back to his kingdombuy gold wowworld of warcraft goldair force 1cap machinesolar water heater. Then Hans-My-Hedgehog climbed down from the tree and told him that he would show him the way if the king would promise in writing to give him the first thing that greeted him at the royal court upon his arrival home.The king thought, "I can do that easily enough. Hans-My-Hedgehog cannot understand writing, and I can put down what I want to."
   Then the king took pen and ink and wrote something, and after he had done so, Hans-My-Hedgehog showed him the way, and he arrived safely at home. His daughter saw him coming from afar, and was so overjoyed that she ran to meet him and kissed himD&G shoesclassic uggHome furniturecheapest wow goldDining table. He thought about Hans-My-Hedgehog and told her what had happened, that he was supposed to have promised the first thing that greeted him to a strange animal that rode a rooster and made beautiful music.

The princess was happy about this, and said that it was a good thing, for she would not have gone with him in any event.Hans-My-Hedgehog tended his pigs, and the pigs had more pigs, until there were so many that the whole forest was full. Then Hans-My-Hedgehog let his father know that they should empty out all the stalls in the village, because he was coming with such a large herd of pigs that everyone who wanted to would be able to take part in the slaughter.Then the king told the princess to go out to him, in order to save his life and her own as well.

She climbed aboard and Hans-My-Hedgehog took his place beside her with his rooster and bagpipes. They said farewell and drove off.
