+“You see,” said Father Dante, “it is all foolishness. You are still of a hideous shape.”
+“But Father,” pleaded Sonny Benny, “you have not done what King said. You tell me that I am the same, but horse said that you must speak of me and think of me as being straight.”
+He begged so hard that they do as King said that Father Dante promised him that they would. Mother Dante half believed it and Father Dante was a man of his word; every time they looked at Sonny Benny they saw him beautiful.
+It was not many days after that, when they had almost reached their destination, and had stopped before a public well, that Sonny Benny, without waiting for his father to help him as he usually did, jumped off the horse’s back and ran for a drink of water.

You must think good thoughts all the day. You must see in others all that you desire in yourself. And now I must leave you,” concluded King, “and go back to my own country. You will carry on my work. That will be my gift to Father and Mother
