THE KING & THE PAINTER

 

THE KING AND THE PAINTER

Once there was a king who liked to paint pictures, but his pictures were bad and nobody liked them. The people to whom the king showed his pictures were afraid of him, and they said that the pictures were good.

One day the king showed the pic­tures to a great painter who lived in that country and said, "Tell me, what do you think of my pictures? Am I a good painter or not?"

The painter looked at the king's pictures and said, "My king, the pic­tures are bad and you will never be a good painter."

The king was very angry and sent the painter to prison.

After two years the king wanted to see the painter again. When the painter came, the king gave him a good dinner and said, "Now you are a free man and I am your friend. Look at my new pictures and say if you like them now."

The painter did not answer. He turned to the soldier who was in the room and said, "Take me back to pri­son."
