The Princess On The Road
-Kathleen Conyngham Greene
The play is about a princess .She is the
newly wedded wife of prince Florimund who
rules that territory. She did not like the formal
life of the palace.
She disguises herself as a peasant girl and leaves the palace secretly.
After traveling twelve miles on foot she enters a village.
The princess feels thirsty and hungry. But here is no
one to help her. A child tells her that villagers have gone
for harvesting.
She goes into a cottage and brings milk and bread.
Soon the villagers arrive there and accuse her of
stealing their things. She tells them that she is the princess of that land and asks them to drive her back to the
Town.
The village folk laugh at her and do not believe her to be
the princess. They call her thief and vagabond.
Meanwhile a Juggler arrives there. The villagers greet him respectfully. He
recognizes the princess and warns the villagers to behave properly. They do not believe him and demand some
proof of her position.
The princess sings and dances to prove her status but they are not
convinced.
At last the Juggler suggests to the princess to show them the juggling of balls. She spins six
apples in the air without letting them fall.
The villagers are wonder-struck at her
marvellous performance.
They offer a carriage to take her back
home.
